The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 167

Zane didn't answer me directly. Instead, he said, "It seems like her attitude toward you isn't that great. Why are you still willing to be friends with her?"

"She doesn't have much malice toward me," I answered after thinking seriously. "Mainly because I suddenly realized I don't really have any friends in this city. Sasha is the first." Zane was shocked.

"You probably don't know, but I came to this completely unfamiliar city for Steven," I explained calmly. "Then, I married him. I never had the chance to work or make friends, and then I got pregnant.

All my time was filled up. Naturally, I didn't have the mood to consider other things.

I looked at Zane. "So, I'm really happy that Sasha is willing to be my friend."

Now that she had finally stepped out, everything was starting to improve.

He knew he couldn't selfishly ruin her friendship with others.
