Chapter 237

Zane walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling window. The lights in the yard were on, casting a calm, serene glow. He dialed Rowena's number.

Zane decided it was best to give Rowena a heads-up now. He didn't want her to make things difficult for Annalise if he eventually ended up with her. Rowena curiously asked, "Why are you calling so late? What's going on?"

Zane corrected her, "She's not a nanny. She's Willow's mom."

The confirmation made Rowena bristle. "Absolutely not! I won't agree to this!"
