The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 247

Would Annalise also be afraid that Zachary might say or do the wrong things again? Zachary hesitated for a long time but decided to buy the other two dolls as well in the end.

After making the payment, he left a comment in Annalise's comment section, "Mommy, please update soon, but make sure to also take care of yourself and don't overwork!"

After replying, he felt a bit uneasy. He wondered if she would get mad if she knew he wrote that. He anxiously refreshed the comment section.

To his surprise, many others had posted similar comments.

He let out a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt a pang of sadness.

Zachary lowered his gaze.

The truth was, Annalise had also drawn comics for him back when she stayed home to take care of him. At that time, he thought Annalise was an embarrassment, and this was what hurt him the most.

He had told her that her drawings were ugly and that she should stop. He also said that if other people knew about it, they would definitely laugh at him.

Annalise had finally found people who truly appreciated her comics now, so he believed he should be happy for her.
