The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 489

Rowena sat on the living room couch, her close friends gathered around her.

She took a slow sip of her coffee, then said, "I told you guys about what Chloe did the other day, right? You need to help me figure out how to get back at her. I swear, if I keep holding onto this anger, I'm going to lose it!" "Chill. You don't have to do anything later. Just sit back and let us handle it," Jasmine Walker said quickly. "Once we post about what she did, everyone will start calling her out. We won't even have to do the dirty work ourselves." Rowena's eyebrows shot up, clearly excited. "Really?"

"Totally," Jasmine said, her tone firm.

Just then, a knock came at the door. Rowena let out a breath of relief, then turned toward the door with a grin. "Looks like she's here."

Jasmine got up and went to open the door. Chloe stepped in, pausing for a second when she saw Jasmine.

Then, she walked over to Rowena with a smile. "Your friend's here?"

"She and I are heading out later," Rowena said, her tone relaxed. "She heard you and I are really good at keeping our daughters-in-law in check, so she wanted some advice."
