The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 560

Zane's caption read, "Little moments."

Zane was normally stoic and reserved, and he hardly ever posted on social media before now. When his photos began garnering attention online, his followers commented, "Is the little girl your daughter, Mr. Huxham?" He replied, "Yes."

Zane gave me another look, his eyes glittering with mild amusement.
