The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

"Steven has no morals!"

...

As night fell, the story gained momentum online. Soon, everyone following the news became aware of the shocking events that had unfolded in Steven's household.

Zachary, who was accused of deliberately provoking Jessica with a phone call, swiftly presented evidence to clear his name. The proof came in the form of home surveillance footage from the past thirty days.

The video revealed that Zachary had locked his phone away in a small cabinet at home since last month. It had remained there, untouched, ever since.

This revelation exposed the allegations against Zachary coercing Jessica as a complete hoax. The public started chastising Steven.

"Good grief. Is Steven a dimwit?"

"How can someone be so gullible? He listens to every word his mistress says without a shred of doubt!"

"Exactly! It's bad enough to believe her, but to charge in and strike his son without even asking questions?"
