The Unveiled Rose

Chapter 367



"What's wrong? Do you think she's vulnerable just because she has no one to back her up?" Zane questioned.

Steven quickly responded, "No."

Zane said with a disgusted tone, "It better not be."

He then hung up the phone.

...

I heard Zane's voice and slowly approached him. "Was that Steven on the phone just now?"

Zane had no intention of hiding anything from me. "Yes, after Jessica failed to stir up trouble and got criticized, she probably wasn't happy, so she called him to complain. He believed her."

He wrapped his arm around my waist as he spoke and pulled me to sit on his lap. "He just wants to stand up for Jessica."

I said, disgusted, "Are those two out of their minds?"

"Yeah." Zane gently stroked the back of my hand.

"I don't understand. He always protects Jessica, so where does he get the face to say he loves you?"

I scoffed and said, "I actually think he has no feelings for me. He's probably saying this to soften me and have me serve Jessica during her postpartum recovery." Zane asked, "Is he that outrageous?"

"Pretty much," I answered calmly. "At the time, I had just had a miscarriage and hadn't even been discharged from the hospital, yet he brought Jessica back home. "They even took the master bedroom that was supposed to be mine and had me sleeping in the guest room."

Zane had underestimated Steven's stupidity. "This is the first time I've seen such an outrageous man."

After his brief remark, he continued, "By the way, about Jessica frequently causing trouble for you lately. Do you need my help to handle it?"

"No need," I replied calmly. "If she wants to stir up trouble online, I'll just treat it as her helping me gain publicity.

"Anyway, no matter what she does, it will end up attracting more people to look at my work, and my merchandise sales will increase as a result. "This is a good thing for me."

I cupped Zane's face in my hands. "As for the nonsense she's saying, I won't even take it to heart."

Zane held my waist with his large hands. "Good. But if you come across something you can't handle, come to me."

"Okay." I rested on Zane's shoulder, suddenly feeling a great sense of security.

I had faced similar situations when I was with Steven. But back then, no one cared whether I was hurt.

It was at this moment that I suddenly realized that love means having someone by your side.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

I hugged Zane tightly. My heart seemed to warm up.

Zane gently patted my waist and asked, "It's noon. Would you like to go eat together?"

"Okay."

...

Yvonne was hiding around the corner of the stairs, watching Annalise and Zane walk into the stairwell.

She quickly called Jessica. "The two of them are going downstairs to eat!"

Jessica replied, "If they're together, afte Zane, Annalise

It's impossible toet

tionship like this."

Yvonne looked puzzled. "What should I do then?"

"Wait until Zane goes out alone, then contact me," Jessica said confidently.

"Okay."

Jessica turned to look out the window. Wasn't Zane the one who gave Annalise everything she had now?
