The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel 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."

"And the beautiful woman in the back—is she your wife?" someone asked.

Zane glanced at me before replying, "She will be."

He was dating Annalise now, but it was obvious he wanted more out of their relationship. He wanted them to move forward as a couple and become husband and wife.

The comments that poured in were more or less the netizens' sentimental musings. One of them wrote, "Mr. Huxham was single for so long that we were led to believe he was a workaholic who would never marry. In reality, he just hadn't met the right person until now."

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

However, one comment stood out from the congratulatory ones. It was from Steven, who had typed, "Did you get Annalise's consent before posting her pictures online?"

Zane did not reply to Steven immediately. Instead, his gaze darted to Annalise, who was nearby.

He noted the gentle look on her face as she humored Willow. She no longer looked as forlorn as she had when she first came to his home; she was radiating with confidence.

Only then did Zane respond, "How would you know if I didn't get her consent?"

Steven countered, "Has she agreed to go public with you?"

"We've been public for ages. Didn't you know?" Zane retorted curtly. He ignored Steven's reply after that and carried on enjoying the idyllic afternoon.
