The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 768

Steven couldn't promise Jessica that he would never part ways with her and Cody—after all, that was impossible. Steven had made up his mind that the woman he loved was Annalise, and he couldn't allow himself to be swayed anymore.

After a long pause, Steven said, "You're right."

Jessica hadn't expected that answer from Steven. In disbelief, she sat up and stared at him.

Steven continued, "Should I still bring him out tomorrow?"

"Yeah. Otherwise, he'll be disappointed. After all, you promised him."

At that moment, Jessica realized all her tricks had stopped working on Steven.

Steven said cooperatively, "Okay."

After getting Steven a set of clothes, Jessica led him to the master bedroom. She asked, "Do you plan to bunk with me tonight, or…?"

Steven shook his head when he heard that and said, "I'll sleep by myself. Otherwise, Annalise will get mad if she finds out."

But that worked out just fine for Jessica—she didn't want to sleep with Steven either.

Jessica nodded, saying, "I'll sleep in the guest room, then. Good night."

Then, she left the master bedroom and went into the guest room. After closing the door and turning on the lights, Jessica sat down, deep in thought.

This time, Steven's resolve seemed firmer than before. Not only did he keep a distance from Jessica, but he also showed reservations toward the baby—that meant Jessica's tricks no longer worked on Steven.
