The Unveiled Rose novel Chapter 131

After much effort, Yvonne finally calmed down. She fished out her phone and called Jessica. "You need to submit your work as soon as possible."

Jessica asked, "Why?"

Yvonne took a deep breath before explaining, "I want to promote your work as soon as possible to prove to Zane that my judgment is correct!"

Jessica perceptively picked up on Yvonne's bad mood. "He still wants you to prioritize Annalise's work?"

"No." Yvonne's expression gradually turned fierce. "He won't even allow me to see him in his office."

Jessica didn't know how to respond to that.

Yvonne snorted. "I believe that if I produce a hit comic, he'll definitely recognize my abilities and might even come to me on his own!"

Jessica stayed silent for a moment, then responded, "I'll get started now."

"Alright." Yvonne hung up the phone, feeling somewhat better.

…

Zane planned to have Willow interact with her grandparents first, so he called Willow's grandfather.

"Oh, Zane."

Willow's maternal grandfather was Milton Johnson. He was only in his early 50s, but his voice sounded incredibly worn. "To be honest, if you hadn't contacted us, we were thinking of reaching out to you. I heard your mother wants you to get married."

Zane didn't know how and when this news reached their ears. "Yes."

Milton asked with a smile, "Then, you won't have time to take care of Willow anymore, right? Why not send Willow to stay with us?"

After all, Willow was Milton's daughter's only child, and he and his wife loved her, too.

Zane didn't give a straight answer. Instead, he stated, "Willow can now communicate with me normally."

"A while after that, Willow even started talking to me because Annalise encouraged her to."

Milton tried to digest the information Zane had shared.

After a pause, Zane continued, "Recently, Willow has been bullied at school. Since she can't speak, she has suffered a lot. Annalise and I have been discussing ways to help her recover as quickly as possible.

"We came up with the idea that, since she's willing to talk to those close to her, like me, maybe she'd be willing to talk to you, as you also care about her deeply. So, I wanted to ask if you'd be willing to come over and chat with her."

Milton quickly answered, "Of course I'd be willing. It's just that my wife is in poor health and is in the hospital right now. I can't leave her side."

When Zane heard this, he decisively said, "Then, I'll bring Willow to see you after school this afternoon. Which hospital are you at?"

Milton hurriedly sent the hospital's name and some other information to Zane.

The truth was that Milton also missed Willow.
