The Unveiled Rose novel Chapter 244

Suzy, who was holding Penelope, overheard what I said and turned around to say, "We wouldn't want to trouble you."

"It's no trouble at all." As Zane suddenly remembered that he had some matters to attend to, he remarked, "I happen to have something to take care of, so I can't go home with them."

Hearing what he said, Suzy offered with a smile. "I can take them instead."

"Thank you," Zane thanked her before pulling me aside. After hesitating for a while, he finally said, "Be careful on your way home."

I huffed, "How old do you think I am? Of course, I will. Don't worry."

After a moment, I added, "You should be careful, too."

Zane only smiled when he heard that last sentence. "Alright."

…

Suzy drove the car, and since the two children wanted to whisper to each other in the backseat, I had to sit in the passenger seat.

Right then, Suzy spoke, her words clearly hinting at something, "Mr. Huxham seems to treat you better than most people."

I didn't deny it, saying, "Maybe it's because Willow refers to me as her mommy, so in his eyes, I might be considered his family. That's probably why he's kinder to me, I suppose."

Other than that, I couldn't think of any other explanation.

"Is that so?" Suzy asked with a smile but didn't say much else after that.

After all, this was someone else's relationship. She was worried that saying something inappropriate might cause trouble.

…

When Zachary got into the car, Harry handed him his phone. "I found a comic online today, and it seems like your mom drew it. It mainly records her experiences with Willow and her family."

Zachary casually took the phone. Looking at the comic on the screen, he awkwardly said, "I don't know a lot of the words here."

Harry took the phone back before earnestly reading out the text of the comic to Zachary.

As Zachary listened, he felt so distressed that he couldn't stop his tears from falling. "So Mommy was this miserable when she first left home."

They rarely contacted each other, and even if Zane did, it was about Willow's matters.

Zane explained unhurriedly, "You've been talking to Willow every day. You must have noticed that she has gradually become comfortable with normal conversations with you, right?"

Milton immediately opened the door wide to invite Zane inside. "Yes."

Zane didn't refuse his invitation. "After talking to Annalise, we both think that it's time to bring you two over to Willow's side so that you can be around her.

"She can start talking to you two through the dolls in her room, but she'll converse with you normally elsewhere. This way, she might recover faster."

Milton was taken aback. Being able to live in the same space as Willow was a dream come true for him. "Then, should we start packing now?"

Zane calmly answered, "You don't have to. I can have my housekeeper prepare new clothes for you."

"That'd be such a waste of money!" Right after Milton spoke, he quickly raised his voice to yell, "Honey!"

Dorothy answered when she heard him, "Yes?"
