Zachary sat in the car, staring at the brightly lit vi.


    What were they doing now? Were they having dinner? Or was Annalise gently holding Willow in her arms, watching TV together? Then, as the story unfolded, would she exin some profound lessons? Just thinking about Annalise, who had once unconditionally given everything for him, now pouring all her patience and love into others...


    It made his heart ache, as if it were being cut with a knife.


    Holding the steering wheel, Harry nced at Zachary through the rearview mirror. Noticing that Zachary was in a bad mood, he asked, "Shall we head home?" "Sure."


    By the time Rowena arrived at the vi, it was already 9:00 pm.


    Willow had finished washing up and was lying in bed on time. I was sitting at the edge of the bed, reading her a storybook.


    Rowena strode into the living room and saw Zane sitting there. She looked around as if searching for something.


    Zane put down the book in his hands. "Mom, who are you looking for?"


    "Where''s the nanny assigned to take care of Willow?" Rowena asked.


    She had heard from Sasha that Zane might have caught feelings for Annalise. Coupled with her suspicions about the two, she came over specifically to confirm whether a spark of love had ignited between them. Zane replied casually, "She''s putting Willow to sleep."This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    This implied that Annalise was mostly at home apanying Willow, which meant they definitely didn''t have time to develop a romantic rtionship.


    Rowena let out a sigh of relief.


    "Mom." Zane pointed to the couch across from him. "Please sit. I have something to discuss with you."


    Rowena sat down, her gaze fixed on Zane as she contemted whether hisck of feelings for Annalise meant she could continue introducing more girls to him.


    Zane''s voice was calm as he said, "I remember I told you before not to say anything unnecessary in front of Willow."


    When he heard Willow talk about the time her biological parents passed away in the car that day... The things Rowena said to her made him want to have a serious talk with her.


    Since Rowena had approached him, he would take advantage of this opportunity.


    Rowena asked in confusion, "I''ve been listening. I haven''t said anything since then."


    "Is that so?" Zane''s voice grew colder. "I want to know what kind of mindset you had when you said that to Willow... That her parents died because of her and that her grandparents hate her, too." Rowena was taken aback. How did he know these things?


    Zane stood up. "She''s only five years old. When her parents had the ident, she was only two or three, Mom!"


    Rowena, feeling guilty, retorted, "Was I wrong in saying that?"


    "Of course you were!" Zane raised his voice. "Did she cause the ident?"


    Rowena did not answer directly. "But she was the only one who survived."


    "So?" Zane looked at Rowena with disappointment. "You''re just going to ce all the me on her?"


    Rowena clearly hadn''t expected Zane to be this angry. She countered, "What else should I do? I''m honestly regretting things today. Why didn''t she die in that car ident?"
