Chapter 137 Jessica casually picked up the card and opened it.

Inside were only two words.

"I'm sorry." Jessica sat beside Steven and asked, "Why are you apologizing to me?" "For the past few days, I've focused all my attention on Annalise." Steven held Jessica's hand. "As a result, I neglected you." "Jessica, you are the woman I've loved since childhood. Even though I was married to Annalise, my heart only holds you." "I feel very guilty..." Steven paused for a moment. "I should cherish you and treat you well." Gavin said that as long as he focused all his attention on Jessica, he wouldn't think about Annalise anymore. Steven wanted to see if this method could work.

"It's okay." Jessica shook her head. "Steven, I don't mind." As she spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks. Her appearance, like a flower in the rain, was heart-wrenching.

It was strange. Steven felt no pity whatsoever seeing her cry.

In fact, Annalise's face even flashed through his mind.

When Annalise cried, she said nothing, her eyes brimming with tears as she quietly gazed at him.

Steven thought of this scene and felt a sharp pain in his chest. He forced himself to pull back his thoughts and then wrapped his arms around Jessica. "But I do mind. Jessica, I will make it up to you twice as great." Jessica bit her lip before realizing Steven couldn't see her expression. She nodded heavily. "Okay." Steven furrowed his brows and let go of her.

What was wrong? Why didn't he feel happy holding Jessica? Not only that, but a voice in his heart reminded him not to get too close to her. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to go back.

Jessica asked in confusion, "What's wrong?" Steven didn't want Jessica to notice his abnormality, so he smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just haven't seen Zachary. Where is he?" Jessica was caught off guard by the question and looked at Cody.

Cody quickly replied, "He should have been back with Harry." "I'll go check on him." Steven stepped away from Jessica, finally feeling a bit more relaxed. "You two, think about what you want to eat later." Jessica smiled sweetly. "Okay!" Steven knocked on Zachary's bedroom door. "Zachary." There was no answer.

Steven opened the door and saw the bedroom was pitch dark. He turned on the light, and it was empty.

Steven's mind went blank.

Wasn't Zachary home? Where could he have gone? Steven immediately called Harry.

Harry answered, "Mr. Pelham?" Steven babbled, "Where's Zachary?"

"He said he wasn't feeling well and wanted to go for a walk," Harry m walk Haro m explained. So I took him out for a stroll."

Steven sighed with relief after confirming that Zachary was not in trouble. Please give the phone to Zachary." "Okay," Harry complied.

Zachary took the phone. "Dad."

Steven asked seriously, "Why aren't you coming hthis this late? Can't you at least givea heads-up? Do you E know..." "I miss Mommy," Zachary interrupted. "So I asked the driver to follow her car." Steven suddenly found himself at a loss for words.

Zachary continued, "This way, I can spend more twith Mommy." It took Steven a long moment to regain his voice. "Do you needto cand keep you company?"
