NovelEnglishChapter 653 Having heard Steven's and Zachary's sides of the story, Zane considered both and said. "Zachary isn't wrong from where I stand. He anticipated what would happen and took precautions against it. He's shown admirable forethought and cup with a clever way to protect himself." Zane was admittedly impressed with the way Zachary handled this. If the little boy hadn't hurt Annalise so deeply before, he might even take him under his wing.
Alas, Zane would never keep someone who had hurt Annalise close to her-not even her own child.

The truth shows that you'll only listen to Jessica and believe her version of events. It's the reason why your wife left you and your company stocks took a plunge... That's the price you have to pay for your stupidity!" Enraged, Steven opened his mouth to snap ssense into Zachary.
However, Zane interjected, "He's right, Steven. As the head of a company, you shouldn't allow your emotions to affect your judgment. You shouldn't be so riled up by whatever Jessica said and pick a bone with someone without reason..." Maintaining a neutral front, Zane continued, "If you keep this up, how will you convince others that the company will thrive under your leadership?" Stumped, Steven found himself agreeing with Zane. As a man, he shouldn't be so boor-headed as to get worked up over a woman's words, be they lies or not. He should have had the brains to weigh the facts and make the right call.
If he couldn't even do that, was he even equipped to deal with his company's crisis? Now that his fight with Steven was resolved, Zachary couldn't bring himself to leave the Huxham residence. He was so used to spending talone with the robot at hthat he was reluctant to part ways with Annalise. He might never get to the sroom with her again in he wanted to stay a little longer.
But he didn't want to outstay his welcand annoy Annalise. He rose to his feet and said, "I should head home." Zane stood up as well. "Would you liketo give you a lift?" "No, thanks." Zachary gave Zane a mildly surprised look. He hadn't expected Zachary to be so civilized with him. "I can make my way hmyself." Zane acceded to this and merely walked Zachary to the door. He didn't turn back to the living room until he saw the little boy get into the car.
Steven stared at me, and I returned his gaze evenly. He looked as if he had just learned something new.as he asked, "Why didn't you say anything when Zachary and Dwere hashing things out?" Was he seriously turning onnow? I blinked at him in bewilderment. "What did you expectto say?" "I don't know. I just wasn't expecting you to be so calm about this," he said gruffly.
