NovelEnglishChapter 712 Otis, feeling his temper flare up from my words, shot a furious glare at Zane.
"Look at Annalise! How could a daughter speak to her father like this? She's completely disrespectful! She's unworthy of being a wife." Zane raised an eyebrow, unfazed. "But I actually like her just the way she is." I could see that Otis still refused to open the folder and look at its contents, so I took the matter into my own hands. I opened the folder, pulled the documents, and handed them to him.
He took the papers, glanced at them briefly, and muttered, "This is evidence of my company's mistakes. I saw this years ago—" Before he could finish his sentence, his expression turned solemn as he continued flipping through the pages.

"Even if you submit it now, it will not change anything. After all, the company you were with then is already long gone." Zane turned and looked atat that.
I continued, "I've known all along that your so-called competitor is actually one of your people. You set it up on purpose and hoped I would fall into your trap. As your daughter, I couldn't bear to see all your efforts go to waste. So I played along with your little game." The more I spoke, the more I realized how ridiculously accommodating I had been. I wasted my time, pretending to play a part for someone who had never cared for me, just to indulge a father I didn't even want.
I added, "I didn't want you to go through all this effort only to end up empty-handed and disappointed. Once you see the contents, you'll understand my good intentions. Yet, you still haven't looked. It's such a waste of my effort." Zane wanted to laugh but managed to hold it in. Instead, he casually remarked, "Look how loyal your daughter is." Otis gave a forced smile and said, "I don't see it that way. She'll use the stricks that she did onon you in the future. So, I don't think she's suited to be your wife. If you want to avoid trouble in the future, you'd better break up with her as soon as possible and find a woman from a wealthier famil to marry." I remained silent and looked at Zane.
He calmly replied, "But you see, we're already married. It was a decision I made after careful Rel.ne consideration. So, we're not likely to separate in the near future." Otis slammed his hand on the table and stood up.
Zane raised his chin, meeting his gaze from below.
Otis originally wanted to snap at Zane but then realized he couldn't afford to offend him. After a long silence, he finally turned and left.

Otis was gritting his teeth the entire way, seething with anger. He wished he could just get rid of Annalise once and for all. If she and Zane had just been dating, he might have been able to stir strouble and cause them to break up. However, they were married.
Zane was a cautious man. He wasn't likely to change his mind and divorce Annalise anytsoon.
