Otis watched as Steven's figure disappeared, and the corners of his lips curled into a knowing smile. He was certain that his plan would succeed.
Back in his office, Steven sat down and carefully mulled over his conversation with Otis.
Otis had promised to make Annalise reconcile with him.

After much hesitation, Steven finally picked up his phone and dialed Zane.
"Hello?" "What do you want?" Zane replied coldly.

To Annalise, Steven was nothing more than a part of the past. She had been hurt by him too deeply.
No matter what Steven did now, there was no way she would ever go back to him. So, there was no need for Zane to dwell on it.
As for the other group, Zane figured Annalise had to be responsible for that. He turned his head, his gaze falling in her direction.
Zane had always believed that even though Annalise was a woman, she was in no way inferior to a man.
Not only was she constantly preoccupied with her work, but she also had a sharp instinct for detecting hidden dangers and handling them decisively.
