The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 804

"Our company is going through a bit of a crisis right now, and my wife and I can't handle it ourselves. We were hoping Casper could come back and help us out. However, he's refusing to return," Gary explained.

He was careful not to sound too demanding, afraid that Zane might take offense. "I was wondering if you could convince Casper to come back?"

Zane listened and quickly figured out the situation. After Casper made his stance clear to his family, they were still trying to persuade him to return. Since they couldn't, they were now turning to Zane for help.

Having worked with Casper, Zane knew exactly how talented and capable he was. Keeping Casper at their company was nothing but beneficial. There was no way Zane was going to hand over a talent to Gary foolishly.

Zane replied coolly, "I'm sorry. I don't involve myself in my employees' personal matters."

Gary's expression darkened. "Zane, I'd advise you not to do this the hard way."

Zane raised an eyebrow, amused. "Oh?"

Was Gary threatening him? Zane was almost curious to see what Gary thought he could do.

Gary pressed on, "He's my son—"

"That doesn't matter to me," Zane interrupted, his tone turning icy. "And let me remind you, the only reason I'm even entertaining this call is out of respect for Casper. But I'm a busy man. I don't have time to waste on this."

When Zane didn't immediately comply, Gary grew impatient. "If you don't cooperate, I'll go public and expose your behavior."
