The Useless Son-In-law is a God of War

Chapter 71

Zen closed the office door behind him, the quiet hum of the city outside barely breaking the silence of the room. His office, cold and impersonal, hadn’t seen much of him lately. Zen rarely spent time here. Everything important happened outside these four walls.

Just as he began to sit, there was a soft knock.

“Come in.”

Anna stepped inside with a tray in her hands, balancing two cups of coffee. She had an unusual air of calm around her, always steady. Her figure was small in comparison to the tall doorway, but her presence wasn’t.

“I didn’t expect to see you today,” Zen said with a smirk. “You’re a character I only see once in a while.”

Anna smiled warmly as she set the tray on his desk. “It’s my pleasure, sir. I try to stay out of the way unless needed.”

He picked up one of the cups, savoring the warmth in his hand. “Still, you manage to show up when it matters.”

Anna glanced at him, a twinkle of admiration in her eyes. “I’ve learned from the best.”

Zen raised an eyebrow, intrigued.
