"Are you her father or my father because she brought this case to you? Do this, is everything fine at your home? There are things you interfere with, and you have no idea.
"Complete your home and leave me alone. That's my wife; leave her alone. Are you her father or mine? If you want her, take her. Stop bothering me," he lashed out.
