Zoren watched as Finn stormed out of his office after hearing what had happened to Nina. Shrugging as Penny abruptly ended the call—since she was with a distinguished client—Zoren leaned in, ready to take a sip of his tea.
But before he could, another knock came at the door.
He paused and looked up just as the door opened, revealing Dean.
"..." Zoren blinked, then glanced at his tea. He lifted it again, only to stop once more.
"Can I come to your brother's engagement with his beautiful fiancée?" Dean didn't beat around the bush, still standing a few steps from the couches.
Zoren slowly looked up at him, maintaining eye contact as he leaned in for another sip. But then, Dean clapped his hands and walked closer, taking a seat on the couch beside him.
