The atmosphere between the three of them was strange, and people around them had already sensed that something was off, quietly observing them.
Deano Zell was a rational man after all. He suppressed the anger and countless questions in his heart and said with difficulty through his dry throat, "I apologize, I must have mistaken you for someone else. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Deano Zell."
He reached out to shake Scarlett Glenn's hand, but before he could touch it, he was suddenly stopped by Ethan Herd.
Ethan Herd hugged Deano Zell's shoulder and dragged him forward, "Come on, show me around and introduce me to Helena. Since I'm here for her Coming of Age Ceremony, I should at least bring a gift."
Deano Zell stopped and said coldly, "Gifts can be given anytime. Right now, the most pressing matter is that we need to have a talk between the two of us."
Ethan Herd looked sideways into Deano Zell's cold eyes.
As their gazes met, sparks flew.
