[SKYLINE PLAZA: Dean's Villa]
Standing on the paver patio in front of the fire pit, Dean squinted slightly, the light from the flames dancing on his face, revealing an indescribable expression.
"Hello!" A voice from behind him broke the silence. "I see someone isn't in a good mood."
Finn casually sat down in a vacant seat with a glass of wine in hand, his eyebrows raised as he eyed Dean's back.
"So, I wasn't wrong?" he smirked meaningfully. "You are... in a terrible mood."
"The Prime Group accepted Zoren Pierson's request," said Dean quietly but clearly, making Finn nod in understanding.
"Well, that is a surprise! I thought Penny didn't want anything to do with you. Or did she perhaps... have a change of heart about you?" Finn tilted his head slightly to the side. "You've been pursuing her all your youth, after all. I hope her heart softened."
A chuckle followed Finn's assumption, but when Dean remained silent, Finn arched his right. brow.
"I see..." Finn smacked his lips. "So, it's not like that, huh? Well, I guess she did it to spite you. Why am I surprised?"
"Penny wouldn't do that." Slowly, Dean turned around to face his guest. "She would do things to spite me, but not to the extent of meddling with our family affairs,"
"If that's the case, then I guess it's a business decision, Finn shrugged. "The Prime Group is branching out, after all. And not many are happy about entering this part of the market. She already dominated the other side, and entering this one looks more like a monopoly. Who else could help her but Zoren Pierson?"
Dean casually walked over to another seat and settled into it. "I doubt it."
"And why is that?"
"Because she doesn't like complications."
