[Pierson Family Meeting]

"You seem like you're looking for someone or waiting for someone. I assumed it was Dean. Was I wrong?"

Zoren knew exactly who William Pierson was waiting for, and the fact that he casually taunted him with such remarks only signaled that Jonathan wouldn't make it tonight.

'This smart bastard!' William's face twitched, his fist trembling lightly, his eyes fixed on Zoren. 'I knew it! It was suspicious how he welcomed Jonathan into the family so easily.'

This was what William had mentioned to Jonathan earlier: They shouldn't be complacent just because Zoren hadn't done or said anything overt. After all, Zoren wasn't the type to make things public, whether in front of an audience or privately; he operated in the shadows.

Zoren, on the other hand, smirked in satisfaction. His right eyebrow arched when he noticed someone joining the table, sitting just after Chunchun.

"Dean Pierson," he called, earning a glance from Dean as the latter slowed down to take his seat.

"Uncle." Dean smiled subtly, glancing at William. When he saw the color drain from William's face, his smile grew wider. "I'm sorry I'm late. I had some matters to attend to."

"More important than being here?" Zoren asked.

"Not more important per se... but it did require a bit of my time."

Zoren nodded in understanding. "I see." freewebnovel.com

"Thank you." Dean maintained his smile, bowing his head politely. His eyes snapped back to William, who cast him a bitter and sour look. "Uncle William, you don't seem well. Are you okay?"
