“Ok, sir.” Paul said, turning to leave the study.

But as soon as he opened the door, he was startled to see two people standing outside. “Mr. Fabian, Mr. Javier, when did you

arrive?”

Javier smirked, a mischievous glint in his eye. “Oh, not long ago. Just slipped in right behind you. It’s been a couple of minutes now, wouldn’t you say?”

With that, he pushed Paul aside and strode towards Scott, casually saying, “Scott, your door’s soundproofing isn’t the best. We caught every word of your conversation.”

“It seems that Mr. Rosewood doesn’t want us here,” he added, emphasizing his words.

Scott jumped up quickly, plastering a nervous smile on his face. “You must be mistaken, Mr. Javier. I’m just feeling under the weather lately and didn’t want to risk passing anything to you, so I said I wasn’t home.”

“Scott, that’s quite the lie,” Javier retorted coolly. “Don’t forget, I’m a doctor. From what I can see, you look perfectly healthy

to me.”

Scott’s face went pale at Javier’s comment. He wiped the sweat off his forehead but couldn’t muster a word in response.

Javier gave him a sidelong glance, smirking slightly. “You know what they say–Guests are always welcome! Even if you don’t want to welcome us, you can’t refuse us a seat and a cup of coffee, right?”

Scott finally got the hint and quickly added, “Mr. Fabian, Mr. Javier, please, have a seat. I apologize for the misunderstanding.”

He turned to the butler, barking, “What are you standing there for? Go brew some coffee.”

“Yes, sir.” Paul bowed and hurried off.

The Evans brothers settled onto the couch. One looked serious, while the other wore an expression of irreverent amusement. If it weren’t for their expressions, no one would guess they were brothers.
