Before he even knocked on the door, there was a voice coming from inside.

"Come in. The door is not locked." The tone was calm but had a pulling effect as if it was trying to attract him.

"Hmm?" The middle-aged man frowned. He didn't expect Noel to kneel down that soon, so he asked, "I believe we haven't met yet. So, did your father tell you about me?"
