Herman strode over, grinning. "Jonah, man, it's been ages!"

Only close friends called each other by their first names like that.

Jonah laughed. "Seriously, it has! The last time you were in the city, what, three years ago? You haven't changed a bit. Herman, you must be snacking on preservatives or something!"

They knocked fists, shared a quick smile, and pulled each other into a brief hug.

That was just how guys greeted each other-no fuss, no drama.

Herman's lips curled into a sly smile. "I'll send you a bottle of preservatives next time. My own secret formula."

Jonah feigned shock, then cracked up. "Getting married really changed you, huh? You never used to have jokes like that."

Herman waved someone over. "Come here, hon. Jonah, meet my wife-Anastasia. Anastasia, this is Jonah, CEO of Wisman Corporation."

Anastasia offered a gentle smile. "Mr. Wisman, thank you for coming to my daughter's birthday party. Welcome."
