Compared to the romantic ambiance in Raine Thompson's bedroom, the atmosphere in Zachary Thompson's study room was noticeably tenser.
When Jeremy Thompson entered Zachary Thompson's study, Zachary was reading a financial magazine. Seeing him, Zachary was slightly startled, then quickly gestured for him to sit and personally brewed some tea.
"Jeremy, it's rare for you to have time to sit with me, given you're mostly overseas. We brothers get few chances to meet, so let's take today to have a heart-to-heart talk," Zachary began, firmly establishing his position as the elder brother.
Jeremy lifted the tea and took a sip, then said indifferently, "I came to see my elder brother because there's something I want to ask about."
Zachary's eyebrows slightly raised, his mind involuntarily overlapping the photo of a woman named Anna Ainsworth he had seen in today's newspaper with the photo of Jeanette Warren from more than 20 years ago.
