The Bentley drove gently onto the city's east side, stopping at the Meyer's old mansion’s courtyard entry.The two of them got out of the car and the driver waited by the side with a bow.

Zac, on the other hand, followed her shortly back into the ancient house.Just as he entered, the butler, Tony, greeted him.

"Miss Meyer, Mr.Thomson has also come to meet your grandfather" he remarked respectfully to Anika as she accepted the present from him.

Grandpa Meyer's adoptive son, Scott Thomson, was the Mr.Thomson referred to by Uncle Tony.

At the age of twelve, he was adopted by the Meyer family.

He was described as an ex-friend, but suspicions circulated that he was an illegitimate child.

Perhaps in order to avoid further suspicion, Scott moved out of the Meyer residences when he was an adult and only came back to visit Grandpa Meyer occasionally.

Anika didn't see him much after she returned to the Meyer residence and didn't know who he was.

Just as she was thinking, he saw Scott pacing downstairs.

The man in his forties had a calm and collected demeanor.

"Little Uncle," Anika said politely.

"Yes” he answered.

"President Hill" Scott responded indifferently, his gaze slipping slightly as he peered at the person next her.

Zac shook hands with Scott, his pitch-black eyes smiling back, "How are you doing today? Please just call me Zac.’’ Scott remained silent.

He turned to face Anika and stated, "Mr.Meyer just woke up.Bring in President Hill.I'll be leaving now.”

Zac nodded slightly.

He smiled as he remembered something just as he was ready to leave, "I almost forgot, best wishes for your wedding."

Only then did Anika recall Emma's statement that Zac had broken the rules the day before and departed after the ceremony.

Scott and Zac seemed strangely familiar to her for some reason.

Scott and the others, on the other hand, lacked seniority, and he had never heard of them meeting before.

The thought was brief and quickly disappeared.

Anika led Zac upstairs.

Grandpa Meyer was diagnosed with lung cancer at an advanced stage two months ago.

The doctor offered conservative therapy because of his age, but everyone understood what he meant.
