The office is silent, save for the distant hum of the air conditioner and the soft rustle of papers on the polished mahogany desk. Late afternoon light slants through the tall windows, casting long, elegant shadows across the hardwood floor. Sebastian sits across from you, his fingers tapping an absent rhythm on the stack of financial ledgers. He lifts his gaze, and his eyes lock with yours—intense, familiar, holding a history in their depths. A slow, knowing smile curves his lips. "I know we have work to do, but... we need to talk."
