The helper opened the door but didn't step inside. He greeted Alem from outside before he gestured for Ryder to step inside.
Ryder walked inside the room and walked over to the table of Alem.
He reached out his hand for a handshake that was a normal custom in situations like these.
Alem gazed at Ryder's hand, but he didn't reach out his hand.
"Please sit," he said boringly.
It seemed awkward as Ryder's gesture was rejected. He pulled back his hand and sat on the chair.
'What an arrogant man. Was he always like this?' Ryder thought while observing the face of Alem.
"So, what brought you here, Mr. Flynn," Alem asked casually. His eyes kept their focus on the screen of his laptop, not even focusing on Ryder.
'If this guy weren't the one who had helped me before, I would be so annoyed at this ignorance. But I'm giving him some leeway since he helped me before,' Ryder thought as he ignored the negligence.
