The grin in his tone was unmistakable, a stark contrast to Cain's more reserved demeanor.

You could tell immediately; Cain would have knocked before entering, his formality setting him apart from Carter’s more impulsive nature. The twins might look identical, but their differences were clear in their actions and approach.
