Adrian's POV
We were both sitting when he waved his hand to the waiter. He poured wine on our glasses and left afterwards.
“I thought we would meet tomorrow night?” I asked. “It looks like what you want to say is serious.”
“I need your help. I know you have many connections,” Alex said. “I have something to investigate about five years ago. Someone kidnapped my wife on the same day. Also, I was about to meet up with my wife's abductors. But it was all just a set-up. I brought the money that night to take in exchange for my wife. Still, when I opened the door, the person sitting in that warehouse was just a mannequin that was surrounded by a time bomb.”
