« Emma? »
The blood froze in my veins.
« Yes. »
She handed me the hotel map.
“He said you would come.”
« Which room? »
“Upstairs.”
The elevator ride seemed endless.
When the door opened, complete silence reigned in the corridor.
Only one door, at the very back, let in the light.
I slowly approached them.
With every step, my heart raced.
I then noticed that the door was already slightly ajar.
« Mr. Harrison? »
No response.
I pushed the door further.
And I froze.
My boss was standing in the middle of the room, looking me straight in the eyes.
Two elegantly dressed strangers were standing next to him.
But that’s not what scared me.
A white dress was lying on the bed.
And next to it was a small velvet box containing a diamond ring.
