Alex returned, accompanied by a man in a suit who introduced himself as his lawyer. “Good evening,” he started, shaking my hand. “I’m Mr. Thompson.”
His formal tone added to the weight of the moment. There was an air of seriousness that settled over the room immediately.
I offered them both a seat, my mind racing with questions and assumptions. What kind of legal matters could Alex possibly need to discuss with me?
And why now?
