"Do you remember what I told you before?" Ryan asked.
Even though Ryan had only recently become an adult, he handled situations with maturity. He would sometimes purposefully act naive in front of Anna. He didn't bother pretending in front of Wayne, though.
Wayne appeared solemn, like a statue. He then analyzed, "Richard owns approximately twenty nightclubs in Birmingham. The police discovered drugs in two clubs this time, but neither had anything to do with him. I paid close attention to where they were checking this time and was surprised that they didn't check even one of Richard's clubs."
Ryan looked at Wayne, hoping he understood what he was saying.
Wayne certainly got his meaning, as he had expected. They both knew there would be no such thing as a coincidence in the world.
