NELSON ESTATE
Miguel gripped the steering wheel tightly, the last words Ash had spoken ringing in his ears as he parked outside the Nelson estate.
The cold night air felt filled with tension as he stared up at the darkened windows. In his mind, he pictured his son, Max, held somewhere in the Nelsons' territory.
Just then, his phone buzzed.
BUZZ!
He answered swiftly, “Hello, Ash.”
“Sir,” came Ash's voice, calm yet urgent. “I just received an update from Nina. We have a confirmed location. It’s one of the Nelson warehouses downtown. CCTV caught a couple with a little boy arriving earlier. Strangely, they returned an hour later without the boy. We believe the boy is Max. Cole and his team are already en route," Ash said.
Miguel took a slow, steadying breath. “Thank you, Ash.”
