Chapter 30 Upcoming Meeting, Upcoming Danger

• Alejandro's complete focus shifted away from his ongoing conversation with Livia and Alexandro, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on the unfolding scene across the dimly lit bar. His intense curiosity got the best of him as he observed Dave and the enigmatic woman in the striking red dress engaged in a hushed conversation that seemed to be shrouded in secrecy. His eyes narrowed with suspicion when he noticed Dave discreetly handing the woman a photograph of Marisa.
• A whirlwind of questions and conjectures swirled through Alejandro's mind. "Why in the world is that scoundrel clutching Marisa's photograph? And what devilish business is he conducting with that woman?" Alejandro's inner monologue was punctuated by a sense of unease as he continued to scrutinize Dave and the woman ensnared in their covert exchange.
• "Alejandro, are you even listening to what Livia is saying?" Alexandro's voice jolted Alejandro out of his thoughts, pulling Alejandro back from the brink of his thoughts. Startled, Alejandro averted his gaze to face Alexandro and Livia, his sudden distraction palpable.
