At the east side, behind the villa, two men were clearing the area. Each of them wore headphones, dancing to music, shirtless, when a notification popped up on their phones.
The alert came not once or twice but several times. Surprised by the constant buzzing, Norman took off his headphone and saw Thomas do the same.
"Did you get that???" they asked at once. Seeing that both of their phones had lit up, they rushed to where the devices lay and froze — the message was from an unknown number.
The text read like a greeting.
Hello Norman, hello Thomas — it's Daniel Wolfe, Xylander's husband and your friend. I need your utmost help.
Your friend is in danger and I need dire help — because right now, if this doesn't work out, Xylander might get killed and I won't be alive anymore to tell you what happened.
