Coaxing my master

"Not yet." He was surprised too. Hadn't it been too long? 

"Do you think he got found out?" The man has his men nearby… what if they did something to him?" She was suddenly worried. If she knew Carlos would end up getting harmed, she would have done it herself. 

He ran a hand through her hair. "Don't worry. Carlos isn't that weak." 

Just then, Carlos appeared, sighing. 

"Did you fail?" She asked immediately. 

He shook his head vigorously. "Of course not! How can I fail to accomplish the master's order? Won't that make me lose my head?" He knew that no one was interested in random chatter, so he went straight to the point. "It's strange. I couldn't find the man no matter how I searched, and when I finally did, he was in the trunk of my car—unconscious—so I simply sent him to the location I was instructed to send him." 

"Who knocked him out and put him in your trunk?" Shera was curious about the weird occurrence.
