202 The Manor (5)

Gael didn't know how long he looked away, but Angela was no longer there when he checked her booth. Fûck.

He straightened in his seat and scanned the whole second floor, but she was nowhere to be found. His cousin Val and his soldier Trigger weren't there either. So where the hell were they?

While Giovanni was still talking, Gael got to his feet and tried to look around once again, thinking he couldn't see her because he was sitting down, but there was still no sign of her. "Fûck," he cursed again, this time, audibly.

"What's going on?" Giovanni was on his side right away.

"I can't find Angela."

Giovanni began searching for her from left to right as well. "She's probably just in the restroom."
