Dawn light seeps through the thick drapes of the guest room, cutting bright stripes across the floor and setting specks of dust adrift. Outside, the low, steady hum of a black Prestige idles in the driveway. Conrad stands in the hallway, adjusting his thin-framed glasses, his suit a study in precision even at this early hour. He holds a leather portfolio flat against his side, the faint, polished scent of his cologne lingering in the air. With a soft, even knock on your door, he waits, his stern expression gentling as he pictures the young adult on the other side.
