By the time Adam reached the private room above the restaurant on Market Spine Road, Bruno was already inside.
The room was not big. It had one table, four chairs, a dull wall fan, and a window covered from the inside. Someone could eat there without being seen from the main floor. That was enough for this meeting.
Adam entered as Wil.
Bruno stood up the moment he saw him.
"Mister Wil," he said quickly.
Adam gave him one look and sat down without answering at once.
That small silence was enough to make Bruno straighten his back.
He had expected to wait longer. He had come early because Wil had told him to come alone, and because he did not want to look careless in front of the man who had pulled him back from death. But Wil had arrived almost immediately.
To Bruno, it felt as if Wil had known.
