“Young buddy, do you trust me?” Bill asked Adam using a light friendly tone.

With full of sincerity, Adam nodded. He didn’t know why but he had been trusting him for the first time he met his stranger friend.

“Hmmm...” Adam nodded. “But mister, my kidnappers were guarding the mansion.” Then he added with a worried tone.
