"If you press a fucking alarm, you will surely not like what I'm going to do with you."

"This is harassment, sir."

He swallowed.

"Do you have a wife?" I asked him.

He nodded.

"Do you love her?"

He nodded again.

"I have a wife, too. I want her back, but I don't know where to start." I put my hand in my back pocket and pulled out my wallet.

I opened it and took out stacks of bills, placing them on the counter in front of him. "Now, I just want to see the CCTV of the person who left this ring. And who bought it. Also the buyer's information on when he will come to pick it up. I meant no harm. I want to know so I can buy it from him." I was talking calmly this time.

He didn't talk, but his eyes were on the cash in front of him.

"You can buy many things with that money. Buy something for your wife or kids if you have any. I'm not even going to take the tape or the recording. I just want to see it."

"After this, you will leave?" He asked in a low voice.

"Once I see the video and after you give me the information about the buyer." I made it clear.

He grabbed the cash on the counter, inserted it into his pocket, and walked to the back of the shop. He then led me to a door that had a narrow hallway before it came to another door.
