Beryl's POV:

Arron and I hid in a corner of the park and munched on a few biscuits. Soon, a group of convoys pulled to a stop in front of the hotel opposite the park.

The convoy consisted of one limousine and three smaller vans.

As soon as they arrived, a group of well-dressed men, women, and children walked out of the hotel. Presumably, these people were the businessmen in charge of these goods.
