Jenna bolted into the hotel without a second thought. Sophie lingered outside, peering through the window as Gordon laughed and chatted with another woman, and couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment. It seemed the rumors were true after all.
After a while, Sophie noticed Jenna hadn't made her way inside and figured Rick must have stopped her. Concerned about Jenna and Rick potentially clashing again, Sophie decided to head into the Grand Hotel herself.
Outside the lobby, it was just Rick holding his post, with no sign of Jenna. Puzzled, Sophie asked, "Rick, did you see Jenna come through?"
She had seen Jenna enter just moments ago. How could she have disappeared so quickly?
Rick smiled knowingly. "Ms. Sophie, are you looking for Mr. Gordon at this hour?"
Caught off guard by Rick's straightforwardness, Sophie blushed. "I... well, I was just..."
"Mr. Gordon is inside. If you need to ask him something, wouldn't it be better to do it in person?"
Rick's suggestion left Sophie momentarily taken aback. Ask him in person?
"But isn't he in a meeting with someone important? Wouldn't barging in be rude?" Sophie asked, hesitating.
Rick simply smiled and stepped aside, inviting her to enter. After some hesitation, Sophie decided to go into the hotel's restaurant.
As soon as she stepped inside, she noticed the woman who had been with Gordon had vanished into thin air. Gordon sat alone at a window-side table now. The table was set anew, with fresh dishes laid out.
