Sophie, quick on her feet, immediately said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Wayne. It's my first time here, and I was just looking for the restroom but couldn't find it. This second floor is just so big... Excuse me, sir, could you tell me where the restroom is?"
The guard became somewhat skeptical but put down his walkie-talkie. Realizing that Sophie was just looking for the restroom, he pointed ahead and said, "Turn left up ahead."
"Thank you so much."
Sophie's gaze still lingered on the elevator across from her. If she couldn't get any information today, it would be even harder to get close to this place in the future.
Sophie made up her mind, turned back to the guard, and asked, "By the way, sir, you mentioned swiping a card. Is a card required to use this elevator?"
The guard glanced at Sophie and said, "The upper floors are reserved for VIP guests of Minton International. Only those with a gold card are allowed entry."
Sophie, feigning curiosity, asked, "Sounds fun upstairs. Can I get one of these gold cards from Wayne?"
"We don't have the authority for that. If you're interested, you might want to ask Wayne."
Sophie seemed to genuinely know Wayne, and the guard's attitude softened a bit.
Sophie smiled and said, "Thanks. I'll go ask him in a bit."
As Sophie turned to leave, she spotted Wayne at the corner of the hallway, who had been looking for her. She stabilized her nerves upon seeing him, approached, and asked, "Wayne, what happened?"
Wayne immediately came forward, anxiously saying, "Ms. Sophie, where did you run off to? I've had people looking for you everywhere."
