This second floor in just so big... Excuse me, sir, could you tellwhere the restroom is?" The guard becsomewhat skeptical but put down his walkie talkie. Itealizing that Sophie was just looking for the restroom, he pointed ahead and said, "Tum left ups ahead? "Thank you so much." Sophie's gaze still lingered on the elevator across from her.

The guard glanced at Sophie and said. "The upper floorsreserved 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. Ill go ask him in a bit." As Sophie turned to leave, she spotted Wayne at the comer of the hallway, who had been looking for her. She stabilized her nerves upon seeing him, approached, and asked, "Wayne, what happened?" Wayne immediately cforward, anxiously saying, "Ms. Sophie, where did you run off to? I've had people looking for you everywhere." "Im so sorry. I was just looking for the restroom and got lost." Realizing Sophie was merely lost, Wayne relaxed and nodded, saying. This place can be a bit of a maze, Ms. Sophie. It's best not to wander off. If anything happened, Id have a hard texplaining it to Mr. Odie." "Don't worry, Wayne. I won't make things difficult for you." At her words, Wayne had the guards who had been searching for her stand down.
With no one else around, Sophie intentionally said, "I passed by an elevator earlier, and the guard at the door was so fierce, questioning who I was. I wonder what's so interesting upstairs that it's guarded like a treasure?" "Don't worry, Ms. Sophie, I'll speak to thern! You're one of Mr. Odie's people. They should be more polite. But it's also their job, considering its a place only accessible to VIP guests with a gold card:" "Oh? You're makingcurious. Sophie seized the opportunity to ask, “Wayne, could I possibly go up to take a look around? Maybe ust a quick visit?" "Ms. Sophie... I don't have the authority for the upper floors, but since you're with Mr. Odie, it might be best to have Mr. Odie take you up there next time. It would be safer that way"
"Is that so? Well... Il ask him about it m next time, then." The content is on novelenglish.net! A shadow of doubt lingered in Sophie's mind.
