After ordering a few dishes from the tablet, Eliza set it aside. When she saw Nolan’s message, she quickly replied: “The environment here is nice. I’ll stay the night and come back tomorrow.”

“Good.”

That one word was enough.

They had agreed on a secret code beforehand. If Eliza stayed, it meant she had successfully reached the fifth floor. Nolan’s reply of “good” meant no danger outside. If he had written “come home,” it would mean trouble.

So far, everything seemed clear.

Eliza closed her phone and decided to look around.

She had already noticed that parts of the fifth floor were sealed off and unlit, places she hadn’t dared approach earlier with staff present. Now she was alone. And, just as promised, there were

Stepping out of her room, she began wandering through the maze–like corridors. Soren had to be on this floor too, but finding him wouldn’t be easy.

After a long while, she suddenly felt a tap on her shoulder. Her heart skipped a beat in the silence. She turned and found a staff member smiling politely, holding a tray.

“Ms. Rivers, are you lost?”

“This floor is confusing. I’ve been walking in circles.”

“If you need anything, simply ring the bell. The fifth floor is easy to get lost in. Guests usually prefer to stay inside. I should have reminded you earlier. If you want to go downstairs, just ring – someone will escort you. It prevents awkward encounters between clients.”

Eliza forced herself to nod calmly though her nerves were rattled. Why had this appeared so suddenly behind her?

Eliza lifted the lid. A strange scent rose immediately – not unpleasant, but off. Definitely not simple sweet soup.

She hesitated, then smiled faintly. “Leave it in my room. I’ll drink it later.”

“As you wish. Please, allow me to escort you back.”

The staff led the way, winding through corridor after corridor. Eliza realized they were intentionally making the path confusing so she couldn’t memorize the layout.

But she had already studied Nolan’s earlier footage and taken note of most of the floor’s design.

After five minutes, they reached her suite again. The staff set the bowl on the table. “Ring anytime if you need us. We’ll respond immediately.”

“Alright. Leave me now. I don’t want to be disturbed.”

“Of course.”

Once the door shut, Eliza pulled out her phone. She wanted to ask Soren directly where he was, but hesitated. This place was secure, but who knew if conversations were monitored?

Instead, she typed carefully: “I found a good medical beauty clinic. You’re injured lately — maybe you should try it too.”

The reply came fast: “I’m already in one. Do you mean Ventus?”

“Yes. What a coincidence. Don’t tell me you’re here too?”

“I’m in a VIP suite on the fifth floor.”

Her pulse quickened. That confirmed it – they were on the same floor.

“Why don’t I come find you? Which room are you in?”
