Chapter 1054

"How would I know what it is? You can ask him about it yourself."

Rylantha rolled her eyes impatiently before remarking with a smile, "Since I did you such a huge favor, you should remember to repay me for my kindness."

"Ariel is my future sister-in-law and a friend as well. I won't be helping you with anything that hurts her." Elise shut down that possibility without allowing Rylantha to state what she wanted.

"How lame. Well, you can at least put in a good word for me with the old fool, right?" Rylantha replied with the look of someone who got shortchanged.

"That I can do."

"You're no fool, aren't you, huh? You immediately refused to do something that'd take a lot of effort, but you readily agreed to something that won't cost you anything," Rylantha retorted scathingly.

Then, she got her purse and adjusted her clothes. "I've done what I was supposed to do. You're heading down, right? Come on. Let's go together."

They got into an elevator and the doors were just about to close when a janitor who was wearing a baseball cap entered with a janitor cart.

Rylantha covered her nose in disdain and grumbled, "Don't they have service elevators at a resort as big as this?"

The janitor ignored the comment. He simply pulled his cap a little further down.

Elise couldn't help but take a second glance. The large trash can was clean and the rag hanging on the side of the cart looked new, but what she was most struck by was the fact that the janitor was wearing a pair of limited-edition leather shoes from a luxury brand.

If she recalled correctly, those shoes cost at least five figures. Even Jamie wouldn't be willing to drop that much cash on a pair of shoes.

What kind of janitor is this? He spends even more lavishly than the son of the Kellers.

Elise knew that this was no ordinary janitor at all. She kept her guard up and secretly tracked the person's movements.

True enough, as soon as the elevator doors closed, the janitor made his move. First, he knocked Rylantha out with his elbow.

Elise had only just retrieved her silver needles when she realized that it was Owen. She quickly put her needles away and gasped in surprise, "Owen? What are you doing here—"
