Lena sauntered over with a friendly smile and took a seat next to Hattie, casting a concerned glance at Josefina. "Josie, you alright? I'm a doctor, so feel free to let me know if there's any discomfort."

She promptly dismissed the call and shot off a quick text.

"I'm feeling a bit worn out, need to catch some Z's. I'm gonna head up," Josefina finally declared.

Hattie stood up, taking charge of Josefina's wheelchair. "Let me wheel you up."

Josefina, however, decided to address Oliver directly, "Oliver, see you around."

Oliver's grin was broad, "Till next time."

As Oliver watched Josefina disappear into the elevator, he bid farewell to Garrett without sparing Lena a glance.
