"Sophia, we meet again. Happy New Year." With a gentle smile, Zephyr greeted Sophia, stepping up beside her at the sink to wash his hands.. "What are you doing here?" Sophia asked bluntly.

"Just handling a few things around here. And you?" Zephyr took two paper towels from the dispenser and dried his hands with an easy grace. -Vacation," Sophia gave him a curt one-word reply, shook off the water from her hands, and walked out.

Zephyr caught her arm. "Any chance I could take you to dinner?"

"No chance," she said, shaking off his hand and striding out of the restroom. Back at the table, Lenora noticed Sophia's expression. What happened?" Sophia gave a cold snort. "Ran into some trash. Talk about a buzzkill." Lengra immediately understood who she meant. "He's staying here, too?"

"Yeah." Sophia took a few more halfhearted bites, then set down her fork. "I'm done. Going back to the room first. Are we going out tonight?" Lenora glanced at Ezekiel, who checked his watch thoughtfully. "Let's head out around eight. I can show you a few night photography techniques" "Sounds good. I'll go rest up a bit," Sophia said, grabbing her phone and leaving

"Aunt Lenora, I'm full too. Can we head back?" Harrietta asked, looking up at her.

Lenora turned to Ezekiel. "Guess we'll head back first. Let's meet in the lobby at eight."

Ezekiel nodded.

Once they left, only he and Jerry remained at the table

Jerry hesitated before saying. "Mr. Hoffman, the child just called Ms. Wilkin her aunt."

"I heard," Ezekiel replied, his voice low. "Look into who Lenora's husband is."

"Understood."

Just then, Zephyr approached with his tray and took a seat across from Ezekiel. He adjusted his glasses with long, graceful fingers. "They left already?" "Yeah."

Jerry added with a smirk, "Ms. Tortell came back from the restroom and said she wanted to go back to her room, claiming she'd encountered some 'trash. You might still have some work to do. Mr. Yankovich." Zephyr chuckled. "If she's got feelings, that's better than seeing me as a stranger."
