When | entered my office, | saw that Carol was keeping Eleanor company.

Eleanor quickly stood up and greetedawkwardly as | cin, Ms. Chloe.” I smiled. “I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. It was my daughter's birthday yesterday, and we stayed up late, so | overslept! | explained.

However, | had no idea that places like this were so popular that they were packed with people. We were greeted by a young woman at the front desk, who suggested that we wait in the lobby.

However, Liora had other ideas She was the type to hold grudges, and there was no way she would letoff the hook. After all, | was the thom in her side.

With a touch of sarcasm, she muttered to the spa attendant, “Hmm, darling, it seems the standards of this place have dropped.” The attendant tried to maintain a polite smile. “Ms. Liora, how can that be? Our members meet a certain standard. It's not something just anyone can afford.” From their interaction, it was clear that Liora was a regular here. This was my first there, so | did not know the protocols.

Liora said in disapproval, “Ha! They're letting all kinds of people in. You should have a word with your boss. What kind of scum are they letting in? Perhaps we should consider canceling our membership!” Several guests waiting in the lobby appeared displeased, and Liora offered a faint smile. “Don’t take it personally. | wasn’t referring to any of you.” | knew what she was implying.
