"Hello, Ms. Seinfield. Mr. Hoyce has instructed us about your arrival. Please wait for him in the parlor." The receptionist courteously swiped the elevator card for Charlotte to enter.

The elevator soon reached the top floor. Taking a deep breath, Charlotte walked out of it.
The door to the parlor was wide open. Silas hadn't arrived yet.

Silas's assistant brought her a cup of coffee and then left. It was quiet in the parlor.
