Lily swiftly arrived beside him. She took a deep breath and exhaled, regaining her composure, before focusing on Elias.
"Good evening, Mr Elias; how are you doing?" Lily greeted Elias with a smile.
"I'm okay; how have you been, Miss Lily," Elias replied with a nod. He noticed she was wearing her massive backpack behind her. "How about you?" He asked.
"I'm alright," Lily responded. "I heard from the receptionist that you left the hotel early, so I've been waiting all day for your return to finally give you this money. Fortunately, you returned just in time, or else I don't think I'll be able to stand here much longer." She pulled some side pockets from her back pocket as she completed her sentences.
"It seems that I've caused you some problems, Miss Lily," Elias replied, glancing at the money in her outstretched hands. However, he didn't collect the money. He was now wealthy enough that $120 wasn't considered much to him.
