<div style="text-align: justify;">While Martin and Diane had their ‘romantic’ sight-seeing day, the wheels of Fate were spinning away from them, in the place that was the center of everything that would eventually come to them - the Hotel. Using the time when they were all gone for a meeting, the two ladies in charge of the plan called their entire ‘team’ into the room the second one to arrive was using for now. Pierre, his false sister Sophie, the Italian lady and one of the chamber maids were all called to the room. <br/><br/>The two leaders of the group started the meeting by quizzing their subordinates on what they had so far. They were extremely happy with Pierre and Sophie. The reaction to the young man by the Actor had been the expected, and if he played his cards right, they would probably have an easy time getting to Martin. Sophie had played her part well as well and wouldn’t have much to do from now on. That is, unless it came to the two men using her as a link of some sort as to not raise suspicion. In that case, she was to happily offer her help and make sure to copy or write down any message sent through her.<br/><br/>Pierre was supposed to be around the lobby whenever Martin was down, but he was to do nothing but exchanging discreet glances with the Actor and wait for him to take initiative.<br/><br/>Once the two false siblings were instructed in their missions, they were dismissed so the meeting could continue. <br/><br/>The Italian lady was next. She told the two ladies about her interaction with Rich, and they seemed satisfied. That old dog couldn’t resist the sight of a fine woman who appeared to have money. Things would be easier than taking candy off a baby with that one. Her only instructions were to please Rich and get him to let his guard down. That, and to give Martin some time away from the Agent, so he would be an easier target. Having her instructions, the Italian lady also left, leaving only the chamber maid to be talked to.<br/><br/>The chamber maid - just one of the many around the hotel - told the two ladies what she had seen and heard since Martin and his group had checked in. The good thing about being a simple chamber maid wearing uniform was that people didn’t really look at you. Not people like Martin and his group, at least. For people like them, the young chamber maid was sure that they seemed to be all the same. Well, that could work to her advantage now, for once in her life.<br/><br/>After telling the ladies everything she knew so far, the chamber maid left. Her instructions were simple - keeping eyes and ears open - and didn’t require much time, so off she went. <br/><br/>And, as luck had it, she had been right at the floor Martin and his group were when the fight broke out between the Actor and Diane. She couldn’t hear what was happening inside the room from the corridor, of course. Yet, there was no way anyone who was not blind would  fail to notice what had happened just by looking at Diane. The shock and surprise in the woman’s expression were real, and it took her a few moments to react. “Madame!”, she explained, moving her hand as though she was about to touch Diane’s face and pulling it back. ~“What happened?”~, she asked in French, her eyes wide. Deep down inside, she was delighted, under her shocked and concerned expression. That sight would definitely give her a handsome tip from her employers.</div>
