Halia didn't notice them, but Sean did. As one of them turned their camera towards Halia, he quickly ran over to her, grabbed her hand and dragged her into the elevator. Natalie tried to chase after the two in surprise, but the elevator closed before she got there.
After the doors closed, Halia quickly shook Sean's hand away.
"There was a reporter," Sean explained.
"Thanks," Halia said as she pressed the button for her floor.
"Can we have a quick debrief?" Sean whispered.
There were other people in the elevator, so they couldn't discuss their case there.
Soon, the elevator reached Halia's floor and she stepped out. "Come in for a bit," she said as she opened the door.
