GoodNovelChapter 314: This revelation immediately transported Rachel's thoughts to his drenching in the downpour.
"What's his condition?" she inquired, striving to maintain professional composure.
"He consumed excessive alcohol and suffered a stomach hemorrhage," Samira explained.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLearning his illness wasn't weather-related somewhat alleviated Rachel's feelings of responsibility. However, as Samira concluded her report and turned to leave, she hesitated noticeably.
"What is it? Please speak freely," Rachel encouraged as she closed her folder.
Samira exhaled with relief. "I really want to share this with you. But Rachel, promise you won't be distressed." Rachel nodded in agreement.
"I've heard Mr. White drank on Tracy's behalf, and she's been personally attending to him in the hospital." Rachel had anticipated this development, so her reaction remained subdued.
Samira, however, expressed surprise. "Doesn't that provoke jealousy?" "Our relationship has ended. What grounds would I have for jealousy?" Rachel responded with equanimity. Samira acknowledged this. "That's valid. With your combination of beauty and intellect, you should swiftly attract someone new. Since he moved on so rapidly, you certainly could do the same." "If only I hadn't allowed Trey to resign back then. You two could have formed a couple, driving that jerk absolutely mad," Samira said furiously.
Rachel couldn't suppress a smile. "Aren't you concerned he might overhear you?" "He's hospitalized and unwell. Besides, I reserve such comments for private conversations. I wouldn't dare criticize him openly-I'd lose my position," Samira replied, playfully extending her tongue.
After Samira's departure, Rachel remained alone in her office. The following day, midway through her tasks, Ronald appeared personally.
He carried a document Rachel had recently submitted. All procedural requirements had been fulfilled, lacking only Brian's final authorization.

Only one possibility existed.
As expected, Ronald addressed her, "Ms. Marsh, I apologize, but Mr. White has requested you deliver this to him personally for his signature." Rachel opened the document to discover the unsigned signature line. Taking a measured breath, she composed herself emotionally.
Due to Brian's hospitalization, all documents requiring his signature his were routed through Ronald, who then delivered them to the patient's bedside.
Rachel knew with certainty that Brian had approved documents from other departments without hesitation, as e long as they contained no errors and met all the requirements. Yet hers alone remained conspicuously unsigned. "He's deliberately creating obstacles," Rachel concluded, closing the document with measured restraint.
What defense could Ronald offer? He merely repeated the formal m instruction, "Ms. Marsh, Mr. White ruction indicated that if this matter requires immediate attention, you should personally bring it to him."
