?Chapter 374:


    It was a problem with no real solution—unless either she or Tracy chose to step away.


    A few dayster, when Brian stopped by again, he found out Rachel had already been discharged. He heard about it from the nurses.


    “Why didn’t you tell me you were leaving the hospital?” Brian called Rachel right away.


    “You’ve had a lot on your te. I didn’t want to trouble you with my matters.”


    “How are you feeling? Is your recovery going well?”


    “I’m doing well. I should be back at work in a few days.”


    A brief silence stretched between them before Brian finally asked, “How have you been handling meals? You’re still recovering, so takeout isn’t a good idea. Maybe I should…”


    Before he could finish, Rachel cut in, “Yvonne said she’d be staying with me for a few days to help out.”


    Brian’s brows furrowed instantly. “Yvonne? From what I remember, she’s never had to lift a finger for anything. Are you sure she can handle taking care of you?”


    “That was before. She’s learned to cook pretty well now, and I trust her.”


    Brian was momentarily at a loss for words.


    Then, a thought crossed his mind. “Norton’s returning from his business trip soon. Yvonne might have to take care of him instead.”


    “Oh? Is that so?” Rachel raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised. She was d Yvonne was willing to help, but thest thing she wanted was to cause trouble between her and Norton. “Why don’t I…”


    Once again, Rachel didn’t let him finish. “Samira mentioned that she coulde take care of me too,” she said calmly.


    “I see,” Brian replied before hanging up. His tone was t, but it was clear his mood had soured.


    However, the very next moment, he called the design department, and just like that, Samira was assigned to a project she couldn’t turn down. Not only was it far away, but it would also keep her busy for an entire month.


    When Samira called to tell Rachel about it, Rachel immediately had a feeling Brian was behind it.


    “Rachel, I’ll go refuse right now. Don’t worry, I’ll stay with you,” Samira assured her.

    Samira had been by Rachel’s side as her assistant for years. She was a loyal friend.


    Rachel understood that, despite how unexpected the assignment was, it was an incredible opportunity for Samira. The project itself was solid, and the bonus made it even more worthwhile. If Samira sessfullypleted the project, she’d be in a prime position for a well-earned promotion—one that Rachel could grant without anyone questioning it.


    “Don’t turn it down—you should take it,” Rachel decided without hesitation.


    Samira blinked in surprise. “But what about you? And Jeffrey?”


    “I’ll be fine. Yvonne’s going to look after me.” After weighing the situation, Rachelid it all out for her, and Samira eventually agreed to take on the assignment. “Alright. I’ll be looking forward to your return.”


    Once Samira’s situation was handled, Brian picked up his phone and called Norton.
