Chapter 89
Rachel felt her breath catch in her throat..
As it turned out, William had no intention of bringing her, which was why he made no mention of it.
Was he that eager to introduce Samantha to everyone? That would certainly save him texplaining things to
everyone when she eventually took Rachel's place.
Just then, William walked out of the washroom and saw Rachel standing by the bedside table with his phone in
her hand,
His brows furrowed and he bolted toward Rachel, pulling his phone away from her.
“Learning to spy on others‘ phones now, aren't we?”
Rachel’s hands froze in midair, surprised by William's sudden appearance. “I just saw your phone screen light up
and wanted to help you see if it's anything important. Why are you overreacting?”
Rachel's explanation made William realize that he was indeed overreacting. His tightly knitted brows relaxed.
“Nothing. I've been so busy at work. | didn’t want you bogged down by it too, that’s all.”
William glanced at the text he received.
“Oh yes, there's a banquet | have to attend tomorrow. Since your forehead is injured, you'd better rest at home.
Samantha will cwith me, and I'll take the chance to introduce her to our network. If she can bring more to
the table, it'll lessen your load, too.”
Rachel didn’t argue with him. His mind was set, wasn't it?

She complied obediently.
“Okay.”
William thought about how overly-agitated he had been to Rachel and reached out to pull her into his embrace,
rubbing a warm palm down her back.
He signed to her, trying to console her.
“I'm sorry, Rachel. | was too agitated just now and frightened you. You know the unrest that Project Oasis has
brought to the company recently.”
Rachel had no intention whatsoever to kick up a fuss, her face placid. “It’s fine. Let Ms. Judd accompany you.”
William's tense muscles relaxed as he rubbed Rachel's head dotingly. “Get srest at hthese few days.”
“Oh, yes,” Rachel said. “I want to resign and stay at hfor a while to rest. May 1?”
She decided to bring up her resignation to test the waters with William. It might save her strouble when she
officially asked for it.
William's face tensed up once more at Rachel's request; he felt as though he was on an emotional roller coaster
since he chome.
“You want to resign? If you need a break, | can let you do that. There's no need for you to resign.”
“It’s going to be fine. There's Ms. Judd, She'll be an excellent assistant for you, just like | was back then.”
It felt just like yesterday that Rachel was studying diligently and working overtime, pursuing projects at every

Yet now, William seemed to no longer need her around.
William rubbed his nose bridge, not wanting to agree to Rachel's request just yet.
