Rachel Instinctively looked at Cecilia. She had already made up her mind. “Cecilia, I might need your help with what’s coming next. I’ve been away from the company too long.”

Cecilia nodded. “Don’t worry. Even if you didn’t ask, I’d still help.

Rachel patted her on the shoulder. “I know things haven’t been easy for you lately, with no job and the tough situation at home. I’ll help you get your place back in the next couple of days. Don’t worry.”

Rachel hadn’t told her the whole truth before she left, but Cecilia had always known. Rachel must’ve had her reasons.

Rachel checked the time. “All right, don’t worry about the rest. I’ve got it under control. I’m heading out.”
