When Love Becomes a Cage by Nora

Chapter 205



The very next morning, the HR manager sought out Rachel with urgency.

"Rachel, here's your transfer order. From now on, you'll be working in the Administrative Department."

"Administrative Department?"

Rachel didn't take the document, instead, she seemed quite displeased.

The HR manager was in a tough spot herself.

"Mr. Patterson demanded this transfer first thing this morning. I had no choice, and he even made me post it on the internalwork."

"You might want to start packing up, Mr. Patterson is known for his short fuse."

She glanced at me cautiously, then back at Rachel.

"Rachel, don't make this hard on me, I'm just doing my job here."

She left the file on Rachel's desk before making her exit.

Rachel, however, just tore the document to shreds and continued with her work.

I approached her, tapping on her desk.

"Can we talk?"

Rachel gave me a resigned look before following me to the break room.

"Melanie, it's not that I want to transfer. I don't want to leave the Design Department."
