She had snuck in to send Rachel Bailey away, not daring to let Hansen Ruiz know.
The call was from Julia Bluen.
Julia Bluen felt it was abnormal for Rachel Bailey not to have arrived at Emperor yet after so much time, which was why she called to check. She feared something had happened to Rachel Bailey. Seeing that the call went through, Julia's heart settled a bit. Once Rachel Bailey answered, Julia immediately asked with a laugh, "Rachel, you're not walking, are you? Didn't you say you were leaving early? It's only a half-hour drive; you should have arrived by now. It's been almost an hour."
"Julia, I'm busy right now. I'm afraid I won't be able to join you. You go on with your work," Rachel Bailey replied with a laugh, though her smile sounded somewhat forced, as if strained.
