Chapter 512: "Is something wrong? Are you still uncomfortable?" She shook her head, her voice weak but steady.

"No, it's not that... there's something I need to ask. A favor." Her words were slow, but they carried a weight she hadn't anticipated. She thought of Myrna, her classmate's health growing worse with each passing day. Twas running out for Myrna, and this might be the only chance Rachel had to make a difference.

Brian's expression remained neutral, but his attention was focused, his eyes searching hers.

"What do you need?" Rachel exhaled softly, the heaviness of her request hanging between them.

"The pharmaceutical research department is hiring. I have a friend from school, Huey Dury. He's having trouble finding an opportunity. Could you... could you consider him for the position?" Rachel hesitated, her voice laced with uncertainty as she asked the question.

Brian's indifferent gaze sent a wave of disappointment through her, prompting her to quickly withdraw. "Sorry. I crossed the line." She remembered clearly-he once said he despised nepotism and favoritism.

So, when she joined White Group, she had gone through every step-submitting her resand attending interviews-all entirely on her own merit. Even when she got promoted later on, she never once mentioned him, determined to earn her success without his influence.

"Forward his resto Ronald. I'll have him handle it." Rachel froze, her breath catching in disbelief.

"Thank you, Brian... really, thank you." Genuine gratitude overflowed in her voice.

The thought of Myrna getting another chance at life, and Huey finally being able to smile again, made everything she did feel worthwhile.

Brian watched her closely, then without thinking, his hand lifted-his fingertips just barely grazing her cheek- before he abruptly pulled back.

"You're really that happy over this?" Rachel's eyes lit up, her smile radiant.

"Yes. I am... more than you know."

It was the joy of knowing she had a chance to save a life. How could she save a life be happy about it? "Get srest. Sleep early."

His tone was soft, but without lingering, he turned and walked e Баск toward the sofa. The room sank into silence.

This time, Rachel drifted off almost instantly, but Brian remained wide ve awake, his thoughts a tangled mess.
