Chapter 204 "Melanie, are you okay?" Jade squeezed my shoulder, trying to lendsof her strength.

All I could do was shake my head, at a loss for what else to do.

Suddenly, Rachel's anxious voice echoed down the hallway. "Clyde, Clyde, what's wrong? The headache again?" I rushed out to see Clyde slowly sinking to the ground by the elevator doors, his face ghostly pale.

Jade and I hurried over.

"Clyde, what's happening to you?" Just as I squatted down to reach for him, Clyde pushedaway and leaned towards Rachel instead.

"My head's killing me." His voice was so pitiful. Rachel stiffened for a moment before letting his head rest against her, pulling out a pill from her purse.

He clung to Rachel, a sight that was both striking and harmonious.

I remained squatting there, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

Jade helpedup, whispering words of comfort.

Rachel coughed awkwardly.

"Melanie, I got this from Merritt last time, worried Clyde wouldn't take his medicine." I nodded, understanding.

After Rachel and Clyde left, my work pace significantly slowed down.

Finally, Jade, seeingzoning out, insisted on takinghome.

"What are you planning to do?" Her tone was worried, but all I could do was shake my head.

Clyde's injury was to his head, what else could I do? "Melanie, don't you find Rachel... a bit strange?" "Shouldn't she be keeping her distance? And her tone earlier, it was so odd." I didn't respond.

I understood Jade's point; if it were me, I certainly wouldn't want to be anywhere near Clyde.

But Rachel seemed to always be around him by design.

Several times, the Design Department's plans were delivered by her, even thally should have been Lina's job.

But Rachel claimed she had less work and would feel useless if she didn't do more.

Knowing her pride, I didn't think much of it.

"Why don't we get Eliana Chandler involved? Didn't you say the hospital is owned by the Chandler family? Maybe there's sold-timey Westem medicine, like a leech treatment or something, that could fix Clyde right up?" I smiled wryly, "Yeah, maybe an old-fashioned remedy could snap him back to reality."
