"Jacky, I need to report to Gerald today. Hold my calls until I get back." She gathered her notepad and her phone before walking towards her door. "Just text me if there is an emergency."
Gerald already updated her through his emails on the case he was working on with her. He did not pressure her to report to him during the last week, knowing her condition, but she could tell that he badly needed her help.
She determined that she might need a couple of days to get acquainted with the case but could tell that she did not have that much time.
"Ok. I will text you if it is important." Jacky knew the drill. Then, she also returned to her table to do her work.
Not having Dani around the office did not mean that she could laze around her table. She also had tons of work to finish. When her boss returned, Dani would find the files neatly piled on her table for her perusal.
