"Well, go ahead and explain your reason then." Gary Skate put down the work in his hands indifferently, leaning back and raising his eyebrows as he looked at Carolline Ruiz. "I know you're Henry Ruiz's daughter, and I know you work diligently. You're a role model in our hospital, just like your father. He's worked for so many decades, and if I remember correctly, he hasn't taken a single leave of absence."
The implication was clear: if her father hadn't taken any time off, shouldn't she, as his daughter, follow in his footsteps? He had just taken office, and Carolline was already asking for a day off verbally; wasn't this a slap in his face?
Of course, Carolline did not understand Gary Skate's distorted thoughts at this moment.
