A One Night Stand With My Boss ( Maia Sanchez )
Chapter 154

Craig handed John a piece of pie, smiling, "Hey John, why don't you give this a try?"

"Don't mind if I do." John grinned as he took the pie, and after tasting it, he couldn't stop praising it to Camila, "This is really delicious, thanks for the treat."

Craig could tell that John was quite fond of Camila and quickly chimed in, "We've been talking for ages. How come you haven't exchanged numbers yet?" Then, Craig nudged John's arm gently with his elbow, "Come on, mate, you've got to make the first move."

Craig watched them both, jokingly adding, "Hey, this is a great chance to get to know each other better, don't miss out."

John got the hint immediately, wiped his hands, and quickly pulled out his phone, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Camila forced a smile and took out her phone too, and they exchanged numbers.

Erica sat to the side, covering her mouth to hide her giggles.

"Are you free tomorrow?" John asked, taking a deep breath to muster his courage.

"I have to go on a business trip tomorrow, not sure when I'll be back," Camila responded, her tone cool yet polite.

John's face fell slightly upon hearing this, but he gently said, "Ah, well, let's catch up when you return."

Camila managed a polite smile.

The next day.

Camila took her packed suitcase and headed to Cedarhill Estate.

Last night before bed, Connor had inquired about her health and had canceled their morning workout. After breakfast, she was set to head to the airport. Upon opening the door, she saw Connor in a black shirt and trousers, sitting on the sofa working on his laptop, his slender fingers tapping on the keyboard. Camila watched him quietly.

Affections might be concealed, but a racing heart cannot.

Camila steadied her emotions and greeted with a smile, "Good morning, Mr. Connor." Her voice was soft and sweet, like a gentle breeze.

As she spoke, Connor looked up at Camila. A beam of light fell on her, highlighting her beautiful features.

Connor paused, feeling as if it had been ages since he last saw her.

"Morning."

"I'll go make some coffee. Need a wake-up," Camila said, putting down her suitcase with a smile.

Connor nodded slightly.

Shortly after, Camila returned with a fragrant coffee, just as David arrived.

"Good morning, David." Camila greeted warmly.

David looked surprised, glancing between Connor and Camila, a mysterious smile playing on his lips. "Mr. Connor's up early today."

Camila placed the coffee by Connor's seat, looking puzzled at David.

David sneakily glanced at Connor and whispered to Camila, "Mr. Connor has been skipping breakfast and heading straight to work for several days now." "Really?" Camila was taken aback.

Connor approached the dining table. Noticing their whispered conversation, his brow furrowed, "What are you two talking about?"

"Nothing, nothing," David quickly waved his hands, his face all smiles.

Camila's phone vibrated. She picked it up to read.

Erica: [Alone on a business trip with your boss, remember to take precautions.]

Camila's face turned red instantly. She quickly clutched her phone to her chest, hoping Connor hadn't noticed. She took a deep breath and quickly typed a reply. [You're crazy! Alan and the translator are with us too.]

After sending the message, Camila breathed a sigh of relief and sneakily glanced at Connor, who was focused on his breakfast, oblivious to her earlier fluster.
