“Ah, everyone says they’re busy. Logan is the same. Once you step into the real world, everyone has their own things to juggle,” Haylie sighed, walking over to the couch and gently patting the seat next to her. “Please, have a seat.” 

Connor did as he was told, unbuttoning his suit jacket before sitting down on the plush sofa. 

“I watched your online launch event. It was a big success. I never imagined that the boy who used to love racing cars would transform into a business mogul, Haylie remarked. 

“Thanks. You’ve been quite successful yourself, winning countless awards in just seven years,” Connor said, looking at her 

“I have you to thank for that,” Haylie smiled.. 

Connor paused for a moment, then lowered his head slightly and said, “I’m sorry” 

“Seriously, I’m not being sarcastic” Haylie chuckled. “It’s a bit of a pity, but then, who has a perfect life?” 

Connor took out a small box, smiling as he said, “A belated engagement gift” 

Haylie gasped with delight as she took it, her eyes sparkling as she opened it “Thank you, it’s beautiful,” she said to her assistant. “Help me put it on.” 

Her assistant promptly came over, removed the necklace she was wearing, and replaced it with the new one. 

Haylie took out her phone, switched to selfie mode, and checked out the necklace through the camera, a small smile playing on her lips. “You really have a good eye.” 

I’m glad you like it,” Connor smiled 

“It’s getting late. I just came to give you this gift. I won’t be attending the banquet, Connor said as he stood up. 

“Would you come with me? My fiancé is still abroad checking a project” she looked at Connor hopefully. 

Connor buttoned his suit jacket and replied, “It wouldn’t be appropriate.”

“I have to walk down from the second floor later, and these high heels are quite high” she glanced ath daily life, but wearing heels for too long still causes some pain” 

She watched Connor and pleaded, “I don’t want my first appearance in months to be me tripping and making a fool of myself.” 

Connor looked at her ankle, furrowing his brow slightly, and finally agreed 

The next day. 

Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains onto Camila’s face. She slowly opened her eyes, staring blankly at Erica’s silhouette. Propping herself up in bed, she felt a wave of headache wash over her. She looked around and realized she was in Erica’s bedroom 

She remembered drinking a lot, but how she got back was a blur. 

The events of last night came flooding back. 

Haylie and Connor… 

Her heart clenched painfully, and tears involuntarily slid down her cheeks. 

Beep beep beep 

Camila heard the alarm on her phone and quickly got up to turn it off. 

“Cami, you’re awake already?” Erica, disturbed by the alarm, yawned and sat up. 

With her back to her, Camila quickly wiped her tears and forced a smile before turning around. “Just used to waking up early” 

Erica, noticing the tear stains around her eyes, said sympathetically. “It’s still early. Go back to sleep for a bit.” 

Camila shook her head. “I need to get to work.” 

Tve already called in sick for you.” 

Camila froze. “Called in sick? For who?? Me? You did?” 

“Mhm, last night, Connor brought you home,” Erica explained 

Camila’s mind buzzed, her complexion turning pale 

Erica pulled back the covers and reached for her hand, guiding her back to the bed. 

Camila sat on the edge of the bed, thoughts of Connor bringing a sour feeling to her heart. “He… 

“He scolded me for letting you drink! Erica huffed.
