Chapter 127 

“Everything looks normal on your health report.” Dr. Carter’s steady gaze met Camila’s as he spoke. 

Camila furrowed her brows slightly, a hint of barely noticeable tension in her voice. “Really? But why do I sometimes feel my heart racing? It’s so intense it feels like it might burst out of my chest?” 

Dr. Carter reviewed the report again carefully, then looked up gently, “My dear, I can assure you, there is nothing abnormal in this report.” 

He paused slightly, seemingly choosing his next words carefully. “Have you ever been in love?” 

Camila hesitated. If her relationship with Tucker counted, then yes. She nodded slightly. 

“Did you feel something similar then?” Dr. Carter continued to probe. 

Camila shook her head firmly. 

Dr. Carter smiled, a glint of understanding in his eyes. “Does this feeling only occur when a certain person is around?” 

Camila’s brows knitted together. “Doctor, are you suggesting that this feeling might be a physiological response to being infatuated?” 

Well, it seemed to happen mostly around Connor. 

Camila shivered involuntarily. No way. Did she have a crush on her boss? 

That wouldn’t do. Her feelings should only be the kind reserved for a financial benefactor! 

Dr. Carter nodded gently. “Exactly, my dear. The symptoms you’ve described are likely natural responses to an attraction. When we encounter someone who draws us in, our body releases hormones like adrenaline and dopamine, causing our heart rate to speed up. We even feel a sense of inexplicable nervousness.” 

Camila managed a smile. “I see, thank you. I’m relieved the report is fine.” 

Dr. Carter returned the smile warmly. 

As Camila walked down the hospital corridor, images of Connor flashed through her mind. He had a good physique paired with his impeccable looks. He was also young, handsome, and wealthy, undeniably the type many women would flock to. 

Camila tapped her forehead. He was her boss. She couldn’t harbor inappropriate thoughts! The company had a strict no–fraternization policy, and some of her predecessors had been fired for lesser transgressions. 

Her life goal was to make money to support her mother. She couldn’t afford to lose her job! Besides, Connor didn’t even like her. 

‘Snap out of it, Camila!‘ 

Her phone rang. It was Erica. 

“Where are you? I’ve bought some cupcake ingredients, and I’m now headed to your place.”

“I’m at Fairmount Hospital. Can you swing by to pick me up?” 

“Hospital? Why are you at the hospital?” Erica’s voice immediately tensed. “What happened? Are you feeling alright?” 

Camila quickly explained, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. Just went for a routine check–up, and all indicators are normal. No need to panic.” Erica seemed to relax a bit, but her voice still carried a hint of urgency. “Alright, stay put. I’m on my way to get you. Don’t wander around. Just wait there.” 

After hanging up, Camila slowly walked toward the hospital lobby. 

In less than half an hour, Erica arrived at the hospital entrance, and Camila bent down to get into the passenger seat. 

As soon as Erica saw Camila, her sharp eyes scanned her from head to toe, her face filled with concern. “Camila, are you really okay?” Erica’s voice was eager. “You look a bit pale. Are you sure you’re not feeling unwell?” 

“I’m really fine. It was just a check–up. Look, here’s the report.” Camila handed the health report to Erica. 

Erica took the report, carefully checking each indicator, her brows gradually smoothing, “Hmm, indeed, there’s nothing wrong. But what made you decide to get a check–up all of a sudden?”
