A One Night Stand With My Boss ( Maia Sanchez )
Chapter 233

Camila received a message from Alan and brought Haylie up to the parlor.

"Ms. Haylie, would you like coffee or tea?" Camila asked politely.

Haylie glanced up at her with a cold tone. "Coffee."

"Please wait a moment." Camila smiled slightly, then turned to leave.

The door opened, and Connor appeared at the doorway.

Connor stared intently at Camila, his eyes complex, but Camila remained composed, subtly stepping aside to clear the path.

Connor looked away and walked past her into the parlor. Alan followed him in.

Camila gently closed the door and went to the break room to prepare the coffee.

At that moment, a few colleagues from the secretarial office gathered around, and their faces were full of curiosity.

"Camila, is Mr. Connor in the parlor?" one colleague asked eagerly.

Camila nodded, placing a cup under the coffee machine and pressing the button.

"Wow, this is big news!" another colleague exclaimed excitedly. "Did you know? Haylie is rumored to be Mr. Connor's love interest, and they've always been said to have a special relationship." Camila frowned slightly. "I'm not really sure."

"Oh come on, Camila. Don't play coy," one colleague teased with a smile. "You're Mr. Connor's personal assistant. You must know some secrets."

Camila responded coolly, "I don't know anything."

The coffee machine began to hum.

Seeing this, the colleagues decided not to pry further and returned to their seats.

Back in the parlor, Connor sat on the sofa across from Haylie. His tone was sharp. "What are you doing here?"

Haylie removed her sunglasses, revealing her pitiful, teary eyes. "Connor, I just announced my breakup with York, and now the paparazzi are everywhere. I have nowhere to go...' Her voice trembled slightly, "I'm so scared."

Connor frowned, "This is a workplace, and there are many people around. Do you think hiding here is appropriate?"

Tears fell from Haylie's eyes as she looked down and wiped them away. "I understand. I'm just... I'm just too frightened. I don't know what to do."

Connor scoffed, "How can you not find a place to stay?"

Haylie shook her head.

Connor turned to Alan. "Find a hotel for Ms. Haylie."

"I don't want to stay at a hotel." Haylie shook her head pitifully. "I'm scared. Can't you just let me stay with you..."

Connor looked at her. "I'm seeing someone, and your being here could cause unnecessary misunderstandings." Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Haylie's expression shifted slightly upon hearing Connor's reply, but she quickly regained her composure. "Is it that secretary from earlier?"

Connor remained silent, not denying it.

"Connor, I can explain to her. I really have nowhere else to go right now." Haylie's voice carried a hint of distress. "I just need a place to hide for a while, and once this blows over, I'll leave." "You don;t have to say more. I've done all I can for you," Connor said emotionlessly.

Haylie looked at Connor, feigning a helpless smile. "If it weren't for my inability to dance anymore, I wouldn't have entered show business, and I wouldn't have met York..."

"You saved me from a car accident. I'm sorry for the trouble, and I'm grateful." Connor's gaze hardened as he looked at her coldly. "But that doesn't mean you can use me."
