Chapter 26
“Ugh, I always ask you to move in, but you never agree,” Erica sighed helplessly
The events of last night had been terrifying, leaving Camila anxious all night. She only managed to fall asleep as the dawn barely broke. Cedarhill Estate
David glanced at the clock, looking toward the door now and then. When Camila didn’t show up, he decided to go wake Connor himself. In the pitch-dark bedroom, the man on the bed slept soundly as David pressed the automatic curtain control.
When sunlight invaded the room, Connor furrowed his brows and shut his eyes tightly, evidently imitated, pulling the covers over his face with clear dissatisfaction and annoyance.
Mr. Connor, time to get up,” David called softly.
He didn’t respond.
“Breakfast is ready, David said as he pulled away his blanket.
“I’m not having breakfast,” the man replied gruffly. His tone was heavy with resentment, and his expression was as dark as a storm cloud.
David, resigned, felt the resurgence of Connor’s notonous morning mood that had been absent for a few days
“It’s time for breakfast, Mr. Connor David continued softly, persisting for a full ten minutes.
Annoyed, Connor finally threw off his covers, sitting up in bed with a scowl, roughly running his hands through his tousled hair.
The moment Connor closed the front door behind him, he seemed like a different person. The previous imitability vanished, replaced by a clear and composed demeanor.
Inside, David looked at the untouched gourmet breakfast on the table and deeply sighed
“Mr. Connor, Tucker was rushed to the hospital last night. He’s been saved, but he’s in a bad shape. His penis might not work again. We’ve settled with his family for a compensation of fifty million. They’ve agreed to leave the country immediately after discharge and there will be no further issues,” the driver reported
“When is he being discharged?”
“He’ll need to stay in the hospital for about two weeks”
“Accidents happen all the time, right? Connor said lightly, a faint smirk playing on his lips
The driver nodded, “Yes, getting caught in a robbery is quite common”
Connor thought for a moment, then said. “The area where Camila is staying has significant safety risks. Have someone clean up my apartment at Belleview Heights.”
“Right away, sir,” the driver responded.
Connor opened his contacts on his phone, chuckled softly when he saw the name [Camilal and dialed.
Camila looked at her phone, recognizing the number and answered, “Hello?”
Connor frowned slightly. “It’s me.”
Hearing the familiar voice, Camila bolted upright, startling Erica awake beside her. “Mr. Connor, good moming,” Camila blurted out nervously
Erica leaned in closer to listen.
“I have a small house in Belleview Heights. You can move in there,” Connor said
“Wow, he’s spoiling you, huh!” Enca, still groggy, blurted out without thinking.
Camila, shocked by Enca’s bold comment gasped and stared wide-eyed at her. Enca quickly covered her mouth, looking apologetic. Connor’s lips twitched slightly, and his brow furrowed. “Don’t overthink it. It’s just that you’re my assistant, and your current place isn’t safe. It’s simply a perk I provide as an employer”
At that moment, Camila truly wanted to punch Erica. “Thank you Mr. Connor, but it’s okay. I have a place to stay”
Connor’s lips curved into a faint smile “Camila, don’t worry too much. My apartment is empty, and it would be convenient for work if you stayed there.”
