A One Night Stand With My Boss (by Ela Osaretin) novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16

After she finished speaking, Camila walked towards the door without turning back.

Clad in a pencil skirt and a fitted blouse, her graceful figure was accentuated with each step. She opened the door, deliberately flipped her hair with a flirtatious flair, and then slammed it shut with a loud bang.

Connor was furing, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white

Back at her desk, Camila’s heart was still pounding fiercely. She hugged her head with both hands. “Camila, oh Camila, why can’t you just hold your tongue?” she muttered to herself. She sighed deeply, thinking about her possible unemployment.

Camila glanced at the prescription bottle, having only taken a few pills, and tossed it into the trash. She couldn’t afford to use her health Insurance and had paid over a thousand dollars out–of–pocket. However, the relief of knowing she wasn’t seriously ill made her feel much lighter.

As soon as it was time to start work, she hurriedly sent a message to Mr. Cash.

Camila: [Good aftemoon, Mr. Cash. Have you been busy these past few days without me?]

Mr. Cash [I’ve had to work overtime for two days without your assistance.]

Camila: Ill be back soon and ready to assist you at work again *smiley face“]

Mr. Cash was surprised. His prized assistant couldn’t even last a week at headquarters? But it was just as well. He really did need the

a week help.

Mr. Cash [That’s great looking forward to having you back.]

Camila responded with a smiley emoji. She just hoped Connor wouldn’t be too petty and keep her from returning to the branch office. For now, she was still Connor’s secretary.

She checked Connor’s schedule for the afternoon. He only had one meeting in the R&D department, and she needed to distribute the meeting materials in advance, which meant they wouldn’t cross paths.

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, a colleague from the finance department, Adrian, approached her with a financial report. “Camila, could you please take last quarter’s financial report to Mr. Connor?”
