He watched Camila and flashed a smile, “No worries, your scream just startled me a bit.”

With a sheepish grin, Camila replied, “Sorry, I was just so scared.”

Connor waved it off, “It’s okay. Let’s hurry up and get out of here before those locusts decide to come back.” He made a conscious effort to keep his tone calm and natural.

Camila nodded.

Connor tumed and started walking back to the hotel, with Camila following him. She glanced around nervously, dreading the return of

the locusts.

Ding-

The hotel elevator doors opened on Camila’s floor, Hesitating a moment, she spoke up. “Mr. Connor, should I iron your shirt?”

“No need, you go and rest, Connor said.

“Goodnight, Mr.Connor, Camila said as she handed him back his suit jacket.

Taking the jacket, Connor looked into Camila’s eyes and gently responded, “Goodnight”

The elevator doors slowly closed, separating them.

Back in her room, Camila took out the treasures she had collected that day and admired them once again.

Suddenly, she got a call from Claire.

“Mare came to the shop today,” Claire said over the phone.

“Theard he closed down many of his shops, his wife divorced him, took the money, and fled abroad, and Scott got detained for drunk driving” A smirk of disdain crossed Claire’s face, “Broke and desperate, he comes crying and begging to recognize you again.”

Camila continued, “Seeing you with Cole would make me very happy. I just want you to have a happy life.”

There was a pause on the other end of the line. Claire sighed, “Alright, Ill handle it!

After hanging up, Camila stared out at the sparkling stars, her heart filled with complex emotions. She sincerely hoped her mother would pursue her own happiness.

Should she also be brave and take a step towards Connor?

In the Presidential Suite, Connor stared at his phone screen, his emotions tangled. He put down his phone, lit a cigarette, and sank into deep thought.

The phone screen was still lit.
