A One Night Stand With My Boss (by Ela Osaretin) novel Chapter 185

The next day, at 8:15 AM, Camila arrived at Connor's front door. She adjusted her mood, took a deep breath, and for a moment, she felt incredibly calm.

When the door opened and she saw Connor, her breathing faltered for a few seconds.

He was sitting on the sofa and stood up when he saw her. His eyes fixed on her intently, sensing a faint sadness about her that made him slightly concerned.

He was about to ask about her well-being when Camila spoke first. "Good morning, Mr. Connor," she said, bowing slightly, her professional smile in place.

Connor responded, but his gaze lingered on her face for a moment longer. He noticed her eyes were slightly swollen as if she had been crying.

"Camila, you're finally here. Come join us for breakfast," David said with a smile.

Connor frowned slightly, discreetly observing Camila’s reaction. He pulled out a chair, gesturing for her to sit.

Camila returned the smile and declined, "Mr. Connor, I’ve already had breakfast."

Then, to David, she added, "David, you don’t need to prepare breakfast for me in the future. I’ll eat before I come."

Connor was momentarily taken aback, his brow furrowing unconsciously. He felt an unusual air about Camila's behavior but couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was.

David asked, "But wouldn’t it be more convenient to eat here?"

"Don't trouble yourself," Camila said, still smiling.

Since she didn’t elaborate further, David chose not to press the issue. Camila turned back to Connor, her eyes carrying a hint of apology. "Mr. Connor, I’ve enrolled in some kickboxing classes recently. I apologize if it has disturbed your rest."

Connor paused, unsure why Camila was telling him this. He glanced away and took a napkin to wipe his mouth, responding simply, "Okay."

"Mr. Connor, enjoy your meal. I’ll wait over there," Camila said politely, nodding and smiling before heading to the sofa.
