A One Night Stand With My Boss (by Ela Osaretin) novel Chapter 204

“Could it have fallen somewhere? I’m sorry, I was in a hurry and didn’t check properly.”

“Okay, thank you.” Camila hung up the phone, staring blankly ahead.

She slowly stood up and walked out of the security room.

Camila returned to the dressing room and found the cleaning lady's information.

“If you happen to find my necklace while cleaning, could you please give me a call?”

The lady agreed cheerfully.

Camila sat quietly in the makeup chair, feeling a void in her heart.

She touched her bare neck.

With the loss of the necklace, it was time to end this unrequited love and let go of these hopeless feelings.

She sighed deeply, then gathered herself and changed back into her business attire.

Despite the turmoil inside, she maintained a calm facade.

She exited the dressing room and headed toward her workspace.

The grand opening event was still underway, and everything was proceeding smoothly.

She focused intently on every detail, ensuring everything went according to plan.

She breathed a sigh of relief only when the store closed for the night.

“Camila, thank you for today,” a colleague from the planning department said appreciatively.

“I heard Mr. Connor left right after the ribbon-cutting,” her colleague added, observing Camila’s expression tentatively.

Camila nodded slightly, saying little.

Her heart felt clogged. She was struggling to breathe.

With the event over, Camila’s work was temporarily paused.

She quietly packed her things, preparing to leave.

Connor sat alone in his dimly lit office, his gaze empty as he stared out into the night.

Moonlight streamed through the window, casting a melancholy shadow on his somber face.
