A One Night Stand With My Boss (by Ela Osaretin) novel Chapter 206

Camila furrowed her brow slightly as her gaze fell onto the coffee table. It was cluttered with an ashtray filled like a miniature mountain and bottles of whiskey carelessly tipped over.

Her heart sank.

“Mr. Connor?” she called out softly, her voice barely a whisper, but received no response.

She glanced toward the door of the lounge.

Hesitating for a moment, she set the breakfast she had brought aside.

She pushed open the lounge door and found Connor lying on the bed, his eyes closed and his complexion pale, a look of exhaustion etched across his features.

Standing by the bedside, Camila felt a pang of sorrow seeing him like this.

She gently nudged Connor’s shoulder. “Mr. Connor, it’s time to wake up.”

Connor didn’t react, continuing to lie with his eyes shut.

“Mr. Connor,” Camila called again.

Slowly, Connor opened his eyes, his gaze foggy as he stared at Camila.

Her heart skipped a beat.

She steadied her breathing and managed a small smile. “Mr. Connor, David has prepared breakfast for you. Would you like to get up now, or do you wish to sleep a bit longer? It’s 8:30 in the morning.”

Connor remained silent, just silently observing her.

Camila felt a flutter of panic under his intense gaze, unsure of what to do.

Suddenly, Connor reached out and grasped Camila’s wrist forcefully.

Camila gasped, attempting to pull away, but Connor’s grip was as tight as a vise.

“Mr. Connor!” Her voice trembled.

Suddenly, with a strong pull, Connor drew Camila down onto the bed beside him.

Camila cried out as she fell next to Connor.

Her heartbeat raced, her mind swirling in confusion.
