A One Night Stand With My Boss (by Ela Osaretin) novel Chapter 385

"I always looked up to him, but I never thought he'd be this kind of person," Mr. Thompson blurted out, his voice dripping with disappointment and outrage. "Camila has a boyfriend, and he has a girlfriend!"

Bryan watched him, trying to suppress a laugh. His face turned beet red from the effort.

He gave Mr. Thompson a reassuring pat on the shoulder, keeping his tone calm. "Mr. Thompson, let's not jump to conclusions. Maybe these two are actually together?"

Mr. Thompson paused, the anger in his eyes giving way to surprise as he turned to Bryan. "You mean... Camila might be the future Mrs. Boss?"

Bryan raised an eyebrow and smiled, not saying a word, but his expression said it all.

Mr. Thompson's jaw dropped. "Really?"

Unable to contain his excitement, he exclaimed, "Wow, Mr. Connor and Camila are together!"

Bryan quickly covered his mouth, whispering, "Keep it down! We don’t want everyone to hear."

He glanced around, making sure no one else had noticed, then let go.

Realizing his mistake, Mr. Thompson chuckled awkwardly and whispered back, "Sorry, I got too excited. I can't believe Mr. Connor and Camila are a thing; this is huge news!"

Bryan nodded, "Exactly."

"Got it."

The annual gala had finally arrived.

Camila spent the day running around, overseeing everything to ensure the evening went off without a hitch.

As the gala started, employees and invited partners began to arrive.

Camila, dressed in a custom-made deep blue gown that perfectly matched her demeanor, stood at the edge of the stage, discussing last-minute details with the host.

The hall was buzzing; women, dressed to the nines, chattered excitedly.

The men were amazed, realizing how many beautiful women worked at the company, usually unnoticed.
