A One Night Stand With My Boss (by Ela Osaretin) novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40

Camila looked at him puzzled. “Take it… where?”

“From now on, the driver will deliver two lunch boxes, one for you,” Connor said nonchalantly.

“For me?” Camila was flattered.

Connor looked at her with a face full of disdain. “Look at you, you’re as thin as a bean sprout. A gust of wind could knock you over. You’ve only been at headquarters for a short while and you’ve lost weight. People might think I am mistreating my assistant.”

Camila was a bit surprised. Indeed, she had lost a couple of pounds since arriving at headquarters, but she had slimmed down exactly where she needed to, without losing an ounce where it mattered.

She straightened her back, showing off her shapely figure, and said indignantly, “Bean sprout? You call this figure a bean sprout?”

Fine, you have a great figure,” Connor chuckled slyly, then quickly changed the subject, “How are the mid–year performance reports coming along? Don’t waste time going out to eat. Have a quick lunch and get back to work.”

Camila gave a professional fake smile. “Typical capitalist, almost had me moved.” She thought to herself.

She picked up her own lunch, smiled, and said, “Understood, I’ll eat out so as not to delay work.”

Returning to her desk, she glanced at the door of the president’s office and reluctantly texted her lunch buddy, Tina.

Camila: [I can’t go out for lunch with you anymore. Mr. Connor wants me to rush the work.]

Tina: [What? He used to be a nice guy. Now he’s even squeezing your lunch break?]

Camila: [Well, he’s a capitalist, after all. Gotta eat fast and keep working.]

When she opened her lunch, Camila’s gloomy mood was instantly healed by the delicious and free meal. Considering that the food was delicious and free, she unilaterally forgave Connor.
