Chapter 24


    Cam nodded, her eyes fixed on Connor “Will he die? Will you be in trouble?” Although Tucker’s demise wouldn’t be a loss,


    society was govered byw, and she didn’t wish to see Connor face prison because of her.


    “I don’t know if he’ll die, but I won’t be in trouble. My family has some connections, Connor said lightly.


    “Thank you” Cam said, her eyes brimming with gratitude.


    Connor chuckled softly. “Tm your boss. Thepany is responsible for your safely.”


    He paused, then asked, “Do you have a ce to go?”


    Cam patted her jeans pocket, frowning slightly.


    “Your phone is in my coat,” Connor mentioned,


    “Why would my phone be with you?” Cam looked puzzled.


    “You left it in the car.”


    “Were you bringing my phone to me?” Cam was surprised.


    Connor hummed in affirmation


    “Thank you…sic


    Cam then called Erica. Im going to stay at a friend’s tonight. She lives at Willowbrook Estate, Cam said.


    Connor rolled down the car window, “To Willowbrook Estate.”


    It wasn’t long before they reached Erica’s ce, which was nearby. Cam looked down at her bare feet, embarrassed.


    “Here, wear these,” Connor tossed her a pair of men’s slippers.


    Cam slipped on the slippers and took off the coat she had draped over herself to hand back to Connor. “Thank you, Mr. Connor,


    for your coat”


    “If you think it’s fine to go out like that, it’s up to you.”


    Cam looked down and suddenly realized she was scantily d, wearing only a demi-cup bra, her chest almost fully exposed.


    Her ears tumed instantly hot, blushing to the point of almost bleeding.


    Embarrassed, she quickly put on Connor’s suit jacket and fastened the buttons.


    Connor chuckled softly. “Take the day off tomorrow. You don’t have toe to the office.”


    At that moment, Cam just wanted to escape. She turned her back to Connor, muttered a “thank you, and immediately opened


    the car door to flee.

    The moment the vi door opened, Erica’s pupils shrank, and her initially smiling face instantly fell. She saw Cam in front of her,


    with disheveled hair, wearing an oversized suit and mismatched slippers, looking bothical and disheveled


    “What happened?”


    “It’s a long story,” Cam exhaled deeply.


    “What exactly happened?” Erica pulled Cam to sit on the sofa.


    Pain crossed Cams face as she


    lled the recent events, still feeling the aftershock. Just as she mentioned Tucker’s attempt to assault her, Erica leaped up,


    grabbing a kitchen knife from the table, mes nearly bursting from her eyes. “That b a s t a r d! I’ll skin him alive!”


    Cam quickly held her back. “I haven’t finished yet…


    She told Erica the whole story. Erica pped her thigh, her face full of admiration. “I had no idea Connor had it in him. He’s really


    risen in my estimation! You should really thank him properly!”


    Cam’s brows furrowed deeply, her eyes filed with worry, her hands tightly sped. “Erica, I’m scared… could Mr. Connor end up


    in jail?”


    “Surely not?” Erica said uncertainly, then, after a moment’s thought, suggested, “Maybe ask Wesley?”
