    “Working under Mr. Connor is a great opportunity. He’s a fantastic boss, and you’ll learn a lot from


    him. Cherish this chance.” Mr. Cash shrugged, sighing, “Looks like I need to hire a new assistant


    now.”


    “By the way, your boyfriend Tucker came looking for you at the officest week. I sent him away.


    Didn’t you tell him you’ve moved to the headquarters?”


    At the mention of Tucker, Cam shuddered with aversion. “We broke up,” she said tly.


    “Good riddance, that guy was never right for you. Chris from marketing will be thrilled to hear this.


    Everyone at the branch knows he’s got a soft spot for you,” John chuckled.


    Cam forced a smile. “I’m not interested in dating right now.”


    “Take your time. You’re a catch, so there’s no shortage of admirers. You know, the folks from the


    R&D department here at the headquarters are golden bachelors. Once thepany goes public,


    they’ll even get stock options, and those are some solid assets. When you arrived, several people


    discreetly inquired about you. I told them you were taken, and they were quite disappointed. I’ll let


    them know you’re single now,” John said.


    Cam shook her head vigorously, rmed. “No, let’s just say I have a boyfriend. I just want to


    focus on my work.” Having lost faith in love after what happened with Tucker, she had decided to


    focus solely on her career.


    Mr. Cash conceded, “Alright, you’re still young, so no rush. I’m off to see Mr. Connor now. Drop by


    the branch when you can. Everyone


    misses you.”


    “Sure. I’ll treat everyone to dinner when I get the chance,” Cam replied with a smile,


    “Great”


    Lately, Cam sensed that Mr. Connor’s mood was off. As a businessman, he prioritized profits.


    Could he be regretting the generous benefits he had given her? She worried about potentially losing


    her job.


    Fortunately, the delivery from the luxury brand store arrived, giving her a chance to show her


    gratitude.


    Unwrapping the package, she gently touched the brand’s logo, reassured by its prestige. Surely, Mr.


    Connor wouldn’t disdain it.


    Cedarhill Estate.


    Cam pushed open the door to Connor’s bedroom, which was shrouded in darkness. The curtains


    were drawn tightly, blocking out any sliver of sunlight.

    She tiptoed to the window and swiftly pulled open the heavy drapes. Sunlight filtered through the


    white sheers, brightening the entire


    room.


    The sunlight softlynded on the man’s face, forcing his eyes open. He frowned slightly, reluctantly


    sitting up, and his expression softened upon seeing Cam.


    “Good morning, Mr. Connor, Cam greeted with a smile..


    Connor stretched. His silk pajamas slipped slightly to reveal his well–defined torso. Cam’s eyes


    inadvertently lingered on his muscr chest.


    A smirk appeared on Connor’s face as he teased, “Seen enough?”


    Cam’s ears instantly turned red, as if all her blood had rushed there. Her eyes darted away, and


    she turned around, fanning herself


    with her hand.


    Connor remained silent, just watching her. Feeling his gaze on her back, Cam awkwardly ced


    the gift box on the bed and chuckled nervously, “Mr. Connor, thank you for your bravery that one


    time and for the matter with the house. This gift is for you.” Then, she dashed out of his bedroom as


    fast as she could.


    Connor chuckled, reaching for the elegantly wrapped box. Upon opening it, he found a tie with his


    initials embroidered on it. She was quite thoughtful.
