Cam quietly ate her meal, asionally sneaking nces at Connor. His features were distinct, as
if sculpted by a divine hand–handsome yetposed. He was absorbed in hisputer, his long
fingers constantly tapping. Indeed, a man focused on his work was truly charming.
She shook her head, chiding herself for her wandering thoughts.
Connor nced over hisptop and noticed her enjoying her meal, his lips curling into a subtle
smile. Soon, Cam had polished off her food and identally let out a satisfied burp.
“Finished?” Connor asked.
“Yes, sir. All clear!” Cam replied with augh. She pulled out a napkin to wipe her mouth clean
and started tidying up the coffee table.
Connor opened his drawer, took out a box of cigarettes, and lit one. A thin trail of smokezily rose
into the air.
Cam, catching the scent of the smoke, looked up. Their eyes met briefly before both quickly
looked away, busying themselves with their tasks.
Frowning slightly, Cam held her breath and briskly wiped the coffee table with a napkin. When
Connor noticed her difort, he extinguished his cigarette and turned on the air purifier.
Hearing the machine start up, Cam looked over and saw he had stopped smoking. She took a
deep breath and picked up the empty lunchbox. “Mr. Connor, I’ve cleaned up. I’ll head out first.”

hadn’t had lunch. It would be irresponsible of her if he got a stomach ailment from hunger. She
hurried downstairs and ordered a beef and egg sandwich from the diner.
Back at the office, she knocked on Connor’s door.
“Come in.” Connor looked up, surprised to see her. He frowned slightly and asked, “Didn’t I tell you
to leave?”
Cam ced the mealbox in front of him. “Mr. Connor, you missed lunch. I got you a sandwich.”
Connor’s eyes narrowed slightly, then he opened the mealbox. He smiled faintly and said. “Looks
delicious, thank you.”
“You’re wee, I’ll be off then,” Cam said with a smile.
After she left, he unwrapped the sandwich and took a bite, his face expressing sheer satisfaction.
The day’s fatigue seemed to vanish with that bite. The diner’s sandwiches were indeed good.
The next day at noon.
When Cam went downstairs to pick up Connor’s lunchbox, the driver handed her two.
“Why are there two–today?”
“I’m not sure, maybe there’s a client visiting?” The driver was also puzzled. He had received
