    Connory in bed, his heart filled with regret and confusion as he listened to Cam''s footsteps


    fading away.


    His gaze fell upon the messy sheets, still carrying traces of Cam''s scent.

    After a moment, he rose from the bed and walked over to the wardrobe. Opening it, he immediately


    spotted the tie and ne from the night before.


    He had intended to throw them away but had retrieved them from the trash can after his night of


    drinking.


    Holding the tie and ne, a mix of emotions flooded through him. He carefully folded the tie and


    ced it back in the wardrobe, sighing deeply.


    He then grabbed some clothes and stepped into the bathroom, turning on the cold shower and


    letting the icy water wash over his weary face and body.

    Cam closed the door of the lounge, trying to calm the turmoil inside her. She drank most of a


    bottle of mineral water, which helped her clear her head.


    The office was filled with the smell of smoke and alcohol, making her feel ufortable, so she


    opened the window and turned on the venttion system.


    She nced at the messy coffee table and knew the cleaning staff couldn''te in as long as he


    was there.


    She disposed of the cigarette butts in the trash and set the empty bottles aside. His ck matte


    lighter was on the coffee table, which she wiped clean and ced next to the cigarette box.


    After tidying up the coffee table, she went to make Connor a cup of coffee.


    She also poured a ss of warm water and some hangover medicine.


    She set them down near his breakfast on the coffee table.


    After freshening up, Connor opened the door of the lounge and immediately saw Cam bent over,


    arranging breakfast on the coffee table. Her expression was serious and focused.


    Sunlight fell on her, giving her a serene and gentle appearance.


    Connor found it hard to look away from her.


    After a moment, he walked over to her.


    The sound of his footsteps made Cam pause for a second. She took a deep breath and slowly


    turned around.


    Connor stood before her in a ck shirt and ck trousers.


    Cam straightened up, trying to keep her voice calm. "Mr. Connor, your breakfast and hangover


    remedy."


    "Have you had breakfast?" Connor''s voice was deep and rich, his eyes intensely focused on her.


    "Yes, Mr. Connor, please enjoy your meal," Cam replied sinctly.


    She wiped her hands and left the office.


    Back at her desk, Cam opened her messaging app to find thepany chat group lit up with over


    99 notifications.


    She had been too busy to check messages the day before.


    Scrolling through the group chat, she noticed 659 unread messages from yesterday.


    The first was a picture of an LED screen Howard had used to woo her. The chat was buzzing with


    comments about Howard''s pursuit.


    [I thought Mr. Howard had given up after sending those flowersst time, but he''s still hopeful!]


    [Cam isn''t swayed by money, so admirable.]


    [With a fortune of hundreds of billions, Mr. Howard sure is persistent.]


    [It''s a bit embarrassing for Mr. Howard. His high-profile love gestures were turned down.]


    Someone had posted a photo of John in the chat.


    [Cam''s boyfriend looks average, nothing special...]


    [Choosing love over material wealth, how touching...]


    Cam quickly skipped over the discussions about her.


    [What''s up with Mr. Connor today? So many documents unsigned...]


    The employees privately created this group without anyone from management.


    [He seems in a really bad mood today.]


    [He looks terrible. Like he''s under a lot of pressure. Everyone''s keeping their distance.]


    [Cam,e back soon. He isn''t signing off, and finance won''t release funds. *crying*]
