Connor watched Cam, her cheeks glowing with a rosy blush, her eyes sparkling with a certain allure. He swallowed hard, feeling his throat tighten.


    A voice in his head practically shouted, *Stop staring or you''re gonna lose it.*


    He cleared his throat and took a deep breath. "I''m gonna go take a shower," he said, his voiceing out rough.


    Cam snapped back to reality, tugging on his jacket. Connor paused.


    Her face was bright red, and she warned, "Don''t change your clothes."


    If he did, people might start gossiping about things that would make her want to bury herself in embarrassment.


    Connor raised an eyebrow, a yful smile forming as he kissed her glossy lips lightly, "Alright."


    Not trusting himself to stay any longer, he quickly headed to the lounge.


    Cam sat on her desk, letting out a soft sigh, trying to calm her racing heart. Once her cheeks cooled down, she got off the desk, straightened her clothes, and grabbed a random folder from his bookshelf, pretending to be busy as she walked out of his office.


    Back at her seat, she pulled out a small mirror. Her cheeks were still a bit pink, and her lipstick had beenpletely kissed off. She reapplied it, sighing to herself, *Dating really uses up a lot of lipstick!* Once she wasposed, she opened a file and dove back into her work.


    Erica texted her abouting over for a barbecue tonight, mentioning Logan would be there too.


    Cam checked Connor''s schedule; no social engagements, but he had a meeting at four.


    She texted Erica back, [I''m good, but Connor has a meeting; he might bete.]


    Erica replied, [OK]


    Not long after, the ss walls of Connor''s office turned clear again.


    Cam identally met his gaze through the ss, her cheeks heating up all over again. She quickly looked away, bowing her head.


    Patting her cheeks, she took a deep breath and focused on her work.


    Cam printed out the meeting agenda and brought it into his office.


    She stood close to the door, always ready to bolt if Connor stood up.


    Connor found her behavior both adorable and amusing.


    Cam said, "Erica and Mr. Logan areing over to my ce for a barbecue tonight. I''ll head home after work, and you cane after your meeting?" "Sure, I''ll try to get there early."


    "Mr. Connor, if there''s nothing else, I''ll head out."


    Connor held back augh and nodded.


    Cam left his office and continued with her tasks.

    In the conference room.


    Bryan stifled a yawn behind his hand.


    Connor nced at his watch and scanned the executives with a sharp look.


    He frowned and signaled the presenting executive to stop.


    "Get to the point," he cut off the lengthy exnation.


    The executive paused, a bit embarrassed, and quickly streamlined his thoughts to deliver the key information.


    After that, every executive reported more briskly.


    When all had finished, Connor stood up.


    "Meeting adjourned."


    Bryan and the other executives exchanged puzzled looks. Why had today''s meeting ended in just ny minutes?


    Near the end of the day, the HR


    department issued a notice

    romances, advising employees
