Chapter 5
Upon reaching the restaurant, a bunch of fangirls surrounded Genille.
“Hey, Camille! Does the CEO eat spaghetti too? Every time Kirnpoke of the CEO, it was as if she was drunk.
“Yes, he does!” Camille lowered her head and wondered, “Isn’t the CEO a human too? Why wouldn’t he eat spaghetti
Kim sat opposite Camille and asked her courteously, “Can I collect the plate from the CEO later?
Camille was not sure what to say.
At I pm, the secretary pressed the intercom and informed the CHO, “Mr. Walter, someone from the restaurant is here to collect the plates,
“Okay,” Luke answered indifferently.
Kim excitedly ran toward the CEO’s office and knocked on the door. Luke’s deep voice was heard from inside, “Come in!”
Pushing open the door, Kim’s eyes fell on Luke’s handsome face. Luke, however, was too busy to even lift his head.
After Kim brought the plates into the kitchen, Camille noticed her supervisor, Ms. Jones, coming downstairs. She swiped a stern look at all of them and demanded, “Who went to the CEO’s office today? Did you not know you must knock on the CEO’s door before entering? Did you not know you are not supposed to change the person delivering and collecting the food?”
Camille took a peak at Kim and stood forward. “Ms. Jones, I promise there won’t be a second time!”
Ms. Jones glared at Camille, “I don’t wish to receive such complaints in the future again!”
Camille breathed a sigh of relief only after Ms. Jones left to head upstairs. Did the CEO really complain about the fact that the person collecting the plates was a different person?
Camille was uneasy the whole afternoon. Would the CEO fire her
It was finally time to get off work. While waiting at the bus stop outside Leicester Hotel, Kim tapped on Camille’s shoulders, “Camille, thank you for not telling Ms. Jones about me this afternoon!”
Camille smiled. “It’s nothing much…
“The CEO is coming out.”
Luke was standing next to the door of a racing car parked about 30 feet away. It seemed like he was about to get in the car.
Camille looked over, and at that exact moment, Luke was looking in her direction. The two made eye contact, scaring Camille out of her wits. “Kim, my bus is here. I’ll be leaving first
She was dying to escape.
Kim pointed at the bus and shouted after her, “Camille, you boarded the wrong bus! Your house is not in that direction!”
As Camille boarded the wrong bus, it was already dark when she reached home. Camille was having dinner with Estelle, and it was inevitable to bring up their workplace as a topic.
“Should I get my connections to switch you to another position? Estelle was at the company for a long time and naturally knew more people.
Upon hearing Estelle bringing up this issue, Camille immediately had indigestion.
Mon, De
Chapter 5
When Camille first started–work, she was hoping to do her job dutifully and wait for a promotion. However, in her current situation, it would be a miracle if she wasn’t getting fired by the CEO.
She dared not ask Estelle to switch her to a different department through her connections. If the CEO heard of it, it would only implicate Estelle.
“No, it’s alright. I’ll continue this for now.”
On the other side.
“Mr. Wahter!”
The butler saw Luke entering the Walters‘ residence villa and greeted him.
“Hello.” Luke turned around and saw his mother descending the stairs.
At the dining table, Helen Bronson stared at her son. She knew she could not change his mind but still gave it a shot anyway. “Rachelle fought with her parents for you. Now that she’s back, forget about the person from the past! My only wish is for you to bear a grandson for me!”
“We are not suitable for each other.” Luke was calm and indifferent. His words were final.
The next morning, Camille could not wait for her hair to dry completely. She grabbed two slices of bread and ran out of the house.
She was going to be late!
Honk! The sound of a car honking sounded underneath their apartment.
“Camille, let me send you there. You’ll be late otherwise.” Jordan pointed at his watch and said.
Indeed, if Camille were to wait for the bus, she would be late. She could not afford to make any more mistakes. She hurriedly got into Jordan’s car and asked, “Will you be late if you give me a ride?”
“No, I only have one surgery in the afternoon.” Jordan smiled and started to drive off.
Camille was ten minutes away from the morning meeting when she arrived at Leicester Hotel. She jumped off Jordan’s car
for the meeting, she was dashing forward with her head down. She had not noticed someone As she was about to be late f exiting Leicester Hotel and bumped right into a hard chest.
She frowned at the unique fragrance she was smelling.
She lifted her head. Seeing the person she bumped into, she panicked, and her face turned red. She anxiously apologized, Tm sorry, Mr. Walter…”
“Oh no! The morning meeting!” Camille grabbed her bag and continued to head toward the restaurant,
Luke glanced at the figure running away. His nose was filled with the smell of her fruity shampoo. He also noticed the bread crumbs on the side of her mouth.
He frowned. Was she getting down from a limited edition car?
After a few days at the restaurant, Camille started to adapt very well. She was in a new environment and was meeting new people. They were unaware she was once in prison and had no due about her past. Perhaps because of that Camille felt at case interacting with them.
On Friday, Camille rushed off to pick Allen up.

Chapter 5
She was running out of time, and hence had to hail a cab.
At the front door of the preschool, Allen was obediently holding onto his teacher’s hand. His small head was bobbing up and down, looking at the road. He thought to himself, “Why is mommy not here yet?”
The cab arrived, and Camille paid for the cab fare. Upon getting down from the cab, she saw Allen. Bending down, she hugged him and asked, “Were you obedient today. Allen?”
“I was, mommy!” Allen kissed his mother.
Allen thought to himself. “I want to tell mommy that there are two classmates I dislike, but Mr. Sawyer said I shouldn’t make mommy worried. No matter what happens, I should tell Mr. Sawyer instead of mommy.”
“Yes! Mommy knows Allen is the most well–behaved child! If there’s anything wrong, you have to tell mommy, okay?”
Camille stood up and greeted the young female teacher. Thank you for taking care of him today”
The female teacher smiled and said, “Allen is very obedient. He’s always complimenting his mommy, saying she’s very pretty! You are indeed beautiful!”
Camille’s face turned red instantly. Her son was more selfish than her! That trait of his wasn’t like hers at all.
At night, Luke sat on the sofa. His fingers were knocking on his notebook.
“Here’s the coffee you wanted. Sleep early” Helen felt sad for her son. It was already late, yet he was drinking coffee
Luke said, “Mr. and Mrs. Lucas from Termain will arrive at the Leicester Hotel in three days. There are some preparation! have to do to ensure nothing goes wrong.”
“Okay.” Helen nodded.
Suddenly, Helen thought of something. “I heard that… Trevor is returning
Luke paused, his expression turning harder than ever.
