Camila’s face relaxed when she heard the price, letting out a sigh of relief. She brightened up, a playful grin spreading across her face.”Phew, I was so worried! If that bracelet had cost thousands, I’d be too scared to wear it. I’d be heartbroken if I scratched it.”Connor watched her mischievous expression and couldn’t resist giving her nose a gentle pinch, chuckling. “Silly girl, it’s just jewelry. Nothing is worth more than you.” Camila nodded, her face glowing with a sweet smile.Connor gazed at her for a few moments. “Can I get a hug?” he asked, arms open wide, playfully whining, “I need to recharge.” Camila laughed, shaking her head.Connor raised an eyebrow, stretched out his arms, and pulled her into a warm embrace, lowering his head to softly kiss her neck. Camila felt a tingling sensation shoot through her body. She pushed lightly against Connor, surprised, her cheeks turning pink. “Connor!”He didn’t stop, leaving a visible mark on her neck before he finally pulled away, looking satisfied.Camila glared at him, slightly annoyed. “What are you doing?”Connor released her, a triumphant smile spreading across his face.

Wearing her scarf while typing at her keyboard, a colleague from finance walked over with some documents and asked in surprise.”Camila, the office is pretty warm with the heating on. Why are you still wearing a scarf?”Camila touched the scarf, smiling awkwardly. “Really? I just feel a bit chilly.””You might be a bit run-down; you need to take care of yourself,” the colleague said, concern in his eyes. “I have a great recipe for a nourishing dish. I’ll bring it next week for you to try.”Camila quickly waved her hands. “Thanks, but there’s no need. I’m not great at cooking. I think soaking my feet in hot water will help.””Oh, soaking your feet is a good idea too,” her colleague nodded, then handed her the documents. “Could you please get Mr. Connor to sign these?”Camila took the documents with a smile.Entering Connor’s office, she handed him the documents.
