Connor smiled and took his seat at the breakfast table.
After breakfast, Young drove to Camila's apartment buildingNôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
"You didn't drive? Did you walk here?" Camila asked, surprised.
"Yeah," Connor replied
Naturally, Camila sat in the passenger seat, while Conner, with a touch to his nose, resigned himself to the back seat Camila turned to him and asked, "You're not wearing a tie today. Did you forget it?"
"l'll put it on at the office," Connor replied with a secretive smile
Camila was puzzled. Connor was usually meticulous about his appearance. Why would he wait to wear his tie at the office? It wasn't until they were in Connor's lounge at work, and she saw the tie she had given him, that she finally got it.
"Help me with my tie,” Connor said softly, placing the tie in her hands.
Camila smiled, and her heart rate picked up slightly. She stood in front of him, slightly tilting her head back to look up at him.
Connor stood straight, his gaze lowered to her as his Adam's apple moved slightly. Her slender, pale hands adjusted his shirt at the chest, then gently wrapped the tie around his neck, threading one end through the loop. She then gently pulled on both ends of the tie, adjusting its length and tightness.
Connor instinctively wrapped his arms around her waist. Camila jumped, her heart tightening, and she unwittingly tightened her grip on the tie
With her pull, Connor leaned forward slightly, his gaze falling on her red lips, his eyes darkened as he captured the back of her head and couldn't resist kissing her.
"Mmm..." Camila’s hands still tightly clutched his tie. She’s afraid that someone might come in, her heart racing even as she was lost in the moment.

After a while, he broke away from her lips with a smirk.
Camila, breathing heavily, playfully hit him and scolded, "You scared me to death. What if someone had come in?”
Connor leaned in and kissed her lips lightly, chuckling, "This is my lounge. Who else could come in but you?"
Camila’s cheeks bumed as if on fire, her cool cupping her face as she glared at him, pretending to be angry as she turned her face away. Suddenly, Camila noticed something shimmering under the warm light in the wardrobe. She picked up the sparkling necklace, slightly stunned. She turned slightly, confused, “How did this necklace end up here?
Connor scoffed, visibly annoyed, "You ungrateful thing, you just threw away the necklace I gave you."
"Throw it away? Camila exclaimed, frowning, was missing. I even checked the” surveillance footage, only tox find out your rhad taken it." Content ‘belongs ike)
"I found it on the ground," Connor explained, "I thought you had deliberately thrown it away."
‘How coule do that! That day I was. wearing a “gown, and my makeup artist said the necklace didn’t match, SO I took it off, and then it was gone," Cainila said, her voice filled’ with Hurt.
Connor's mood lifted. His warm fingers took the necklace from her palm, whispering, "Let me put it on for you.” He carefully wrapped the necklace around her neck and gently fastened the clasp.
Camila touched the pendant, her eyes smiling. She looked up at the man before her, placed her hands on his shoulders, and gently kissed his lips, "Thank you.”
Connor cupped her cheeks, turning passive into dominant, and kissed her forcefully.
