A One Night Stand With My Boss

Connor watched Camila, 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 voice coming out rough.

Camila 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 playful smile forming as he kissed her glossy lips lightly, "Alright."

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

Camila 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 been completely kissed off. She reapplied it, sighing to herself, *Dating really uses up a lot of lipstick!* Once she was composed, she opened a file and dove back into her work.

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

Camila 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 be late.]

Erica replied, [OK]

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

Camila accidentally met his gaze through the glass, 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.

Camila 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.

Camila said, "Erica and Mr. Logan are coming over to my place for a barbecue tonight. I'll head home after work, and you can come 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 a laugh and nodded.

Camila left his office and continued with her tasks.

In the conference room.

Bryan stifled a yawn behind his hand.

Connor glanced 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 explanation.

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 ninety minutes?

Near the end of the day, the HR

department issued a notice

abolishing the rule against office

romances, advising employees

relationships to maintain

professionalism and not let it affect their work.

The company's group chat exploded!

Jase was the first to comment, [Mr. Connor is truly a visionary leader!]

He boasted with another

[Thank

Marissa chimed in, [Pum
