Connor rose to his feet and approached her
With a playful smile, Camila teased, “You know how to wash dishes?”
Connor slightly furrowed his brow at the question and sheepishly responded, “Uh, yeah.”
Unable to hold back, Camila burst into laughter. “Mr. Connor, the faucet has hot water. I can handle the dishes.”
Connor paused, taken aback. He rarely set foot in the kitchen, so he could only chuckle awkwardly, “I see, I actually had no idea.”
Watching him, Camila couldn’t help but laugh again. “Mr. Connor, no need to pretend, let me do it.”
Connor nodded, “Alright then.”
Camila slipped on some gloves, turned on the warm water, and began washing the dishes. Connor stood beside her, quietly watching.
Camila’s hair, not tied up after drying, fell across her eyes, and she pushed it back with her arm.
Notcing this, Connor gently tucked her stray hair behind her ear. His touch was light, causing Camila to pause, her heart pounding rapidly as a blush crept onto her face.
Connor noticed her reaction and immediately asked with concern, “Are you feeling unwell again?”
Camila shook her head, took a deep breath to calm herself, and continued washing the dishes. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
“Do you
have your passport?”
Camila turned to him, a hint of confusion in her eyes, and nodded lightly, “Yes.”
“Send your passport details to Alan. Prepare for a business trip after the Thanksgiving break.”
Hearing this, Camila’s lips curved into an excited smile. “Where are we going?”
“Saudi Arabia.”
A spark of excitement flashed in Camila’s eyes. Since she had gotten her passport, she had yet to travel abroad, and now her first business trip was to Saudi Arabia.
This thrilling news filled her with excitement.
“Really? Can I really go?” she asked eagerly.
Connor affirmed, “Yes, we’re discussing a partnership there.”
Hearing this, Camila’s excitement grew. She nodded, smiling, and began washing the dishes with even more care.
Connor watched her enthusiastic expression and smiled softly. “You might want to look up the dress code for women there.”
Camila gave an okay sign and laughed, “I will.”
Upon hearing the news, Camila’s eyes lit up, and she could hardly believe her ears. She whispered, “So does this mean I can skip the gym too?”
Connor’s brow furrowed slightly as he looked at her, then he nodded.
Camila cheered, “Thank you, Mr. Connor! You truly care about your employees.” She felt relieved to finally take a break, as the past few days at work had been tiring, and skipping the gym was an added bonus.
Connor watched her excitement with a smile.
Curious, Camila asked, “How did CoreTech’s launch event go?”
Connor’s lips curved into a smug smile. “It was a flop.”
Ugh, shameless! They steal our technology and try to beat us to the punch with a launch event? What skills do they even have?” Camila eaid indignantly.
Connor chuckled softly, a hint of disdain crossing his face. “The strong do not fear.”
His voice was deep and commanding, as if carrying a persuasive power. In this fiercely competitive business era, only the strong could truly stand undefeated.
Camila looked at him, her eyes filled with admiration. She understood that Connor’s confidence and authority weren’t unfounded but were the results of their team’s hard work and superior products.
