A One Night Stand With My Boss

“I think it’s quite nice, too,” Camila said with a smile

“Wrap up a new one,” Rita told the clerk.

The manager then emerged from the safe with an exquisite box, handing it to Rita. “Miss Greta, this necklace is a limited edition, the only one of its kind,” the manager explained. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Rita took the box, opened it, and was greeted by the brilliant sparkle of the diamond necklace inside. This necklace is stunning!” she exclaimed

“It’s called The One, symbolizing a unique love,” the manager elaborated

“Camila,” Rita called out and Camila leaned in to look.

“Try it on,” Rita suggested.

“Rita, this necklace is too valuable Camila objected.

But Rita dismissed Camila’s concem with a smile. “Oh Camila, it’s just a trifle.” She carefully placed the necklace around Camila’s neck.

“How much is it? Rita asked casually.

“Two million one hundred eighty thousand dollars,” the manager replied.

Heanng the price, Camila’s heart skipped a beat. She froze, afraid to move, worrying something might happen to the necklace.

Yet Rita, ever so generously, said, “Wrap this one up too.”

Camila’s eyes widened in panic. She clutched Rita’s arm, anxious about the necklace and too afraid to move.

“I can’t take this. I have no occasion to wear it,” Camila hurriedly said. “Besides, you only won just over a million at poker. This is too

much.”

Rita patted her hand, laughing, “Ah, I just wanted to give you a gift. The poker money was just pocket change.

Camila knew Rita genuinely wanted to send her a gift, but she insisted, “I really can’t accept it, and if you insist, I won’t take the bracelet

either.“.

Rita sighed. “Alright, let Connor buy it for you.” She carefully unclasped the necklace from Camila’s neck.

Camila visibly relaxed, twisting her neck slightly.

Rita handed the necklace back to the manager. “Tell Connor to buy it for you,” she said with a smile to Camila

Camila blushed and smiled shyly.

The next afternoon, Camila was reviewing Connor’s schedule when she heard footsteps. She looked up to see Logan.

She immediately stood up, greeting him politely with a smile, “Mr. Logan, hello.”

When Logan saw Camila, he raised an eyebrow. “Hello, Camila. Connor’s in his office, right?”

“Yes,” Camila nodded and walked over to knock on the door.

As Logan entered the office, Camila noticed he was carrying a box with the Weiss Jewelry logo–the same type of box that had held the two–million–dollar necklace she had tried on the day before.

“Mr. Logan, would you like coffee or tea? Camila asked.

Logan didn’t immediately answer. Instead, he walked over to the sofa area, placed the box on the table, and crossed his legs. “Coffee,” he said with a smile.

At that moment, Connor was reviewing documents but glanced up at Logan.

And for Mr. Connor? Camila asked.

“The same,” Connor said, turning to her.

“Alright” Camila left the office.

“I brought you the item you wanted Logan said, glancing at the box on the table, and I got you a discount, just $1.96 million.”
