Haylie’s welcome party

Connor was out of the office in the aftemoon, and Camila left work on time to meet Erica. She changed into a dress at Erica’s place and applied her makeup meticulously.

The party started at nine, so they had time to grab a quick meal beforehand. During dinner, Camila couldn’t help but smile and occasionally giggle.

Watching her, Erica teased, “Why do you look like a girl in love?”

“Not at all,” Camila replied shylys

“Come on, spill the beans!” They grew up together, so Erica knew Camilla’s moods and quirks all too well and could tell something was

up.

In a low voice, Camila confessed, “I think… Connor might like me.”

“You realize only now?” Erica laughed. Tm curious. How did you figure that out?”

Camila then shared everything about Connor’s birthday, including her bold move to steal a kiss from him.

Erica scoffed, “A stolen kiss? How timid of you!”

Raising an eyebrow she continued, “After he sobered up, you should’ve made your move. You might have been expecting by now.”

Camila’s cheeks flushed as she glared at Erica.

Erica simply shrugged, “Come on, you two… have been close for a while, no need to be coy

“Oh, please, go on, Erica urged, her curiosity piqued.

After a moment, Camila continued, “The other day, while shopping with Rita, she wanted to buy me a necklace worth two million, which shocked me. How could I accept such an expensive gift?”

“And then?” Erica asked eagerly.

“She suggested Connor should buy it for me.” Camila looked down, a sweet smile playing on her lips. “Yesterday, I saw that necklace in his office. It’s a limited edition, called The one.”

Erica chuckled, “Wow, Connor’s really generous.”

Then she asked. “So, do you still want Haylie’s autographed photo?”

“Of course, the two aren’t mutually exclusive,” Camila smiled.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely get you that autograph tonight, Erica winked, “But remember, let Connor make the first move. Men don’t cherish what comes too easily.”

Camila nodded, “Til take your advice to heart.”

“Alright, let’s finish up and head over,” Erica urged.

After dinner, Enca drove to an upscale neighborhood where many private villas had been converted into entertainment venues. Erica pulled up, parked the car, and noticed a line of luxury cars at the

entrance. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

As they walked towards the villa, Camila remarked, “Haylie really draws a crowd, all these fancy cars.”

“She’s been in the industry for seven years and holds a respectable position. Tonight’s her welcome party, so there will likely be many big names, Erica said,

“I don’t see what’s so special about her. The entertainment industry is full of beautiful women, and many are quite cunning. I remember

her fiancé is…”

“The CEO of Capital Solutions Camila chimed in.

Right, Lily’s ex–husband’s company.”

“My cousin works there, too. I’ve always felt that company was a bit off…”

They reached the villa’s entrance. Erica handed their invitations to the staff.

“Please,” the staff member gestured them inside.
