Chapter 69

After leaving the police station, the group walked into the night, which seemed devoid of stars. Camila and Erica walked together, the latter keeping her eyes on Connor at the forefront, whispering to her companion, “Your boss is really something else, isn’t he? He owned that room back there, so dashing. I’m rooting for you guys.”

“It’s not the time for jokes.” Camila was nearly in tears.

Parking was not allowed directly outside the police station, so their cars were parked further away.

Reaching the entrance, Connor stopped, and everyone behind him halted too.

Connor glanced at Camila, signaling her to come over. Her feet felt like they were filled with lead as she moved slowly towards him. Suddenly, Erica pushed her from behind, and she almost fell into Connor, who quickly caught her by the arm.

Turning her head, Camila saw Erica giggling with round, wide eyes.

“Get in the car,” Connor said, standing in front of his vehicle.

Camila forced a smile, “No need, I’ll ride with Janet…”
