A One Night Stand With My Boss

"Could it have fallen somewhere? I'm sorry, I was in a hurry and didn't check properly."

"Okay, thank you." Camila hung up the phone, staring blankly ahead.

She slowly stood up and walked out of the security room.

Camila returned to the dressing room and found the cleaning lady's information.

"If you happen to find my necklace while cleaning, could you please give me a call?"

The lady agreed cheerfully.

Camila sat quietly in the makeup chair, feeling a void in her heart.

She touched her bare neck.

With the loss of the necklace, it was time to end this unrequited love and let go of these hopeless feelings.

She sighed deeply, then gathered herself and changed back into her business attire.

Despite the turmoil inside, she maintained a calm facade.

She exited the dressing room and headed toward her workspace.
