The next day, Camila arrived early at Cedarhill Estate. She sorted through the belongings she had left in the bedroom and packed them all into shopping bags.

As she stepped out of the bedroom, she ran straight into Connor.

Camila nodded politely, "Mr. Connor, good morning."

Connor noticed the shopping bags in her hand and paused slightly. "What's this?"

Connor frowned slightly as he looked at her face. "I didn't mean that. Why are you taking everything?"

Connor became slightly flustered and quickly said, "You might need to work late here, stay over if it gets too late."
