A One Night Stand With My Boss

"I think I've made a mess of things," Emily whispered to Peter with a hint of self-reproach. "I scared my future daughter-in-law."

"It was supposed to be a simple fan meet, but suddenly it turned into meeting the parents. Anyone would need time to digest that."

Peter watched her with eyes full of tolerance and understanding, grasping her hand gently to comfort her. "Don't worry. I trust Connor will handle it well." Emily sighed and nodded.

Peter gently patted the back of her hand, murmuring, "Let's head out and give the young couple some space.”

They stood up in unison.

Approaching Connor, Peter clapped him on the shoulder. "Your mom and I are going to head home now. You two have a good chat."

Connor looked up at his father, nodding in agreement.

Camila, catching their conversation, looked up with a mix of apology and unease. "Bye, Emily... Peter."

Emily smiled and nodded. Her affection for Camila was evident in her eyes.

Camila watched them leave, feeling a mix of emotions.
