When they reached Camila's apartment building, Craig was already there, holding an elegantly wrapped paper bag.

Seeing Camila draped in a men's suit jacket, Craig paused slightly. There was a flicker of realization crossing his face: John had definitely lost his chance.

However, he masked his emotions and greeted her with a smile.

"Have you been waiting long, Craig?" Camila asked.

Connor nodded slightly in greeting.

He mentally noted: This guy does look quite handsome. No wonder Camila isn't interested in John.

A spark of delight flashed in Camila's eyes as she took the bag, giving Craig a grateful look. "Wow, thank you!"

"While visiting your mom today, I noticed she was coughing quite a bit. My dad suggested she should see a doctor, but she just said she'd already taken some medicine," Craig shared, with a trace of worry in his eyes.

Camila frowned upon hearing this. "She's been coughing since last week and won't listen to anyone about seeing a doctor."
