The next day.

Camila had just finished washing up when the doorbell rang. She frowned slightly, wondering which neighborhood kid was messing with the doorbell again. Deciding to ignore it, she walked to her bedroom to change clothes.

She had just taken off her pajamas when the doorbell rang again.

Camila sighed with resignation. She wondered which child was being such a nuisance. This had happened before, but usually, it was just once.

Reluctantly, she slipped her pajamas back on and went to the door, peering through the peephole. Her expression softened when she saw who it was.

There stood Connor, bathed in sunlight, looking even more handsome and dashing than usual.

Camila quickly opened the door, surprised. "What brings you here?" she asked.

Connor smiled gently, his eyes warm. "David will be bringing breakfast over soon, and from now on, I'll be the one to pick you up for work."

Instead of the smile Connor was hoping for, Camila's expression turned serious. A wave of anxiety rushed over him. He worried she might have changed her mind overnight. With a heavy sigh, Camila said, "We need to talk. Come in."

They sat down on the sofa, and she patted the space beside her. Connor sat, his face filled with nervous anticipation.

Camila watched him sternly. "I'm your secretary. It's my job to pick you up for work. You're turning things upside down."
