“How do you know so much?” Camila began to admire Maxwell. Previously, she had always thought of Maxwell as a stereotypical and boring programmer who knew nothing except coding. Now it seems that he is very knowledgeable in financial management and taxation.
“What’s wrong? Have you fallen in love with me?” Maxwell chuckled.
“Impossible!” Camila’s face turned red instantly.
“Alright. Stop working. Let’s do something productive.”
“What’s the matter?”
“Grandpa said to hurry up, you two,” Maxwell closed Camila’s laptop.
He exuded the scent of shower gel from his body. He had even finished bathing.
Camila was a little uncomfortable with this change. “I feel like I wasn’t ready yet.”
“Do you still have any concerns?” Maxwell sat down next to Camila.
“I felt that there were still many issues between us. Having a child is a big decision, and it should be approached with caution.”
Maxwell nodded.

“You’re right, there were a lot of issues between us. But problems can be resolved over time, and my grandfather can’t wait any longer,” Maxwell’s voice was filled with sadness.
When it comes to Gideon, Camila’s mood is also very heavy. After all, Gideon’s cancer cells have already spread and metastasized, and he could leave this world at any time.
“Did you want a child only for the sake of your grandfather?” Camila didn’t want to bring an innocent life into the world just to fulfill Gideon’s wish.
“It was me who wanted a child of my own,” Maxwell suddenly became serious.
“Grandfather is the closest person to me in this world. If he were to leave one day, I would not have anyone left who loves me. That’s why I really want to have a family, to have a child
who calls me dad…”
Camila was slightly moved, she admitted that Maxwell’s words resonated with her. She also wanted to have a home, a loving husband, and an adorable child.
“If you just want a child, I think with your conditions, there are many people willing to have a child with you,” Camila said.
“I wanted you to have a baby for me.”
“But this clause was not included in our prenuptial agreement.”
Upon hearing the words, Maxwell fell silent for a long time.
Camila thought that today’s conversation was over.
She stood up and was about to go to sleep when her hand

was suddenly grabbed by Maxwell. “What can I do to make you believe that I truly fell in love with you?”
Camila’s body stiffened, and her heart started racing.
“I didn’t know when I started falling in love with you. Maybe it was that night at the guesthouse when you appeared with a cake. Anyway, I realized that I couldn’t live without you anymore.”
“I didn’t want to be the third person between you and Svetla.”
“You were never the home wrecker. It was only when I fell in love with you that I truly realized my feelings for Svetla were not love at all.”
“What was that?”
“I didn’t know, but I didn’t have those thoughts about her. I thought it was normal, but then I met you, and I realized that it was anything but normal.”
Especially after Maxwell slept with Camila, images of being with her frequently appeared in his mind. Sometimes, he even zoned out during briefings.
“Are you saying that you had sexual thoughts about me?” Camila looked at Maxwell in surprise.
“I couldn’t help but feel…,” Maxwell couldn’t understand. Being with Svetla felt like a pure platonic love, reminiscent of Plato’s philosophy.
He used to take pride in his simplicity and lack of desire. Svetla often said he was the epitome of asceticism.
Until he met Camila, especially after their first time in bed

together, he was tormented by her and couldn’t sleep all night.
He only realized that women’s bodies were so soft and smelled so good. Not only that, she also made him feel the primitive impulse for the first time.
Maxwell grabbed Camila’s hand and placed it on his heart, “If you are willing to believe me, I can entrust my heart to you.”
Feeling the heartbeat in the palm of her hand, Camila discovered that her heart was also pounding uncontrollably.

The next morning, Zora was holding a meeting for everyone.
Camila couldn’t help but yawn repeatedly.
Everyone only noticed the shallow kiss marks under her slightly raised collar.
Last night, Maxwell and Camila stayed up late. But at the last moment, Camila got scared again, she said she got her period, and they finally embraced and fell asleep.
Felicity tapped her, asking her to pay attention to her appearance.
Camila felt the strange gazes from others at that moment, and she suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.
Then someone started whispering.
“Did you hear? Caleb was spotted last night going to a hotel room with a mysterious woman.”

“Indeed it was.”
“Which woman was it?”

“It is said to be a new female colleague in our company,” someone said, pointing in the direction of Camila and Felicity with their chin.
“What do you mean?” Felicity exclaimed, slamming the table. “Don’t whisper.”
“We didn’t mention you, why are you angry?”
“I can’t just stay silent. I can’t stand you all talking nonsense,” Felicity angrily retorted.
“Alright, the meeting is over for today,” Zora stood up. “Camila, come with me to the office.”
Camila followed Zora into the office.
“How did your tax–saving plan go?” Zora poured Camila a cup of coffee.
“It was just a little short, I will be able to give you the plan later today.”
“No need, Jamie’s team sent me the proposal last night. I felt it was good, so I recommended it directly to the company. Their team has more experience and the proposed plan is also more practical. Currently, their plan has passed the company’s initial review.”
“Oh, so that means our plan was useless?” Camila said, feeling a bit disappointed.

“You can’t say that. In case their proposal didn’t get the approval of Startak Gaming, you still have hope. Although this possibility is relatively small.”
“Okay, I got it,” Camila said disappointedly.
“By the way, there have been a lot of rumors about you at the company recently.”
“My rumor?” Camila hasn’t been coming to the office these days. She has been at home, focusing on preparing that proposal. So she knows nothing about what Zora said.
“I won’t mention the specific rumors. In short, many of them are quite unpleasant. If this continues, I’m worried it will affect your reputation in the company. Now, someone has proposed to revoke your title as a gold consultant.”
Camila was at a loss, what kind of unpleasant rumors could she have heard?
Zora walked out of her office and saw Felicity waiting for her
at the door.
“What did Zora tell you?”
Camila told her about the plan being rejected.
Felicity exploded as soon as she heard it, “Wasn’t it said that there is equal opportunity? How come our proposal was directly passed?”
“Never mind, we were inexperienced,” Camila said resignedly.
“No way. Someone must be manipulating behind the scenes,” Felicity said defiantly. “No, this matter must be brought to Mr. Conner’s attention.”

“Don’t make a big deal out of it, otherwise Zora will be very embarrassed. After all, we still have to work under her.”
Camila advised.
“That’s too cheap for those people,” Felicity protested. “We can’t just let it go like this.”
