Camila's POV

Daniel looked at me and was as guilty as they came. He paused for a second, and I could tell that he wanted to talk to me badly.

On the other hand, I wanted nothing more than to get up and leave the room before he got the idea that I was going to entertain a conversation with him.

And the more I looked at him from the corner of my eye, the more I could tell that his thoughts were winning over, and he was about to talk to me at any moment.

  • My One-Night Stand Was My Stepbrother   Chapter 42

    Camila's POVDaniel looked at me and was as guilty as they came. He paused for a second, and I could tell that he wanted to talk to me badly.On the other hand, I wanted nothing more than to get up and leave the room before he got the idea that I was going to entertain a conversation with him.And the more I looked at him from the corner of my eye, the more I could tell that his thoughts were winning over, and he was about to talk to me at any moment.That wasn't going to happen, at least not on my watch. Without hesitation, I quickly gathered the documents that were in front of me and pushed my chair back.If Daniel was going to talk to me, he would have to do it outside. And that wasn't a guarantee as well.Before I even took the first step, he was already back to the door, blocking my only exit.I tilted my head at him, wondering what his game plan was, because at my workplace was not the place to pull that kind of move.He was doing something that I was about to question him about

  • My One-Night Stand Was My Stepbrother   Chapter 41

    Camila's POVSamantha was quiet. Daniel was somehow cold towards me. Vincent was saying how capable he knew I was in doing the task.A lot was happening during that meeting, and I was really trying to get my head around it all.With my confirmation that I was ready to do the set-up with Margaret, Vincent seemed a bit happier, while Samantha still remained silent.“Perfect. If you can get her to spill everything to you, the prosecution will have no ground to give her a plea deal.We'll make sure that she serves for the crimes that she has committed against both companies." One of the legal representatives said as he handed me a file.From what I could tell when I looked at it, was that it had detailed all the information Margaret had given in her confession.It further detailed the other charges that the prosecution was hoping to go for, and the charges that would be dropped if she made the plea deal.I was so engrossed with the document for a couple of minutes, that I didn't realize t

  • My One-Night Stand Was My Stepbrother   Chapter 40

    Camila's POVI felt the glare on my back as I was walking into the room. Samantha had to be seething with rage, but had no otherwise but to remain professional.I went ahead to take my seat and Charles made sure to sit next to me, while Prime Ventures associates were taking their seats opposite from us.Not a second later, a few more people walked into the room. Most of them were familiar faces, those of the people I had seen during the meetings that I had with Charles.And then, a last group walked in. Vicent was the one in the lead, while two women and a man followed him closely behind.Seeing the crowd getting bigger, I realized that it slipped past me about the meeting, and if it were not for Charles, I would have been walking in late into such an important meeting.Once everyone was seated, all eyes went to Vincent, who seemed to be the one supposed to head the meeting.He began by introducing the people he had walked in with as a team of legal experts that were supposed to help

  • My One-Night Stand Was My Stepbrother   Chapter 39

    Camila's POVSomething was up with Vincent. He started hovering over me at work. Or that's what I thought at least.I would be busy working on something, and then get a feeling that someone was watching me. And every time that I would look, I would find him staring at me.And then, he started working closely with me. A few days after the first site visit after my injury, he walked over to my desk and made an inquiry on a note that I had taken from the site visit.Call it whatever you want, but the inquiry was something that could have been made over the phone. Or he would have even gone ahead and asked his personal assistant to make the inquiry.I wanted to believe that I was overthinking it, but the more I looked at it, the more it didn't make sense.For someone who barely stepped out of his office to deal with anything, he was starting to roam around the floor pretty frequently.Just days after the site visit, I was seated in my cubicle going over some of the documentation that was

  • My One-Night Stand Was My Stepbrother   Chapter 38

    Kyra's POVHe was the last person that I ever expected to see in the field. And he was already walking in our direction.At that moment, my mind completely zoned out as I was still in disbelief, trying to process whether it was actually him. I wouldn't have been surprised to see Charles in the field. Vincent was a completely different kind of surprise to see.Daniel was probably talking to me, but I couldn't hear a thing. My attention was on someone else entirely. And I only remembered that I was even with Daniel when he asked, “Are you even listening to me Cam?"My brain refreshed, and I immediately looked back at Daniel who seemed slightly irritated by how I was absent-minded.I couldn't care less about what he thought or felt. As long as he made it clear that he didn't try to speak to me in private about work, nothing else mattered.He could speak all he wanted, but he wouldn't need to demand my attention. That's why I scoffed right in his face.“Are you done?" I questioned him, wa

  • My One-Night Stand Was My Stepbrother   Chapter 37

    Camila's POVIt was impossible for me not to hear her name and avoid rolling my eyes immediately. And it's not like I tried to hide it from Daniel. I made sure that he saw me do that.The last person that I wanted to talk about was the ex best friend that took my ex husband. Not only that. But I also didn't want to talk about her with the said ex-husband.“I don't want to hear anything about her from you. In fact, I don't even want to talk to you.If you really have to talk to me, keep it professional. I just got back from an injury and this is my first assignment back, can you not do this?" I asked him as I was ready to walk away.Normally, any person should have taken the hint and let me walk away. But did Daniel take the hint? Absolutely not.Was he about to let me walk away and leave me to be in peace? Absolutely not again.I felt his slimy fingers wrap around my wrist the moment I took a step away from him and was about to walk away.The anger that I had every single time I saw h
