Chapter 874 - 870
Camila Ruiz looked up in Jimmy Horne's arms, her face flushed with confusion, and asked, "Billy, did we really do that last night?"
Jimmy Horne laughed softly, his laughter full of indulgence, with a hint of a big bad wolf.
Hugging her tightly, he leaned into her ear and said softly, "Silly girl, I didn't at all last night."
Upon hearing this, Camila Ruiz was stunned.
Immediately, her face turned indescribably red.
Jimmy Horne's mischievous low laughter came through.
How could she be this clueless!
Really so naive.
However... she didn't want to deny that her heart felt sweet at this moment, becoming his woman, from now on, she was his, and he was hers, they would never be apart again.
Camila Ruiz said nothing, nestled in his arms, listening to him speak.
Nestled until past seven in the morning, she remembered she had to go to work, ignoring the discomfort of her body, she got up quickly.
"How about I help you take another day off with your brother?"
Jimmy Horne said considerately.
"No need."
Camila Ruiz instinctively refused his considerate offer.
Jimmy Horne fell silent.
Twenty minutes later, Jimmy Horne drove Camila Ruiz away from Nameless Manor.
Camila Ruiz still had to go home to change clothes.
So Jimmy Horne took her home first.
Arriving at the Ruiz Family, Camila Ruiz wanted Jimmy Horne to leave first, and she would drive herself to work later, but Jimmy Horne insisted on taking her to work. She had no choice but to ask Jimmy Horne to wait outside the villa for a few minutes while she went inside to change into her professional attire.
As she entered the Yard, the nanny came out to greet her.
"Miss, you're back. Young Master Charles, he... he waited for you in the hall all night."
The nanny finished speaking, giving Camila Ruiz a slightly reproachful look. The nannies all knew Charles Colson loved Camila Ruiz, but Camila Ruiz treated Charles as an elder brother. They hoped to see the two together, but who knew the man in the young lady's heart would come back, and that man was outstanding, surpassing Young Master Charles in every aspect.
Brother Charles?
Camila Ruiz hurried inside and indeed saw Charles Colson sitting on the sofa in the hall, silently staring at the coffee table, on which several empty wine bottles were placed, with the hall still filled with the smell of alcohol.
Upon hearing footsteps, Charles Colson reflexively stood up, turned around, and in a flash, was in front of her.
Before, he dared not confess his feelings to her, now, he had no chance.
Because Jimmy Horne had returned!
Jimmy Horne had occupied her entire heart.
Charles Colson felt regret in his heart, regretting missing the chance to confess.
For eight long years, he hadn't grasped the opportunity, now he could only continue to bear the pain, being her big brother. Because he loved her, he didn't want to embarrass her, didn't want her to be troubled. He was willing to endure the pain, as long as she felt happy.
"Brother Charles, I'm sorry."
Camila Ruiz apologized awkwardly.
Last night she didn't come home, forgot to call Charles Colson, making him worry all night, that was her fault.
"It's getting late, go upstairs and change, I'll take you to the company."
Charles Colson said gently, burying his feelings, his heartache, everything inside. At this moment, as in the past, only his brotherly concern for her was visible.
"Billy is still waiting outside."
Camila Ruiz replied apologetically.
Today, Jimmy Horne would take her to the company.
Hearing Jimmy Horne's name, Charles Colson's eyes darkened. His gaze momentarily sharpened, sweeping over Camila Ruiz's face and body, his sharp eyes catching the faint shy blush on her face, his heart feeling the pain as if cut by a knife. Jimmy Horne had returned; was even his chance to take her to work being taken away?
