“Everything is interconnected now, and you’re still using an antique. Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?” Maxwell tapped on the sofa. “This sofa must have been around for quite some time, right?”
“The sofa is perfectly fine, you see, sitting on it is completely no problem,” Camila demonstrated to Maxwell, and
immediately the sofa made a sound as if it was about to fall
apart.
Camila made Maxwell so angry that he wanted to laugh. He thought it would be strange if anyone found out that Camila was sitting on such a terrible sofa without being laughed at.
“Camila, can I help you improve your quality of life?”
“But I feel that these things can still be used, it’s such a waste to throw them away. The main issue is that our engagement still has a few months left, so who does these things really belong to when we get divorced?”
“Do you think I would argue with you over this little property?” Maxwell looked at Camila strangely, wondering if she would still be so thrifty with him after finding out her identity.
“Well, then I’m even more embarrassed. I still owed you 80 thousand dollars.”
“So you wanted to make me angry, and then you wouldn’t have to pay me back, right?”
“I wouldn’t dare to anger you.” Camila pushed the pasta in

front of Maxwell. “You should eat quickly. The pasta will get
cold soon.”
“That’s about it.” Maxwell ate pasta while he gave Camila a phone number.
“The day after tomorrow, this person will call you and he will come to your place in person to install. Moreover, he will also help you dispose of the outdated appliances and furniture.”
Camila felt that Maxwell was so rich, she couldn’t help but suspect that Maxwell didn’t rely on a salary to make a living..
“Hey, do you have any other part–time jobs besides working at Startak Gaming?” Camila asked curiously.
“Why are you asking about this?”
“I feel like you don’t know how to live at all, always choosing the most expensive things to buy. Either you are a spendthrift or you are really wealthy,” Camila concluded.
Maxwell felt like he was about to be exposed and hastily said, “Recently, a friend introduced me to some freelance work, so I have a bit of extra income.”
“No wonder, was it Svetla who introduced you?” Camila asked casually.
“You finally showed some intelligence.” Camila said, giving Maxwell the perfect excuse.
“Svetla has been frequently visiting our company to meet Mr. Conner. It is said that Felton Realty has set their sights on the land in the southern part of the city.”
Maxwell’s face darkened when he heard Camila mention the

piece of land in the south of the city.

“That piece of land used to belong to Starling Realty, but it was sold to Alan after they went bankrupt,” Maxwell sighed. “Do you know how much that land is worth now?”
“How much?” Camila was curious.
“The original piece of land was sold for 5 million dollars, and now Alan is about to sell it for 112 million dollars.”
“112 million dollars? Did anyone buy it?” 112 million dollars was an astronomical figure for Camila.
“There were plenty of people who wanted to buy, including Felton Realty that you mentioned,” Maxwell thought of Dimon and Adam’s greedy faces and felt very angry.
“Felton Realty seemed to have big plans in the domestic market,” Camila, although not having a good impression of Dimon, had to admit that Felton Realty was indeed very
strong.
That evening, Maxwell finished his food and went back home.
The next day, Camila went to work. As soon as she walked through the doors of Startak Gaming branch, she heard someone in the meeting room getting angry, as if they had even thrown things.
“Who’s in there?” Camila saw Brook eavesdropping at the door, so she gently tapped Brook’s shoulder.
Brook was Hudson’s classmate and had just signed a contract with the branch of Startak Gaming.
“Shh, it seems to be Danniel, and there’s another guy, I don’t
Chapter 116 Part–Time Job
know him.”
“Bang!” The door was kicked open, and Danniel and Maxwell walked out from inside.
Camila saw Maxwell’s bad complexion and thought he had been scolded by Danniel, so she wanted to comfort Maxwell but didn’t know what to say.
But Camila saw that Danniel’s face looked even worse, as if he had been scolded by Maxwell.
However, Camila thought it was impossible for Maxwell to insult his boss, no matter how stupid he was.
“Camila, is your work progressing smoothly?” Brook, like a shadow, followed Camila into the office.
“Do you have something to do?” Although they were only a few years apart, in Camila’s eyes, Brook seemed like a little child.
“Do you have a boyfriend?” Brook smiled shyly and asked.
“Guess what?” Camila didn’t want to deceive Brook, but she also didn’t want Brook to know that she was married. After all, her marriage had only a few months left before it expired. It was better not to say anything.
“I guess you were still single,” Brook laughed, her face turning even redder.
But Camila didn’t even look at Brook, so she didn’t notice at
all.
“Well, I guess so. Why are you asking about this?”

“I wanted to introduce someone to you,” Brook scratched his head nervously. “I don’t know what kind of person you like, though.”
“I like…” Camila didn’t finish her sentence when she saw Maxwell walking in with a gloomy face.
“Chatting during working hours, is it the same for you at Conner Consultancy?”
“We were just saying a few words,” Camila explained.
“Yes, we didn’t chat,” Brook glanced at Maxwell. “And who are you anyway, and why do you think you can meddle in our affairs?”
At this moment, Danniel walked in and said, “Let me introduce you all. This is Maxwell, who has been transferred from the IT Department. Due to some issues with the project, Maxwell will be responsible for coordinating with Conner Consultancy in the next steps.”
The other members of Conner Consultancy stood up to greet
Maxwell.
Only Camila sat calmly in her seat, showing no expression at all.
“Camila, from now on, your work will be arranged by me,” Maxwell said.
“No problem,” Camila symbolically shook hands with Maxwell.
“Then you moved to my office to work, so that we could communicate anytime.”
Maxwell’s proposal made the other employees of Conner

Consultancy envious. Being able to work with a super handsome guy like him was truly a stroke of luck for Camila.
But Camila was reluctant, she didn’t want to face Maxwell’s poker face all day.
“Your office is only a few steps away from here, there’s no need to keep moving around, it’s quite troublesome,” Camila said.
“Not at all troublesome, and you don’t have to lift a finger.”
Maxwell glanced at Danniel, and Danniel immediately called for someone to help Camila pack her things.
Originally, Camila didn’t have many things, so she quickly finished moving.
Camila had a feeling of being kidnapped.
She came to Maxwell’s office with a sulky expression, only to find that there was an additional desk opposite Maxwell’s desk, with a brand new office computer placed on it.
“Are you satisfied?” Maxwell closed the door, leaving only Camila and him in the room.
“Why did you insist on making me move over here?”
“Someone from your company leaked the technical information of Startak Gaming,” Maxwell said sternly.
“What did you say? How could this happen?” Camila widened her eyes. “How do you know it was someone from our team who leaked it?”
