“It’s none of your business,” Brook resented Maxwell.
Maxwell wanted to lose his temper very much. It was the first time he had been provoked by an ordinary employee.
At that moment, Danniel walked over and said, “Brook, come with me.”
Brook was very afraid of Danniel, and he reluctantly followed him. As Brook was leaving, he extended his fist towards Maxwell as a warning.
Maxwell was laughed at by his childish behavior.
Maxwell turned and walked into the office to find Camila staring at her high heels. Camila was contemplating how to fix them.
“Why keep it? You couldn’t fix it,” Maxwell snatched the high heels and threw them into the trash bin.
“These shoes cost me more than 80 dollars,” Camila felt very regretful. She bought these shoes to wear in Startak Gaming.
Maxwell felt that it was the way Camila cared about money that was both adorable and annoying.
“You couldn’t wear these shoes anymore. These shoes were meaningless no matter how expensive they were.”
“Are you saying that without value, it becomes useless?” Camila suddenly felt that Maxwell was actually a utilitarian

person.
“What else?”
“Although these shoes lost their value, I had an emotional attachment to them.”
“Emotions? You’re talking about having emotions with a pair of worn–out shoes?” Maxwell looked at Camila strangely.
“You knew very well that I wasn’t talking about shoes,” Camila blurted out.
“What are you talking about?” Maxwell asked, pressing for an
answer.
Camila didn’t know if Maxwell was pretending to be dumb. Maxwell couldn’t understand, and she didn’t want to explain.
She chose a pair of shoes casually online. Just as she was about to place the order, she heard Maxwell make a phone call.
“Help me choose a few pairs of women’s shoes in size 37, and send the pictures to my phone.”
“How did you know my size is 6.5?” Camila was puzzled because she had never told him that.
“I guessed by observation.” Maxwell didn’t tell Camila that he had thoroughly investigated her situation even before their blind date.
Camila remained silent and began to focus on her work.
Half an hour later, Pawel selected ten pairs of fashionable women’s shoes for Camila and sent the pictures to Maxwell’s

Maxwell let Camila choose.
All the shoes were beautiful, but as soon as she looked at the brand, she was stunned. They were all big brands like Armani and Chanel.
A pair of shoes would cost several thousand dollars.
She looked for a long time but didn’t choose a pair.
“Don’t you like these?” Maxwell asked, seeing Camila frown, thinking that she didn’t like them.
“Weren’t these shoes expensive?”
“Don’t be afraid. These shoes are all knock–offs, not genuine. Each pair costs dozens of dollars, but the quality is very good,” Maxwell said earnestly, telling a lie.
Camila listened and breathed a sigh of relief, then picked a pair of black flat shoes from inside.
“Just take this pair, I’ll give you the money back.”
“No need, I could afford a few hundred bucks.” Maxwell sent the picture to Pawel, asking him to deliver it in the afternoon.
Maxwell had a lot of work. Camila never saw him take a break in the afternoon. The files on his desk kept piling up higher and higher, as if they would never be finished.
As the saying goes, the most charming man is the one who works diligently. Camila occasionally looked up and saw the scene of Maxwell working at his desk.

He furrowed his brows from time to time. He also supported his forehead occasionally, no matter what expression, he was always so pleasing to the eye.
Camila’s face turned red as she continued to watch.
She busily lowered her head and focused on the work in her
hands.
Actually, what she didn’t know was that while she was busy, Maxwell was secretly watching her.
Before leaving work, Pawel delivered the shoes.
When Camila opened the shoe box, she was immediately attracted by the appearance of this pair of shoes.
She felt that it was not a high imitation at all, but an authentic product. It was really comfortable when she wore it on her feet.
“How much money should I give back to you?” Camila took out her phone to transfer money to Maxwell.
Maxwell put down the documents and extended five fingers.
“50 dollars?”
Maxwell shook his head.
“500 dollars?” Camila exclaimed, her mouth wide open, surprised by how expensive it was.
Maxwell shook his head again.
“5,000 dollars?” Camila was horrified. “Didn’t you say the knock–offs were only a few hundred bucks?”

“That was the factory price.” Maxwell said calmly, “If you want it, that’s the price.”
“How much money did you actually spend?” Camila felt deceived by Maxwell.
Maxwell suddenly stood up and said, “Do you have to calculate everything with me so precisely?”
“I didn’t want to owe you too much.”
“Suit yourself,” Maxwell said, angrily leaving.
Camila packed her things and got ready to go eat. She had to work late again tonight.
She went downstairs and was about to walk out of the company gate when she suddenly remembered that the office door was not closed.
She went back to close the door and saw that the office was filled with people inside and outside.
Danniel’s voice came from inside.
“Do you know what your behavior is?” Danniel said angrily. “I have already contacted your company. You explain it to
Peter.”
“What’s going on?” Camila walked into the office and saw Olivia crying while holding a document.
“You came just in time. This employee of your company sneaked in and tried to take away our company documents,” Danniel said indignantly.
“I didn’t. Camila, you have to believe me, I really didn’t,” Olivia

said, crying.
Camila took the document from Olivia’s hand, and it was the technical proposal for this project.
“What are you doing with this?” Camila didn’t believe Olivia was the mole.
“This is what Elena asked me to bring to you,” Olivia said.
Camila looked at Elena standing at the door and asked, “Is that what happened?”
Elena looked innocent and said, “I didn’t have anything from Startak Gaming in my hands. Besides, I was busy all afternoon and didn’t ask her to deliver any files to you.”
“Elena, it was clearly you who asked me to deliver the documents. How can you say you don’t know?” Olivia exclaimed in frustration.
“That’s enough, stop arguing. The facts are right in front of us. If you have something to say, go explain it to your company.”
“Danniel, could it be a misunderstanding?” Camila wanted to help Olivia explain, but couldn’t find any strong arguments.
“I witnessed this incident with my own eyes, there is no misunderstanding,” Danniel respected Camila. “Camila, please don’t get involved in this matter, let your company handle it.”
“Our suggestion was to dismiss her. Anyway, we don’t need her here anymore,” Danniel’s attitude was resolute.
Camila looked at Olivia and felt sorry for her, but she didn’t know how to help her.
Zora quickly called and asked Olivia to come back immediately.
Camila accompanied Olivia and returned to the company.
Zora didn’t ask anything and directly handed Olivia a dismissal letter.
Camila wanted to vouch for Olivia, but Zora said it was Peter’s decision and there was no room for turning back.
Camila felt uneasy as she watched Olivia holding the dismissal letter, hanging her head dejectedly and leaving.
At this moment, Mackenzie walked over.
“Look, you were just an evil woman. Whoever got close to you was unlucky.”
