Secretly Married to a Wealthy Husband
Chapter 1149 - Chapter 1149 Chapter 1149 Can You Be My Female Companion

Chapter 1149: Chapter 1149: Can You Be My Female Companion? Chapter 1149: Chapter 1149: Can You Be My Female Companion? “Is there something you need?”

On the phone, Jose Pearce hesitated for a moment, and upon thinking about his upcoming invitation, he suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed.

He pursed his thin lips, chuckled, and said, “Ah, there’s something I would like to ask for your help with. I wonder if Lady Walker would be willing?”

Upon hearing this, Camila Walker on the other end of the line was taken aback.

What could Jose Pearce possibly need her help with?

Although unclear about the details, she subconsciously asked, “What is it?”

“Tonight, our company is hosting a banquet, and I would like to invite Lady Walker to be my dance partner. Would that be possible?”

It’s undeniable that Camila Walker has always had a certain allure for Jose Pearce. Like with tonight’s banquet, the first person he thought of inviting as his dance partner was not someone else but Camila Walker.

Listening to Jose Pearce’s invitation over the phone, Camila Walker first paused for a moment, then hesitated for a while before asking softly, “To be your dance partner?”

“Yes.” On the phone, Jose Pearce nodded his head.

Camila Walker was stunned; she didn’t understand why he would invite her to be his dance partner.

Towards Jose Pearce, she couldn’t say she had any special liking; at most, she thought he was a decent man and very gentlemanly.

But for her, in this world, no one could replace Clayton Howard’s place in her heart, and she couldn’t make room for a second man.

On the phone, seeing that she had not responded for quite some time, Jose Pearce became somewhat anxious, fearing she would refuse.

“Lady Walker, give me a chance, and consider it giving yourself a chance as well,” said Jose Pearce, remembering the three months of pursuit he had mentioned the last time.

He dearly hoped that she would give him this three-month opportunity.

If she truly could not accept any man besides her ex-husband, then at that time, he would let go wholeheartedly, convinced and without any regrets.

Camila Walker was once again stunned, not quite understanding the meaning of his words.

“Try to accept another relationship, or are you afraid to try? Afraid of feeling guilty?” Perhaps trying very hard to persuade her, Jose Pearce spoke a bit more directly.

Camila Walker knew that he didn’t mean anything else.

But she didn’t want anyone to presume to speculate about her feelings towards Clayton Howard.

“Mr. Pearce, regarding my feelings for my husband, I don’t want anyone to make presumptions. You only want me to be your dance partner, there’s nothing about being brave or not. Just tell me the time and place.”

Camila Walker spoke, perhaps some things didn’t really need to be explained, especially her feelings for Clayton Howard, which she didn’t need to justify to anyone.

Seeing that she suddenly agreed so readily, Jose Pearce was somewhat surprised, but of course, mostly pleased.

After telling her the time and place, they both hung up the phone.

On the side, Angela Reid seemed to have guessed that the caller was Jose Pearce.

Under normal circumstances, she would definitely encourage her daughter to attend the banquet and to get along well with Jose Pearce, but now…

She turned her head and looked at the news conference on the screen that was about to end.

If Clayton Howard were still alive in this world, then Camila…

She looked at her daughter with some concern. As a parent, of course, she hoped for her happiness and joy.

Returning to the sofa, Camila Walker looked at her parents and then at her daughter Belinda Howard.

Then, raising her head, she smiled at Angela Reid, “Mom, I’m going to attend a banquet tonight. Could you take care of Belinda for me? I’ll come to pick her up after the banquet ends.”
