As she stood in front of the sink, she looked at her own swollen red eyes in the mirror–she really did look terrible at that moment.
She bent down, cupped her hands to catch some water, and washed her face. Then, she wiped it with a tissue, and straightened her hair that had been tousled by the wind. She looked much more comfortable now.
“Hey, did you hear, the young president of KM Group is getting engaged next month. What a pity…”
“Tsks, what’s there for you to pity? Even if he weren’t getting engaged, it wouldn’t be your turn anyway.”
“I’m just saying, after all, he’s so handsome and wealthy! Who wouldn’t be smitten by him? Aren’t you?”
Inside the restroom, two South Korean women walked out, talking as they went. Although they spoke in Korean, Camila Walker found it quite easy to understand.
The young president of KM, wasn’t that Clayton Howard…
Having composed herself, Camila walked out of the restroom, and just as she looked up, she saw a familiar figure approaching.
In the corridor, both of them paused in their steps, silently looking at each other.
Ultimately, Lewis Harrison merely slightly lifted his line of sight and passed by her, heading toward the men’s restroom as if he hadn’t seen her.
Watching the man who just brushed past her, Camila felt a vague pain in her chest.
Clayton Howard was right in front of her, yet she couldn’t take him with her. She could only watch him from afar like a stranger.
Why did everything turn out this way…
Looking at his suddenly distant back, Camila turned and headed toward the restaurant.
Had everything really been decided? Would Clayton Howard never come back? Would he never remember the little things they had once shared?
Back at the restaurant, she sat down at her spot.
Jose Pearce noticed that although she had fixed up her makeup, her expression seemed even more dismal than before.
“What’s really going on? Aren’t you going to tell me?” he asked, looking at her with concern.
Camila raised her eyes, “I’m really fine, just a bit tired.”
At that time, the food they had ordered was already served. To dodge Jose Pearce’s probing, Camila tried to divert the topic by lifting the glass of red wine. She casually turned her head to gaze out at the night view through the window and sipped her wine.
“Cough cough–cough!” Perhaps she had drunk it too quickly, she suddenly started coughing fiercely, her fair cheeks turning bright red, and tears almost burst forth!
Seeing this, Jose Pearce quickly stood up and went to her side, patting her back to ease her discomfort while pulling out a tissue to wipe off the wine that she had coughed up.
And this intimate gesture was just seen by Lewis Harrison, who had walked out again and instinctively stopped in his tracks, looking their way.
“Are you alright?” Jose asked as he patted her back.
Camila took the tissue and wiped the wine clean, then said, “It’s nothing, I was just too thirsty.”
She scrambled for an excuse, merely to prevent Jose from seeing through her emotions.
“Leon, it’s late. Let’s go home!”
Not until Nina Adams’ voice came from not too far away did Camila look up, only to realize that somehow, Lewis Harrison and Nina Adams were standing there.
With a faint glance at them, Lewis Harrison emotionlessly shifted his gaze away and walked toward the restaurant doorway.
