A One Night Stand With My Boss ( Maia Sanchez )
Chapter 283

"You're all set to be discharged," the nurse said, glancing at the paperwork.

"What about the bill?" Camila asked.

"It's been taken care of," the nurse replied.

Camila immediately thought that Connor must have settled the bill. "Could you please print a copy of the bill for me?"

The nurse nodded and quickly operated the computer, printing out several pages of the detailed bill.

Taking the papers, Camila flipped through them, and her heart sank more with each page.

When she reached the last page showing the total amount, her hand trembled violently, and she felt a wave of dizziness at the sight of the figures.

It was $310,000! The bulk of it was from the VIP suite charges.

At that moment, Connor approached. Seeing her pale face, he asked with concern, "Is everything okay? Are you feeling unwell?"

Camila shook her head and whispered, "It's so expensive. I only have fifty thousand."

Connor laughed, relieved she wasn't feeling ill. There was a mischievous twinkle in his eye. "What will we do then? I guess I'll just have to take you as payment."

"You can deduct it from my salary. I'll pay you back over time," Camila said firmly.

She calculated quickly. She could clear the debt in three years.

Connor looked at her serious little face and couldn't help but tease her by flicking her nose. "Silly girl."

"I'm serious," Camila insisted.

"So am I," Connor said gravely.

They had been inseparable these days, appearing to everyone as boyfriend and girlfriend. He still needed an official status.

"Don't worry about the money. I'm loaded, so to me, these medical bills are just numbers," Connor said, taking her hand.

"But your money didn't just fall from e the sky!" Camila frowned. She knew how much effort Connor had put

into his company, and that his

wealth was hard-earned. Content

Connor thought about it. He owned shares in Passos Corporation, which paid dividends annually without him lifting a finger, so it was indeed like windfall. "True, a large part of it is as if blown in by the wind," he chuckled.

"If you mention money again, I'll be upset!" Connor said as they walked back to the room. His tone was brooking no argument. "Don't bring it up again. It makes things awkward between us."

Camila hesitated but finally sighed and agreed.

Connor's smile returned, and he gently massaged her neck, softly saying, "Good girl."

Finally, Claire was discharged from the hospital in good health. After dropping them off at home, Connor spent the day researching online.

The next evening, as the sunset cast a warm glow over the chilly season, Connor called Camila. "Camila, I'm near your place. Can you come out to meet?"

Without suspicion, Camila put on a thick coat and jeans, wrapped a scarf around her neck, and stepped outside.

The weather in Fairmount had turned chilly, and a breeze brushed her cheeks, bringing a hint of cold.

Camila tucked her neck into the scarf, covering most of her face and quickened her pace.

Connor had asked to meet at a

nearby amusement park.

Unexpectedly, when Camila reached the entrance, a security guard stopped her, saying, "The park is closed for a private event today."

"What?" Camila exclaimed in surprise.

She was about to call Connor when she pulled down her scarf, revealing her delicate face.

The guard hesitated, then quickly said, "You can go in. I was just kidding."

Confused, Camila looked at the guard, guessing Connor must have arranged the private event. With a sense of anticipation, she slowly walked into the amusement park...
