A One Night Stand With My Boss

Haylie’s voice carried a hint of malice, causing Bee to shiver involuntarily.

Haylie, a seasoned actress in the entertainment industry, had won the hearts of many fans with her unique charm and superb acting skills. However, behind the glitz and glamor, Bee knew all too well how calculating she could be.

Bee vividly remembered the moment she learned that Capital Solutions had collapsed. A flash of rage crossed Haylie’s face, but she quickly composed herself and began to devise a plan.

She arranged for familiar paparazzi to stake out her home and then posted the photos they captured online.

This move quickly sparked media attention and sent the fans of the “Haylie-Connor Couple” into wild speculation about their relationship.

She chose to stage a suicide attempt, a frightening yet non-lethal method. Successfully, this suicide incident created a media advantage for herself.

She knew the rules of the entertainment game well and was adept at using every resource to achieve her goals. Whether it was a meticulously planned event or an impromptu performance, she could effortlessly control the situation.

Camila called the dealership to schedule a time to view a car.

That evening, the dealership’s representative arrived at Camila’s home on time. He carefully examined the car’s exterior and interior.

After a while, he looked up and said, “The car is indeed in good condition. Based on the market, I’d estimate its value between $75,000 and $80,000.”

When he heared this price, her uncle’s face showed a pained expression. “That little? I bought this car for $110,000!” he exclaimed.

The dealer smiled and explained, “A new car depreciates the moment it’s driven off the lot, and that’s the rule of the used car market.” Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Riley pulled Camila aside and whispered, “The depreciation is too much. I’ve only had it for a few months!”

Camila consoled him, “I’ve consulted several used car dealerships, and this one offers a relatively high price. We really need the money now, so let’s just sell it.”

Riley sighed and nodded.

“We agree to sell the car,” Camila told the dealer.

“Alright, I’ll need to take the car back for a more detailed inspection and evaluation. We’ll tow the car now and make the payment within three days,” the dealer said.

Camila’s brow furrowed slightly. Her voice was firm. “I need the money by tomorrow.”

The dealer paused, then replied, “Okay, you’re a friend of Wesley’s, so I’ll make an exception and request it from the company.”

Camila nodded, “Thank you.”

Riley sighed deeply as he signed the paperwork.

After signing, the dealer immediately contacted a towing company to take the car away for inspection and evaluation.

Back at home, Melinda asked, “Has the car been towed?”

Riley nodded, sighing.

“We’re still short a few thousand.” Melinda’s eyes rested on Camila.

Camila sighed resignedly and nodded, “I’ll cover the rest.”

“Good, good, my dear granddaughter. Drew can finally be bailed out,” Grandma said, holding Camila’s hand.

Camila gave a faint smile and quietly withdrew her hand.

“What are we going to do now? We can’t go back home for now,” Melinda sighed. Her face was full of worry.

“You can stay here tonight. It’s small, but we’ll make do,” Claire suggested.

“It’s too cramped here. Isn’t there a hotel nearby?” Grandma frowned.

Camila scoffed, “If you think it’s too small here, go stay in a hotel if you have the money.”

Riley tugged at his mother’s sleeve and shook his head.

Faced with reality, they had no choice but to stay. The atmosphere at home was oppressively tense.

“Cami, you should head back. It’s getting late.”
