A One Night Stand With My Boss ( Maia Sanchez )
Chapter 357

Camila's grip on her phone tightened as she blurted out, "Why'd they break up out of the blue?"

Connor and Rita both turned to look at her.

Taken aback by their sudden attention, Camila felt a bit awkward and forced a smile, trying to mask her inner turmoil.

"I'll come to you. Send me your address."

Connor raised an eyebrow, "What's up?"

Camila replied, "Jenna... my friend, seems like she's had her heart broken. I'm going to see her."

Rita got up, grabbing her purse. "I'll take you."

Camila shook her head quickly, "No, it's fine."

"It's okay, I was about to leave anyway. I'll drop you off," Rita said with a smile.

Connor glanced at her, "Check the parking lot; her boyfriend's still here."

"Whatever, big shot! I'm outta here." Rita rolled her eyes at him and left with a few coworkers.

Camila put on her coat and went downstairs with Connor. In the elevator, Connor asked, "They just had a fight, right?"

Camila shook her head slightly, looking a bit confused. "I'm not sure. Jenna's voice sounded really off."

Once they reached the hotel lobby, Connor said, "I'll come up with you."

Camila responded, "It's just us girls talking. It might be awkward for you."

"How could it be awkward? I can join in bashing Logan," Connor said with a straight face.

Camila laughed at his comment. Just then, Connor's phone rang, and he waved it. "The guy's calling me."

"You go ahead, and try not to drink too much." Camila unbuckled her seatbelt, gave him a peck on the cheek, and got out of the car.

The cold wind was biting, and a light rain was falling. Camila shivered and hurried into the hotel.

Inside, Jenna had already downed half a bottle of red wine, her eyesz slightly swollen from crying. Seeing her friend like this for the first time, Camila felt a pang of sorrow

She hugged Jenna and asked softly, "What happened? What's wrong?"

Jenna didn't answer right away. Instead, she silently grabbed her glass and took another gulp of wine.

After a while, Jenna finally spoke, her voice trembling, "Logan and I broke up."

Her words hit like a heavy stone in a calm lake, creating ripples of disturbance. Camila gently patted her back, trying to comfort her.

"I thought I wouldn't care... but it hurts so much," Jenna leaned on Camila's shoulder, tears streaming down silently, filled with endless sadness and pain.

Slowly, she continued with a choked

voice, "With my ex, I felt like we were

both just doing our own thing. It didn't matter as long as we

nere

happy together."

She looked up at Camila, "But why does it hurt this time?"

Camila responded tenderly, "Maybe you truly fell for Logan, maybe you invested your feelings..."

Jenna looked at Camila through teary eyes.

Had she really fallen for him? Or was it just the familiarity? Or was it because he fit her idea of attractive? Or was it just possessiveness?

As she was lost in her thoughts, there was a knock on the door.

"Cami, it's me," Connor said from the doorway.

Camila paused, then went to open the door. To her surprise, Logan was there too, his face flushed from drinking.

Logan staggered into the room, his

gaze sweeping around before finally settling on Jenna. His expression softened instantly, as if all his drunkenness had vanished.
