Present Camille “How do you make a living?” Conan asked with a radiant smile on his face. “Uh... um...” I clutched the glass in my hand, feeling uncomfortable as he glanced at my cleavage before looking back at me. “Well, I am an asshole, but...” he smiled before taking off his jacket and putting it on me. “But not that asshole that makes women feel uncomfortable with my gaze. Of course, I want to bed you at some point, but only with your consent.” I raised my eyes at him as he gave me another playful wink. “Thank you,” I said while sipping my wine and looking at Scott, whose eyes were immediately drawn to us. His eyes were so sharp, I shivered when they fixed on Conan as if he was about to tear him in half. The sight of him amused me for some reason; it seemed as if he was feeling something he shouldn’t be feeling. Maura stood next to him, demanding his attention while he was keeping a watchful eye on us. “I didn’t get my answer. What do you do?” Conan drew my attention to him.

Past Camille I stood in the church watching people show fake sympathy for my family during the funeral of my mother. Some of them pulled me into a suffocating hug, patted me on the back, and whispered sweet words about my mother. “What a lovely heart she had,” said an old lady while wiping her tears. Nobody there could understand how I felt at that moment, not even my dad. The guilt was cutting me deep. I was torn between keeping alive or dying. My stomach was churning with remorse and pain. As memories of my mother flashed through my head, my hands clenched painfully. How could I get over this grief? When she needed me most, I should have been there for her.When she was taking her last breath, I should have been there for her. It was impossible for me to breathe, knowing my mother had left me forever. I felt numb all over. “Our condolences are with you, Mr. Davidson,” a brunette woman said to my father, placing her hand on his shoulder as she squeezed him. Dad didn’t pay att

PresentScott“What’s your fucking problem?” Archie barged into my office when he got the news about his production house. Swiveling my chair to see his pissed-off face, I split my lips into a smirk. I couldn’t explain why, but my hands were urging me to kill him right then and there. The first reason is when he asked Camille Davidson to be his girlfriend, while the second is when Conan set his eyes on her. “Why the fuck did you stop the production of my three movies?” The guards rushed inside before grabbing Archie and dragging him away from my office. “I’m sorry, sir.” I nodded with a smirk and motioned to them to take him out of my office. “Scott, stop them!” He yelled while trying to get rid of them. “Scott, you have my sister. Stop drooling over Camille and vent your rage on me. You’ll regret doing this. I know what you’re mad about. I know how you’ve been feeling yesterday. I know why. Come on Scott, you’re no teen boy.” After he had finished speaking, I jumped to my feet and

Past CamilleOver a month had passed since my mother died, but I still felt as if she was with me. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't erase her memories. She taught me how to deal with life's challenges. She believed that life would be boring without difficulties. Maybe that's why her life was filled with hardships and problems. From the day I insulted Samuel among the students, Scott stopped talking to me. Despite my desire to tell him the truth and reveal the true face of his innocent brother, I could not do so. This is because he would never trust me. There was nothing I could do to defeat Samuel. I would have to gather information before confronting Scott. "Are you okay?" Rika asked as I covered my mouth with a hand when a wave of nausea swept over me. "I don't know, I've been feeling tired for weeks," I replied and looked at Mrs. Micah, who was teaching us algebra."I guess you need some rest," Rika said, her eyes flickering with concern. "I cannot since I want to score

PresentCamille “Are you sure you don’t want to do it?” Conan asked a sixth time as he slammed the newspaper on the kitchen counter. “Well, you’re gorgeous, Cami. I’m the director of this movie, so you can play the lead role. You have a better chance of earning a good reputation and getting rid of Maura. I don’t like seeing you working under her.”“I think you should leave since Maura and her friends could show up anytime,” I said as I rushed to the microwave. He scoffed while leaning against the counter and crossing his arms over his chest. “So you think I’m afraid of that homewrecker?” “No, you’re not, but I’m afraid.” I snapped while taking the meat out of the microwave and putting it on the counter. Maura had ordered me to prepare dinner for her friends as she was planning to invite them for a celebration on the occasion of her another successful movie. “Will Scott also be attending the dinner party?” As soon as I heard his name after two weeks, my heart started thudding. I ha

PastCamille As time passed, my morning sickness worsened. My tummy swallowed a bit as I had completed twelve weeks of my pregnancy. The roundness of my tummy surprised me when I raised my t-shirt. It wasn’t just my stomach that grew, but also my breasts. My father and I still hadn’t spoken about my pregnancy, but I planned on telling him shortly. Still, he could not stomach his wife’s death as he was drowning in grief deeper and deeper. All of his work and meetings were now handled by me, as he was drunk most of the time. “Cami...,” Natalie huffed as she knocked on the bathroom door. “Is it you?”“Yes.” I pushed down my shirt and unlocked the door. “What happened?” I asked. “Can you please help me with my project?” “Yeah, sure.” “Thank you.” She chirped out before wrapping her arms around me in a tight hug. I smiled with joy, feeling better. A few weeks ago, Natalie’s rudeness vanished as she started behaving politely. Opening my laptop, I studied her project before we began

Present Camille “Don’t you think this is too short?” I asked while tugging at the dress. Kat had brought me a short-sleeved dress that had an open back and scoop neckline, accentuating my breasts. “This is too tight!” I complained. “Shut up,” Kat said while curling my hair. “Where are you taking me?” “It’s Archie’s birthday, and I have planned something big for him.” He grinned widely. “There are only a few people invited, including Conan.” “Kat!” I chided. “Why did you invite him?” “Of course, for publicity. You know I want to grow my fashion business and it will be a great help if Conan shows up at the party.” “How will it be helpful?” “Well, he’ll promote my fashion brand.” He winked. “Do you know how much he charges for one commercial? But he’s doing it free for me.” “I’m wondering why?”“He just wants me to bring you up to the party.” “Ugh!” I rolled my eyes. “Now, you, too, have become selfish.” “Cami… it’s not like what you’re thinking.” Kat blurted while turning me

Present Camille “It’s so romantic.” I slurred while grinning and leaning against Conan’s shoulder. God knows how much alcohol I had just downed.“You look so cute when you’re drunk,” Conan chuckled as he caressed my hair lovingly. The water across the river was twinkling like fairy dust. We were sitting on a bridge, gazing at the bright moon and enjoying a chilly evening. It was just the two of us enjoying this quiet time together, with no one to disturb us. Would I like Conan Arthur? I couldn’t believe I was sitting next to him, sharing my happiness and pain with him. I couldn’t believe it. And I really gave him a chance. “I’m glad to be here with you, Conan,” I said. “I know you’re tipsy, but I’m enjoying every minute because tomorrow you’ll be your cold old self again.” “I’d like to stay with you.” I smiled and gripped his arm. “I will always...” he whispered and planted another kiss on my head. “Are you interested in fucking me?” Conan tensed next to me, staring me down w

PastCamille “What?!” Rika shouted angrily as she was watching me with wide eyes. “You’ve got to be kidding me?” She let out an empty laugh while clenching her jaw tightly like it was about to break. “Camille, tell me you’re lying. Please, dear, tell me…” she shook me by the shoulders and her expression seemed like she was about to cry. I lowered my eyes, looking at my fidgeting fingers as anxiety was gripping me deep inside. I didn’t understand what to say or how to explain it to her. She had always seen me as strong and feisty, but that day I was breaking apart. Samuel was doing a good job of tearing my soul limb from limb. "Speak out, bitch!" Rika yelled, making me stare at her thunderous expression. She was furious at me. “I don’t know… it just happened. I never thought that he would make my intimate videos.” I mumbled, my throat constricted due to the heaviness in my chest. “How could that motherfucker do this?” She roared, and her face turned completely red. “I’ll kill tha

Present Camille “I can do it!” I gritted my teeth and rushed out. Removing a pair of undergarments and a nightdress from the wardrobe, I put them on, ignoring his scrutiny. Without speaking, he headed towards the door, but I called out. “Scott!” Guess what, I didn’t know why I called him. I saw Scott’s back rising and falling rapidly as his hands clenched tightly. Without speaking, we knew what we felt at that moment. As he spun around and hauled me into an intense kiss. I was struggling to breathe as he was bruising my mouth. The next moment, his body covered mine as he slammed me against the wall and kissed me hungrily. I kissed him back with the same hunger and need. As much as he needs me, I need him. Scott paused suddenly, breathing hard in my mouth and avoiding my gaze. His face and muscles tensed in pain. We stood like that for a moment before I spoke. “Get off me!” With a furious expression on his face, he snapped his eyes at me. Almost wrathfully, he clenched his jaw
