“How Do You Know!”
“I heard you mention his name. Was the call about this Sunday’s cocktail party?”
“Yes, did you get an invite?”
“Nah, why would he invite me to that kind of party?” Camila shook her head. “However, he invited Eric,
so I will go as Eric’s date. By the way, are you known to him?”
“In truth.”
“Are you sure? But he wouldn’t call you personally if you didn’t.” Camille didn’t seem to believe me.
“I am not, because it was my friend who met him.
“I see…” She changed the subject abruptly. You two look alike.”
“What?” Her statement caught me off guard.
“I was referring to Miss Torres, as you look like her. I only came to know recently that she is your aunt’s
daughter. Oh right, she also went to the same school as Eric, so she was planning to work with him. ”
“Really? I don’t know much about her. The mention of her name brought feelings of disgust through
me, even more so when I remembered that she framed me for wetting the bed in front of Eric.
“Lily, don’t you have a close relationship with her?” asked Camilo.
“Why would you ask?”
“When we were having lunch. I told them you like spicy food, but she threw a disdainful look, saying
you were a foodie from a young age and were never a picky eater. As a result, you could barely walk
because of how fat you were. The story seemed to amuse Eric, as he was laughing out loud.”
I don’t think I used to be fat. What’s wrong with Callie? Why should she defame me in front of other
people? To be honest, I was annoyed by her attitude, but I didn’t let it show on my face, as I knew that
Camille didn’t like Callie, so what she said could be an attempt at slander. “I don’t remember much
about my childhood so it’s a surprise that she remembers it so vividly”
Noticing my indifference, Camille looked displeased. “Lily, despite the rumors about how people who
like spicy food have a short temper, you sure are tolerant of others.”
“It’s not like that, because I just don’t think it’s worth throwing a tantrum over people and things that
have nothing to do
with Me.”
“And even? By the way, Eric asked someone to show Callie in his office. Would you like to take a guess
as to what position she was offered?”
“Enlighten me,”
“Eric raised her from an entry-level position, which seemed to displease her. While she tried to get Eric Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
to show her around, he had her secretary do it for her as he was busy.”
“She’s a great student, so it’s a little unfair that she works her way up.”
“Why would she want to join a company through her connections if she is an excellent
student? Shouldn’t the fact that she is one make it easier for her to find a job? By the way, doesn’t her
father need someone in his company? Why didn’t she apply
to work here?”
“How am
I supposed to know!”

Chapter 370
“Well, I guess she might be embarrassed to do that when even you, her father’s own daughter, didn’t
work in her father’s company. Yes, that must be it.”
The conversation with Camille was boring to say the least, but luckily she didn’t keep it up for long as
she left after answering a call. A few minutes after he left, Eric sent me another email asking me to
come to his office.
Upon entering his office, I smiled as I greeted him as he watched me as I walked towards him, only to
burst out laughing as I reached the front of his desk. My heart raced as soon as he did, as I assumed
he would try to lecture me in a show of his superiority. The smile only served to confuse me, so all I did
was stare at him absently.
As soon as he started laughing. Eric couldn’t hold back any longer, deciding to let go as he rocked back
and forth with laughter. I managed to ask a question when he paused. “There is good news to share,
Mr. Walker?”
