Chapter 77: Secrets Shall Remain Secrets

While we were having breakfast Joanna looked at me with a suspicious gaze. 

"Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked giggling.

"Because you haven't told me how the weekend went." She raised her eyebrows and nudged me.

I flinched my gaze and swallowed down, "It was just working and we went out for dinner. Thanks for the dress by the way." I said trying to sound less guilty than I truly was.

"Ah-ha! You found the dress which means that you had to dress up!" She exclaimed longing to know more as she waited for me to start telling her why I had to wear it.

I took a long breath and shook my head, "the days went well. You know he doesn't want me to tell anyone..."

"What?" She scoffed loudly as she rolled her eyes.

"He can't be serious? Why does he care if you share what you two do together with someone else?" A glimpse of disbelief in her voice.

"I don't know, it's just one of his rule." I shrugged, I took a bit of a biscuit.

"I want to know," Joanna complained pursing her lips to pretend she was crying.

"I will only tell you that I had the best days of my life," I said, as a happy smile curved my lips.

"Now you made me even more curious!" She scoffed once more and joined her hands together in a beg.

"Please, don't make me keep breaking the rule." 

"Fine," Jonna gestured with her hand to say never mind then she went to wash her cup.

"Thank you," I whispered, starting to put the ingredients back in the fridge.

"Ready for the first day at your job?" I asked taking the advantage of the situation to change the subject.

"Yes, I am. But I also am nervous." 

I smiled, helping her with the dishes, "it's normal to be nervous." I reassured her, "but I am sure your first day will go well."

I helped Joanna pick the dress and then accompanied her to the place. I hugged her and wished her good luck and then I drove back to work.

Walking back inside made my heart fill with distress and sadness as I knew Cameron would be there for the last day and only to examine the progress we made with Simon.

I took a deep breath and slowly reached the office when I went there Cameron and Simon haven't arrived yet.

I found the dossier Cameron had when he made me see his list of potential clients, a smile grew on my lips and I caressed the dossier before putting it in the desk's kneeler.

A few minutes later Cameron and Simon walked in together, Cameron smiled hugely when he saw me.

"Good morning." He winked at me and my heart skip a beat.

I cleared my voice to hide my shyness and happiness at that moment, "morning." 

Simon sat in front of me and Cameron followed him. 

"I saw the statics of people who had visited our website after the event and percentage increased of 180%." He said with a proud big smile on his face, I took a deep breath of relief.

"We earned about 70% more than how much we spent. Three people bought the exposed Lamborghini that day and two more came to see it." I added, darting my gaze between Cameron and Simon.

"It went great!" Simon exclaimed gesturing with his hands. 

"I want to keep my promises, Lily I will give you the raise I promised you." He stretched his hand. I shook it, "thank you."

Simon then spoke about the company and the bright future I have working there and then after ten minutes of his talking, he cheered and congratulated me one last time before finally leaving.

Cameron and I finally remained alone, "I knew from the beginning that we would be a great team." He said shrugging, probably still teasing me and reproaching me calling our collaboration unexpectedly successful when we talked with Simon a while ago.

I giggled, "well, you were right." 

"I always am," he stood up and winked again before he walked away.

I rolled my eyes at his insolence and went back to work.

My office was back to the usual conditional silence and I focused on my job without thinking too much about Cameron, I didn't give him the dossier not because I forgot to do so but because I wanted to keep it to have a memory of him. And also because I liked his handwriting. He even had a delicate raffinate handwriting, almost similar to a girlish one yet elegant just like a high-class man's handwriting could be.

His stroke of the pen was thin and definite, I stared at it for a few seconds until one of my assistants walked in and I had to quickly put it back in the kneeler.

"Miss Waldorf, your client Nicholas Willey is waiting for you."

I widened my eyes and immediately stood up, walking to the corridor where the client was waiting for me.

"Hello, I am glad to see you here," I cheered shaking his hand.

"Hello! I came here to see the Lamborghini exposed during the event and then I am also looking for a Jaguar car to give to my cousin for his birthday." He explained what he was looking for as I walked to the exposition garage.

I walked through the cars exposed, the different models of cars from freshly new to the most antique and rares.

I stopped by in front of the Lamborghini he set his attention on.

"Is this the one you were looking for?" I asked, even if I already know that was.

"Hmm, hmm." he nodded, he critically scrutinized it, walking around it for few times. His gaze traveled through the glasses and then moved down to the tyres.

"What can you tell me about this car?" he finally set his gaze on me but I got a little surprised when he asked me such a thing. 

I usually get asked that kind of question by people who barely knew the car industry or who had never bought a luxury car before.

But someone like him who probably knew everything already about the car got me a little perplexed.
