Chapter 38 He Did It Himself

Camila smiled and said, “Is that all it takes?” Silas responded, “Since you aren’t willing to join my company, I have to come to you. I’m not going to let your talent go wasted.” Tilting her head, Camila looked him in the eye with a mischievous smile. “You’ve never seen my design works before. How can you be sure that I’m a talent? I may just be a fraud.” Feeling speechless, Silas gave her a look. “Did you forget that you included your design works in the resume that you sent me?” Camila was surprised. “That resume was sent in by South. I don’t even know which design works he included.” Silas was slightly startled. “That kid sent it in on behalf of you?” “Yes. He wanted me to join your company. My plan when I first got back was to run my own fashion studio, but he tried every way to get me into your company.

Who knew…” Camila spread her hands and shrugged, not finishing the sentence. Who would have expected that so much would happen since then? Silas responded rather apologetically, “I’m sorry about what happened in the past. Now that I think about it, whatever happened was pretty dramatic. Had I not seen them with my own eyes, I’d never have believed them. I was also there at the airport the day you landed, and I saw that you had a man’s phone in your hand. The next day, when you showed up at the office of the Nolan Group for an interview, I also just saw that post that was critical about your actions with Brian, and that’s how my misunderstandings about you deepened.”

Startled, Camila chuckled. “I witnessed how a man stole a lady’s phone, so I later decided to get the phone back using the same method. On the day of the interview, I used Brian’s phone to make phone calls because Brian fainted. After that, Silas nodded. “I know. I’m sorry for misunderstanding you.”

Hearing this, Camila tittered magnanimously. “Don’t worry about it anymore. I don’t take things personally.” “Thank you for that, Miss Brooklyn,” Silas smiled and responded. “About investing in your fashion studio, it’s settled then. I’ll transfer you the money tomorrow.”

Camila did not expect him to be serious about it. “Mr. Nolan, are you serious about it?” “Of course.” The look on her face made him chuckle. “I’m going now. Please make sure that you

lock the doors.” Camila nodded. “Sure.” After Silas left, Camila still stood there. She was still in disbelief as to why he would invest in her business. Did he genuinely think that he would make money from that investment? After closing the door, she walked back and was frightened by the person in front of her. “Y-

You’re not asleep yet?”

South commented with a big smile on his face. “I love being in Uncle Silas’s arms.” Camila’s face dropped. “South Brooklyn, let me warn you; please stop playing tricks. I don’t want him to feel that we’re taking advantage of him time after time.” South puffed up his cheeks and replied, “He won’t. I feel that he likes us, and he likes you too. He took you out for meals, and he even carried me.” Camila frowned.

“That’s all because we saved his grandpa. We have to know our limits. If you keep responding to him, he might think that we have an ulterior motive.” South responded, “Isn’t that normal? Mr. Nolan is single, and so are you. Since he’s cleared up all the misunderstandings, isn’t it good if you two can start seeing each other?”

Camila stared at him. “What’re you talking about? Just today a woman was coming at me because he was trying to drink on my behalf.” South puckered up his lips. “You needed Uncle Silas to drink on your behalf?” Camila responded, “I didn’t ask for it. He did it himself.”
