Chapter 386

Chapter 386 A 5000 Dollar Meal David hadn’t even wanted to hire me at first. Wait, why am I thinking about David again?

Ever since meeting Cameron, she’d been comparing him to David without even realizing it.

What is wrong with me?

Caroline shook her head, pushing aside the unnecessary thoughts and focusing back on work.

Finished Cameron spoke again. “I tried the aloe skincare line you developed. I even recommended it to my family.”

“Oh?” Caroline smiled. “That’s great to hear, Mr. Cameron. Thank you for your support.”

She wasn’t sure if he was just being polite.

The Scott family? They only used high–end skincare, the kind that cost thousands–sometimes even custom–made. Would they really useCaroz, a budget–friendly brand?

She assumed he was just being polite.

“Yes, they really liked it,” Cameron said. “But I’ve been curious–why Caroz? The name sounds quite similar to yours.”

“Well...” Caroline hesitated. “I wasn’t the one who named it, so I’m not entirely sure, Mr. Cameron.”

Seriously? Why did David take Boris’s suggestion and go with such a name? And now, even Cameron is asking about it! Ugh, why am I thinking about David again?

Cameron’s voice brought her back. “By the way, have you ever thought about developing a luxury skincare line? I have access to some high–quality ginseng–what do you think about creating a high–end collection infused with ginseng extract?”

Though phrased as a question, his tone was relaxed and open, making it feel more like a conversation than a business pitch.

Caroline felt at ease and soon found herself answering his questions effortlessly.

Before she knew it, the sun had dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in warm hues.

The meeting had flown by. She hadn’t even noticed how much time had passed.

No wonder Boris had been so confident about her meeting Cameron alone–he really was as charming and refined as people said.

“Ms. Brooks,” Cameron checked his watch. “It’s getting late. If you’re free, would you like to grab dinner?”

“Would that be an inconvenience for you, Mr. Cameron?”

He smiled. “Even the busiest people have to eat. And I’d love to continue our discussion.”

Since he was being so gracious, Caroline agreed. “Then I’d be happy to join you, Mr. Cameron.”

Cameron picked one of the most expensive steakhouses in town.

1/2 05:18 Wed, 5 Mar Chapter 386 A 5000 Dollar Meal would be the one paying for this meal.

No matter how easygoing Cameron seemed, he was still a client.

A meal here could cost anywhere from 1,400 dollars to 2,800 dollars.

She hesitated for a moment. I should be able to expense this, right?

That settled it–she’d enjoy the meal without worrying.

K 61%

Finished As expected, when she excused herself to the restroom and secretly went to pay, the total came out to over 5,000 dollars.

Rich people really lived in a different world. The lifestyles of the wealthy truly were extravagant.

After paying, Caroline finally went to the restroom.

Meanwhile, Cameron sat at the table, slowly cutting into his steak.

“Mr. Cameron.” A man, likely his assistant, approached.

“She paid for it, didn’t she?”

“Yes, sir. Just like you predicted.”

Cameron chuckled. “The moment I suggested dinner, she instinctively glanced at her bag. That’s when I knew.”
