A One Night Stand With My Boss

Chapter 194

"I still haven't finished the paperwork that will enable me to move abroad, so probably around the beginning of next month, like the 3rd or 4th," the woman said with a smile. "The landlord lives not far from here – a really nice person. The rent here is $500 cheaper than similar places in the neighborhood. It’s a great deal."

Camila thought it over. She was eager to move out of Connor’s place, but this neighborhood was the only one within her budget.

"Why don't you just move next month? It's not that far," Erica understood her concerns.

"I’ll take this place," Camila said to the agent with a smile.

"No problem, I’ll set up a meeting with the landlord right away. Just give me a moment," the agent replied, beaming.

"Would you mind if I check the water and electricity?" John asked the woman.

"Of course," she replied with a gentle smile.

"Thanks," Camila said to John.

She didn’t know much about these things. She hadn't done a proper inspection of her last rental and ended up facing a myriad of issues after moving in.

John inspected everything and confirmed there were no issues.

The agent was efficient and quickly arranged for the landlord to come to the real estate office to sign the contract. The landlord was a woman in her fifties, graceful and always smiling, clearly easy to get along with. She brought the original property deed for them to inspect.

"The lease is double deposit and one month's rent in advance, starting from the 15th of next month. This gives you a few days to move."

"Thank you," Camila said, signing the contract as soon as she verified it was okay.

Camila held the rental contract after leaving the real estate office, feeling incredibly relieved. "Thanks for your effort. Let me treat you to dinner."

"Darling, I'd love to, but I have to go back to the magazine," Erica said, looking regretful.

"No worries, we'll make another plan. Your call," Camila chuckled.

"I'll drive myself back to your place. You guys go ahead and have dinner."

"Sure, drive safely."

Erica waved goodbye.

"Shall we go grab something to eat? What would you like?" Camila asked John.

"I’m easy. Anything’s fine," John looked around and suggested, "How about that diner over there? It looks pretty good."

Camila looked where he was pointing and laughed, "Don’t worry about the cost. Let’s go for something fancier."

"I think that place is actually quite nice," John insisted.

"Alright, my wallet thanks you," Camila chuckled.

They entered the diner, and it was getting busier as it was almost lunchtime. They found a table by the window and ordered some recommended dishes.

"Your new place looks really nice," John commented as he sipped his tea.

"Yeah, I love the balcony. It’s filled with lots of green plants. I can just imagine how delightful it would be to sit there on a sunny afternoon, reading a book and sipping tea," Camila described the scenic view of the balcony, almost immersing herself in that pleasant scenario.

"I remembered that you work at Future Inc.. You must be busy with work. Relaxing on the balcony after work sounds really pleasant," John said.

Camila nodded with a smile. The view might not compare to Belleview Heights, but she really loved it. It felt like home.

"I remember Monday is the grand opening of your flagship store. I've taken the day off to check it out," John added. He was a tech enthusiast and very interested in Future Go. Although it was currently beyond his budget, he still wanted to see this new tech product firsthand. Most importantly, Camila would be there, and he hoped to spend more time with her.

"You’re welcome to come," Camila invited.

A spark of anticipation flashed in John's eyes. "It's a date then. See you Monday."
