Chapter 39: Let Me Remind You (2)

To prevent Ethan and Harry from noticing the growing tension between them, Cammy took the plate of sashimi and served herself two pieces before handing it back to Greg.

As Greg accepted the plate, he placed his hand over hers and lightly squeezed it, making her frown as she glanced at him. He responded with a smirk and a wink before taking the plate, prompting Cammy to shake her head slightly.

’He’s really getting on my nerves!’ she thought to herself.

"Ms. Watson, did you manage to speak with Atty. Perez earlier?" Harry suddenly asks, breaking the silence.

"Yes, she gave me her contact information and asked me to submit any evidence I have. I’ll send it to her once I get the copy from my friend," Cammy replied.

"You have more evidence?" Ethan asked.

"Yeah, Ric said he has more at his penthouse. He only showed me what he had in his car at the time. I might swing by his place later after dinner to pick it up."

Greg’s expression darkened at the mention of Ric’s name, realizing how close Cammy and Ric were.

"Ric’s been great, he is really looking out for you. No wonder Ellie’s been encouraging you to date him," Ethan remarked casually, oblivious to Greg’s increasingly grim demeanor.

"Wow, Ms. Watson, it seems like quite a few men are lining up for you even before your divorce is finalized," Harry teased, clearly aiming to provoke Greg.

"Lining up? Oh no, it’s not like that," Cammy quickly replied, waving her hands dismissively. "No one’s lining up. Ric’s just a friend and a co-worker at my part-time job." frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

"Harry!" Greg suddenly called out, his voice louder than he intended, startling everyone. "Hit the button and order us some drinks."

"Drinks? On a Monday night?" Harry asked, surprised by Greg’s unusual behavior. Since meeting Cammy, Greg had been different. Harry had seen him with plenty of women before, and he’d never acted like this—not even when he got engaged to Annie. But something had shifted after that trip to the resort.

"That’s actually a great idea," Ethan chimed in. "Let’s toast to Cammy joining the company and to new friendships."

Cammy frowned, not liking Ethan’s words. ’New friendships? I have no plan to be friends with these two!’ she thought.

"A-About that, I was hoping you could pretend not to know me at work. I just don’t want my coworkers thinking I got the job because the COO is my best friend," Cammy requested.

"You’re best friends?" Greg asked, but Cammy simply raised an eyebrow and continued eating, ignoring him.

Harry bit his lip, trying to hide a smile, fully aware of what was happening.

Still clueless, Ethan answered, "Yeah, we were classmates in college and we got close in that short amount of time. We just clicked and the rest was history. But after she got married, we didn’t see each other for a while—though we kept in touch here and there."

"I see..." Greg responded with a sly smile.

’Poor Ethan,’ Harry thought, noticing the way Greg was watching Cammy. ’He’s definitely going to use him to get closer to her!’

"I think your request makes sense. We don’t want people getting jealous or starting rumors," Harry said. "I’ll make sure these two don’t do anything stupid."

"Thank you, Mr. Parker," Cammy replied.

"No need to keep an eye on me, Harry. I know what Cammy wants, and I’ll act accordingly before she even has to ask," Ethan said confidently.

"And what about our CEO?" Harry asked, prompting everyone, including Cammy, to glance over at Greg.

Cammy’s eyes widened as she swallowed nervously. Greg’s intense gaze locked on her while his foot brushed against her leg.

With a smirk, Greg continued moving his foot upward between her legs. "Naturally, I’ll act accordingly..."

A knock at the door interrupted the moment, and Harry and Ethan looked toward the server who had arrived in response to their call.

Cammy took advantage of the distraction to push Greg’s foot away, but he only grinned, undeterred. Amused, he did it again, enjoying the irritated expression on her face.

Cammy was at her breaking point, her patience was nearly gone. Mustering all her strength, she dug her long nails into Greg’s foot, pinching it with all her might, making him wince in pain.

Right on cue, Ethan called out to Greg. "What’s your order?"

Greg kept his gaze on Cammy and replied, "I’ll have ’Sex on the Beach’. Do you have that?" He then turned to the server.

Harry’s jaw dropped. He remembered seeing that exact drink on Greg’s bill at the resort—odd since Greg never drank cocktails. But after hearing what happened that night, Harry realized the drink wasn’t for Greg.

’What the hell is going on? Is he trying to re-enact something?’ Harry wondered.

"Are you sure? I thought you’d want something stronger," Harry added cautiously.

"Nah, I’ll stick with something lighter. Don’t want to pass out and wake up alone again," Greg said with a sly smile.

"What are you talking about? We’re not going to leave you if that happens," Ethan chimed in, clueless.

Greg turned to Cammy. "How about you, Ms. Watson? Care for a ’Sex on the Beach’ as well?"

"I’ll have a margarita, please. Thank you," Cammy said, addressing the server directly.

That’s when Ethan notices how differently Cammy treats Greg compared to Harry. He wasn’t sure what to make of it but didn’t want the CEO to think Cammy was being rude.

Ethan chuckled, trying to ease the tension. "My friend, Cammy here, is just really shy. Even when we first met back in college, she would usually stay quiet and keep her thoughts to herself."

Greg smiled at Ethan. "I understand, Ethan. Shyness doesn’t bother me. In fact, I find it... quite adorable. Some people are shy in public, but behind closed doors... well, that’s a different story... Am I right, Ms. Watson?"

’What the hell is Greg doing? Is he trying to provoke her? I better step in before Ms. Watson loses it,’ Harry thought anxiously after seeing the expression on Cammy’s face.

"So, Ms. Watson, what do you think of Cross Tech so far? Specifically, your department. I believe you were assigned to the Crossmart Web Development Team?" Harry asked.

"I really like it there," Cammy responded with a genuine smile. "My project manager has been so welcoming, and I’m grateful to all of you for helping me through my situation. I promise to give my best to Cross Tech. I’m thankful the company didn’t let me go despite my complicated situation. Instead, you’ve invested in me, and because of that, I’ll do everything I can to show my gratitude."

"Everything?" Greg drawled, raising an eyebrow.

Sensing the tension, Ethan exchanged a glance with Harry, both silently acknowledging that something was going on between Cammy and Greg. ’There’s definitely something between them,’ Ethan thought.

Ethan laughed loudly, attempting to break the awkward atmosphere. "Of course, we can all count on Cammy. I wouldn’t have vouched for her if I didn’t know she was capable—"

Before he could finish, Cammy extended her hand toward Greg, silencing Ethan. "Everything, Mr. Cross... Everything... and it’s a deal," she said firmly.

Greg swallowed hard as Cammy’s intense gaze locked on him. He felt her foot press against his inner thigh, moving upward. When it reached its destination, she smiled seductively as she pushed her foot harder between his legs and inched her hand closer, urging him to take it.

"If you take my hand, I promise, I won’t disappoint you again, Mr. Cross," she said softly.
