Chapter 37 The Domineering Man
Maxwell frowned slightly and shoved a piece of gum into Camila’s mouth to relieve the pressure in her ears.
Camila was instantly touched by Maxwell.
She blushed and turned her head away, not daring to look at his face again. She was afraid that she would be attracted to him again.
The journey was very long. Camila, who was excited at first, was getting tired.
Her eyelids were drooping, and she fell asleep in no time.
Next to her, Maxwell was quietly reading a book until something pressed his shoulder.
Turning his head, he saw the sleeping Camila resting her head on his shoulder. Her long curly hair softly touched his wrist.
The morning sunlight shone on Camila’s pure and quiet face. It gave people a sense of peace.
Maxwell was stunned for half a second, and then he held Camila’s head upright with a disgusted look. However, it wasn’t long before her head fell over again. After this happened a few times, Maxwell finally compromised.
Camila was restless when she slept. Maybe because she had felt insecure since she was a child, she hugged Maxwell’s arm and rubbed herself against him, just like a lovely cat.

Maxwell’s expression gradually changed from disgust to helplessness, and he was finally numbed.
Camila was really tired and slept for several hours this time.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw herself like an octopus clinging to Maxwell’s arm, and she was leaning against Maxwell’s chest. She was so shy that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
“Why didn’t you wake me up?” Camila muttered in embarrassment.
“You slept like a log. I couldn’t wake you up,” Maxwell snorted coldly.
Although she was scolded, Camila was not angry. She
thought back to the time when she slept in the same bed with Maxwell and dreamed about burrowing into her grandmother’s arms…
Maybe…
Camila’s face was as red as a rose, and she was too
embarrassed to think about it any further.
Luckily, it wasn’t long before the plane landed.
Maxwell had contacted a driver to pick them up, and Gideon was taken straight to the hospital.
After settling Gideon down, the two came out of the hospital and took a taxi to a hotel.
It was raining heavily outside the car. Camila held an umbrella for Maxwell, and the two entered the hotel in a mess.
Maxwell realized that his most important suitcase was still in

the taxi.

Inside the case was an important project proposal for a big client. They had an appointment in a few days. The contents of this plan were a trade secret, so it could not be transmitted over the Internet.
Camila could see Maxwell’s anxiety. She rushed to the front desk, using her fluent Oclian language to ask for help.
She hoped that the hotel could check the surveillance video to see the license plate of that taxi so that they could contact, the driver.
Soon, the hotel receptionist found the license plate of the taxi. Maxwell immediately decided to go to the police station, and he asked Camila to wait for him at the hotel.
But just after Maxwell left, the hotel receptionist pointed to the driver’s head in the video, saying that she knew this person. He probably lived in an apartment not far away.
Camila asked about the exact location of the apartment and rushed out of the hotel with her umbrella.
The rain was heavy. Camila walked hard in the rain, occasionally seeing pedestrians and asking for directions. After half an hour, she saw the taxi they had just taken. It was parked in front of a seven-story apartment building.
There it was.
Camila happily ran over to the taxi, but there was no one in it, but the driver had left a phone number.
She dialed the number, and after negotiation, the driver

agreed to give the suitcase back to her, but Camila had to pay an extra 1,000 dollars.
Camila agreed.
Soon, the driver showed up at the gate of the apartment building, holding the suitcase that Maxwell had left in the car.
The driver didn’t know what was in the suitcase because he couldn’t open it, but seeing Camila in such a hurry, he suddenly thought that 1,000 dollars was too little.
The driver held up five fingers.
Camila was furious, feeling this man was too greedy.
Camila warned him that if he didn’t return the suitcase, he wouldn’t even get 1,000 dollars because they had already called the police.
When the driver heard that, he was about to run away with
the suitcase.
Camila saw this and rushed to grab the suitcase from him.
“F k off!” The driver was enraged and kicked Camila in the
calf.
Camila fell to her knees, but she was still clutching the suitcase.
The driver threw a punch.
“Stop!” A shout rang out. A figure ran over and kicked the driver in the wrist.
The driver groaned in pain and then received another kick in

Two policemen came up and pinned him to the ground.
Camila looked at the angry Maxwell in shock.
“Do you know how dangerous it was just now?” Maxwell pursed his lips tightly. “If I had come a little late…”
Soon, the police found half a packet of methamphetamine and a dagger on the driver.
Camila was taken aback.
“You are scared now?” Maxwell helped the soaked Camila up.
At this point, Camila was still clutching the suitcase.
Maxwell got even more p d off.
He kicked the suitcase far away, picked up the injured Camila, and strode toward the hotel.
The rain trickled down Maxwell’s well-defined face, and his wet shirt clung to his body, but he didn’t care. His steps got faster and faster. He rushed hastily toward the hotel.
Camila pressed herself against Maxwell’s chest, listening to his powerful heartbeat. She suddenly felt that the warmest haven in the world was not as good as Maxwell’s embrace at this moment.
She admitted that she had fallen in love with him.
She saw Maxwell kick that suitcase away.
At that moment, her heart was captured by this domineering

Camila spent half an hour coming here, but Maxwell carried her back in a dozen minutes.
He was indeed strong.
As soon as Maxwell returned, he asked the hotel staff for a first aid kit, but fortunately, Camila was only slightly bruised.
The suitcase that Maxwell had kicked far away was picked up and brought back to the hotel by the two policemen.
In the next few days, Maxwell went out early and came back late. Camila went to the hospital during the day to accompany Gideon for all kinds of examinations, and she went back to the hotel in the evening to have dinner.
That night, Camila had just had dinner when she received an offer from a well-known finance company in her home
country.
She was ecstatic.
This financial company ranked at the top in the industry for three consecutive years. It mainly provided financial consulting and other services for enterprises.
Camila was hired as an online teacher, with a monthly base salary of 800 dollars and a commission calculated according to the number of customers attending the online training
courses.
Most of the target customers were the bosses of big enterprises, so only senior and elite accountants were competent.
