Isaac's smile widened as he pulled her closer. "Come here," he murmured, guiding her to sit on his lap. Camila settled comfortably, wrapping her arms around his neck and resting her head on his shoulder.

She spoke playfully. "If you ever hear gossip about me in the future, don't let it get to you."

Isaac nodded in agreement, his expression softening with affection.

Just then, Camila's phone buzzed, interrupting their moment.

She glanced at the screen and answered the call, hearing Hyman's voice on the other end.

He informed her that Kameron's funeral arrangements had been made and that everyone from the research institute would attend in two days.

He called her because she was also on the invitation List.

Camila acknowledged the information before ending the call.

Setting her phone down, Camila relayed the news to Isaac. "The issue with Kameron has been resolved. His funeral is scheduled."

If the matter hadn't been resolved, Kameron wouldn't have been laid to rest so swiftly.

She looked up at Isaac gratefully. "Thank you."

Without his assistance, she doubted the matter would have been resolved so smoothly.

Leaning into him, she pressed her face against his chest before lifting her head to plant a tender kiss on his lips. "You've been so good to me," she murmured sincerely.

Isaac reciprocated her kiss. “Well, if I'm not good to you, who am I good to?"

Camila smiled, deepening the kiss with passion, the ambiance growing increasingly romantic.

Isaac's breath hitched as he slid his hands beneath her clothing, caressing her delicate skin. "Are you doing this intentionally?" he murmured, realizing they couldn't proceed further now.

How could she tempt him like this?

It must be intentional.

Camila then released him, wiping away the traces of their kiss. Her fingers brushed against his soft, moist lips as she insisted, “No.”

She hadn't intended to provoke him; her actions were fueled by her love for him.
