“How did you offend him? Is this related to Debora?" He couldn't think of any plausible cause for Isaac to target Camila.

The thing was, Isaac and Camila hadn't held a wedding ceremony, and the man himself never acknowledged their relationship in public. It went without saying that apart from the Johnston and Haynes families, no one else knew that they were married.

That included Forrest.

Camila hadn't seen the need to tell him, since at the time, she was under the impression that she would eventually divorce Isaac.

Unaware of the complicated matters between Isaac and Camila, Forrest could only assume that their conflict had something to do with Debora.

Forrest spoke again before Camila could answer him.

“Actually, this is the first time that I've seen Isaac pursuing a woman. I still think he has bad tastes, though. What on earth does he see in Debora?"

As for Camila, she didn't care whom Isaac Liked or pursued. Besides, even if she agreed with Forrest's opinion, each person was entitled to their own likes and dislikes.

Just because they detested Debora didn't automatically mean that everyone else would.

After hearing Forrest's remarks, Camila became sure that he was indeed close with Isaac.

“That time," she said carefully, “the man you asked me to treat in your stead, was it Isaac?"

She had already guessed as much after Willie had introduced himself as Isaac's assistant.

She was only asking Forrest now to confirm her hunch.

“That's right, but remember not to tell anyone." Forrest had absolute trust in Camila.

If not, he wouldn't have asked her for that favor in the first place. They were both silent for a while, then Forrest said, "I'll speak to Isaac for you."

Camila thought it would be best to tell him about her relationship with Isaac then, but she didn't know how to break the news. After some deliberation, she chose to hold her tongue.

“Thank you."

“Come on, we're friends." Forrest flashed her a smile. "Didn't you say you would treat me to a meal Last time?"

Camila chuckled. "I did. Lunch is on me."

At the office of Paramount Corporation.

Isaac walked into his office, having just come out from an important meeting.

Willie immediately rushed to his side and said, “Mr. Johnston, I happened to see Miss Haynes and Forrest having Lunch together."

Isaac's head whipped around in surprise.

“What did you say? Camila and Forrest know each other?"

Willie was just as surprised when he had first found out.
