Chapter 105 Refusal
Speaking of the Conner family, they were definitely one of the wealthiest families in the country.
The Conners had a total of six children. The eldest brother, Mike, was the chairman of the Conner Group. The second. brother, John, was a famous lawyer who specialized in representing the wealthy in legal battles. The third brother, Alan, was the smartest but also the most restless. The fourth brother, Peter, was the opposite of Alan – mature, steady, and had a business mind. He was also the eldest brother’s most capable assistant.
“I have said it before, you look very much like my sister. Just for this reason, anything I do for you is worth it.”
Camila remembered the photo that Dewitt had shown her, and the girl in it seemed to be named Daniela. Could it be that Dewitt’s ex–girlfriend is the daughter of the Conner family?
“Your sister’s name is Daniela?” Camila asked tentatively.
Alan was very surprised.
“How did you know?”
“I knew Dr. Dewitt. He said his ex–girlfriend looked a lot like me, and he even showed me pictures.”
“Did Dewitt see you? It seems like I’m not the only one who thinks you look like my sister, but unfortunately…”
If it weren’t for Peter telling him, Alan would have really

thought that Camila was Ella, their sister who drowned.
Alan came to attend Ella’s funeral this time. Currently, they don’t want to tell the other people in their family about this
matter.
“I want to recognize you as my sister, would you be willing?” After accidentally seeing the promotional photos that Camila took for Glory Gaming online, Alan’s mood couldn’t calm down for a long time. The more he looked, the more he felt that Camila was exactly like Daniela.
Alan couldn’t believe that there were two people in the world who looked so alike. It wasn’t until last night when he saw Camila, and with just one glance, he was convinced that he had to acknowledge her as his sister.
Camila was very surprised.
Camila thought, “Alan is a top billionaire. He actually volunteered to recognize me as his sister?”
Camila was a little confused.
“You don’t want to?” Alan was somewhat disappointed.
“I don’t know how to answer you,” Camila said. “If you were an ordinary person, maybe I would consider it, but you are Mr. Conner’s brother. I’m worried that people will say I’m climbing too high, so let’s just forget it. Thank you for your kindness.”
“What do you think if we don’t tell Peter?” The Conner family all liked Ella, especially Alan.
“Mr. Conner, let’s forget about this matter, after all, our social statuses are too different, it’s not quite appropriate. It’s late,

please go back.”
“Alright then, get some rest,” Alan stood up and walked to the door. “You work at Conner Consultancy, right? Has Peter met you before?”
“No, very few of our employees below have had the opportunity to meet Mr. Conner.”
“Oh, can you resign and come work at my company?” Alan handed Camila a business card.
The business card read Feemster Realty.
Camila knew that this real estate company was famous in the
east.
“This company is in need of a finance director. If you are interested, you can give it a try.”
“Thank you. I currently have no plans to change jobs,” Camila returned the business card to Alan.
Alan glanced meaningfully at Camila.
This was the first time Alan had been rejected so thoroughly.
However, this greatly piqued Alan’s interest in Camila.
After Alan walked out of Camila’s apartment door, he saw a black Bentley parked next to his car.
A man sat in the car. His face was not clear, but he seemed to be the person who spoke to Camila last night.
From the back, Alan felt somewhat familiar, but he quickly dismissed his thoughts.

Based on his family background, he couldn’t have been interested in a girl like Camila.
Alan looked back at the building again before getting into the car. After smoking a cigarette in the car, he drove away.
Camila sent Alan off and then took a shower.
When Camila came out of the shower, she heard someone knocking on the door. It was the old neighbor lady.
“Miss, someone just delivered this to you.”
Camila saw it was a new phone.
“Ma’am, who gave this to me?”
“He said he was your friend, surnamed Starling.”
Friend?
Camila took the phone, went back into the room, opened the curtains, and saw that there was no one downstairs.
Her heart suddenly felt empty.
When Maxwell returned home, Gideon called him over.
Gideon asked Maxwell when he and Camila would have a wedding abroad. Due to the roots of the Starling family and the majority of their relatives and friends being overseas, it would be more suitable to have the wedding abroad.
“Grandpa, take care of yourself first. There’s no rush for the wedding.”
“You are not in a hurry, is Cam not in a hurry? Your uncle’s

family has returned. Your aunt mocked Cam for not even having a wedding.”
“She wouldn’t care about these things,” Maxwell said lightly.
“Who said she wouldn’t care? She just doesn’t speak up,” Gideon sighed. “Are you still blaming me for breaking you and Svetla apart?”
“No.”
“You have to trust my judgment. Svetla is not as innocent as you think, she…”
“Grandpa, I know what’s going on,” Maxwell interrupted Gideon. “There’s nothing else, I’ll go back first. I have a video conference later.”
Early in the morning, Camila went downstairs to go to work when an old man in his fifties or sixties called out to her.
“Miss, are you called Camila?”
“I was. Who am I speaking to?”
“My surname is Qi. I was your father’s colleague and worked with him at the same construction site back then.”
Camila had no impression of her father. Since he came to her door, there must be something going on.
“May I ask what’s the matter with you?”
“I came to tell you that the contractor who fled after your father’s accident has returned. We, the disabled workers who

were left behind in the accident, want to unite and sue him in court for compensation. Are you willing to join us?”
Camila remembered her grandmother’s sad expression as she talked about this matter. Perhaps compensation was not the most important thing, but at least it could provide some closure for the deceased.
So she agreed to be a co–plaintiff and sued the contractor named Jeff.
Camila arrived at the company, and Zora called her into the office.
Zora said that Camila was still in charge of the project at Startak Gaming.
But Camila refused without even thinking.
Camila said that she lacked experience and was not competent enough.
Zora felt a bit embarrassed.
“Camila, haven’t you always wanted this opportunity to challenge yourself? It’s truly rare to have the chance to collaborate with such a big company like Startak Gaming,” Zora advised.
“I indeed lacked experience and skills, otherwise I wouldn’t have been complained by the clients, so I’d better focus on doing well with the tasks at hand. Let’s leave this rare opportunity to someone else.”
Zora noticed that Camila was sulking, but she couldn’t pinpoint what was wrong with her. Zora regretted listening to
