His question caught her off guard. She instantly shook her head with a chuckle. She was so broke to even afford her son's fees not to talk of owning a car.
"No I don't"
Cameron fell into a deep thought. If she doesn't own a car, then whose car was parked in her garage last night? He shook his head slightly to brush off every thought that he was having. After all, she was only his employee. Why worry about her so much?
And like always, that blurry image flashed past his eyes. He held his head in pain. Noticing that she was still around, he dismissed her.
Once she was gone, he reached for a drawer attached to the desk and pulled out a small plastic containing white pills.
He grabbed the bottled water resting on the desk and popped a pill into his mouth.

Ashley turned off her computer and proceeded to the door with Brittany waiting behind for her. Cameron also stepped out of the office and began walking behind them.
The three got into the elevator which went awfully silent. Not even a peep squeak from the ladies was heard.
The two breathed a sigh of relief once the elevator doors opened and he stepped out.
"Oh my God! What planet did he come from? He looks too good to be real-
Ashley rolled her eyes hard. How many more ladies are going to fall for his charm? He's good looking, yeah. But he was equally arrogant about it.
Sometimes he acts like he cares and other times he acts like he doesn't care at all.
"Trust me, your boyfriend loves you more"
Brittany giggled and followed Ashley's line of sight to where the red car just pulled over. "Right? He's here. I gotta go. See you tomorrow"
Ashley waved at Brittany until she got into the car and zoomed off. Her eyes were drawn to the two who walked out of the building.
Cameron spared her a brief glance before walking to his car. He held the door open for Abby to get in and he followed suit.
She stared at her feet just waiting for whatever cab to stop or appear. His car hadn't moved yet for unknown reasons.
Her ankles were begining to hurt standing on these heels. And suddenly, a car pulled over in front of her.
She recognized that car instantly, it was too shocking to be true. The windshield rolled down revealing the face of the man who she's married to.
Her heart skipped a beat. What was happening?
"Get in" he ordered but she stood transfixed on that spot refusing to move an inch.
What if this was a trap he wanted to lure her into? She took a step back in denial.
But Andrew Morales was a man who doesn't take no for an answer. He stepped out of the car and walked around it to get to Ashley.
He was taken back by her different look. Why was he just noticing this now?
"What the hell are you putting on?..Let's go home. Keith is waiting for you"
Ashley snapped her head to him in surprise, that was not true. Keith was currently with Sharon.
"That's a lie Andrew! I'm not going with you"
Andrew hissed sharply and grabbed her by her arm yanking her closer to him.
"Get into the damn car! Don't create a scene out here-
A gasp left Ashley's lips when Andrew crashed on the car behind him. She looked up to see the figure towering over her with a dark gaze.
"You again?! Weren't you humiliated enough yesterday?! You crazy Ex boyfriend!" Cameron barked.
He grabbed Andrew who was still recovering from the punch and raised his hand to hit him again but the next words that came out of his mouth rendered Cameron speechless.
"And who do you think you are to interfere?! She's my wife!"
Cameron took a step back in surprise. He turned to Ashley who immediately avoided his gaze which meant that it was true. She didn't try to deny it either.
Abby quickly caught up with them panting slightly. She stared at Ashley for a second and back to Andrew. Feeling lost about everything, she held Cameron's arm.
"Cam. What is going on-
Cameron turned around and began walking to his car without looking back. Abby was left speechless at his attitude, she faced Ashley once more and pushed her shoulder lightly.
"What on earth did you say to him?!"
