“But, actually, Camila, you also know that I’m pregnant. Malcolm is worried about the
crowd at the concert, and he’s not at ease with me coming alone. So he came with me,
right, Malcolm?”
Malcolm, who was being mentioned, didn’t look very good, especially when Sophia
mentioned that he was worried. His face turned dark.
He said, “None of this matters anymore. Camila, I know I’m already a complete
scumbag. No matter how I explain it, you will always think that I came here on purpose
to show off.”
“You have quite a bit of self–awareness, Camila sneered. “You’re about to get married
and become parents soon. I just want to advise you to do good deeds for the sake of
your child’s future. That’s it.”
Camila quickly left, cursing in her heart. Why didn’t she think of it?
The VIP room was always reserved for people with special status. Malcolm and Sophia

were being so high–profile today, obviously, they wanted to occupy the VIP room! She
was foolishly unaware.
But at least Sophia’s makeup didn’t disappoint her; it was as ugly as ever.

It was like a mask stuck to her face, with layers of powder, as if she were using her face
as a wall!
It’s a wonder that Malcolm can still kiss her without worrying about accidentally
ingesting makeup and poisoning himself.
After leaving the VIP room, Camila looked for Sherry everywhere but couldn’t find her.
She found a quieter corner and called her.
The call was quickly answered. “Hello?”
It was… a man?
And why did this voice sound so familiar?
Chapter 124 The Greatest Scheme
Camila couldn’t believe her ears. “Mr. Morgan?”

“It’s me,” Maverick answered calmly, as if it were perfectly normal for a grown man to
answer a call for Sherry. “Camila, it’s working hours; where did you go?”
Camila stuttered, “I… I went to find a makeup artist!”
Maverick chuckled. “And then? You found Sherry?”
“Is that not okay? Sherry is really good at makeup. If you don’t believe me, ask your
brother!”
“I didn’t say Sherry’s makeup skills were bad. I’m just curious; you’re almost out of
money with your monthly salary; don’t you feel any sense of crisis?”

Camila felt something was off. How could a big CEO like Maverick be concerned about
the attendance of an intern like her? Wasn’t he too idle?
“No… Mr. Morgan, I will talk to you about my salary deduction later, but why did your
answer Sherry’s phone? Is she with you?”
Chapter 124 The Greatest Scheme
Maverick responded with a grunt, “Yes, she is. I just stopped her from running straight
to the VIP room.”
At least he had a bit of conscience.
B
Sherry and the two people in the VIP room were enemies. If they met, it would definitely
turn into a chaotic scene. Sherry was alone, while the couple inside had each other. If
Sherry really went in, she would be at a disadvantage.
Thinking of this, Camila’s tone softened slightly. “Oh, I see. Um, can you let Sherry
answer the phone?”
“She’s busy right now.”
“Busy? What is she busy with?”
“She’s busy restyling Christopher. With the concert approaching, there are more and
more people backstage and in the audience, and the noise is getting louder,” Maverick
explained concisely, getting straight to the point. “I personally invited her to come and
style Christopher. She has to do me a favor. After all, I have had a relationship with Mr.

Sniper for so many years.”
This statement made Camila’s eyes light up.
She had tried to gather information for Sherry for so long! But Maverick was always
tight–lipped. No matter how she tried to pry information from him, he always skillfully
evaded, revealing no details.
Was he finally ready to spill the beans this time?
Camila became excited and immediately said, “Then I’ll go find her now!”
When she hurriedly arrived at the main dressing room, Maverick was already leaning
against the side, arms crossed, waiting for the opportunity.
Seeing her approach, he straightened his body slightly and had a smile on his lips.

“Hello, Maverick!” Camila had already thought it through on her way here. If she had to
be a bootlicker, so be it. As long as being a bootlicker was useful, she would flatter him!
If Maverick was pleased, maybe she could really extract some crucial information from

him!

So Camila changed her attitude from being an aggressive person to a genuine
bootlicker. “Maverick, you have a keen eye for talent. Sherry is really impressive.”
Maverick raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised, but quickly understood Camila’s
thoughts. He smiled knowingly and said, “Not bad.”
Camila chuckled and rubbed her hands as she walked into the main dressing room.
Christopher had just finished washing off his previous makeup and undoing his hair,
and Sherry was now applying his base makeup again.
Christopher sat there, looking slim and handsome, while Sherry stood there, exuding a
gentle and sweet demeanor. This scene was so beautiful, no matter how you looked at
it!
Suddenly, someone lifted her collar from behind and carried her away.
“Hey, Maverick, can’t we talk about this properly?”

After leaving the dressing room, Maverick gently laid her down and squinted at her. “Do
you realize your mistake now?”
“I know, I know, I completely understand.” Camila laughed and admitted her fault. “Um,
Maverick, you can deduct my salary or even not pay me at all, but could you please not
let me be your secretary? I’m not good at paying attention to details and remembering
so many schedules and things. How can my brain possibly remember all that? I think it
would be better for me to be a little handyman on Christopher’s team, doing physical
labor without having to use my brain. That kind of work suits me better.”
Maverick listened silently, and he tried to suppress his impatience. “Is it really that
difficult for you to be my secretary?”
“It’s mainly because I lack the necessary skills!” Camila shrugged. “I feel like I would
only hinder you from your busy schedule. Let me contribute to you and the company in
the role of a handyman.”
Maverick finally understood. He had hinted and implied for so long, but this naive girl
still didn’t grasp it. Did she truly believe he was intentionally making things difficult for
her?
