Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 661

When she said that, Dennis Williams’ eyes darkened, the blue in them deepening.

In the end, he could only relent. “Alright,” he said, “if that’s what you want, I won’t stop you. But, there’s one thing you got wrong, Camila.”

Camila Davis looked at him, puzzled. “What did I get wrong?”

Dennis smiled, his eyes glinting with mischief, but his words were serious. “Nothing could ever wear down what we have. If anything, it’s only going to get better. I’m not going to let anything come between us, okay?”

His steady, confident voice filled her with a sense of comfort.

Of course, Camila trusted him. She nodded, her response soft but sure. “Yeah. I believe you.”

Dennis pulled her gently into his arms.

The two of them stood there, holding each other, just soaking up the warmth and tenderness of the moment.

Outside, people liked to whisper that she was divorced and not good enough for him. But Dennis always thought he’d found a hidden gem, overlooked by everyone else.

To him, Camila was someone to be treasured and fiercely protected.

But Camila never forgot her responsibilities. She still had work to finish.

After a while, they separated, and she went back to mixing her samples—her project was due soon.

Dennis hovered nearby. “Need a hand with anything?”

Camila shook her head. “No, this is one of those things best left to the experts.”

Dennis knew he’d be more in the way than anything else, so he didn’t insist.

But Camila smiled. “You can keep me company, though. It helps.”

That made Dennis smile, too. “Alright then. I’ll keep you company every night this week.”

“Sounds perfect.”

Having the person you love want to spend time with you—Camila couldn’t have asked for more.

The soft lamp light wrapped around them, their feelings quietly winding together.

Meanwhile, over at the Lee household, the mood was far less peaceful.

Cynthia Lee stormed into the living room, a scowl on her face.
