Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 329

As soon as that thought crossed her mind, Camila Davis quickly shook it off.

If Mr. Williams was asking this kind of question, he must have his reasons. She couldn’t let her best friend’s influence distract her into overthinking things.

She tapped her forehead, took a breath to calm herself, and replied, “I’m alright, thanks.”

Dennis Williams nodded. “Good to hear.”

And that was it—no further questions, no extra words.

Camila found it a bit odd but didn’t press. If he wanted to say more, he would.

The next day was Valentine’s Day.

Melissa and George, her friends, had to rush back to their hometown that morning for work, so they couldn’t stay long.

The house felt strangely empty after they left, and little Lillian seemed a bit down.

After all, she’d grown really close to them over the past few weeks. Suddenly being apart was a bit of a shock, and the sadness was written all over her face.

Camila watched her quietly, thinking it was actually a good sign—her little one’s ability to feel and express emotions seemed to be coming back. That was progress.

She scooped Lillian up and cuddled her. “Hey, sweetheart, don’t be sad. How about we go see Uncle Dennis this afternoon? Would you like that?”

At the mention of Dennis Williams, Lillian’s mood brightened a little.

That afternoon, Camila took her out right on schedule.

When they arrived at the coffee shop, Dennis Williams was already waiting. He sat by the window in a perfectly tailored suit, looking completely at ease, sipping his coffee. Every movement was effortlessly elegant, with a golden glasses chain catching the sunlight—though even that shine couldn’t compete with his striking profile.

He always managed to look impressive, Camila thought, almost amused by how true his reputation was.

She led Lillian over. “Hope you haven’t been waiting long?”

Dennis looked up at her, his eyes warm. “Not at all, just got here myself.”
