The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 96

"'Cause Luca got framed, I stepped in to lend him a hand, and he ended up misunderstand me." As she spoke, Penelope seemed a bit bashful, "Guys usually have a soft spot for their first love, you and Mr. Crane might grew up together and he treats you as a sister, but you ain't blood-related. Besides, Carter spoils you rotten and he thinks the world of Mr. Crane, he'd be over the moon if you two hit it off. Plus, Kamilla, you're all grown up, don't you wanna have a deeper relationship with the man you fancy?"

Kamilla hung her head, her eyes sparkling.

"I..."

Her heart pounded, "I do hope so."

Of course, she hoped to have a deeper connection with Aidan.

Kamilla tightened her grip on her own hands, but how could she possibly do such a shameless thing!

Penelope could tell Kamilla was wavering.

Guests and socialites buzzed around the banquet hall in small groups, crystal chandeliers illuminating their fancy outfits, making the scene incredibly lavish.

The sweet smell of champagne wafted through the air, and Alexa was playing the cello on stage.

Penelope seemed to have a grip on the mindset of young girls like Kamilla, "Oh, opportunities like this only knock once, if you don't seize it, just pretend I didn't say anything, I'm outta here."

Seeing her about to leave, Kamilla quickly grabbed her, "Wait!"

Her face turned red, "Don't leave, I..." her voice trailed off, "I didn't say no."

Penelope took her hand, "Kamilla, I'm gonna be part of the Lindberg family too, I wouldn't do you dirty. I'm all for helping you out. If you're in, I'll go find someone to help you get ready, tonight, you and Mr. Crane..."

Kamilla's cheeks were burning, she seemed to have made up her mind, she stomped her foot, "Fine!"

Seeing her finally agreed, a smirk crept up Penelope's face, 'This Kamilla is so naive, agreeing so easily.'
