Chapter 1190: Harmony
Camille carefully analyzed the current situation. Ayan was having a
meal with Eileen, and Preston said Eileen was filming on a set. So, did
she come specifically to have this meal with Ayan?
Camille frowned slightly with a cold expression on her face. She
speculated in her mind about what could be so important that Eileen
had to come all the way to Hance City just for a meal with Ayan. Was
this meal absolutely necessary?
The more Camille thought about it, the more serious her expression
became. She couldn't imagine what kind of situation would warrant
Eileen's special visit and Ayan's agreement to the invitation. Was it
Eileen who proposed the meal, or did Ayan want to treat Eileen?
Many questions arose in her mind, but she couldn't find a reasonable
answer. How could she not let her thoughts run wild?
However, her wild thoughts weren't about imagining any hidden
intentions Ayan might have towards Eileen. She simply wondered what
undisclosed matters might be involved in this situation.
Did Ayan have control over everything?
Camille took a deep breath and stepped on the gas pedal, driving
towards Darkmoor.
Just as she had started driving, her phone rang. She picked up her
phone, which she had thrown on the center console, glanced at it, and
her brows subconsciously furrowed because it was Preston calling.
They had just separated not long ago, so why was he calling again?
Wasn't what she said clear enough?
Camille pursed her lips and reluctantly answered the call. She spoke
coldly, "Hello?"
Preston's voice sounded anxious. "Cami, where are you having dinner
right now?"
"What's the matter?â
"There is something about Eileen and Ayan. They are meeting right
now. Let me take you there to see!" Preston hesitated, his words filled
with implications.
Camille didn't show much obvious reaction. She simply asked calmly,
"How do you know they are having dinner?"
After Camille's question, Preston immediately replied, "Cami, it doesn't
matter how I know. What matters is that Eileen and Ayan are having a
meal together. Eileen said that tonight, Ayan invited her. After dinner,
they will watch a movie together and have a date. Don't you want to
find out what's going on?"
âYou said you trust Ayan a lot, right? Do you think Ayan is loyal to you?
Don't you want to figure out what's going on? Cami, even though you
trust him, you should still be cautious. Don't put all your trust in one
man, especially considering his history with Eileen."
Preston's words were serious, and each word was considerate of
Camille. He was extremely anxious and concerned, conveying that
there was something unusual about the relationship between Eileen
and Ayan, and they still maintained an intimate connection even now.
Preston was afraid that Camille wouldn't believe him, so he
exaggerated the situation as if he were witnessing it firsthand.
Camille listened quietly without speaking, until Preston finished and
there was silence. Then, she responded indifferently, âThank you,
Preston. I understand. I've already arrived at the restaurant where
they're having dinner. I will handle this matter. Thank you for your
concern."
"Have you arrived at the restaurant where they're having dinner?"
Preston seemed slightly anxious and his tone of voice became
somewhat unnatural.
Camille didn't show any emotional outburst. She simply said, "Yes, I
have. So, don't worry. I will know the truth when I see it with my own
eyes."
After speaking, Camille ended the call first, citing inconvenience as the
reason.
She put her phone down and continued driving towards Darkmoor.
Throughout the journey, Camille's expression remained cold and there
were no significant changes in her facial expressions. After more than
half an hour, she finally arrived at Darkmoor.
She parked her car in the garage and naturally noticed Ayan's car
parked in a parking space.
She sat in the car without rushing to get out, quietly waiting inside. She
wasn't sure why she had come, but she wanted to see for herself
because she couldn't completely trust the dinner between Ayan and
Eileen.
Camille sat in the car for a long time, and during that time, Preston sent
her a message asking how things were going. Camille didn't reply,
choosing to ignore it.
She sat quietly in the car, waiting until Ayan and Eileen finished their
meal and came out of Darkmoor. Kian was clearly there too, but he
didn't come out with them.
After Eileen and Ayan came out, they got into Ayan's car, and the
vehicle quickly left the parking space.
Camille frowned, and her worries grew. From the situation just now, it
seemed like they had a harmonious meal. Camille was extremely
surprised and puzzled. Wasn't Ayan just using Eileen? Then what was
the purpose of this dinner?
According to reason, he shouldn't be so friendly with Eileen. Why would
they come out of the restaurant together like that?
At the same time, Camille noticed something. Eileen was driving the
car, and Ayan was sitting in the back seat.
Eileen probably didn't drive often, so her driving skills weren't great. It
took her several minutes to maneuver out of the parking space.
While talking on the phone with Kian, Camille pressed the accelerator
and caught up with Ayan's car.
Kian's call connected, but unfortunately, no one answered. Camille
furrowed her brow in frustration, and her expression became
particularly unsightly. With a stern face, she ended the call with Kian
and dialed the front desk of Darkmoor directly.
After just one beep, a polite woman's voice came from the other end.
Without waiting for the person to finish speaking, Camille interrupted,
"Is the president of the Simpson Group, Ayan, and his secretary having
dinner at your place tonight?"
The person on the other end hesitated for a moment and instinctively
replied, "I'm sorry, that's the guest's privacy, and we..."
âListen, go to where Ayan's secretary is staying right now and see if
something has happened. Please tell his secretary to call me back
immediately. My name is Armstrong."
Camille interrupted the woman at the front desk, her tone extremely
serious and grave. The person working in a high-end restaurant like
Darkmoor naturally had seen the world and immediately understood the
meaning behind Camille's words.
The person quickly agreed, and only then did Camille express her
gratitude. She needed to focus all her attention on the car in front of
her, so she immediately ended the call.
Camille tightly pursed her lips, feeling that the situation seemed
serious. Kian suddenly couldn't be reached, and Ayan was willing to let
Eileen drive. Didn't he know about Eileen's driving skills?
Camille couldn't help but be on high alert. Based on what had
happened today, some answers had already emerged in her mind.
However, the situation hadn't reached its final moment, and no one
knew what exactly was going on.
She lightly pressed her lips together, her eyes fixed on the car in front
of her, when her phone rang.
Because it was Kian, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
However, her expression cooled down when she saw the number. She
squinted her eyes, a faint coldness flickering in her gaze, and answered
the call without saying anything.
The other person tentatively asked, "Cami? Have you arrived at the
place where they're having dinner?"
Camille glanced at her phone, her eyes subconsciously narrowing, a
touch of cold cunning flashing in her eyes. Her tone was devoid of
emotion as she replied, "Hmm, just arrived."
âYou only arrived now?"
"Yeah."
âYou've been on the road for quite a while, haven't you?"
"Oh, I stopped to grab something to eat on the way. I just got here.
Why? Do you need something?"
