Chapter 1278: Indulgence

"So why didn't he do that?"

"I don't know either. I can't figure it out at the moment, but I think he

must have something that confuses me. He wants to use Timmy to

threaten me." Camille became more and more confused as she thought

about it, but she had truly seen Timmy with her own eyes, and that was

unquestionably real.

Camille shook her head. "Forget it. It gives me a headache to think

about it. Let's see what she's going to do next.”

Sienna nodded in agreement. "Okay, but you have to tell me right away.

Don't keep anything from me."

"Yeah, I know."

"Well, focus on your work for now. We'll go out for dinner later.”

"Aren“t you meeting Rex? I don't want to disturb your time together.

That would be a huge sin." Camille quickly refused.

Sienna frowned immediately. "What's the rush? Come eat at my

restaurant. You're alone at home anyway, so just think of it as keeping

me company, alright?"

“No, really no. You go eat with Rex. After all, Rex has helped me so

much. I'll go back to the Simpson's mansion and spend time with

Timmy tonight.”

"Are you really going to spend time with Timmy?"

"Yeah, really." Camille nodded earnestly and said, "I'll stay at the

Simpson's mansion tonight. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll worry about me

being alone at home and want to come and keep me company. I don't

want to offend Rex, nor do I want to be a third wheel.”

Sienna immediately snorted. "So you're intentionally avoiding me,

huh?"

“That's not it, mainly I really miss Timmy. Besides, since Ayan is not at

home, I'll go back to the Simpson's mansion to be with Timmy!"

"Fine, I won't force you, but remember, don't see me as your last resort.

I can accompany you anytime. Rex can understand that, after all, the

time I spend with you is minimal compared to the time I spend with him.

You are the most important woman to me, and he is the most important

man to me. These two things don't conflict at all, okay?"

Sienna explained her inner thoughts seriously and in detail, looking at

Camille with sincerity in every word.

Camille gratefully nodded. "Okay, don't worry, I understand all that."

Sienna was satisfied after hearing that and didn’t continue to push

Camille.

It was still early, so everyone continued to busy themselves with their

work. They ordered lunch and ate it in the company, and after that, they

continued with their tasks.

Ayan didn't reply to the message until the afternoon. He said, “I had a

meeting after waking up, so I've been busy.”

Camille replied, "Do your thing, we can talk later after you're done."

Camille was also busy at the moment. She had to prepare many things

for the project she was collaborating on with Ayan and the Nores

Group. Even though she had Ayan as a backdoor, she still needed to

ensure that everything that needed to be prepared was done properly,

s0 as not to give anyone a reason to gossip.

Therefore, the two of them didn't chat much and continued with their

respective tasks.

Under the same sky, Preston was lying on the bed in the orphanage

director's resting room, holding Ayan's itinerary sent to him by Camille.

Since being called in by the police for questioning, he had been hiding

in the orphanage, living in the director's resting room to avoid raising

any suspicions.

The environment here was relatively decent, but a bit small. He had to

rely on the director to bring him meals three times a day. The days

were becoming monotonous.

This was the package the director had just personally brought back,

and Preston couldn't wait to open it.

Holding the itinerary in his hand, he certainly wouldn't immediately

believe it.

He casually picked up his phone and dialed the number of the Simpson

Group secretary's office.

Following the schedule on the itinerary, he probed, "I'd like to arrange a

meeting with Mr. Simpson. I'm from the Nores Group project

department, and Mr. Nores would like to discuss the project with Mr.

Simpson."

The response from the secretary's office was, "Mr. Simpson's schedule

is quite tight these days, so it's currently difficult to make an

appointment. If Mr. Nores is in a hurry, he can contact Mr. Reid. Mr.

Reid will arrange a meeting time between Mr. Nores and Mr. Simpson."

“Is Mr. Simpson's schedule really that tight?"

“Yes, because Simpson Group has many projects, Mr. Simpson's

schedule is quite packed. So, at the moment, we can't give you a

specific time. If Mr. Nores is in a hurry, it would be more convenient to

contact Mr. Reid directly.”

"Alright, I understand what you mean. Thank you. By the way, is Mr.

Simpson currently at the company?" Preston continued to probe.

On the other end of the line, the secretary's office replied, "Yes, Mr.

Simpson is currently in a meeting.”

"When will the meeting end?"

“I'm sorry, the president's schedule is confidential, and we can't inform

you. If Mr. Nores is in a hurry, it's best to contact Mr. Reid!"

The secretary's office was able to be with Ayan almost all the time,

working closely by his side. Naturally, they were professional and

carefully selected by Ayan, so it was impossible for any flaws to be

exposed in just one or two sentences.

Preston's conversation with the secretary's office ended there. He

looked at the itinerary in his hand, a slight smile forming at the corners

of his mouth, and a hint of joy flickered in his eyes. It seemed that Ayan

was nothing more than this. He really couldn't compare to a child. He

increasingly felt that his actions were correct. Otherwise, how could

Camille have entrusted him with the itinerary?

Preston snorted lightly, and a surge of motivation filled him. He

narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled with intense calculations. Since fate

had given him this opportunity, he would definitely make good use of it.

However, what Preston didn't know was that right after he made the call

to the Simpson Group secretary's office, Camille received the news.

She had instructed her assistant to pay attention and inform her

immediately if anyone called the secretary's office inquiring about

Ayan's schedule, regardless of who it was or under whose name.

The assistant, of course, had informed everyone in the secretary's

office, so as soon as the call came in, the assistant immediately

informed Camille.

At the same time, with some concern, the assistant asked, "Madam, is

something wrong? Should I report to Mr. Reid and take some

precautionary measures?"

Camille calmly replied, "Not for now. They are abroad and quite far

away. Even if something were to happen, they couldn't possibly flash

back to Hance City. So, if anything happens, I will trouble you."

"Madam, rest assured. Mr. Simpson has already given instructions, and

what you've instructed is the most important.”

Camille expressed her gratitude and then instructed the assistant that if

they receive a similar call, they should remain vigilant and inform her

immediately.

With everything taken care of, the call ended.

Camille also put down her phone and remained silent, sitting quietly on

the couch without moving.

Preston had started to take action, and she kept reminding herself in

her mind to be fully alert. She wanted to see what exactly Preston was

planning to do.

Camille didn't keep this matter a secret from Sienna. She sent her a

message to inform her. Sienna told her, "Don't worry, can't the two of us

handle him? Don't forget, he was once played by Molly and ended up

like Timmy. Molly is just an arrogant rich girl. At least the two of us still

have our brains. So, are we afraid we can't outsmart him?"
