Kian glanced at the time on his watch before saying faintly, âI'm afraid I
can't right now, Mr. Simpson has an important client.â
âIt's okay, I can wait."
"Good."
Camille followed Kian out of the conference room, she offered to wait in
the break area of the secretary's office, the two walked towards the
secretary's office, the door of the president's office was also opened at
that time, a tall, sexy and hot woman came out from inside, followed by
Ayan, both of their faces with smiles, seemed to have a good chat.
The woman looked at Ayan with adoring eyes and asked, "Then it's a
deal, have a drink with me tonight, just the two of us, huh?"
The woman said the words, and her hand also subconsciously raised to
climb on his arm and gently hitch.
Ayan did not avoid it, but just slightly narrowed his eyes and looked at
her with a light smile: âI'll let someone arrange to send you back to the
hotel, as for drinking anytime, eh?"
The woman grunted lightly and didn't say anything, then Ayan said, "I'll
give you a ride to the elevator.â
"Well, after all, it's a great honor for Mr. Simpson to give me a ride
personally.â
The woman and the man looked at each other and smiled, then headed
for the elevator.
As she passed by Camille, the woman gave a faint smile of profound
meaning.
As for Ayan, he naturally didn't even give Camille a straight look.
Until the two disappeared from sight, Camille followed Kian to the
lounge area and sat down, but her expression was somewhat visible,
her brow was furrowed, an indescribable and very inexplicable
displeasure spilled out from the bottom of her heart.
A silent question spreaded in the mind.
Who was that woman?
They looked familiar, have they known each other for a long time?
Camille pursed her lips tightly, and the thick gaze under her eyes grew
deeper.
At the elevator, Ayan was waiting for the elevator with a woman who
looked at him and said with a light smile, âThat's your wife just now,
isn't it?"
Ayan didn't deny it, just looked at her, "What are you trying to say?"
"Quite pretty.â The woman raised an eyebrow and said lightly, "Are you
having a fight now?"
Ayan narrowed his eyes and didn't say anything.
The woman added, "I guess it must be you who is unilaterally angry,
right?"
"Looks like you don't need a ride from me."
"See, I was right, I must have been, you're all irritated now.â
âLeila!â Ayan called out her name in a warm, light voice.
Leila Baker smiled lightly: "Don't be so aggressive, but women know
women best, your wife is not a very easy to coax type, she is very
smart and sensible, ordinary tactics can not get her to give in, do you
want me to help you?"
âYou think you'll be that kind?" Ayan said nonchalantly, âIf you don't
want to cooperate you can just say so, and if you dare to give me
trouble, Leila, even if we grew up together, I won't be polite.â
"Ayan, really auntie was right, you are really unrecognizable now."
"Are you done? You can leave when you're done." Ayan eyes are cold,
a face is also expressionless, but his impatience has been clearly
heard between the words.
Leila just laughed and then said lightly, "Ayan , if you take this attitude
towards me to your wife, I reckon you'll be single soon.â
Leila's words fell, the elevator door also opened at this time, she
hooked her lips to look at Ayan and then directly into the elevator, in the
elevator door closed a second before, she did not forget to raise her
hand and wave.
Ayan slightly narrowed his eyes, deep dark pupils shrunk, and then
only then turned around and walked back.
He saw Camille sitting on the sofa in the lounge area, probably sensing
his figure and looking up at him, and looked at each other.
But soon she got up and came towards him and she said, "Ayan , I
want to ask a question related to the project, is it convenient for you
now?"
Ayan did not answer immediately, but just stared at her in silence, but
he looked for a long time did not see any difference from her face and
eyes.
He hummed lightly, his narrow eyes were dark and cold, and his voice
was as light as water: "You won't talk when I say it's inconvenient?"
Camille wonders why he's looking angry again?
This was the first word between them since she arrived, so did he not
want to hear her speak?
Camille was briefly silent, then Ayan gave her an indifferent glance
before raising his feet and heading straight for the office, and Camille
hurriedly followed.
The two returned to the office and Camille whispered, "Have you really
decided to kick Fumiko Estate out of this project?â
"The project so far Fumiko Estate has not played any role and they just
want a piece of the pie, but now that they have gotten what they
deserve, it is normal rule that the subsequent ones have nothing to do
with them."
He went to his desk and sat down, then casually lit a cigarette and took
a drag, because he was smoking, Camille just stood a few steps away
from the desk and did not approach.
But her actions fell into Ayan's eyes as a deliberate attempt to keep her
distance.
His eyes were fleshly and cold, and his handsome profile became more
and more taut and cold.
Through the curl of white smoke, Camille looked at him and said, "Will
the Simpson Group be notified by the Fumiko Estate or should 1?"
"Kian will contact them, you just need to do your thing, you are now
working directly with Simpson Group, then you need to follow the rules
of Simpson Group, the progress of the project needs to be reported
every day, I need to see visible results, understand?"
Camille wrinkled her brow lightly, she felt a little surprised that the
project had already passed the most important start-up phase, how
come she still needed to see the progress and report every day now
that everything was stable?
And he is not in charge of the project, so why do we need to report to
him?
Camille was just a little surprised, but didn't think much of it.
Because Ayan seemed to read her mind and told her lightly, âThis
project is a project that Simpson Group is looking at this quarter, I don't
care how it was before, but now that it's restarted, there can't be any
slackness."
"Okay, I get it."
Camille nodded and didn't say anything further. As for the Fumiko
Estate, since Kian would inform her, it would save her the trouble.
The atmosphere quieted down with it.
A cigarette was also smoked out by him and thrown into the ashtray, he
lifted his eyelids and glanced at her without warmth, his voice was not
warm and asked, âThere is still something?"
Camille looked over her shoulder for a moment and shook her head,
âIt's okay, then I'll go first."
After saying that, she lightly pursed her lips and turned around with the
intention of leaving.
As for the matter of Sienna, she will not mention it to Ayan, because
Sienna is not his friend, he has no obligation to help her, so she does
not want to impose on others, nor does she want to force again and
again.
Her nature is always the same, some things to ask for but not want to
ask again, even if the process is very difficult, but she is not willing to
repeat the mention once, because her stubbornness and self-respect
does not allow her to do no bottom line.
But Camille had just turned around and hadn't even taken a step when
Ayan's phone rang.
He picked up, "Did Grandpa get over it?"
It's Talia calling.
Talia said, "Why don't you come over here and see if he got over it or
not?"
"Okay, I know, she happens to be with me, I will take her with me."
Ayan said without changing his face.
Talia, somewhat puzzled, asked, "What are you talking about? I just
asked you to come by yourself, I didn't say Cami."
"Well, yes, Camille will come with me." After that, without waiting for
Talia's response, he already cut off the call and looked at Camille:
"Grandpa misses you and wants you to go to the hospital to talk with
him."
Camille didn't question this, but simply whispered, "Now?"
