It was Camille's first visit to the Simpson's manson since her pregnancy
was made public, and Talia had ordered the kitchen to prepare a table
full of dishes that Camille would love and that were suitable for
pregnant women.
At the dinner table, Callum handed Camille a copy of the assignment
he'd had his lawyer draw up during the day: "This is a gift from me to
you and the baby that I should have given you when you married Ayan,
so don't refuse this time."
Callum gave a letter of transfer in which he gave Camille and the baby
two percent of his shares in the Simpson Group to him personally.
Two percent is enough to make Camille a director of Simpson Group,
more than Ayan was when he first joined the group.
Camille was completely frozen.
She didn't reach out to take it, but simply refused, "Grandpa, I can't
take it."
Callum immediately scowled, "Take it, Cami, it belongs to you, and you
should take it."
Fletcher and Talia also mean the same thing: "Yes, Cami, Grandpa said
so, so you can take it, we are all family anyway, why are you polite?"
Camille's face stiffened slightly, she was feeling some pressure.
Once these shares are taken, the relationship with Ayan will be tied
tighter.
This is why she did not take the shares given by her grandfather when
she got married, she did not want to use these outside things to tie this
man to herself to death.
She pursed her lips, a little at a loss for what to say?
Ayan also noticed her silence, reached out and brought the equity
transfer letter over and looked at it: "Grandpa, I'll hold it for her first, and
I'll give it to her when she wants to sign it, otherwise you'll probably
have to wait until tomorrow morning for a pregnant woman to make her
choice.â
Callum was stunned, then smiled: "Okay, you keep it, you keep it, but I
want to make it clear to you that this is for Cami and the baby, not you."
"What? You are afraid that I will give embezzlement and hogging?"
"Hm, it's not that it's not possible."
With Ayan's interruption, the atmosphere was enlivened.
Talia has been taking care of Camille, noting what she's had a couple
of bites of and then the next time she's doing it, and if she's had less,
she won't serve it next time.
The changing tastes and uneven hormones during pregnancy require a
lot of care, and Talia, as a veteran, has to give Camille her best.
After dinner, Talia took the initiative to say, "Cami, have you lost weight
again recently? You are now eating for two people by yourself, so it's
important to keep up with the nutrition.
Camille subconsciously looks to Ayan for his opinion.
Ayan received a light response: "No, we directly find one to prepare
three meals a day, the family aunt you and grandpa used to keep it."
Talia also had no comment.
Just said, "Then pick well, find one with good cooking skills and good
character.â
"Well, I know."
Ayan nods his head.
Talking about this, Talia suddenly mentioned something: "Cami, I ran
into your mother today, have you not yet told the Armstrongs about your
pregnancy? I didn't know you hadn't told her, so I ran into her and
invited her over for dinner, and then I blurted it out, and she looked a
little upset, so why don't you call Ayan when you get back and explain
to her?"
Talia feels a little guilty and embarrassed when she mentions it.
She had wanted to call Camille, but she waited until now because she
was coming back for dinner tonight.
Talia was sorry, she said, âI was the one who blabbed too much and
said it without asking you, I'm really sorry!"
"Mom, what are you talking about? How is that embarrassing?" Camille
smiled a little and didn't take it personally: "It's okay, it's just a little
thing, you're not wrong."
"Are you sure you don't blame me?"
"Of course!â
Camille took Talia's hand and whispered soothingly, "Don't worry about
it, and don't worry about it, huh?"
"Cami you are so nice, just the understanding and considerate fairy in
my heart.â
Now it was Camille's turn to be shy and embarrassed by the
compliment.
The other three men looked at the interaction between the mother-in-
law and daughter-in-law is also somewhat incomprehensible, just now
also a strong apology, how the next second began to rainbow farts?
The world of women can not read.
After talking, Ayan took Camille back to the apartment.
He took the copy of the equity transfer from his grandfather and put it in
the car, asking Camille while he drove: "Why won't you take what
grandpa gave you?"
"Didn't refuse to take it, just thought it was a little too expensive."
âIs it really just because it's expensive?"
"Of course, what else do you think I'm doing it because of?"
Ayan gave her a long look, a look that made Camille feel a little
uncomfortable.
So Ayan didn't look at her for too long before looking ahead and
continuing to drive, and then asked lightly, âTomorrow I'll have Kian
compile a list of housekeeping aunts for you to choose from."
"Okay."
Camille has nothing to say, now they mainly dabble in food, so most of
the diet is to accommodate grandma, because she is not well, but she
is pregnant now and needs different nutrition, so it is true that she has
to take care of herself.
The next morning Kian brought three aunts to the house, and Camille
finally chose one who could cook all kinds of local dishes, and she
looked very kind, and started to try the dishes at noon that day.
Overall, both Camille and Ayan were very satisfied, so that's how we
settled on it.
Auntie cooks three meals a day and doesn't stay much beyond that,
and they still have their own private space.
But the day's privacy didn't last long before a phone call from Page
shattered it.
On the phone, Page got a little emotional and questioned, "Camille, are
you pregnant?â
Camille did not speak.
Page Consider her silent.
Page asked, "What do you mean? If we hadn't heard about it from your
mother-in-law, we wouldn't have known about it until now? Do you have
any regard for me as a mother or the Armstrong family?"
The other wives around her were also shocked at her lack of
knowledge, and some of them were sour, thinking she didn't care about
Camille and treated her badly.
She hadn't slept well all night and Camille hadn't called her until now,
and she couldn't believe that Talia hadn't mentioned it to Camille.
But her questioning, Camille only lightly replied: "I thought you were not
interested. So I didn't say anything. After all, it's not an important
matter, so why bother telling you?"
