Chapter 298 - Courage
Ayan has always arranged someone to secretly protect Camille's
safety, but he never bothered to ask Camille's every move, giving her
enough space and freedom.
But at this moment, listening to Kian's question, he frowned with a
questioning look in his eyes: "She didn't go to the office all day
yesterday?"
"Yes."
Kian nodded his head.
Camille didn't mention half a word to him, didn't even tell him she
wasn't going to the office.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, with a thick depth under his eyes, and
said faintly, âYou check where she went with Sienna yesterday?"
"Madame did not leave the apartment yesterday, she stayed there the
whole time."
This is known from the people who protect Camille.
This made Ayan even more surprised, since he didn't go to the office or
anywhere else, which, according to what he knew about Camille, was
impossible unless something was going on.
The look under his eyes gradually became cold and stern, the corners
of his mouth flushed with a touch of cunning, and his words were light:
"Check what she went to do the day before yesterday?"
If she is all right and nothing is different, he will never go to investigate
a clear.
But she is too different, something must have happened, otherwise she
can't even go to the company, not even out of the house, which is too
rare.
Ayan waved Kian out, and he sat alone in the large office, his tie
loosened and a face flushed with a somber coldness.
His handsome face revealed a cold displeasure, then he picked up the
phone aside and dialed Camille's cell phone directly.
When he answered, he went straight to the point and asked Camille,
"Where is it?"
"At home." Camille didn't lie, but answered truthfully.
Or else you'll have to fill it with more lies again.
After her words, the atmosphere was briefly quiet, the other party did
not speak again, Camille was a little surprised to ask: "Ayan? Why don't
you say anything?"
"What are you doing at home? Don't you have to go to the office?"
He reacted smoothly, always at an unseasonably high level of warmth.
He wanted to know how she was going to answer?
Camille pursed her lips slightly, she subconsciously glanced at Sienna
sitting across the table, then responded nonchalantly, âTalking to
Sienna, didn't want to go to the office, I felt a little tired, so I haven't
been there since yesterday.â
"Why didn't you tell me?"
He took up her words and continued to press the issue.
He was not the least bit surprised, obviously already knowing, hence
the call.
Her fine, curly eyelashes trembled slightly and she said in a shallow
voice, "I didn't want to worry you, so I didn't tell you."
"Camille, you really don't have anything you want to say to me?"
"Ayan, did you misunderstand something? I'm just feeling a little tired
and with Sienna, so I want to completely relax for two days because it's
time to compete and I want to give myself a break before the
competition, it's as simple as that.â
Ayan did not immediately respond to her words, but was only briefly
quiet.
Through the phone, you can also clearly hear each other's heartbeats.
Then, he slowly said, "Okay, I know."
He didn't pursue the question, let alone continue to say anything, as if
he believed her answer?
Camille pursed her lips gently as she asked in a low voice, "Ayan, do
you have anything else to say?"
He said no more, just told her to have dinner together tonight.
The call ended with a huge sigh of relief for Camille.
Camille sulked as she looked to Sienna and said, "I'm getting scared to
talk to him."
Ayan's shocking power was so stressful that if he didn't believe it, then
he would subconsciously think that she had joined with Preston to
create the trouble and rumors.
Sienna said, "Some wine for courage?"
"Kiss, I'm pregnant!â
She said helplessly.
Sienna beamed and asked in a small voice, "Shall I say it for you?"
"Don't you dare?"
"A little afraid.â Usually are not afraid of Ayan, but when there are things
have to say or some fear, after all, this man is really not good to
provoke.
Sienna sighed as she said, "Cami, if you really can't, just send him a
message and tell him to forget it?"
Camille did not react very well, although she did not know how to
speak, but she has thought about it, this matter must be said, it is
impossible to hide, because this is not a small matter of one person,
this is related to the Simpson Group and the Simpson family, including
so many people, she can not do in order to hide to pretend that nothing
has happened.
Camille spent the whole day in apprehension, her heart was not at
peace for a moment, just like a student who has to take the entrance
exam, both nervous and worried.
But the face of the always have to face, no matter what can not be
avoided.
Camille hadn't been at the office for two days, and Preston hadn't had
any contact with her, but he was still getting to and from work on time,
which is what Sienna had specifically asked Yessica about.
Sienna can't help but spit: âI have to say that Preston this person's
heart is not generally heavy, you see he did so many things completely
without any faint heart and panic, also not afraid of will be arrested,
until now also has not to escape, what does he mean ah?"
Camille has not issued any response, and she has always been in a
state of ambivalence about the matter.
One side is what Preston did for her, although she does not accept the
good of this way, but she can not really stay out of it, she will feel
responsible for it, so she will feel guilty about it.
Ayan arrived home before 6:00 pm.
Camille had already returned to her side of the house, and as soon as
he entered the door Camille heard the door open and immediately
came in from the balcony, and she said, "Ayan, why are you so fast?"
Ayan gave her a look and said while changing his shoes, "Come back
early to accompany you to go out to eat fa, want to eat something?"
Camille thought seriously, "Is it okay if we go to Western food?"
She hadn't eaten Western food in a long time, and was a bit of a
craving for steak all of a sudden.
Ayan didn't have any comments, so naturally, she let her eat whatever
she wanted.
Camille changed her clothes and went out. While waiting for the
elevator, Ayan asked, "Should I call Sienna?"
"No, she's having pizza tonight, she's been eating lovely lately and
craves me every day."
She showed her aggrieved face.
Ayan smiled lightly, "When you can eat, let you eat enough, huh?"
Camille nodded her head with a smile.
For the words on the phone during the day, neither has mentioned
them again to each other.
Ayan took her to a famous western restaurant nearby, the two of them
asked for a window seat, the whole process is very harmonious and
pleasant atmosphere.
After that, she also took her to the supermarket to go around to
eliminate food, and bought some fruit with her can eat snacks.
Camille is now five months pregnant, but apart from the big change in
her belly, her limbs are still very slim and she doesn't look like a
pregnant woman at all.
It was already nine o'clock at night when the two returned home from
outside.
Ayan put the stuff in the fridge and then washed the fruit for her before
following, "I'm going to the study to take care of some work, so you can
watch TV for a while by yourself, huh?"
"Good." Camille nodded, not noticing the slight flicker of stiffness in his
eyes.
Ayan reached out and rubbed her hair, then stood up straight and
walked towards the study.
He closed the door on and dialed Kian's number directly.
He asked, "How's the investigation going? Any results yet?"
"Check it out.â
"Say."
Kian reported truthfully: "Madam left the hospital yesterday and went to
see Miss King, then stayed at a western restaurant called The Moore
for nearly an hour before leaving with Miss King."
"What's she doing at the restaurant?"
"This I do not know, I specifically went over to see, the restaurant has
been out of business since yesterday, listen to the nearby business
said it was transferred, but why not continue to open they are not
clear.â
Kian's response caused Ayan's face to stiffen.
He narrowed his eyes and asked in an indifferent voice, "She went in
alone?"
âYes, Miss King didn't go in and kept waiting outside.â
"So there's no way to know what's going on inside with anyone?"
Kian has felt Ayan's air pressure is very low and cold, but still the hard
head truthfully answered: "So far it does seem so, so continue to
check?"
