Chapter 356 Success
"Come out and have dinner with me tonight, huh?"
He said.
Eileen immediately got angry: "Having dinner with you or with your
client?"
"Eileen, don't be so loud with me, I'm doing this for your own good."
From the beginning to the end, Arnold had been speaking with a gentle
tone, revealing a vague smile through his words.
But the more he did, the more Eileen felt he was up to no good.
She originally thought Arnold was sincerely fond of her and was willing
to be her simp, but she realized last night that it wasn't like that, that if
you really like someone, you can't accept her having a relationship with
someone else, just like she couldn't accept Ayan and Camille, so she
was just a plaything and a pawn in Arnold's hand.
Even when Arnold just said he would marry her, she didn't believe a
shred, he was just coaxing her.
Eileen snorted coldly, âYou're not doing it for my best interests at all,
you're only doing it for yourself, Arnold, and I'm suing you for what you
did to me last night."
"Suing me? Eileen, think carefully before you speak, what do you think
you can do by suing me? You're the one who's embarrassed, and now
that Ayan is ignoring you, do you think he'll help you? You can still lean
on me now." He said it with a lot of courage and finally threatened her
with what happened last night: "Last night you had a good time with
that Mr. Hughes, I watched your interaction, you enjoyed it!"
Eileen's face turned pale furiously and instantly understood what he
meant?
She said, "Did you take the video?"
Arnold didn't say anything, just smiling.
Eileen lost control: "Arnold, are you still human?"
"Eileen, I said, don't be so mean to me, as long as you behave, I won't
hurt you, eh?"
Eileen cut the phone off straight away.
She was in tears and her heart was filled with endless pain and hate.
Arnold was really not a man.
She clenched her hands into fists, but there was nothing she could do.
Looking at the hung-up phone, Arnold was not annoyed, but just
instructed his secretary, "Go to pick her up at the place where she lives
tonight.â
"Will Miss Khan say yes?"
"She'll say yes, she doesn't have a choice.â
Arnold hooked his lips and smiled, the smile in the corner of his eyes
getting deeper.
The secretary asked in a low voice, "Mr. Burton, Miss Khan won't really
tell Ayan about this, will she?"
"Tell Ayan? Heh, if Ayan knows it, it will just make him even more dislike
her, if it were you, would you tell him?" He coldly snorted, not worried
about the concern at all, he coldly said: "If she is really so stupid to tell
Ayan, so what? Would I be afraid of him?"
"Of course you are not afraid of him, he is nothing." The secretary
hastily agreed.
Arnold unilaterally hated Ayan, because he has always been very
jealous of Ayan, who was better than him in every aspect, the elders of
the family were always asking him to look up to Ayan, so he hated Ayan
more and more.
However, this is not the main reason that led to split of the two, the real
cause that let him and Ayan to draw a line and never deal with each
other was that Ayan refused to cooperate with him to get the
underground casino and loan sharks business few years ago. Because
Ayan refused the offer, even his brother Tomas also turned his back to
him, and finally he gritted his teeth and made a good fortune, but it
didn't last long, because the business was reported, resulting in a
seizure. If not for the Burton family, even he got caught up in it himself.
He thought Ayan was responsible for all this. And Ayan was worried
he'll overtake, so he loathed Ayan and vowed to make Ayan fall under
his wing.
As for the wooing for Eileen? Of course it's fake, he didn't even care
about Eileen.
He's only pursuing Eileen to make Ayan look bad.
But all these years it have not had any effect on Ayan, especially
recently Arnold deliberately spread the news of frequent interactions
with Eileen, but Ayan didn't respond at all, which made him doubt
whether Ayan's fondness for Eileen was real or not?
In the Hospital.
Grandma's surgery had been going on for almost eight hours now.
During the surgery, Dr. Ellis's fellow student came out once. Camille's
heart was in her throat when she saw the door to the surgery room
open, and she stood up and walked up to the door immediately, Dr.
Ellisâ student said, "Mrs. Simpson, don't worry, professor told me to
come out and tell you and Mr. Simpson that everything is fine with
Grandma and the surgery is about to be over. And so far it's going very
well."
Camille subconsciously looked at Ayan and nodded her head in a rush
with a thankful face, "I see, thank you, you all worked so hard."
"This is all what we should do, but it is professor who works the
hardest, so I'll go in first and help him." After Dr. Ellis's fellow student
finished speaking, he turned around and entered the operating room,
and the door closed after that.
Camille stood still, with her eyes staring at the closed door for a long
time without blinking, Ayan took her hand: "Dr. Ellis said that everything
is fine, don't worry, please have a seat, Grandma should also come
out.â
Camille nodded, then followed Ayan over to sit down.
Camille leaned on Ayan's shoulder, she said with emotion: "Ayan,
grandma's life is really quite difficult, I used to think she was my
mother's biological mother, but later I realized that she had no blood
relationship with us, she could have been left me alone, but she treated
me very, very well, so I told myself that I must pay her back. *
"Well, I understand what you mean, what you are doing now is in
return, but I think using return to define your relationship with Grandma
is a bit incomplete, well, technically you and Grandma are each other's
company, you are not a âfamilyâ, but much more than a âfamilyâ, I will
accompany you to pay respect to her in the future, okay?"
"Okay, you're right, we're family, and family can't be defined in return,
Ayan, thank you."
Camille tilted her head to look at Ayan's jaw, he was so perfect looking
without any flaws, she never imagined that she could sit with him like
this and simply chatting with him, but this was the way a real couple
should be, right?
Camille gave a silent smile.
Around 7:00 p. m., Grandma's surgery was over.
The nurse wheeled Grandma out of the operating room, followed by Dr.
Ellis, and Camille immediately went to the ward bed and whispered,
"Grandma?"
But Grandma's anesthetic hasn't worn off yet, so she can't wake up that
fast.
Dr. Ellis said, "Grandma needs to go to the Bioclean Treatment Unit for
twelve hours, if everything is normal then she can go back to the
general ward, because it is a heart transplant, it will take at least
twenty-four hours to wake up, but you can rest assured that the
operation was very successful, Grandma is old but she is in good
physical condition for her age. "
Camille nodded her head, feeling relieved, but still felt a little uneasy
watching the nurse push her grandmother to the Bioclean Treatment
Unit.
Ayan had a brief chat with Dr. Ellis, and then let Dr. Ellis go to rest for a
while, after all, the surgery was so long and strenuous.
Ayan took Camille over to the Bioclean Treatment Unit to see her
grandmother, and then repeatedly asked the nurse to help take care of
her.
He said, "Dr. Ellis said we can skip the vigil here tonight, we'll go get
something to eat and then go back to bed with you, alright?"
Camille withdrew her gaze and followed Ayan away.
The two came out of the hospital and casually found a fancy restaurant
and ordered a few dishes.
But Camille didn't have much of an appetite, and Ayan said, "It's not
good for you to eat nothing, your body can't hold up, you have a game
tomorrow, and Grandma is not supposed to wake up until tomorrow
night, and after that you have to take care of her, so you have to eat,
okay?"
Camille took her chopsticks, then nodded gently.
Watching Camille eating, Ayan then took out his phone and turned it on.
After dinner, he drove back to the apartment with Camille.
As the two of them just got out of the car and were about to walk inside,
Ayan's cell phone suddenly rang at that moment.
He looked at the name of the caller, a handsome face immediately
flooded with cold indifference.
Camille saw that he didn't pick up and subconsciously asked, "Why
didn't you pick up?"
