Chapter 377: Handle
âIt's impossible to spell it out, she could have denied it, but it would also
let Preston know about that. It will be difficult to find Preston again, if
her reaction is the same as my guess, then find a reasonable excuse to
make her believe it and muddle through, it is best not to let her have
any suspicion.â
"Okay, I got it."
This ended the call after Kian responded.
However, Ayan stood there, and never left. his gaze leveled at the sky
outside the window, the gloom on his face didn't relief from beginning to
the end.
A question popped up in his mind, why was Camille so sure that Eileen
had something to do with this?
Was it her own speculation or was someone behind the scenes
instigating her?
From what he knew about Camille, she couldn't simply settle for
someone like this, there must be something hidden in this?
He narrowed his eyes slightly, the phone held in his hand tightened, he
hesitated for a while before dialing a number out.
The answer from the other party was quick.
A woman's warm, muted voice rang out, "Mr. Simpson, what can I do
for you?"
"Miss King, you're not at the hospital with Camille anymore, are you?"
He asked.
Sienna was silent for a moment, then said, "No, Cami wants to eat
dessert, so I went back to the apartment and asked my aunt to make
her some dessert, and I will send it over tonight, what's wrong?"
"No, just asking.â
He simply responded.
Sienna didn't think so. She couldn't have simply called to ask a
question, she thought back carefully, that every time Ayan called her, it
was something important and it was all related to Camille.
She asked, "Mr. Simpson, is there something you'd like to ask?"
Ayan didn't deny it and asked directly, "She strongly believe that
Gramdma's death was related to Eileen, do you know what's the
causes behind all this?"
"Mr. Simpson, how would I know this? Wasn't the reason for her
suspicion caused by Eileenâ's behavior? Didn't Cami tell you about
this?"
Sienna probably also guessed the specific conflict between Camille and
Ayan, plus some of the things Camille said to her, and associated with
the purpose of this phone call from Ayan at this moment, so she was
pretty much sure.
But she thought Ayan had made the wrong call, and it was impossible
to get the slightest important information from her.
Whenever and wherever she was, she favored Camille, no matter right
or wrong, she has never been the one who support the truth rather than
the people. Therefore, she always favored Camille.
Why would Ayan not understand about this? Of course he did.
Ayan knew there was nothing he could ask from Sienna, so he said,
"Can you persuade her for me? She can't get too excited at the
moment, she needs to recuperate. All she is thinking is how to convict
Eileen, but she doesn't think that this has nothing to do with Eileen at
all. Miss King, you are a bystander, so you are much sensible than her,
so can you please do it for me?"
"Mr. Simpson, I'm sorry I can't promise you. I can't do this, although I'm
not Camille, although my feelings with Grandma is not as deep as
Camille, but if grandma really died in a man-made accident, then I think
we still need to find out clearly, as for why Camille suspect Eileen,
Camille is not being unreasonable and smear Eileen, she has the
evidence. But Mr. Simpson, do you feel guity?"
Sienna rejected Ayan's request, instead, she even suspected him.
Her words made Ayan's face gloomy, warm, and indifferent, he couldn't
help but sigh under his mind, these two girls were indeed good friends,
their ideas were the same.
But Sienna didn't take advantage of it either. The two of them went
back and forth, and ultimately no one acquired any information.
After ending the call, Ayan was a little upset and dialed a string of
numbers out directly after short two seconds of silence.
Before the other party spoke after the connection, he said indifferently,
"Haven't you and Bella already broke up the engagement? When do
you plan to take Sienna in?"
"I would like to, but she doesn't want to talk to me."
"Heh, you can't even handle a woman? Can you still do it? If you can't,
I can find someone else.â
Ayan snorted lightly.
Rex said somewhat helplessly, "Ayan, I didn't provoke you, did 1?"
Ayan didn't speak.
Rex asked tentatively, "What's wrong? Did she mess with you?"
He remained silent, just gave a silent sigh.
Rex then said, "She blamed me for breaking up the engagement with
Bella because she was upset. and I didn't know what to do to get her
back?"
"Camille is pregnant now, and Grandma's death had something to do
with Eileen, and because of my analysis, she thinks I'm biased in favor
of Eileen, so she is now giving me a cold shoulder and totally not
wanting to see me."
"Sienna wouldn't even meet me, and I didn't even have the courage to
call her."
âI'm not biased towards Eileen, I'm just stating the facts, there's no way
this has anything to do with Eileen, if she had the guts to do this, she
would have pointed all the evidence at someone else instead of herself,
why would she let someone catch her in the act if she had the heart to
do it?"
The two of them spilled their hearts out in a word.
After Ayan's words, Rex did not continue to continue to say, but some
curiosity asked: "So you have other objects of suspicion in mind? If this
matter has nothing to do with Eileen, then who is involved?"
"Nothing has come of it yet, but the only thing that's certain is that
there's no connection to Eileen."
"You trust Eileen that much?"
âIt's not a belief, it's just a normal judgment, don't you think so?"
Ayan asked, wrinkling his brow.
Rex said, "Ayan, I know what's on your mind and I understand that you
can't be wrong in your judgement, but Camille is the person in question,
she can't possibly know what's going on in your mind? Not to mention
the fact that you and Eileen had a history together, which is how a
normal person would react, so it's no wonder she's suspicious of you."
"So it's my fault?"
He asked with a frown.
Rex said, "You're not wrong either, just in the wrong way. Since Camille
doesn't believe you right now, wouldn't you just do something to make
her believe?"
What would make her believe in something? What would make her
believe in something?
Ayan's eyes narrowed slightly in contemplation.
But while the two had an argument, Ayan didn't leave the hospital
completely.
He returned to the ward once more after his phone call with Rex, and
his turning back took Camille by surprise, having expected him to leave
and not come back, at least not today.
So what's the situation now?
The two didn't speak, Ayan walked over to the couch, and in a short
while Kian came in with a laptop and some work papers that needed to
be used.
Kian nodded to Camille as a greeting, and has been talking softly with
Ayan about work since then.
The original cold atmosphere in the ward followed and became warm.
While they were busy over there, Camille lay in her hospital bed and
slept, disturbing no one, and so it went on into the night.
When she woke up again, Kian was gone and Ayan was the only one
left.
She sat up from the bed, he heard the movement and looked over,
spoke in a warm voice: "Get up and wash up for dinner, Sienna brought
you dessert, I didn't disturb you because I saw you were resting.â
Camille froze, hesitating for several seconds before making a sound,
"Hmm."
She got out of bed, grabbed her phone and went to the bathroom.
There was a message from Sienna on WeChat, she said, "Why are you
asleep and why is Ayan still there?"
"I just woke up." As for why Ayan was still there, she didn't know.
There was no reply from Sienna, and Camille didn't wait. She simply
washed up and went out.
She walked over towards Ayan and ended up sitting on a single couch
to the side, with the meal for two already opened in front of her.
She was the first to pick up her chopsticks and start eating, Ayan
started later.
The two finished their meal in silence, then he wrapped up and put all
the thermos boxes to one side, his eyes also met Camille's eyes at this
time, and asked softly: "Want to take a walk? I'll walk you down, you've
been lying down all day, this will be tiring, hmm?"
Camille frowned slightly as she asked, somewhat unsure of what she
meant, "You .... What's wrong?"
