Chapter 413: Deliberately
Camille looked out the window at the Simpson Group building, with her
face revealing slightly rigid, but a faint smile spread when her eyes met
Talia's gaze.
She said, "Mom, I'm not gonna go up."
"Cami, are you upset? I came over with no other intention, just to get
something, but if you really don't want to go up, that's fine. I'll just go up
myself, don't worry, I'm sure I'll teach Ayan a lesson, I'll stand behind
you 100% to back you up, so you don't need to have any worries."
Talia said it forcefully, as if to express to Camille her determination that
she must help for the truth, not for the family.
Camille was amused by such a reaction from Talia, and the indifference
on her face dissipated as she said, "Mom, I know you love me, I'm not
upset, please go up and get it, I won't go up, I'll go down and stand for
a while."
Sitting in the car, her space was enough, but she still wanted to stand
up, which made her more comfortable.
Talia hurriedly went down and opened the car door for her, and Camille
was so touched and warmed by the thoughtfulness and affection by
Talia. She then whispered, "Mom, thank you!"
"Silly girl, you're welcome."
Talia smiled gently.
Camille stood by the car, Talia instructed Camille that she will get down
soon, and then she was ready to turn around and walked towards the
Simpson Group building. Just as Talia was about to turn around,
Camille raised her gaze and inadvertently swept some people to the
front door.
Her gaze fixed on a man and a woman who were walking out of the
front door and she watched them momentarily.
It was Ayan, with a young woman in a suit, the distance was not too far,
but also not close, but Camille could still tell it was a beautiful woman
from her profile.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and just looked at it, then tried to
withdraw her gaze to look elsewhere.
Just then, Talia turned back as well.
Talia said, "Forget it, I am not going."
Camille looked to Talia in confusion, âWhat's the matter, mom?"
âIt's okay, let's just go shopping.â
Talia walked up to her, took her arm, and tried to lead her to the car, the
whole action was really smooth, even with a hint of deliberate reaction.
Camille frowned and asked, "Mom, did you see him?"
Talia's movements stalled and she subconsciously looked at Camille,
her eyes a little flustered and averted, as she subconsciously said, "I ...
I didn't see anything."
Camille couldn't help but smile, "Are you worried that I'll be upset?
Mom, I'm not upset, you can come over now if you need to see him
about something."
Talia refused, she said, âI'm not looking, let's just go shopping, but you
should not think too much, that woman is probably her client or partner
or something, if he dares to do anything wrong to you, I will definitely
clean him up."
Talia righteously assured Camille.
But her attitude was always reticent, her heart was even calmer, and
she said lightly inwardly to herself, "Well, well, since he's busy, let's not
disturb him."
As for whether it was a client or a partner, she was not curious and did
not want to ask. The reason she echoed Talia's words was just that she
didn't want Ayan to know that she and Talia had seen the scene and
she did not want to hear his explanation.
But her mind Talia naturally does not know, but has been frowning in
the eyes of God seems to float unbelievable bewilderment.
Camille stared at her for a while and did not have any reaction, Camille
followed the gaze again, Ayan and the woman had walked to the car
tray to sit in the car.
Camille casually asked, "Mom, do you know her?"
Talia immediately got the idea of whom Camille was asking.
She shook her head in a hurry, "I don't know."
She followed suit, pulling open the door and letting Camille get in first
before she got in from the other side.
Although Talia had said she didn't know, Camille could still detect that
Talia's expression and reaction were a bit too different.
But if they knew each other, why didn't they do what they did when they
first met Sophia?
What's wrong with Talia?
Camille couldn't help but be surprised, but she didn't pursue anything
further; Talia didn't want to talk and she didn't want to pry.
After all, everyone has his or her own privacy.
This morning, Camille and Talia a piece of shopping malls and some
mom and pop stores, although the baby does not know the sex yet,
before also prepared a lot of things, but there is a luxury grandmother is
naturally not too much, can not wait to move the entire store home
before you want to close the feeling.
After the shopping, the two had lunch together, and after dropping
Camille off at the office, Talia took the mother-in-law and daughter-in-
law's loot back to the Simpson's mansion.
But downstairs at Camille's office, Talia couldn't help but say to Camille,
"Cami, don't take what happened today to heart, Ayan definitely won't
do anything wrong to you, so ...."
Camille just nodded and didn't say anything. Was Talia so cautious for
fear of her misunderstanding or for fear of her deeper investigation?
Camille watched the car leave and then went back to the company
building.
She is busy and has plenty of time, so she won't go wandering around,
much less have extra thoughts to judge other things.
This matter was originally put behind her with time and forgotten, until
two days later in the afternoon, a hometown express mail to her hands.
Sienna and Yessica were worried when the courier asked her to sign
for it in person, but Camille wasn't. After all, there were so many people
at the office in the middle of the day that nothing would happen.
She signed for it and did not open it immediately, but took it back to her
office and put it on her desk for a long time.
Sienna teased, "It's not like Master Simpson created the surprise for
you, is it?"
Camille gave her a look, "Big deal.â
She picked up the delivery carton and looked at it, it was not clearly
marked with what it was, so she picked up the scissors and gently cut
through the packaging glue, then carefully unwrapped the carton.
At first she thought it was a prank and what was inside must have been
harsh, so she was prepared for it.
But when she saw what was inside the delivery box, she was a little
disappointed.
Because there is only a similar envelope wrapped in paper do not know
what it is?
Camille slightly frowned from the inside to take something in his hand,
from the touch and can not determine what is?
But she had some inexplicable premonition in her heart.
She unwrapped the paper, and that's when she realized it was a photo.
When she saw the figure on the photo, her eyes subconsciously
paused.
It was Ayan, and a woman.
Her brow was furrowed, her bright and beautiful eyes were flooded with
a faint indifference, and her reaction did not even show the slightest
displeasure or difference to Sienna, her best friend, so she just casually
asked, "What is it?"
Camille looked at nearly a dozen photos in her hand before handing
them to Sienna.
She walked to the sofa and sat down, picked up the fruit that Yessica
had just washed and put it into her mouth.
Sienna saw the photo in her hand and asked, "Who is this?"
Camille said faintly, "I don't know.â
The only thing she can be sure of is that the woman in the photo is the
one she met with Talia downstairs at the Simpson Group. Of the nearly
ten photos, three are recent, and the rest look a little older, because
Ayan was not as calm as she is now, probably during her college years
or even before.
Sienna couldn't quite see what Camille's reaction was.
She asked in a shallow voice, "Don't you have anything to say?"
"Say what?" Camille tilted her head to look at her as she ate her fruit.
Sienna looked deeply at Camille, then her eyes returned once more to
the photo and she said, "They're supposed to be close friends?"
âIs it just friends? From what I know about Ayan, he's not much of a
picture taker, so they should be one step closer than very good friends,
right?"
Camille corrected Siennaâs description.
