Chapter 431 Destruction
âYes, I have no problem with that."
Ayan responds.
Austin: âI don't have a problem with that either.â
Seeing the conversation between the two, Mr. Bell also couldn't help
but nod his head: "I can work with both of you, I already see the
success of this project.â
"You're welcome.â Ayan replied in a light voice.
Austin smiled lightly: "Then let's have a good cooperation!"
The three shook hands with each other and then met for lunch together.
After lunch, the Simpson Group had other things to do, so Ayan left
first.
Austin and Mr. Bell were staying at a hotel, so they went back together.
Austin returned to his room, and as soon as he entered, he saw Cora
sitting on the sofa with a heavy look on her face. The guilt and self-
blame under her eyes were very obvious, and with her recent
depressed mood, the whole person was floating with the four words of
bad mood.
Austin frowned and walked over to sit in the empty seat across from her
and asked indifferently, "Cora, what's wrong with you? If it's because of
him, then you should quit this project before it starts and go back to
Campole first, I don't want to see other problems appear in your
already-healed body!"
Cora had severe depression, but it was largely controlled by medication
and mood mediation, but recently she has been having insomnia day
and night, and her depression seems to be returning to its original form.
Austin had a face full of worry and displeasure.
Cora said, "No, since I'm already involved in this project, I don't want to
quit, not to mention that we have already signed a contract with Mr. and
Mrs. Bell, it's not the right time to quit.â
She said it with certainty, but she was afraid Austin wouldn't believe
her, so she reassured her again and again, "I'm fine, I'm fine, I just
might have been stressed recently, that's why I'm like this, don't worry,
I'll adjust well."
Austin wasn't saying anything, just giving her a meaningful look.
But Cora's eyes were clearly covered with a heavy heart, so how could
this be nothing?
Austin narrowed his eyes slightly and contacted his secretary that
evening after Cora had gone for a walk with Mrs. Bell.
He ordered indifferently, "Find a way to find out from the Simpson
Group whether they have been in contact during the recent period?"
The secretary of who they are referring to understands that it is Cora
and Ayan.
The secretary immediately went to check the next, although in the
Simpson Group they are at most considered guests, many things
simply can not be found out, but the Simpson Group is crowded, some
things as long as a little set of words how much there is the wind.
So it didn't take long for Austin to receive the news, and when he
learned of it a face that was gloomy and cold to the extreme.
He lit a cigarette to smoke up, a face cold if gloomy very difficult to see.
Cora also returned at this time.
He stood by the window and didn't move, and she didn't get any
response even after shouting several times.
Cora thought he was still worried about her, so she took the initiative to
go over to him. Only just as she approached, before she could speak,
her whole body was suddenly pushed against the glass of the floor-to-
ceiling window, and the man's cold gaze stared at her questioningly:
"Camille's premature birth had something to do with you, didn't it?"
Cora's eyes were lost in thought, she had been restless since this
incident happened, and she could not settle down inside.
But Ayan's side never held her accountable, let alone did anything to
her, or even asked her to quit the project, but the uneasiness inside her
about Camille and their child grew, and she couldn't convince herself
not to keep thinking about it as long as she thought about that scene.
Cora's reaction says it all.
Austin sneered, "So you're admitting it?"
She pursed her lips and her eyes kept dodging to escape.
He said, "Are you still unable to forget him?"
Her: "I didn't."
The voice was soft and unconvincing.
Austin's sneer got heavier, and under his eyes was a cold indifference:
"Cora, don't you forget that he Ayan now even has a child, what do you
think you still love to forget? Are you planning to rekindle your old
relationship with him as a third party to destroy other people's
marriages and families?"
"I didn't!" She retorted emotionally as she said, âI didn't, I didn't think of
it that way, and I didn't mean to, I didn't do anything to Camille, I just
"Cora, I'm sure you didn't, so don't let me down, okay?" Austin's
emotions were slightly under control as he whispered soothingly,
"We're already married, aren't we getting along just fine? So don't
break this peace and let bygones be bygones, huh?"
Cora did not speak.
Austin took that as her default.
His face is slightly light, leaning closer to her, his voice is low: "He no
longer has you in his heart, otherwise he would not have married
someone else and had a child, so forget him completely, as for the past
is in the past, now we are the couple.â
Austin's voice echoed in Coraâs ears over and over again, and she was
even right when he said that they were the couple, that she and Ayan
were over, completely over, and now it was just a partnership.
Cora convinced herself in this way, but as for the heart, I do not know if
itis convinced?
But she hasn't been talking, so Austin took it as a sign that she was
listening, reached up and lifted her chin, then leaned down and kissed
her.
Just as her thin lips were about to fall on hers, she suddenly turned her
head sideways and a warm kiss landed on her cheek.
The man's face immediately turned cold and sullen as Cora said in a
low voice, "Austin, I'm tired and I want to rest, okay?"
Austin did not stop, just gently stroked her cheek voice gentle like
water: "Good, you go rest."
Cora came out of his arms, the whole person can not help but greatly
relieved, and then this just quickly back to the bedroom.
It was a suite, she was in the master bedroom, and he was in the
second bedroom.
No that normal couple will live in separate rooms, but she was
depressed for nearly six months before slowly getting better, Austin did
not want her to be sick again, so this has been indulged.
Austin narrowed his eyes slightly and looked out the window into the
darkness, he looked at the time and casually picked up his phone and
dialed out.
The answer there was quick.
Austin said with a smile and a polite smile, "Master Simpson, good
evening, I'm not disturbing you so late, are 1?"
"No. Is there something wrong with Master Norman?"
Ayan has been living in the office recently, and has just taken a shower
at this moment.
Austin: "Here's the thing, do you have time tomorrow night? I'd like to
invite you and Mrs. Simpson to dinner. We've been in Hance City for
quite a long time, and Master Simpson and Mrs. Simpson have been
taking care of us, so it's my turn to host you, and Mr. and Mrs. Bell will
be there too. Master Simpson and Mrs. Simpson will agree, right?"
"Master Norman you are welcome, not to talk about care, just a
handful, and we are a partnership, you in Hance City naturally by the
Simpson Group and I take care of it is only right, as for dinner ...."
Ayan raised his hand and wrinkled his eyebrows, but finally said, "Let's
skip the dinner, my wife may not be available, the child is still small,
more sticky her, so next time!"
"The child is small understandable, but Mr. and Mrs. Bell side has
promised, just afraid that by then because Master Simpson and Mrs.
Simpson are not available will be lost, since Master Simpson and Mrs.
Simpson do not have time, then we will change the next time! *
After Austin's words, he was already mentally prepared that Ayan would
not say yes.
But before hanging up, Ayan responded lightly: "Master Norman has a
heart, since he has already made an appointment with Mr. and Mrs.
Bell, I will see if I can find the time."
"Okay, then I'll see you tomorrow night at the Ruby Seashore Hotel."
Austin was afraid that Ayan would back out so he agreed immediately.
Ayan wonders why Austin is suddenly buying dinner?
