The kiss went on for a long time until Camille lost her breath and he
stopped.
His breath was short, his eyes were black and his voice was hoarse.
"You've been so cold to me ever since Sienna got here. Tonight, you
can tell her she can go back to Flento City. I don't want to see you
anymore. "
Camille asked him helplessly, "you use her, and then you kicked her
out?"
"She's always with you."
His voice was deep, with a hint of pride.
Camille pressed his lips slightly. "We're good friends."
"Good friends do everything together?"
"What about you? Haven't you and Sophia been the same lately? I
haven't said anything about you working together every day.â
She made an offhand comparison.
Ayan smiled and said, "jealous?"
"No."
She denied it casually.
He looked at her face. His bony fingers pinched her chin, and his thin
lips framed a smile. âReally no or you don't want to admit it?"
"Do you want me to be jealous?" she asked curiously, meeting his
gaze.
"Are you jealous?"
"Ayan, it's not attractive for a man to make girls jealous. Don't you think
a good man shouldn't make girls jealous?"
She raised her eyebrows with a slight smile in her eyes. Ayan pinched
her chin and smiled. "So, I'm not a good man if I make you jealous?"
âI didn't say that. "
He put on a deeper smile and widened his eyes. "If you donât want to
be jealous,â he said, "keep an eye on me, will you?"
"Keep an eye on him."
Camille was speechless and didn't know what he meant.
In the end, she didn't answer the question. She never wanted to control
Ayan. After all, he always was more controlling in their relationship.
Even after she said she wanted a divorce, she didn't want to ask him to
do anything.
In order to complete the project design as soon as possible, Camille
went to the construction site almost every day. She not only had to
draw the drafts but also had to check each batch of materials with Mr.
Moss.
After that, she had to take the drawings to Simpson Group and show
them to Ayan.
However, for three consecutive days, every time she went to Simpson
Group, she would see Sophia. Sometimes Sophia was still sitting on
the chair behind the desk, and sometimes she was sitting on the sofa
with Ayan. They had endless topics.
At about 5 o âclock in the afternoon, she arrived at Simpson Group
again. She had already been there in the morning. This time, she came
here not for business but to ask Ayan to go to the hospital with her to
see her grandmother.
When Camille arrived at the door of the office, Kian immediately stood
up and said, "Mrs. Armstrong, you are here."
âIs Ayan still busy?"
"Well, Mr. Simpson and Mr. Benson are talking about the project.â
"Is that so? I'll wait here, then."
Kian nodded and suggested that Camille could go sit in the lounge and
wait, but Camille refused.
She waited for nearly half an hour before the door was opened. Ayan
and Sophia came out together. Sophia smiled and said to Ayan, "we
didn't get home drunk that night. You owe me..."
"Camille." Ayan saw her and called softly. Then he came over and
whispered, "have you been here for a long time? Why didn't you come
in?"
Then he looked at Kian. "Why didn't you just bring her in?"
His voice was cold. Camille explained aloud, "I wanted to wait here.
Don't blame Mr. Reid."
Ayan was silent.
Sophia then said, "Camille is here. I just planned the dinner with Ayan.
Would you like to join us?"
Camille was stunned and looked at Ayan unconsciously, saying, "No,
since you have made an appointment, you go ahead."
Ayan looked a little depressed and asked, "would you like to come to
dinner with me?"
"No, why don't you go eat with Sophia? I was just passing by and
thought I would come back with you if you were free. Now that you
have made plans with Sophia, I'l go home by myself."
Camille said with an awkward smile on her cheek, waved goodbye to
Sophia, and walked away.
As soon as she turned around, the smile on her face suddenly
disappeared.
Ayan followed her the next moment. He took her hand and whispered,
"Shall we go downstairs together?"
Camille didn't say anything or took away his hand. The three of them
went down together in the elevator.
Ayan walked her to the car himself and opened the door open for her.
"Ask Sienna to have dinner with you, ok?" he said, "what would you like
to eat? I'll order.â
âNo, leave me alone, Sophia is waiting for you. Hurry up, bye!"
She waved her hand and told the driver to drive. After driving for some
distance, she said to the driver quietly, "Go to the hospital first."
She went to stay with her grandmother, and when she passed the store
selling dim sum, she specially bought her grandmother's favorite
pastries.
When she arrived at the hospital, she chatted with her grandmother for
a long time and then mentioned Ayan especially, saying that he was
really busy these days, so he could not come to visit.
Seeing that it was getting late, Grandmother understood and urged
Camille to go home.
As for dinner, Sienna cooked noodles and they ate in silence.
Sienna had noticed something strange about her and was going to wait
for her to start talking, but she had not yet said anything. Then Sienna
asked, "are you not going to tell me?"
Camille looked at her and didn't have any extra reaction until she
finished the noodles in the bowl. Then she said, "Ayan has a very good
classmate, and they happen to be in a cooperative relationship. Every
time I go to Simpson Group recently, I see them together. I think we
really don't have many common topics."
They didn't have much to talk about. So far, their topics mostly were
related to the baby or grandma and the Simpson family.
Other than that, there was very little conversation between the two of
them.
After hearing this, Sienna said, âthere is no topic, then create a topic.
It's not important. But if his classmate really understands the situation,
she should have kept her distance from Ayan. After all, she knew that
Ayan was married.â
âIt's their business. He can work it out. I don't want to get too involved."
It wasn't Sophia that bothered her initially, it was just her self-doubt
about her communication with Ayan.
As for how did Sophia treat Ayan? That was Sophia's business, not her
concern.
A confident woman was not suspicious.
Camille always held such a philosophy. As a result, Sophia almost
occupied most of Ayan's time because of the project. She always bore
it and told herself that it was just necessary for his work. She kept calm
and tried to avoid going to Simpson Group. So, she could get less
upset if she avoided seeing her.
Two days passed fast, and they got a call from the Simpson's Manson.
The old Simpson asked Camille and Ayan to go back to the Simpson's
Manson for dinner. They were busy recently and didnât go back to visit
for many days.
Camille had to call Ayan to tell her that his grandfather invited them.
She asked, âshall we go together or shall I go first?"
"Of course, together. Will you wait for me at work or have someone
drop you off at Simpson Group? We'll go straight to the Simpson's
Manson when I get off work, ok?"
"OK, I'll meet you there then. Like this, it will be faster."
As soon as Camille finished speaking, Sophia's voice arose, "Ayan, are
you going back to the Simpson's Manson with Camille? May I come
with you?"
