Chapter 700 Getting Drunk

Preston didn't wait for Camille to say no, because if he hung up fast

enough Camille wouldn't say no.

But he waited for nearly half an hour and Camille did not appear, he

kept silent and continued to wait, with the intention that he would not

leave until Camille appeared.

Camille still hadn't come until lunchtime, and an hour had passed since

he called her.

He dialed Camille's cell phone again, and Camille didn't answer until it

was about to hang up automatically.

He asked, "Cami, now you won't even meet me? I'm just downstairs

from your office, and you're just coming back, so I don't need to take up

too much of your time.

“Is there something you can't talk about like this?" Camille of course

knows Preston's nature, since he called naturally he would not ask her

if she would like to, I do not know since when, Preston's attitude is too

strong, as long as he decides something, he has to ask others to agree,

which makes Camille feel very tired, she does not like this, so just now

Preston also does not say what the matter is directly let She went to the

trip, which made Camille rebellious thoughts, she did not want to go.

Her attitude showed insistence as well. Preston frowned tightly and

said in a low voice: "As I said, it's just a work thing, so it's not very

convenient. If you don't feel at ease that I have another purpose, then

you can also bring Yessica along, I'll just say a few words, is that

okay?"

"Preston, if you're trying to talk to me about Louise, then there's no

need, because I don't care, it's just irrelevant people, I don't have any

emotions."

Camille thought carefully, what Preston was going to say had to do with

the work, but the work was only the project, the project had just started,

and nothing else had happened except for the Louise incident.

So she also probably guessed what Preston was trying to say?

After her words, Preston's face stiffened to the extreme, and his face

froze in a daze. After nearly half a minute of silence, he then spoke

faintly: "Cami, I apologize for what happened to Louise, I didn't protect

you, so don't get angry with me, okay?"

His voice lowered, his attitude also lowered, in fact, he knew from the

beginning that Louise did not contact Camille, but he did not block, he

wanted Camille to explain unclear, because only when Camille is

powerless to defend he will have the opportunity to step in, otherwise,

with Camille's nature, she will never take the initiative to seek his help.

This is Camille, usually look gentle, but the bones of the toughness is

no one can change.

So many years together, Preston is naturally feel the right one or two

points.

Otherwise, she would not have married Ayan, even if Ayan had no love

for her, but she still insisted on going to him, because she felt that she

loved people or wanted to do things as long as they tried to love to do,

regardless of whether the other party also loved her, or whether the

matter also succeeded, then there will always be no regrets.

At this moment in the face of Preston's apology, Camille is also

expressionless, slightly knitted brow highlights the indifference of her

heart, she said: “I am not angry with you, it is not something to be

angry, and the person who did something wrong is not you, so why

should I be angry with you, what does it have to do with you? *

“It's my fault, I gave Louise the false impression that she was entitled to

target you, Cami, if you forgive me just come down and let's talk about

it face to face, okay? We also haven't eaten for a long time, so let's

consider it a lunch together?"

"No, the company has other things to deal with, I have to be busy, you

also go back to work, this matter is not on my mind, so you should not

think much about it."

Camille still refused, and her attitude was so indifferent that Preston

could not feel the slightest bit of affection.

Preston said, "Cami, you're afraid to even meet me alone now? Is it

because Ayan won't allow you to meet with me?"

“You think too much, Ayan did not ask me to do so, as for what you said

about meeting alone I just think there is no need, because it is not

something important why need to meet alone? Besides, the company is

really something, so I think what can be said over the phone why

bother with a special opinion side?"

Camille's tone was a bit hard, she didn't understand why Preston could

always blame Ayan for anything she didn't want to see or do, thinking it

must be Ayan's intention.

Is she a puppet?

Will only listen to the arrangement and not obey the inner thoughts and

decisions?

Camille is not willing to say more, the heart of the idea also did not

reveal a half, some things said too understand each other only that a

trace of face will be poked.

Her insistence made Preston also helpless, and eventually this side

naturally did not see.

Even though they are close to each other, they are as far apart as a

thousand miles.

Preston came out of the cafe and he drove back to his place alone.

Without his interruptions, Camille also gradually sighed with relief.

The day went by quickly, but everything was still going well.

Ayan was busy in Dane City until 10:00 at night before he finished

socializing and went back to the hotel. He came here mainly to attend

the bidding meeting and wanted to take a piece of land on the east side

of Dane City, and the next project would be started on this piece of

land, so he had to come in person.

The bidding will start tomorrow night, these two days just to prepare for

the start of the bidding, tonight and the bidding will be a few judges

dinner, but there is no bribery things happen, just to familiarize with

each other as well as understand the requirements of this land bid and

so on.

Back in the hotel room, Kian reported the information he had compiled

to Ayan. Kian said, "Mr. Simpson, based on what we've learned in the

past two days, our success rate of taking this land is only fifty-five

percent.”

Ayan slightly narrowed his eyes, his expression unchanged, his voice

low and dull: "After two days here, only fifty-five percent, do you think

this result is what I want?"

He sat on the sofa, holding a cup of strong tea in his hand, the two

days of irregular diet, most of the time in social drinking, at the moment

is a vague pain in the forehead, the expression on his face is also

expressionless to the extreme.

Kian also said with a serious expression: "Mr. Simpson, I followed your

instructions to find out that the company that has as much potential to

bid for this land as we do is a local real estate company in Dane City,

Miss Rapace also mentioned today, the chairman of this company,

names Cote, in Dane City's status It is not to be underestimated.”

Facing such a strong opponent, the only thing to do is to be prepared,

but Ayan's only concern now is that the Simpson Group is working on

several projects at the same time and will probably be short of funds.

He was deep in thought and Kian asked in a low voice, "Mr. Simpson,

do you need to contact Mr. Ward for help?"

Rex had just finished the project and had a sum of money in hand to

pull out, but this was only the last intention. Before that Ayan needed to

think of other ways, the best being to take the land he was most

satisfied with for the least amount of money.

After Ayan thought carefully, he said, "You go to Sophia to find out all

the information about Cote Group, I want to know not what you see on

the surface, but what you don't see.

Kian asked with some confusion, "Mr. Simpson, what do you mean?"

"Check it out first, and we'll do it after we find out.”

"Okay, I'm going to arrange it."

After Kian left the room, Ayan also followed and put down the tea in his

hand.

With a silent sigh, he reached for the phone on the coffee table and

called Camille directly on the video.

When he got through, he didn't speak, just stared unblinkingly at the

woman in the video, she had just taken a shower, people nestled on the

sofa, her fair and clean face without any makeup covering it, looking

extraordinarily spirited and beautiful, she asked, "Why don't you say

anything?"

"What are you doing?" He asked.

Camille said, "Watching TV, did you just finish?"

"So you don't know to reach out to me even when you're watching TV?"

He asked unhappily.

She smiled, “I was afraid you'd be busy and I'd disturb you."

“I'm not busy right now, so you're bothering me!" He said the bitchy

words with a straight face.

The smile on Camille's face deepened as she looked into the man's

deep eyes and subconsciously asked, “Are you drunk?"
