Ayan's frown tightened and he said, "Camille, can't you be a little more
generous? Do you have to settle for these little things?"
âI'm counting, Ayan, why didn't you say Miss Khan was giving me a
hard time when she turned it upside down?"
Camille questioned in a shallow voice.
Although she knows he will stand by Eileen unconditionally, Camille's
heart still can't accept it, and it's still hard.
She pursed her lips and kept telling herself that what she couldn't ask
for, she shouldn't ask for.
The guests also whispered that Ayan was defending Eileen because of
her years of love and affection for her.
The atmosphere was quiet for a while.
The old Simpson got up with his cane and a cold look in his eyes:
"Ayan , you'll protect this woman, you'll regret it."
With that, he took Camille and left angrily to his room.
the old Simpson whispered to reassure Camille: "Cami, it's that jerk
who's wronged you, and Grandpa knows you've been wronged."
"Grandpa, I'm fine, but I'm the one who's bad because I upset your
birthday."
"Nonsense, I'm most happy today, and it's all because of you." the old
Simpson contained a smile, then taking an antique jewelry box from a
drawer, he said, "Cami, you keep this."
"Grandpa, what is this?"
Camille asked in disbelief.
âDon't ask what it is, just keep it."
The old Simpson insisted, and Camille couldn't refuse.
Only the box had a lock, and the old Simpson did not give the key, and
she could not open it, but the old Simpson let her do what she wanted
to do.
Camille accompanied the old Simpson chatting for a while after the old
Simpson said, "Don't just stay with me as an old man, you go out too,
go out and have a good time with them young people.â
Camille nodded, actually she was not interested in the prom, just did
not want the old Simpson worry.
After leaving the room, Camille didn't go back to the ballroom, she put
the box her grandfather gave her in the car and walked down the road
to the pool garden to sit and watch the stars in the breeze.
The image of the banquet hall just came to mind.
The man was so righteous in defending Eileen, even with so many
guests in he did not have any hesitation.
He must be with Eileen at the moment, right?
As for her, she probably left it behind long ago.
She smiled to herself and planned to go back to Hanyama Manson
after talking to Fletcher Talia.
But she just got up before she could take a step, she saw Eileen
walking aggressively in front of her.
It's really shady.
Eileen walked up to her and angrily questioned, "Camille, what do you
mean? Are you proud of seeing me being laughed at by so many
people? Do you think you've won? I'm telling you, Ayan only has me in
his heart, you are nothing, even if you get the Simpsonsâ love, so what?
He will never be attracted to you in his life, I advise you to divorce him,
or I will not let you go."
"Eileen, you're blaming me for what you did to yourself?" Camille
questioned coldly, "Who are you to order me to divorce Ayan? This is
our business, not yours?"
Eileen is good at acting, playing the gentle white rabbit in front of Ayan,
but in front of her is a big bad wolf.
But she's not going to spoil Eileen.
Eileen was furious and said, "So you're saying you won't listen,
Camille, and I have a way to make you say yes."
"Heh, who do you think you are? Why should I listen?"
Camille got up and prepared to leave, she didn't want to say one more
word to Eileen.
She walked past Eileen and then along the side of the pool ready to
walk back into the house, but suddenly a force pushed her directly
behind her and she was unprepared and just fell straight into the pool.
The weather in October is already late autumn, and the water in the
pool is cool and cold.
She felt herself shivering with cold.
She struggled to get up, but the water level was too deep, she couldn't
swim, and the person kept sinking.
She wanted to open her mouth to call for help, but opened her mouth
cold water instantly rushed into her mouth.
Her mind went blank and her vision became hazy. Vaguely, she
seemed to see a tall figure running towards her.
It was half an hour before Camille opened her eyes again.
She looked at the white ceiling with slightly stunned eyes, and in her
ear was a gentle whisper, "Cami, it's mommy, do you feel
uncomfortable there?"
She then saw that the person next to her was Talia, shook her head
gently then frowned instantly remembering something, then asked with
some excitement, "Mom, what happened to me?"
With that, the person also sat up with it.
Talia quickly held her down and made her lie down, then said: "You fell
into the pool, fortunately Ayan arrived in time to save you, Dr. Ellis also
came to see you, nothing is wrong, do not worry."
Camille was relieved that Talia didn't know the reason for her health,
but since she didn't mention any bad news, it was good news.
Camille looked at the time, it was after nine o'clock, she looked to Talia
and asked, "Mom, you go ahead, I'll be fine on my own."
âI'm not busy, wouldn't you rather have me with you?"
"Of course not.â Camille smiled slightly, then suddenly asked, "Mom,
you said that Ayan rescued me from the pool?â
"Yeah, he was worried sick, and Dr. Ellis checked and said you were
fine before he and his dad went to greet the guests.â
Talia's fears of a bad Camille naturally understood that they must be
exaggerated.
But she didn't poke at it, she just nodded.
At this point, the bedroom door pushes open from the outside and Ayan
enters with long, slender strides.
Seeing that Camille was awake, he asked with a gentle face, "How do
you feel? Are you uncomfortable anywhere?"
"It's pretty good."
Ayan said again: "It's good that you're okay, but don't be so stubborn
again. Although you and Eileen had some misunderstandings, but she
was afraid that you fell into the pool and wanted to pull you, you
shouldn't have refused, can't you even let your own safety be ignored
for the sake of a moment?
His tone was not too much blame or anger, just a very serious
reasoning with Camille.
But Camille looked at him with a pale face, and her eyes seemed to be
overflowing with tears, and the atmosphere was silent.
Talia hurriedly said, "Ayan , what to say to Cami properly, after all, it is
only an accident, no one wants it to happen.â
"Cami, don't take his word for it, he's just talking nonsense."
"Mom." Ayan looked helpless.
Camille dropped her head as tears were about to spill from her eyes
and she smiled coldly, "Is that what Eileen told you?"
She looked up at the man in front of her again after getting her
emotions under control, and he said, "She didn't tell you how I fell into
the pool?"
Ayan frowned as he said, "Didn't you fall down after arguing with
Eileen? She tried to drag you up and you threw her off."
"Ayan , so you believe what Eileen said?"
Ayan was silent.
Why didn't he say anything?
Camille inwardly hissed, "Ayan, will you answer me?"
