My Ex-husband Begs Me Back novel Chapter 251

Ayan didn’t reply immediately which made Camille a bit uneasy.

The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't calm down. In the end, she put away the documents and went out.

Camille would pass through Preston's office before she left the office, so Preston could see clearly Camille go out. About half a minute later, he called his secretary and asked, “Does Miss. Armstrong go out?”

“Yes, Miss. Armstrong said she had something to do.”

“Well, I see. Go to your thing.”

He waved his secretary out and closed the door.

The phone in his hand was still on the line. He said in a low voice, “When Ayan put all his thoughts on explaining to Camille, we will take action for the project.”

“Are you sure everything will be OK and Ayan won’t suspect us?” the woman on the other side asked uneasily.

Preston replied, “Of course. You need to keep in touch with him as much as possible in the session and mention something happening a year ago to make him feel close to you for saving his life. Only in this way will Camille be disappointed in him.”

“He’s keeping his distance from me. I’m worried that when the project has an accident, he won’t have time to pay attention to me”

“Eileen, there is no turning back when we get to this point. We must go forward, otherwise our goal will never be achieved.”

Preston told her firmly.

He waited too long for this chance. As long as he took down Ayan through the project this time, it wouldn’t be long before the Simpson family fell down.

Camille set off from the office. Instead of having the driver follow her, she drove the car herself.

She drove to Simpson Group. When she stopped, she didn’t get off immediately but kept silent for a long time in the car.

With a heavy sigh, she pushed the door open and walked through the Simpson Group door.

Ayan had just finished the meeting when Camille arrived at his office. Then Ayan said, “I saw your text just now. I went to the hospital this morning and talked with grandma for a while. She looked pretty well. Dr. Ellis said she has been recovering very well recently. If so, she could be into the surgery after a few days to confirm the indicators”

Camille didn’t respond obviously. She whispered, “Well, Dr. Ellis also mentioned it to me.”

“What’s wrong? Why is there no expression on your face? Are you unhappy for my late reply?”

He reached out and held her gently with a faint smell of cigarette, probably from the lunch with Rex.

But she didn't feel bad. Instead, she had a special feeling.

She leaned into his arms in silence, looking expressionless. She said, “Ayan, do you suspect that the accident a year ago that made Eileen get injured was planned by my grandma?”

Her voice was very slight, almost inaudible if you didn't listen to her carefully.

Ayan was stunned. He released her from his arms and stared at her with a complicated look in his eyes, “Who told you this?”

“There is no need to care about who told me. Answer me.”

They looked at each other while their gazes locked.

Ayan squinted with a cold face. “I can’t give you my answer right now.”

As soon as she pressed the answer button, there was a knock on the door. Kian pushed the door open and came in.

In Camille’s ears was Yessica’s anxious voice, “Miss. Armstrong, there has been a collapse. The situation is a bit terrible. Mr. Walker and I are on our way. Could you come here?”

Camille's face turned pale, and she subconsciously looked at Ayan.

Kian couldn’t care that Camille was still answering the phone and spoke directly, “Mr. Simpson, something wrong happened. There was a landslide at the construction site in five minutes that caused a worker to die on the spot. We can’t make sure the casualty toll until now.”

Ayan looked cold and solemn. “A collapse?”

“It's not clear yet, but we don’t know how the media receive the news that it has been broadcast live. I have contacted Mr. Moss to do everything possible to protect the scene and call the police. At the same time, I have asked the public relations department to send emergency PR. Things may be a little tricky.”

Ayan twisted his eyebrows. He glanced at Camille, who were responding to Yessica’s words, “I’ll be right here.”

She hung up the phone and looked into Ayan’s eyes, “There was a cave-in at the construction site,” she said, “And it’s not clear what caused it.”

The two put away their own personal affairs, and now they have to deal with the accident first.

“Kian and I are going to the site to check and you…”

“I’m the architect on the project. I have to go, otherwise once it is exposed, the right will be irrational, which might cause problems for Simpson Group.”

She replied sensibly and Ayan know she had a point, but he didn’t want her to go for personal reasons.

Camille added, “Time is urgent, are you sure you want to continue to spend it because you don’t want to let me go?”
