My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1011

Chapter 1011: Furious

Camille's voice was neither too light nor too heavy, but it was clear enough for Ayan to hear.

He didn't mind and walked over, letting the servant set the dim sum on the table. Then, he greeted the old Simpson at the dining table. "Grandpa."

The old Simpson nodded lightly and asked, "Why are you back?"

"I've come back to have dinner with you." He replied with a faint smile, but his deep gaze shifted towards the woman beside him. The look in his eyes was profound, and even though the woman didn't meet his gaze, she could clearly feel his gaze on her.

As a result, she felt somewhat awkward and stiff in her every move.

The old Simpson and Talia, who were engaged in conversation, naturally didn't notice the subtle exchange between the two. The old Simpson casually said, "I don't need your company. You're busy with your work. I have your mother and Cami here."

Ayan sighed helplessly. "Grandpa, I would be very disappointed if you act like this. After all, I've come back. Should I leave now?"

The old Simpson replied, "You can leave."

"Bring my dim sum over. I knew you'd treat me like this, so maybe I shouldn't have bought it for you." Ayan pretended to be annoyed, but he had already picked up his chopsticks to eat.

The old Simpson snorted lightly. "Dr. Ellis told me to eat less sweet food. Are you sure you bought them for me?"

Ayan didn't speak but just gave a faint smile.

Talia, who was nearby, seemed to have figured it out and sighed, "Ah, don't tell me you bought them for me?"

Ayan naturally understood the teasing in this statement, but he didn't respond. Instead, he glanced at his Mom with a hint of pleading in his eyes, as if he was telling her not to say anything more.

This meal became somewhat different with Ayan's presence. Most of the time, Ayan and the old Simpson were engaged in conversation, while Camille, who used to have the most conversations with the old Simpson, became silent.

Talia, of course, noticed this and realized that there must be some minor disagreement between the two. Otherwise, Camille wouldn't have stayed silent, and Ayan wouldn't have made a special trip back to the Simpson's mansion in the middle of the day. Although it wasn't very far from Simpson Group to the Simpson's mansion, Ayan was always busy, so there was no need for him to come back.

Thinking about the current relationship between the two, her face also showed a hint of worry. However, seeing Ayan's changes and his initiative, she relaxed slightly.

After the meal, Talia volunteered, "I'll accompany Timmy upstairs for a while. You can chat with grandpa."

This was just an excuse because the old Simpson couldn't stay up for long after eating. So, Talia was giving Camille and Ayan some private time.

After a while, the old Simpson went back to his room with Kit's company.

Only Camille and Ayan were left in the dining room. Their eyes met for a moment, and Camille immediately withdrew her gaze. She got up and walked away from the table.

Seeing this, Ayan immediately stepped forward, reached out, and grabbed her wrist. His voice was gentle as he asked, "Where are you going?"

Camille instinctively tried to pull her hand away and said in a cold voice, "Let go of me."

Ayan smiled, tightened his grip, and pulled her into his arms. He asked softly, "Are you angry because I didn't contact you all morning?"

Camille didn't say anything, but she let out a faint snort in her heart. Did he know everything and was just pretending not to?

Did he want her to get used to his presence and then suddenly change?

Camille's expression grew even colder as she thought about this. She glared at Ayan and said in a sharp tone, "So what? What are you trying to convey? Do you find it very satisfying?"

Ayan looked at her displeased face, and the smile at the corners of his mouth deepened. His voice became even gentler as he replied, "I didn't want to convey anything at all. But I can't help but feel happy when I see you unhappy. What should I do?"

Camille couldn't tolerate this any longer and didn't want to continue arguing with him. She struggled to make him let go. "Let me go!" Camille said, displeased.

Ayan naturally didn't let go, and he didn't loosen his grip at all. He continued to hold her firmly and said with a soft chuckle, "Don't be upset. I had a meeting this morning, and after it ended, I sent you a message, but you didn't reply. I even called you, but I couldn't get through."

She didn't speak, and she didn't know if she had heard him or not.

He continued, "Don't believe me? Then open your phone and see, hmm?"
