My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1081

Chapter 1081: Fever

Jordan was handsome and gentle. It was difficult for anyone to have a negative impression of him after the conversation.

Sienna, even in this situation, couldn't help but say, "I guess I'm benefiting from Cami. Thank you, Mr. Bailey, for helping me."

Jordan didn't know Sienna, but he still smiled gently and said, "You're welcome. Both of you are wet from head to toe. It's not a good idea to catch a cold. How about heading back for now?"

Camille nodded and agreed, "Yes, you're right. We should go now."

Jordan didn't insist on escorting Camille and Sienna, especially since they had their own bodyguards. He simply nodded and bid them farewell. Then, he stood in place and watched them leave under the protection of their bodyguards.

As for the two women who had attacked them earlier, they were handed over to the police for handling.

Afterward, Jordan, as a witness, cooperated with the police in making a statement. Given his status, the police had full trust in his testimony. Additionally, there were security cameras in the vicinity, and since the two women had intentionally harmed others, the police were planning to hold them accountable.

On the other side, Camille had already gotten into the car. The bodyguard was driving and was careful not to take deep breaths. He even avoided looking in the rearview mirror.

The atmosphere inside the car was extremely quiet. Camille and Sienna remained silent. The bodyguard hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Mrs. Simpson, today's incident was due to our negligence. If it weren't for us, you and Mrs. Ward wouldn't have ended up like this."

Camille finally responded, looking ahead and saying in a calm tone, "It's not your fault. It was an accident."

After all, nobody wanted an accident to happen.

But the bodyguard continued to apologize and express various forms of regret and self-reflection. Camille's ears were starting to get calloused from listening to it. Sienna quickly gave Camille a meaningful look, silently urging her to put a stop to it.

Camille then said, "I already said it's not your fault. Don't worry. I won't tell Ayan, and he won't dock your pay. So, there's no need for you to feel pressured."

"Mrs. Simpson, that's not what we mean. We're just reflecting on our failure to protect you and the harm you suffered because of our negligence. It's our job, and we should be punished for it."

The bodyguard responded earnestly, showing no intention of evading responsibility.

Camille felt a bit helpless because no matter what she said, they maintained this attitude. In the end, she fell silent.

The bodyguards safely brought the two of them back to Franklin Bay. Camille and Sienna returned to Camille and Ayan's home. Sienna didn't want to trouble Ayan by returning in her current state, and she didn't want to explain to him what had happened. So, she decided to change into fresh clothes at Camille's place.

Camille headed to the master bathroom to take a shower, while Sienna used the guest bedroom. The house's housekeeper had prepared ginger soup for them and expressed her concerns, saying, "What happened? It didn't rain today, did it? How did you both get soaked?"

Sienna couldn't help but joke, "It's raining at the office!"

The housekeeper believed her, muttering about how unpredictable the weather in Hance City was.

Camille just smiled without explaining. The housekeeper reminded them to drink the ginger soup quickly to avoid catching a cold.

Camille hadn't even had a sip when Ayan called. The bodyguards had already confessed their mistakes to Ayan, so Camille put him on speakerphone, and his worried voice immediately came through, "Why didn't you call me about something so serious?"

Camille's tone was relatively calm. She said, "I'm fine. Let's just consider it as being caught in a little rain, okay?"

"This time it's rain, but what about next time? Have you thought about the consequences if it's something else?" Ayan's voice held a hint of anger. He was especially upset that Camille didn't seem to fear the situation at all and even found it inconsequential. He continued, "It's all my fault. I didn't arrange for proper security. I'm sorry you were scared."

Camille was taken aback by Ayan's self-blame and guilt. His words made her expression turn more serious. Since she had him on speakerphone, Sienna, who was beside her, naturally heard it as well. Their eyes met, and Camille picked up her phone and turned off the speaker.
