Ayan glanced at her, remaining silent for almost half a minute before his voice calmly sounded, "Let's talk!"
Perhaps Crystal's revelation had sparked Ayan's interest or left him genuinely surprised, as his attitude towards Crystal became much friendlier than before.
Ayan gestured for Crystal to sit down and personally poured her a glass of water.
Seated in the visitor's area, they discussed the main purpose of Crystal's visit. When Crystal voiced her inner doubts, Ayan's face stiffened.
His face rarely showed such stiffness because, regardless of the situation, he was generally a composed person.
Maintaining his silence, Ayan's deep eyes revealed a momentary pause. After a while, his voice resounded in a calm yet steady tone, "Are you sure? How certain are you?"
"Over eighty percent," Crystal carefully uttered her thoughts after thorough consideration. She continued, "If I didn't have such confidence, I wouldn't have come all this way. It would not only waste my time but also make you wary or suspicious, thinking I might have other hidden motives. Therefore, I decided to come after careful consideration."
"Since you are so certain, what about the Bill family? How do they plan to handle this?" Ayan inquired impassively.
"The Bill family is currently only known by my brother and me. Initially, I wasn't sure because I thought there couldn't be such coincidences in the world. However, I believe in fate. If it allowed me to encounter this, then there must be a reason. So, I paid a bit more attention. Although I haven't produced concrete evidence to prove it, I feel that it's true."
"If the Bill family is unaware, how can you be certain that their intentions align with yours?" Ayan asked with indifference.
Crystal didn't hesitate and replied, "The Bill family is harmonious, without any conflicts. There are no internal disputes over money or interests. Otherwise, I wouldn't take such an initiative. Mr. Simpson, if you want to know, it's quite simple; you can easily find out with a little effort. So, there's no need for me to explain further."
Ayan nodded lightly. An air of indifference lingered on his handsome face. He said, "What cooperation do you expect from me in this matter?"
"Mr. Simpson can do much more than I can. So, I want you to get to the bottom of this. If it turns out to be true, have you thought about what to do?" Crystal looked at Ayan calmly, awaiting his response.
The atmosphere grew increasingly solemn.
In a low voice, Ayan said, "If what you say is true, I hope everything remains confidential for the time being without my consent. For me, nothing else matters. The most important thing is her feelings. If she cannot accept or dislikes it, I want things to stay as they are. If she can accept it or has other thoughts, we can proceed according to your plan."
Crystal furrowed her brow, saying, "But this goes against the purpose of me understanding this matter."
"If you can't cooperate, then I don't think we need to collaborate. So, do you want to reconsider?" Ayan looked at Crystal with unwavering confidence, not giving in to her influence.
His strong stance left Crystal completely led by him, and her eyes showed a profound certainty that she would indeed follow his instructions.
The fact proved that Ayan's confidence was enough to make Crystal compromise. She couldn't stand up to Ayan; he was not her opponent.
After a brief silence, Crystal nodded lightly, agreeing. She looked at Ayan and said, "Mr. Simpson, now that I've agreed to your request, when can you give me a result?"
"Before I can clarify this matter, I need to verify some things, so give me half a month." Ayan needed time to think and also planned to test Camille because this was not a trivial matter and not his personal affair. He had to consider many aspects.
