My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1254

Chapter 1254: Trouble

He said, "Alright then, since you've made up your mind, I won't force you. But you have to promise me that no matter what happens at home, you'll contact me immediately. My phone will be on at all times, regardless of the time difference. Got it?"

Camille nodded, "Okay, I understand."

Camille felt a slight sense of relief, but suddenly thought of a question, so she quickly spoke up, "Is your trip abroad related to the Simpson Group? Will it be made public?"

Ayan raised an eyebrow and calmly replied, "There's no need to deliberately disclose or conceal it. It's just a regular trip, nothing important."

However, Camille had concerns in her heart, so she quickly added, "I think it's better to keep it a secret. If you go abroad, I'm worried that those people will shift their attention to the Simpson family. If they find out about Grandpa being hospitalized, it wouldn't be good to disturb him."

Camille's words surprised Ayan a little, as he didn't expect her to suddenly think so much. But what she said made sense, so he didn't have any points to question.

In the end, he naturally agreed to Camille's suggestion. They continued to talk about Ayan's trip abroad for a while, and Ayan asked Camille what gifts she wanted, instructing her to make a list and send it to Kian, so he could bring them back from overseas.

In truth, Camille didn't have strong desires for these things. Major luxury stores in Hance City would send items to her doorstep every quarter, whether it was bags, clothes, or jewelry. However, Camille rarely wore them and only kept the ones she particularly liked as part of her collection. Because it wasn't about having more things, the most important thing was that she genuinely liked them.

But since Ayan asked, she didn't want to disappoint him, so she nodded in agreement.

That night, they had a long conversation, and talking with Ayan helped Camille forget about the events of the afternoon. Contrary to her expectations, she didn't have trouble falling asleep.

Perhaps it was because Ayan was by her side.

The next day followed the same routine as before. They both went to work and busied themselves throughout the day. On this day, Preston didn't contact Camille, as if everything that happened yesterday was just a dream.

Camille was absent-minded for most of the day, unable to fully focus on her work due to her thoughts. Sienna noticed, but she didn't bring it up, nor did she ask about it.

And so it continued until the end of the workday. Ayan came as promised to pick her up for dinner. Tonight, Mario and Alicia were absent, so there were fewer people.

Mario's secretary's response was that Mario was busy with something, so he wouldn't be attending this dinner. As for any results, they could be notified by phone. Mario's secretary didn't directly mention that Mario had returned to Flento City, as if they didn't want anyone to know about his whereabouts. Since that was the case, no one would reveal the truth.

Before all the dishes were served, Ayan already said to Mr. Nores and Horace, "The project will resume as usual, but I hope that the previous incident won't happen again."

Mr. Nores quickly nodded in agreement, then sincerely apologized to Camille. After all, the one who made the mistake was not Mr. Nores himself. Camille didn't hold it against him and just felt that it wasn't easy for Mr. Nores, at his age, to apologize for his daughter's actions. However, at the same time, she envied Alicia because she had a father who would do such things for her, something Camille had never experienced.

The rest of the dinner went relatively smoothly. During this time, of course, Ayan had Kian contact Mario's secretary again and repeated what Ayan had just said, asking the secretary to relay it truthfully to Mario.
