My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1280

Chapter 1280: Even Worse

Camille spent some time looking at the art book with Timmy, and then she gave him a bath. She had initially planned to sleep with Timmy, but the nanny mentioned that Timmy would have milk at night, so Camille reluctantly gave up. That's a mother's love-present but not excessive.

The nanny took Timmy away, leaving Camille alone in the bedroom. Throughout the day, the only communication Camille had was a morning message from Ayan, and since then, there had been no further contact between them.

Camille looked at her phone, but there was no activity. She pouted unhappily and muttered silently in her heart, cursing the man. How annoying!

Feeling upset, she grabbed her clothes and headed for a shower. As she intentionally threw her phone on the couch, she even placed two pillows on top of it, using this method to purposefully ignore it.

During her shower, Ayan, who was thousands of miles away, had just finished a meeting.

This multinational project involved not only the Simpson Group but also other major companies from different countries. When everyone gathered together, it naturally involved discussions about economics and the direction of company development.

In this atmosphere, it was like a clash of titans, and one couldn't afford to let their guard down. They had to be completely focused, using their intelligence and wit. Any slight relaxation would be noticed by others, potentially becoming a weakness or a leverage against them.

Although it was almost dawn when they arrived at the hotel, it was already late morning in the foreign country. So, Ayan and Kian had barely slept and had been working intensively.

This mentally demanding work was comparable to physically exhausting tasks.

By the time they finished, it was around 10 a. m. local time in their home country.

The two returned to their hotel room, but there was a dinner party organized by the project host scheduled for later, starting around 11 p. m. local time.

Ayan sat directly on the couch as soon as he entered the room. He leaned against it, exuding a sense of exhaustion throughout his body.

Kian quickly brewed a cup of coffee and placed it on the coffee table in front of Ayan. He softly reminded, "Mr. Simpson, please have a cup of coffee first. We have an event coming up."

If Ayan appeared tired, it could easily mislead people or lead to a breach of etiquette when facing important individuals.

Ayan grunted in response, raising his hand to gently massage his forehead. After a while, he finally opened his eyes and drank the coffee in one gulp.

Meanwhile, Kian was organizing detailed information about the people they were going to meet later, and he went through the important individuals with Ayan as a reminder.

The two of them had been so busy that they hadn't even had dinner yet. They knew they would have to drink later at the event. So, on the way back, Kian ordered a meal, and after reporting the personnel information, the meal was delivered to the room. The two of them quickly ate a little to fill their stomachs.

Only then did Ayan realize that he hadn't had a proper conversation with Camille all day, so he immediately picked up his phone and called Camille. The call connected quickly, but no one answered. Ayan thought Camille must have fallen asleep, so he didn't continue calling and instead sent a message that said, "Are you asleep? Sorry, I've been busy today, and I only have a little time now. We have a reception later, so don't be mad, okay? If you see this message, please reply. Hmm?"

After sending the message, Ayan looked at it again several times, then put down his phone and continued eating after about a minute.

Kian noticed Ayan's actions and, of course, knew that he was sending a message to Camille. A slight smile appeared on his lips, and he couldn't help but speak, "Mr. Simpson, has Mrs. Simpson already gone to bed at this late hour?"

Ayan responded with a grunt and then said lightly, "Have you contacted your girlfriend?"

Kian nodded and said, "Yes, we've been in touch all along. We even had a video call this afternoon while you were in the meeting."
