My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1286

Chapter 1286: Excitement

Not long after this meal, Ayan had sent a message to Horace before he arrived, so when the conversation reached a deadlock, Horace received a call from Ayan.

Horace was involved in financial investments, and he had many friends and acquaintances in this area. This could be considered Horace's turf, where his family and friends were located.

His name, Mr. Tillery, was also known. They had worked together before, but they were not close friends.

Learning that Horace was calling to discuss matters, Mr. Tillery didn't try to persuade Ayan further. He simply said, "I hope you will consider what we just discussed. Sometimes, letting go and making a different choice can bring about change that leads to greater benefits and advantages."

Of course, Ayan would not agree, but he didn't refuse outright either. His intention was not to offend Mr. Tillery. After all, their cooperation had just ended, and the project had gained momentum with the reputation of the Tillery Group. The Simpson Group was also gradually entering this market, and there would likely be future collaborations.

Opening the foreign market was an important step for the Simpson Group. Ayan wouldn't completely cut off ties with Mr. Tillery. Instead, he would assign professionals to handle future collaborations in this area, minimizing his own contact with Mr. Tillery.

Leaving the restaurant, they once again took Mr. Tillery's secretary's car back to the hotel.

During the journey, Ayan remained silent, burying all his emotions inside. However, his face was gloomy, and his deep black eyes appeared particularly dim.

Upon arriving at the hotel, Ayan didn't wait for Mr. Tillery's secretary or Kian to open the door for him. He opened the back door of the car and got out on his own.

He strode towards the hotel entrance, while Kian raised his head slightly to bid farewell to Mr. Tillery's secretary before quickly catching up with Ayan.

Kian had to almost jog to catch up with Ayan, and then the two of them entered the elevator together.

Kian caught a glimpse of Ayan's frosty expression and took several seconds to compose himself before speaking softly, "Mr. Simpson, what Mr. Tillery did was quite difficult. He knows you are already married, yet he insisted on forcefully pushing his daughter towards you. Does he intend to use this approach to win you over, or does he have some other plan?"

Kian had clearly heard every word of their earlier conversation, but he didn't understand Mr. Tillery's true intentions.

It wasn't suitable for them to discuss this matter earlier, especially with the driver present. Even though they were speaking Mandarin, they had to be cautious about eavesdroppers.

Ayan narrowed his eyes, and his deep gaze was filled with coldness. He replied indifferently, "He wants to tempt me with the opportunity to date his daughter through the Tillery Group. For many people, such an opportunity is rare and hard to come by. After all, becoming a son-in-law of the Tillery Group is a tremendous honor, something that may never happen in a lifetime. He believes that with this method, I will waver and accept his conditions. Then, in the future, the Tillery Group can expand into the domestic market, seize a share of Hance City, or even cover the entire country."

"So, Mr. Tillery is not doing this because he genuinely likes you and wants you to be with his daughter?" Kian asked.

"He explicitly stated that business takes precedence, and everything is for the company's interests. Personal feelings are irrelevant. That's Mr. Tillery's mindset. Otherwise, how could he have achieved such success here?" Ayan responded.

"But Mr. Tillery already has more than enough wealth, and he only has one daughter. He's at an age where he can enjoy the benefits and privileges for how much longer?" Kian was puzzled. After all, Mr. Tillery wasn't young anymore, and accumulating so much wealth with no way to take it with him raised the question of why he continued to pursue so much.

Ayan spoke lightly, saying, "Do you think Mr. Tillery really only has this one daughter?"

Mr. Tillery, of course, had a marriage relationship with his wife, but her family has been declining in recent years. As Tillery Group grew more and more successful, especially after going public and becoming a leading company, Mr. Tillery became bolder. He had many illegitimate children outside, who were an open secret.

Unlike in the country, where such matters are not as tolerated, in foreign countries, they are more accepting of illegitimate children. Once Mr. Tillery faces any situation, those illegitimate children will do everything in their power to deal with Mr. Tillery's wife and daughter.
