My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1478

Chapter 1478: Negotiation

Camille's idea was simple - to discuss the project with Simpson Group. This meant that a professional identity was appropriate, as she wasn't the only one vying for the position; there were many other designers as well.

After Camille asked this question, Ayan fell into a brief silence, seemingly caught off guard by her query.

He smiled faintly, "In what capacity do you wish to collaborate?"

"Of course, in a collaborative capacity. I am the company's chairperson." Even though her company was small, its profits were substantial, comparable to some larger companies. Camille felt no sense of inadequacy as she spoke.

Ayan replied, "Alright, whichever capacity you prefer is acceptable, alright?"

"Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Simpson. I will head over shortly." Camille quickly responded.

She needed to inform Sienna about going to Simpson Group to talk to Ayan about collaboration. For the sake of work, she also brought Yessica along. Although the company was small, having a complete set of resources was necessary.

After a brief preparation, the two set off for Simpson Group.

Upon arrival, Kian was already waiting downstairs. When he saw Camille and Yessica together, he was taken aback.

Were they here to deceive him and Mr. Simpson?

Kian thought to himself, but maintained a serious demeanor as he approached Camille. "Secretary Armstrong," he addressed her before politely nodding at Yessica.

In their momentary eye contact, it was the first time Camille had seen Kian look so serious, and she felt a bit uneasy. But it was for the best, a reminder that this was a professional meeting.

Kian led the two into the elevator. Yessica stood beside Kian, reaching out to gently touch his hand. Even though Kian remained composed, his heart was in turmoil.

The elevator ride was brief, but to Kian, it felt endless.

This lingering sensation seemed to stretch on indefinitely, until the elevator doors finally opened. Camille was the first to step out, and Yessica, after sharing a mischievous glance with Kian, followed suit. Kian, feeling somewhat helpless, looked at Yessica with affection before also exiting the elevator.

This was Yessica's first visit to Simpson Group and her first time seeing Kian there.

She and Kian were at the stage of discussing marriage and had already met each other's parents. They had set a date for the engagement, and their relationship was one of great love and mutual change for the better.

Two minutes later, the three of them arrived at Ayan's office.

Kian spoke officially, "Mr. Simpson, Secretary Armstrong and her secretary have arrived."

Ayan looked up with a faint gaze, lacking warmth or any particular temperature.

He calmly observed Camille and Yessica before rising from his desk. "Please, have a seat."

Camille had seen men act professionally enough not to be surprised by his distant and cold demeanor while working.

But the two of them sitting on the sofa were not as intimate as before – only a sense of businesslike detachment remained.

Yessica standing by also felt the tension. She was grateful to know that Camille and Ayan were married, as working with him otherwise would have been nerve-wracking.

Compared to Yessica's nerves, Camille was much calmer.

She looked at the man before her, softly expressing her intentions.
