My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1593

Chapter 1593: Persistence

When Kian spoke, his voice was normal, but Ayan and Camille were already lying in bed, and the quiet atmosphere of the night meant that Camille naturally heard Kian's question.

Ayan held his phone without any change in expression. His face remained calm as he asked in a cool tone, "What problem has arisen with the project?"

Ayan's normal questioning tone made Camille not think much of it.

After listening, Kian immediately understood that Ayan was not very convenient at the moment.

Kian lowered his voice, "Mr. Simpson, there's an issue with one of the company's projects. I'd like to discuss it with you in detail."

Ayan responded with a hum, then lifted the covers. He covered the phone with one hand and said to Camille, "I'll go to the study to handle some work matters."

Camille nodded lightly without asking further, as it was common for urgent matters to arise suddenly.

Ayan went directly to the study, while Camille picked up her phone to chat with Sienna, not thinking much about Ayan taking a call.

In the study.

After entering and closing the door, Ayan finally said to Kian, "What's the matter?"

Kian's tone remained somewhat anxious, with a hint of gravity in his voice. He said, "Mr. Simpson, Crystal just called me. She said someone from the Bill family is looking to collaborate with Preston. She hasn't figured out what the collaboration is about yet."

Crystal had only learned about this today because Preston was currently in Flento City. After her competition ended, Crystal returned to Flento City and accidentally discovered her uncle meeting Preston alone. The two had no prior connection, so why were they suddenly meeting?

Crystal didn't dare to think further or delay any longer and immediately contacted Kian.

Since Kian's phone was on silent mode during work hours, he missed several calls from Crystal until half an hour ago when he checked his phone and noticed it was still on silent.

After hearing what Crystal said, Kian was also a bit shocked and immediately contacted Ayan.

Ayan asked, "Did Crystal say this herself? Does she have any evidence?"

Kian replied, "She has a photo. It's indeed Preston because Elijah also confirmed that Preston is not in Hance City. Our information also indicates he's in Flento City now, so there's no mistake."

Initially, they thought Preston's purpose in Flento City was solely related to the Walker family. Now it seemed more complicated.

Kian's expression was a bit tense, "If the Bill family really collaborates with Preston, Mr. Simpson, it would be very disadvantageous for us."

"What did Crystal say?"

"She said she would keep an eye on her uncle and try to find out what connection he has with Preston."

"Recently, try to minimize contact with Crystal and avoid leaving any evidence." Ayan didn't believe the Bill family had the guts for this. If they really wanted to use Preston to approach Camille, it would actually be advantageous for him because given Camille's current attitude towards Preston, Preston wouldn't succeed.

What truly worried Ayan wasn't Preston but Crystal. If Crystal turned against them now, he would be at a loss.

Crystal had appeared around Camille more than once or twice. Camille already had a good impression of her and they had exchanged contact information. If Crystal really wanted to say something privately to Camille, he seemed powerless to stop it.

Ayan told Kian to keep an eye on Crystal and let her handle the Bill family matters.

The old Simpson's issues had already exhausted him today, and now with the Bill family's situation arising, he was naturally tired.

He put down his phone without rushing back to the bedroom, holding a cigarette but not lighting it.

He stayed in the study for a while before returning to the bedroom.
