"Yes, I have no problem with that."
Ayan responds.
Austin: "I don't have a problem with that either."
Seeing the conversation between the two, Mr. Bell also couldn't help but nod his head: "I can work with both of you, I already see the success of this project."
"You're welcome." Ayan replied in a light voice.
Austin smiled lightly: "Then let's have a good cooperation!"
The three shook hands with each other and then met for lunch together.
After lunch, the Simpson Group had other things to do, so Ayan left first.
Austin and Mr. Bell were staying at a hotel, so they went back together.
Austin returned to his room, and as soon as he entered, he saw Cora sitting on the sofa with a heavy look on her face. The guilt and self-blame under her eyes were very obvious, and with her recent depressed mood, the whole person was floating with the four words of bad mood.
Austin frowned and walked over to sit in the empty seat across from her and asked indifferently, "Cora, what's wrong with you? If it's because of him, then you should quit this project before it starts and go back to Campole first, I don't want to see other problems appear in your already-healed body!"
Cora had severe depression, but it was largely controlled by medication and mood mediation, but recently she has been having insomnia day and night, and her depression seems to be returning to its original form.
Austin had a face full of worry and displeasure.
Cora said, "No, since I'm already involved in this project, I don't want to quit, not to mention that we have already signed a contract with Mr. and Mrs. Bell, it's not the right time to quit."
She said it with certainty, but she was afraid Austin wouldn't believe her, so she reassured her again and again, "I'm fine, I'm fine, I just might have been stressed recently, that's why I'm like this, don't worry, I'll adjust well."
Austin wasn't saying anything, just giving her a meaningful look.
But Cora's eyes were clearly covered with a heavy heart, so how could this be nothing?
Austin narrowed his eyes slightly and contacted his secretary that evening after Cora had gone for a walk with Mrs. Bell.
He ordered indifferently, "Find a way to find out from the Simpson Group whether they have been in contact during the recent period?"
The secretary of who they are referring to understands that it is Cora and Ayan.
The secretary immediately went to check the next, although in the Simpson Group they are at most considered guests, many things simply can not be found out, but the Simpson Group is crowded, some things as long as a little set of words how much there is the wind.
So it didn't take long for Austin to receive the news, and when he learned of it a face that was gloomy and cold to the extreme.
He lit a cigarette to smoke up, a face cold if gloomy very difficult to see.
Cora also returned at this time.
He stood by the window and didn't move, and she didn't get any response even after shouting several times.
Cora thought he was still worried about her, so she took the initiative to go over to him. Only just as she approached, before she could speak, her whole body was suddenly pushed against the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window, and the man's cold gaze stared at her questioningly: "Camille's premature birth had something to do with you, didn't it?"
Cora's eyes were lost in thought, she had been restless since this incident happened, and she could not settle down inside.
But Ayan's side never held her accountable, let alone did anything to her, or even asked her to quit the project, but the uneasiness inside her about Camille and their child grew, and she couldn't convince herself not to keep thinking about it as long as she thought about that scene.
Cora's reaction says it all.
Austin sneered, "So you're admitting it?"
She pursed her lips and her eyes kept dodging to escape.
