The couple stared at each other for a long time, and naturally it was Austin who eventually lost.
He stepped forward and grabbed Cora, who hadn't said a word since he appeared, and Cora struggled to shake it off the second he touched her: "Don't touch me, don't touch me."
Cora's were extraordinarily emotional, and her eyes even looked at Ayan with a supplicating gaze: "Ayan, save me! Ayan, save me, I don't want to go with him, I don't want to go with him."
Cora's mind went blank. She didn't know why Austin was here.
Did he know she was coming to see Ayan so he came here?
And Austin said Ayan let him see it on purpose, to see what?
Countless questions came to her mind, leaving her no time to digest them.
She stared blankly at the impassive Ayan, whose deep, dark eyes also revealed indifference, and he said in a emotionless voice: "Mrs. Norman, this is a matter between you and your husband, and I can't help you as an outsider."
Cora was a little desperate, crying and calling out to Ayan over and over again to help her: "Ayan, Ayan, help me, I don't want to go with him."
Her words and actions fell into Austin's eyes, which were incomparably harsh, and his hand that clutched her gradually increased in strength.
The thought of her telling Ayan that she didn't want to be with him and hated him for using those calculating tactics to make them get married made Austin, who had always been proud and conceited, even more unbearable.
He dragged Cora almost all the way out of Ayan's office, an event that naturally drew many watching eyes.
Ayan instructed Kian: "Not a word of what happened today is allowed to get out, especially the videos and photos."
"Understood, I'll go and tell everyone." Kian nodded, "Master Simpson, Mr. and Mrs. Bell and Mrs. Bell are all still in the conference room. Do you want to go over there now?"
Ayan said nothing, but picked up a cigarette and lit it. He took a sharp breath, white smoke curled around his handsome face. Nobody could not see the look under his eyes to know what he was thinking about.
It took him a few seconds to say, "Okay. "
A few minutes later, Ayan walked into the conference room, his face unchanged, as if nothing had just happened.
He said without haste, "I just took care of some things, sorry to keep everyone waiting."
Mr. and Mrs. Bell immediately asked, "Ayan, what's going on?"
Ayan smiled slightly and explained: "I will give you an explanation and account of this matter." He then looked at the crowd and continued: "Today's meeting will be postponed and Master Burris will decide on the choice of designer for Armstrong Corp. If Master Burris is not sure about the architectural style of the first phase of this project, he can consult Miss Armstrong and Master Tucker. Simpson Group will also fully cooperate with Master Burris' work."
Horace nodded, "Good, then Manager Armstrong and I will go first."
Horace heard from Ayan's words that he probably wanted to talk to Mr. and Mrs. Bell alone about what had just happened, so Horace offered to leave first. After all, this had nothing to do with him, and he was not a nosy, gossipy man.
Horace spoke up and Dan chimed in, then Camille followed.
But as soon as Camille's words were out of her mouth, Ayan took over, "Miss Armstrong, wait!"
Camille had risen to a halt, and the other three saw this and left the conference room without much ado.
