Mrs. Bell said it with a gentle, so Preston was naturally slightly pursed his lips and nodded: "Of course, it is also true that I originally wanted to invite Mr. Simpson, but Mr. Simpson's schedule is relatively busy, so I can't bother him with it."
Mrs. Bell hurriedly looked at Camille and said, "Look, Mr. Baxter has said so, maybe you can call and ask him?"
Camille naturally wouldn't make this call, just gently declined: "He has a dinner party in the evening, so a call at this time might bother him. Let's just start our dinner!"
Mr. Bell understood: "Cami is right, let's eat, and we'll get together when Ayan is free. We're all on the same project anyway. It's easy to get together some time."
After Mr. Bell's words, everyone nodded.
After a short hiccup, the food was served.
While everyone was eating, Preston also took the initiative to get the conversation going.
He first thanked Camille before raising his glass to Mr. Bell. Camille and Mrs. Bell were eating and chatting in a very cordial atmosphere.
Such a scene made Preston darken. A reverie rose in his mind.
If he was the one standing next to Camille today, was it possible that they would be attending this meal today as husband and wife?
The more he thought about it, the thicker and deeper of the emotion under his eyes, and the more ruthless his heart became.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, then poured another glass of wine and turned to Camille. "Camille, I want to toast you. Thank you for taking care of me. If I have ever done anything wrong, I hope you will be kind enough with your tolerance."
After saying that, he already raised his glass and drank first.
Mr. Bell smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Baxter is being too polite. Camille is not a petty person, and you are a member of this project. It is all right for us to take care of you."
"That said, it's a courtesy that Mr. Bell and Mrs. Simpson have extended to me, but I cannot take it for granted, can I?" Preston smiled gently and stared at Camille.
Camille didn't feel anything strange about the toast, so she also picked up the glass straight to the mouth, ready to drink.
At this time, the manager who was there at service suddenly came forward: "Mrs. Simpson, drink juice, please. You have never drunk alcohol when you usually come over, and before Mr. Simpson also instructed that your stomach is weak, so juice is better for you!"
Camille slightly froze, the gloom hovering her heart throughout the afternoon also vanished. She felt very warm. Although her face had not changed much, the smile overflowing under her eyes was so obvious. She reached for the manager's juice and whispered, "Thank you!"
The manager politely replied: "This is all I should do."
Camille sipped the juice in front of the other three people, and then put down the glass of juice in hand. Mrs. Bell's voice also slowly sounded: "Look how much Ayan spoiled his wife. Everywhere he arranged people to take care of you, tsk. Timmy is growing up, but they're still in love. What an example for young couples. "
Mrs. Bell's face was full of smiles as she stared at Camille. The look in her eyes was exactly like seeing her favorite junior find true love.
Mr. Bell also smiled. Although the words sounded like laughing at Ayan, but actually they were flattering on Ayan and Camille's good relationship.
Camille was embarrassed and lowered down her head. Her afterglow inadvertently swept across Preston. His face had always been been wearing a smile, but that smile made people feel uncomfortable in the heart. This was a kind of smile with a cold mockery.
