My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 793

Chapter 793 Trouble

"You mean..." Kian looked at Ayan uncertainly, but seeing no other response from him, it was clear that he agreed. Kian quickly said, "I know what to do now."

Kian immediately made a phone call in front of Ayan.

After ending the call, he turned back to ask Ayan, "Mr. Simpson, where should we go next?"

"Take me to the club."

He had already messaged Rex when he was downstairs, inviting him for a drink.

He didn't want to show his emotions in front of Camille to avoid worrying her.

But he couldn't keep suppressing his emotions, and he couldn't keep hiding things he couldn't figure out.

The club was their territory, so entering and leaving it was safe and convenient.

They went to their regular private room, and Rex had already arrived before Ayan.

Rex said, "I know you're not in a good mood, so I came early to wait for you. How about that, bro?"

Ayan scoffed and had no intention of responding to his remark.

Ayan walked over and sat down, and Rex poured a drink for him and pushed it in front of him. They raised their glasses and clinked them together. Rex asked casually, "You seem to be in a bad mood. Is it because this matter is difficult to handle?"

Ayan didn't respond immediately. He pursed his lips, his expression calm, his voice unhurried as he said, "Under what circumstances would you recklessly confront someone without hesitation?"

"Are you referring to Preston?" Rex guessed.

Ayan neither denied nor confirmed, but their gazes met. Rex took a sip from his drink and then said, "If it were me, I would only do so when it's a situation where I can't move forward without making the other person pay his price. Such things usually involve either love or family."

"So, Preston did this because you married Camille, and he became jealous and holds hatred towards you?"

A cold glint flashed in Ayan's narrowed eyes, and he said, "I've considered this possibility. Although he had romantic feelings for her, it's not enough for him to go to such lengths and indirectly hurt her if it's solely for her sake. Preston is a selfish person. If he really did it to retaliate against me and the Simpson family because of her, he wouldn't have done things that would indirectly harm her."

He had put himself in Preston's shoes, and he wouldn't have done something like that.

Of course, everyone's approach and thoughts may differ.

Rex said, "If it's not a matter of love and jealousy, then it must be about family. Could it be that the Simpson family took over a business or a major project from the Walker family, and that's why he harbors hatred?"

"He is an adopted son of the Walker family," Ayan said calmly.

Rex's expression turned serious as well, and he said hesitantly, "If that's the case, it doesn't seem necessary for him to make such great sacrifices for the Walker family. Ayan, you need to find out his true identity."

"I know, that's why I meet you, right?" Ayan narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint smile appeared on his face as he met Rex's gaze. His eyes seemed to be saying, "Do you understand what I mean?"

Rex finally caught on and said helplessly, "Ayan, you set me up! Why didn't you just tell me directly?"

"Didn't you say I should come to you if there's something?"

"Then just say it!"

"How can I make you resonate if I say it directly?" Ayan said calmly, "Since you have a direction and are paying attention, then follow your thoughts and investigate Preston's biological family. By the way, Elijah, the secretary of Armstrong Corp, is his uncle. That's the only clue I can provide. The rest is up to you. I think President of Ward Group surely has the ability."

Rex interrupted, "Alright, Ayan, you don't have to say more. I know what you want to do. Okay, I'll personally look into this matter. But after I find out, you have to agree to one request from me."

"Deal!"

"And don't regret it later."

"Of course not."

They raised their glasses again and clinked them. Since they were discussing business matters, they didn't drink much before leaving separately.
