My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 799

Chapter 799: Insults

Of course, he didn't think Louise had discovered his secret and wanted to silence him this way. After all, he had kept his matters hidden so deeply that not even Sean knew, let alone someone like Louise.

One night is brief, but a lot can happen.

Sean became the target of a full-scale police manhunt. To avoid being caught, he abandoned his car on a road not far from Preston's place and disappeared from the surveillance cameras in a small alley.

Sean was gone, and rumors about him started spreading. Attention shifted, and even the executives of the museum project became the focus of suspicion. Netizens believed Louise's death must have something to do with Sean and continued to hurl insults at him online. Some "well-intentioned" individuals even joined the team helping the police apprehend Sean.

Ayan arrived at the company early, and Kian immediately briefed him on the situation.

Kian said, "Sean is now chased by everyone, Mr. Simpson. I'm worried that if we don't reach out to find him, he won't last long."

"That's his problem. What's it got to do with me?" Ayan snorted. The only reason he involved Sean was to uncover Preston's true intentions. However, Sean was too cunning and had no intention of cooperating. Not only that, he wanted to gain benefits without giving anything in return. Ayan wasn't a fool.

Ayan continued, "If Sean contacts you voluntarily, don't get too involved. If he doesn't give us what we want, ignore him."

"I understand," Kian nodded in agreement. They reached the office door, and Kian quickly opened it for Ayan. After Ayan entered, Kian followed suit and closed the door behind them. He whispered, "Mr. Simpson, we need to go to Dane City for the project in the next few days because this matter has already delayed us for a couple of days."

"Well, you set a date," Ayan said calmly.

Louise's situation had lasted for several days now, and due to its volatility, every time the police collected new evidence, things changed. It had already wasted a significant amount of manpower and resources. But Ayan already had an answer in his mind. This matter was most likely directly related to Preston, with a high probability. As for Austin, he hadn't shown up or made any moves so far, so his involvement was uncertain.

Ayan had shifted all the blame onto Sean. He did so to continue staying in Hance City, and Ayan was certain that dealing with the Simpson family and Simpson Group had to happen in Hance City. As long as he was in Hance City, nothing was too terrifying.

Ayan didn't dwell on it any longer. He busied himself with work. Simpson Group had numerous projects, big and small, and some important ones required his review and signature. Additionally, it was the end of the month, and department heads needed to conduct work summaries.

So he was busy today.

In comparison, Camille had much more leisure time.

The museum project was on hold since the matter hadn't been completely resolved. Jenson informed everyone in the chat group, "No need to worry. The project won't end because of this. It wasn't any of us who made the mistake. Just stay silent and wait. Although none of you have any wrongdoing, I hope we can avoid internal conflicts and disputes in future cooperation and work. If there's anything, let's discuss it openly and not breed trouble behind the scenes."

This message served as a reminder to Amber and others.

The group included Amber and Preston, but neither of them spoke.

They both were implicated in this matter. While the current evidence pointed to Preston's secretary, Sean, as the culprit, Amber knew the truth. So, she was extremely restless, despite having reported to the police with Jenson's company. She still felt anxious and fearful.

After deep consideration during lunchtime, Amber ultimately resigned from her company. She posted a resignation and project withdrawal statement in the group and promptly left the group.

Amber did this to let Preston know that she wouldn't say anything and hoped he would let her go.

Amber didn't stay in Hance City any longer. She left alone in her car.

As for the troublemakers, they didn't continue to harass her, but whether it was temporary or not remained unknown.

Upon seeing the news of Amber's departure, Camille wasn't particularly surprised. Although she didn't know Amber's true thoughts or her main reason for leaving, it was impossible for Amber to continue working at the company after her major dispute with Louise before her death.

At the same time, Camille couldn't help but think, if she had accepted Louise's apology back then, would none of these things have happened?
