My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 855

Chapter 855: Powerful Tactic

Ayan accepted Dan's invitation. After ending the call, he said to Camille, "We're having lunch with Dan and Sophia. They're on their way to the hotel. Let's go down to the restaurant first!"

Camille was a bit surprised. "Dan came back here?"

Ayan grunted and said calmly, "Let's go down first."

The two of them arrived at the restaurant and placed their orders. Soon, Sophia and Dan arrived.

Camille and Ayan sat on one side, while Sophia and Dan sat on the other. They exchanged greetings, and Camille spoke up, asking Dan, "Why didn't you mention that you were coming back? Were you intentionally avoiding treating me to a dinner?"

Dan laughed. "You're really accusing me wrongly. I just returned last night. I contacted Mr. Simpson immediately, didn't I?"

Camille said, "Well, I won't hold it against you then."

Later, Sophia brought up tomorrow's opening ceremony, but Ayan interrupted directly, saying, "This is our private time. Don't discuss about work."

"It's just us here. Why can't we talk about it?" Sophia huffed.

Camille interjected, "Maybe I'm just a bystander, so it wouldn't be appropriate for me to join in." She was just trying to lighten the atmosphere and knew well that Ayan didn't actually feel that way.

Sophia smiled and said, "You should come along tomorrow. The opening ceremony has many activities, and it'll be fun."

"Me? I think I'll pass." After all, she wasn't involved in the project, so it wouldn't be quite suitable for her to attend.

Sophia insisted, "Come on, come on." She looked at Ayan and asked, "Ayan, you'll bring Camille with you, right?"

"Guess!" Ayan glanced at Sophia indifferently, not planning to directly tell her his answer.

Sophia was left speechless, but she couldn't do anything about Ayan.

During the meal, Dan talked about Mr. and Mrs. Bell's project. It had been a year since the project started, and everyone had put a lot of effort into it. Once the project was officially completed and publicly announced, they would gradually put it into use.

The reason Mr. and Mrs. Bell hadn't been seen in Hance City recently was because they were handling publicity related to the project in their home country. They were at the top tier when it came to charity, with abundant financial resources and connections.

Although Mr. and Mrs. Bell had gone back to their home country, they maintained contact with Ayan. However, the project's finalization work was no longer as intense as before, and with no news from Mr. and Mrs. Bell for a long time, Dan naturally had some concerns.

Dan proactively asked Ayan, "Mr. Simpson, everything is all right with Mr. and Mrs. Bell, right?"

He was referring to any unexpected issues with the project, such as many real estate projects that would halt just before completion.

Ayan understood what Dan meant. He raised his gaze to look at Dan and said in a warm and calm voice, "There haven't been anything unexpected. Even if Mr. and Mrs. Bell have any other plans for this project, it won't affect its completion. Simpson Group won't allow any projects to be abandoned."

Once a project starts, neither Simpson Group nor Ayan would allow it to be abandoned due to external factors or the actions of individuals or other companies.

After Camille's words, Dan nodded in reassurance.

The meal lasted for about an hour, mostly in a quiet atmosphere. Even when they talked, it was mostly work-related matters, which didn't interest Ayan much, so he didn't speak much.

After finishing their meal, Dan paid the bill and then suggested, "Miss Camille and Mr. Simpson, if you have time, you can visit Tucker Group. Just let me know in advance, and I'll make arrangements to give you a good impression."

Dan intended to establish a long-term partnership with Ayan. After all, Simpson Group's position in Hance City was unshakable. Besides that, he also wanted to learn from Ayan's style and approach to handling business.

Both Camille and Ayan nodded in agreement with his invitation but didn't specify when they would go.
