My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 856

Chapter 856: Boundaries

Preston didn't explain this to Molly. He simply left the hospital with her, and what happened afterward is unknown.

At this moment, Ayan showed Camille the video as well and asked, "What do you think their relationship is?"

Camille furrowed her brows, showing her confusion. She shook her head and replied softly, "I don't know. But can such coincidences really happen in the world?"

She thought they were just working together, unaware of the deeper connection between them.

Ayan put down his phone and had a brief conversation with Camille. He said, "Maybe it's just a coincidence, but I don't think such a coincidence should happen to Preston."

"Because he's after the Simpson family, so you think this kind of coincidence is unlikely?"

"Yeah."

He didn't hide this from Camille.

Camille sensed that too, so she analyzed it seriously. She softly asked, "What do you think their relationship could be? Just based on their interactions, do you think they knew each other from the orphanage or later?"

"I think they knew each other a long time ago."

"If they knew each other for a long time, would Eileen really be so selfless as to risk helping him? What kind of relationship would make that possible?" Camille asked from an observer's perspective because she didn't believe that a person could be so selfless unless there was some involvement, either money or emotions.

But she couldn't see any trace of emotion towards Preston from Eileen, and Preston was the same.

So emotions were ruled out, leaving only money.

Considering Eileen's previous identity as a piano goddess, she wasn't short of money. And later, she became an actress, so she wasn't broke either. Unless Preston offered her an irresistible amount of money.

It must be an astronomical sum.

Setting aside whether Preston could have such an amount of money, they should think about why Eileen would still go to Austin if she had that money.

Could it be that she really likes him?

Knowing that Austin is a married man, although Cora wouldn't pose any threat to her, why would she take such a risk for a relationship with no future?

Camille voiced her doubts to Ayan, who remained silent throughout. Camille raised her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, saying, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Ayan smirked, raised his hand, and held her hand in his palm. His voice was gentle as he said, "I was thinking you're absolutely right. I have thought about these questions, but not as thoroughly as you. Since we've ruled out money and emotions, what else could make Eileen keep the secret for Preston?"

"Yeah, what else? That's what I find so strange," Camille said while playing with Ayan's fingers. His hands were slender and well-proportioned, quite pleasing to the eye. She softly added, "You've been with Eileen for so many years, and you haven't had the slightest guess?"

Although he explained that he kept Eileen around solely because of her connection to Preston, he hadn't figured out the exact nature of that connection. How could he be so certain that Eileen was really helping Preston against the Simpson family?

Of course, Camille didn't ask all these questions out loud. If she did, Ayan would probably get annoyed, wouldn't he?

Just thinking about it made her want to laugh.
