My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 911

Chapter 911: Enduring the Pain

Ayan's cold smirk curved, and his gaze grew increasingly somber. He spoke in a detached tone, uttering a couple of sentences.

Kian nodded immediately upon hearing it. "I understand what you mean. I'll arrange it right away."

Ayan remained silent, waiting for Kian to leave. Then he raised his hand to rub his temple vigorously and picked up his phone to send a message. He also took a screenshot of the jewelry information Kian had sent him and forwarded it.

Soon, he received a response with an OK gesture. He closed his phone and maintained his deep and ancient pond-like gaze.

Inside the car,

Camille was driving toward Simpson Group for the upcoming meeting.

Her phone, placed on the center console, rang at this moment. She glanced at the caller ID and immediately answered, "Mom?"

Talia's joyful voice came through, "Cami, come home for dinner tonight. I had someone bring fresh seafood. Our family hasn't had a meal together this week. How about it?"

Talia's enthusiastic invitation left Camille with no excuse to refuse.

Camille gladly agreed, making Talia very happy. Talia quickly added, "So we'll be waiting for you and Ayan to come back. Don't be too late."

"Sure," Camille replied lightly.

Talia hung up the phone, satisfied, and then sent a message before putting her phone away.

Fletcher beside her looked puzzled. "Aren't you afraid that Cami will be angry and won't trust you as a mother-in-law anymore?"

"Cami won't stop trusting me."

Fletcher shook his head. "You accepted Ayan's favor to help him. Aren't you worried that if Cami finds out, she won't talk to you anymore? Besides, you didn't even ask Ayan what he did to upset Cami before you jumped to conclusions and helped him. Aren't you selling Cami out without fully understanding the situation?"

Fletcher's analysis left her speechless for a moment. She froze, her expression stunned.

She immediately sent a voice message to Ayan, saying, "I don't want your gift anymore. What did you do to make Cami ignore you? You need to figure out a way to make it up to her. Tonight, I just wanted Cami to come back and have dinner with you. I didn't do you any favors. Don't think you can manipulate me."

After sending the voice message, she deleted the chat history, fearing she might retract it. After all, the jewelry Preston sent her was too rare. It was something she had wanted for a long time but never managed to find.

However, to preserve her relationship with Camille, she chose to endure the pain of letting it go.

Seeing her resolute expression, Fletcher couldn't help but chuckle softly, but he still comforted her, "Since it's a gift from Ayan, it's a natural token of his respect. You could have accepted it."

Talia let out a slight hum. "I won't be bribed. Don't try to influence my thoughts."

Talia was firm, and no one could sway her decision.

About an hour later, the project meeting began promptly in Simpson Group's conference room.

Except for Preston, who participated via voice, everyone else was present. Dan had taken an early flight to Hance City today and was now co-managing the Dane City project with Sophia, keeping him quite busy. However, this project was his first one since taking over Rapace Group, making it particularly significant.

In addition, Mr. and Mrs. Bell introduced their promotional partners. Mr. Bell gave a brief introduction, stating that their partner, Mr. Mikkola, was a Hance City native who had been abroad for many years and was now residing overseas. They had been collaborating with him for years.

After Mr. Bell's introduction, he shared his discussions with Mr. Mikkola regarding their plans. He said, "For the Modest Temple Hotel, we plan to initiate a soliciting-style promotion. This way, we can save costs while also finding genuine supporters among companies for our cause."
