My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 915

Chapter 915: Settling Scores

"I'll take them. As for the results, you can hold onto them until we arrive."

Those words conveyed the importance of the results. The friend nodded in agreement, putting Ayan's mind at ease.

The whole process was quite swift. From departing the Simpson Group to reaching the test center, and then meeting Ayan's friend, it had taken exactly one hour.

After they left, the two of them returned to the car. Camille remained silent all this while. Ayan asked, "Why so quiet? Do you still doubt me even now?"

Camille pursed her lips and didn't respond. Her expression remained somewhat serious, reflecting a mix of unspoken tension.

Ayan cast her a deep glance, then reached out to hold her hand.

The next moment, she softly spoke, "If they are indeed blood-related siblings, then my grandmother's death must be connected to both of them."

Camille's words were firm, but her heart was conflicted.

She hoped Preston and Eileen were siblings. If that were the case, then Ayan's investigation would be correct, and they could easily uncover Preston's main motive for targeting the Simpson family.

However, a thought flashed through her mind. If they were indeed siblings, did Eileen's involvement in her grandmother's death implicate Preston as well? But what had Preston said to her before?

He had promised not to harm her grandmother, knowing how important she was to Camille. He wouldn't do something like that.

But was that truly the case?

Camille's mind grew increasingly muddled. Once certain thoughts started to surface, they couldn't be stopped from spiraling further.

Sensing her emotional turmoil, Ayan spoke softly, "Whether there's a connection or not, there will eventually be results regarding your grandmother's death. Whoever it is, they'll have to face the consequences."

Camille nodded lightly, but added, "I know. I just don't want to wait any longer. How can my grandmother rest in peace like this? She worked hard to raise me, treated me so well. I haven't even figured out how she passed away. She probably doesn't want anything to do with me anymore, that's why she hasn't appeared in my dreams all this time."

Camille lowered her head, stubbornly refusing to let the tears welling up in her eyes escape. She clenched her lips and her expression revealed deep sorrow.

She missed her grandmother terribly. She hadn't even been able to properly repay her for everything she had done.

Even though others might see her as having done well for herself, Camille felt it was still not enough, no matter how much she did.

This incident cast a shadow over Camille's mood. When she returned to the Simpson Group with Ayan, she didn't go upstairs with him. Instead, she said, "I want to rest for a bit."

Ayan furrowed his brow slightly but didn't press further. He simply said, "I'll drive you back."

"No need, I'll drive myself. You go attend to your business," Camille replied, already heading toward her car. She didn't want Ayan to accompany her; she wanted to spend some time alone.

Ayan didn't insist and merely cautioned her to stay safe. He watched as she drove away before taking out his phone and making a call. After a polite and courteous exchange, he ended the call and took the elevator back to his office.
