My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 951

Chapter 951: The Bottom Line

She glanced at the unfamiliar number on the screen, its origin traced back to Hance City.

With a slight frown, she picked up her phone, lightly tapped the answer button, and pressed the speakerphone button.

Her voice carried a hint of indifference as she spoke, "Hello?"

A woman's voice followed, "Camille, it's me. I want to meet you."

Camille only blinked slightly, her brow furrowing unconsciously. Her voice sounded aloof as she asked, "Who is this?"

The voice wasn't entirely unfamiliar to her, perhaps even somewhat familiar, causing her expression to stiffen instantly.

The woman on the other end of the line continued, "Can't you recognize my voice, Camille? Or has it been so long that you've forgotten about me?"

Camille felt her heart racing, like it was about to leap out at any moment, making her feel breathless.

Maintaining silence, Camille tried to steady her emotions, took a quiet breath, and then spoke coolly, "So, do you have something to say?"

The woman's tone turned frivolous, "Let's meet and talk. There's something I want to discuss with you."

"I don't think there's anything between us to discuss. If you have something to say, get to the point. Don't waste your time or mine, alright?"

Camille didn't want to meet. There was no real reason to, and she was already planning to call Ayan from her home phone.

It seemed the woman on the other end anticipated this. Just before Camille could pick up the receiver, the woman said, "Camille, if I were you, I would never tell him that I contacted you. Because what I want to talk to you about concerns your relationship with him. So, if you tell him, you'll never know what he's been deceiving you about."

Camille's brows furrowed tightly, her expression growing colder. Her voice turned even icier as she retorted, "You're not me, so you don't get to decide what I should do. If you dare to contact me, you'll have to bear the risk that I might tell him."

The woman's tone grew somewhat agitated, "Camille, I'm doing this for your own good. Do you think I'm still daydreaming? I've made myself clear. I just want to tell you something about your relationship with him. Do you want to be perpetually deceived? Or are you willing to sacrifice your principles for the sake of this man?"

"This is my business, and it's not your concern. So, there's no need for you to say more." Camille didn't give her a chance to continue, promptly ending the call.

She didn't want to hear anything from her, nor did she want to know what the issue was.

She had discussed the misunderstanding with Ayan last night, and she wanted to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. If she was going to listen, she would hear it from Ayan himself. At least that way, she could ensure that other people's words wouldn't influence her.

Camille gripped the phone that had been hung up, her face growing heavy, her complexion deteriorating. She soon received a message from the same number.

The message said, "Camille, what are you running from? Are you really that blinded by love? Are you willing to be deceived for a man? I really look down on you!"

Camille immediately blocked the number, not even giving the message a second glance.

Her expression remained solemn, and her hand clenched around the phone, the grip turning her knuckles white.

She narrowed her eyes, her thoughts weaving a dense web, leaving her with no escape.

Camille maintained that sitting position for quite a while. Even when Ayan messaged her asking if she was awake, she didn't reply. After some time had passed, noticing that it was already lunchtime and she still hadn't responded to his messages, Ayan decided to call the housekeeper directly. He learned from her that Camille was indeed awake. With this information, he called Camille once again.

The phone rang in Camille's hand, but she showed no intention of answering. She just sat there in a daze, her face weighed down by heavy emotions.

Camille's silence persisted, the phone ringing for a long time without any response. Ayan thought she might be upset about last night's incident, so he sent another message: "Is it hurting? I'm sorry, may I come back and let you punish me? Don't ignore me, okay?"

Camille only glanced at the message but still didn't reply. She was lost in thought, pondering whether those words were deliberately misleading or if there was something she genuinely didn't know.

Camille was lost in her thoughts, and she wasn't paying attention to Ayan's messages or calls. She was getting more and more confused by her own thoughts.

Camille didn't want to overthink, but she had been genuinely affected by the woman's words. It was true that the woman's current situation wasn't conducive to revealing any information. But was it worth taking the risk of contacting her, especially if it was only to sow discord between her and Ayan?
