My Ex-husband Begs Me Back -
Chapter 226: Bring them Together
Camille wasn't so curious. After all, Preston was already an adult.Especially from her point of view, she sincerely hoped that he couldencounter a girl who was right for him and who he loved.
It's just Jessika’s gossipy and cautious look as if she found somethingstrange that made her a bit curious.
She stared at Jessica and asked sightly, “Just tell me, who is it? Whomakes you so gossipy?”
Jessika stuck out her tongue, looking a little awkward and whisperedback, “The girl that Mr. Walker is dating with is the collaborator I metlast time in the coffee shop.”
“Have you met her?”
“Yeah, but I didn’t see her face clearly. She looked beautiful. She waswell groomed and in good shape. Well, Mr. Walker is handsome. Thegirl who is able to date him must be pretty.”
Camille wasn't too keen on that. She didn’t know who it was, so therewas no point in saying more.
However, she added, “How can you be sure that the girl on Molly'sphone is the one you have seen?”
“Molly only took a picture of her back.”
Camille frowned sightly and didn’t ask more.
But if Molly had only taken a photo of her back, Preston wouldn't havebeen so excited, right?
His reaction and behavior indicated clearly that he didn’t want thepeople in company to see the photo. Maybe he wanted to protect thegirl he dated.
Camille thought about that, with an inexplicable sense of reliefoccurring at the bottom of her heart.
Because Preston found the girl he wanted to protect, which meant thatthey were just friends.
And she won't be misunderstood by Ayan anymore.
On thinking of Ayan, her face turned cold unconsciously.
Ayan and Sophia didn't stay too long and returned to the company afterCamille and Talia left.
Sophia wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought, butfinally she couldn't resist asking, “Ayan, didn’t you and Camille getmarried because grandpa bring you together?”
He glanced at Sophia and whispered, “Yeah.”
“Don’t you have nothing to talk about together?”
"Just so-so.”
His response was always tepid without any more emotions.
Sophia narrowed her eyes and continued, “I never thought that youwould marry the girl for the family arrangement and even have a baby.”“Camille is nice, so nothing weird.”
He married Camille for a year. She has always been gentle andsensible. There was no need for him to worry about the things in thefamily. In addition, she knew his habits very well. As time goes, he hasgot used to such life. However, she seemed to reveal her true naturecompletely since she moved out.
It made her whole person more alive and dynamic.
Such a woman fascinated him instinctively. When he clearly realizedthat he was attracted by her thoroughly, he actually thought that it wasinevitable.
After all, she was excellent.
Only her charming face alone was enough to make men fascinated forher.
Therefore, when he responded to Sophia, a clear trace of smilecrushed on his face. The curve in the corner of his lips was distinctespecially.
Sophia was startled sightly and looked at him in disbelief.
After a few seconds, Sophia asked, “Ayan, are you completely out oflove with Eileen? I remembered you loved her very much in the past.Though we were different classes, you never let her feel wronged. Ayear ago, the fact that she was injured for you and became a vegetativeperson caused a sensation in Hance City. Can you empty her from yourheart completely?”
Ayan'’s was visibly unhappy due to her words or maybe the name“Eileen”.
There was a faint solemnity on his handsome face and a darkheaviness in his deep eyes.
He narrowed his eyes and said in a soft voice, “Sophia, do you all thinkI love Eileen?”
Probably only Ayan knew best whom he mentioned besides Sophia.Sophia stunned for a second and replied, “Isn't that so?"
Ayan frowned, with his deep eyes turning cold. He said lukewarmly, “Itseems that a misunderstanding can also go deep into people's hearts.”“Ayan, I don't know what you mean. Don't you...?"
“Sometimes, what you see with your own eyes is not necessarily true.”Sophia was silent.
Didn't he love Eileen?
Sophia has always been clever, but now she’s a little sluggish.Because she couldn't believe it.
If not, then for what?
As far as she knew, Eileen was working for Simpson Group'sentertainment company currently. Wasn't that why Ayan wanted toprotect her.
However, it seemed that she was wrong judging from his indifferentface and the dull look in his eyes.
Sophia pressed her lips and became silent.
Back at Simpson Group, Ayan asked Kian to accompany Sophia to thevenue of the architecture competition to see the set-up. Then he pickedup his phone and called Camille.
After getting through, he said in a low voice, “What are you doing?”“I'm working.”
A concise answer, without a single extra word.
Ayan frowned slightly, which set off his finely carved features. His eyeswere narrowed, asking in a low voice, “Are you mad at me?”
“Why?”
"Because I didn't tell you the truth?”
“You're reading into it.”
Camille wouldn't tell him the truth certainly, but her response was soindifferent, with hardly any emotions.
After a long time, Ayan whispered, “I didn’t want to conceal the truth foryou. Sophia came to Hance City only for our cooperation, that's why Iresponded you like that.”
“Well, I see. What else? If not, I have to get on with my work. The gameis only a few days away, so I'm a little busy.”
“Camille, do you really want to work on your design or don’t you want totalk with me?”
Ayan asked softly.
Camille replied, “Nope.”
“No?”
“Ayan, you're annoying.”
Camille was a bit upset.
She was annoyed at his constant question.
As for this matter, was Ayan wrong? Not really. At least, no to thatextent. She just felt a little uncomfortable about his dishonesty.
Camille cut off the call and got to her work.
She spent the afternoon working on the drawing with Yessica and someelse in the office until after work.
The competition would start officially in two days.
It has been a long time since she competed in such a big competition,so she still felt a little anxious.
After sorting out the computer and artworks, she picked up her bag andleft the office.
She took the elevator downstairs and had just left the building to walkacross the parking lot when she saw the black Mercedes parking on theside of the road.
She paused and hesitated for two seconds, then walked over.
When she reached the car, Ayan opened the door of the co-pilot to lether in. Camille didn’t get on, but asked, “Why are you here?"
“To pick you up from work.”
“Actually, there is no need for you to pick me up. You've already hired adriver for me. Besides, it's still early. I can drive back myself.”
Ayan squinted and stared at her with his deep and dark eyes, while afaint smell of tobacco was wafting from the car. Then he said, “I'd liketo.”
