My Ex-husband Begs Me Back
Chapter 251: Landslide

Ayan didn’t reply immediately which made Camille a bit uneasy.

The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't calm down. In theend, she put away the documents and went out.

Camille would pass through Preston's office before she left the office,so Preston could see clearly Camille go out. About half a minute later,he called his secretary and asked, “Does Miss. Armstrong go out?”“Yes, Miss. Armstrong said she had something to do.”

“Well, I see. Go to your thing.”

He waved his secretary out and closed the door.

The phone in his hand was still on the line. He said in a low voice,“When Ayan put all his thoughts on explaining to Camille, we will takeaction for the project.”

“Are you sure everything will be OK and Ayan won't suspect us?” thewoman on the other side asked uneasily.

Preston replied, “Of course. You need to keep in touch with him asmuch as possible in the session and mention something happening ayear ago to make him feel close to you for saving his life. Only in thisway will Camille be disappointed in him.”

“He’s keeping his distance from me. I'm worried that when the projecthas an accident, he won't have time to pay attention to me”

“Eileen, there is no turning back when we get to this point. We must goforward, otherwise our goal will never be achieved.”

Preston told her firmly.

He waited too long for this chance. As long as he took down Ayanthrough the project this time, it wouldn't be long before the Simpsonfamily fell down.

Camille set off from the office. Instead of having the driver follow her,she drove the car herself.

She drove to Simpson Group. When she stopped, she didn't get offimmediately but kept silent for a long time in the car.

With a heavy sigh, she pushed the door open and walked through theSimpson Group door.

Ayan had just finished the meeting when Camille arrived at his office.Then Ayan said, “I saw your text just now. I went to the hospital thismorning and talked with grandma for a while. She looked pretty well.Dr. Ellis said she has been recovering very well recently. If so, shecould be into the surgery after a few days to confirm the indicators”Camille didn’t respond obviously. She whispered, “Well, Dr. Ellis alsomentioned it to me.”

“What's wrong? Why is there no expression on your face? Are youunhappy for my late reply?”

He reached out and held her gently with a faint smell of cigarette,probably from the lunch with Rex.

But she didn't feel bad. Instead, she had a special feeling.

She leaned into his arms in silence, looking expressionless. She said,“Ayan, do you suspect that the accident a year ago that made Eileenget injured was planned by my grandma?”

Her voice was very slight, almost inaudible if you didn't listen to hercarefully.

Ayan was stunned. He released her from his arms and stared at herwith a complicated look in his eyes, “Who told you this?"

“There is no need to care about who told me. Answer me.”

They looked at each other while their gazes locked.

Ayan squinted with a cold face. “I can’t give you my answer right now.”“Ayan, can't you give me or don’t want to? Do you think it's because Iwant to marry you that caused your accident with Eileen? Don't forgetthat you and I hadn't decided to get married when you had an accidentwith Eileen.”

Camille couldn't calm down. Her whole heart was thrilled at the thoughtof his doubt to her.

She didn't like Eileen actually, which was only because Eileen hadprovoked her. However, before their marriage, she had no grudgeagainst her, so why would she do that?

What Ayan did made Camille feel very angry, he could favor Eileen andmisunderstand her. But he couldn't misunderstand her grandmabecause of Eileen.

Ayan looked cold. He said indifferently, “This matter is not what youthink and there are some things that I can't explain to you now.According to the results of my investigation, the person who caused theaccident a year ago is Hunter, whose wife is the nanny taking care ofgrandma.”

“How can you be sure it is Hunter?”

"Eileen said it was. She is the client, so I have to replace out.”

Camille sneered, “Well, you believe her and think what she said is true.You replace out that Hunter's wife is the nanny who is taking care of mygrandma, and you conclude that this matter has something to do withher. Do you still think that I actually did? I wanted to marry you so muchthat I ruined your relationship with Eileen, right?”

"I don't think so.”

“But isn't that what you are doing?”

Ayan frowned. He looked cold and said in a low voice, “Camille, I hopeyou can believe me. Many things are not what you see on the surface.Sometimes I would also feel vexed and overwhelmed.”

Camille looked at him coldly, “I believe you, but will you believe me?”They stared at each other, with some complicated looks in their eyes.Without waiting for Ayan's response, Camille's phone rang at themoment.

As soon as she pressed the answer button, there was a knock on thedoor. Kian pushed the door open and came in.

In Camille's ears was Yessica's anxious voice, “Miss. Armstrong, therehas been a collapse. The situation is a bit terrible. Mr. Walker and I areon our way. Could you come here?”

Camille's face turned pale, and she subconsciously looked at Ayan.Kian couldn't care that Camille was still answering the phone andspoke directly, “Mr. Simpson, something wrong happened. There was alandslide at the construction site in five minutes that caused a worker todie on the spot. We can't make sure the casualty toll until now.”

Ayan looked cold and solemn. “A collapse?”

“It's not clear yet, but we don’t know how the media receive the newsthat it has been broadcast live. I have contacted Mr. Moss to doeverything possible to protect the scene and call the police. At thesame time, I have asked the public relations department to sendemergency PR. Things may be a little tricky.”

Ayan twisted his eyebrows. He glanced at Camille, who wereresponding to Yessica's words, “I'll be right here.”

She hung up the phone and looked into Ayan’s eyes, “There was acave-in at the construction site,” she said, “And it's not clear whatcaused it.”

The two put away their own personal affairs, and now they have to dealwith the accident first.

“Kian and I are going to the site to check and you..."

“I'm the architect on the project. I have to go, otherwise once it isexposed, the right will be irrational, which might cause problems forSimpson Group.”

She replied sensibly and Ayan know she had a point, but he didn’t wanther to go for personal reasons.

Camille added, “Time is urgent, are you sure you want to continue tospend it because you don’t want to let me go?”
