Chapter 1186: Injury
Eileen observed the changes in Ayan's expression, and every word she spoke was cautious. She
looked at Ayan and said, "Preston told me that he and Camille have made an agreement. When the
time comes, he will take Camille and leave Hance City."
As Eileen spoke, Ayan's face became even more unpleasant.
The two of them locked eyes in a distant and indifferent gaze. The man's eyes were filled with a chilly
coldness, but he didn't immediately explode.
Eileen noticed this and continued, "Although I have a partnership with Preston, I still lean towards your
side, Ayan. I know you trust Camille and believe she would never betray you. But sometimes, it's better
to be a little cautious than to realize the truth after being deceived, right?"
Eileen finished speaking, but her gaze remained fixed on Ayan, her eyes showing a hint of uneasiness.
Ayan remained silent for a long time, during which Eileen's expression became increasingly
unpleasant. She felt lost, tightly pursing her lips, constantly speculating about what Ayan might be
thinking.
After a while, Ayan finally spoke indifferently, saying, "So, the reason you came all the way here to tell
me is to make me be cautious of Camille and not let her deceive me?"
"I didn't mean that. I'm just worried that Preston might deceive Camille, and in the end, Camille will fallnovelbin
for it."
"Is that so?"
"Of course, Ayan, I have no reason to deceive you. The only reason I wanted to talk to you face-to-face
is that I didn't want anyone else besides you to know. Preston is feeling a bit desperate now, and I'm
worried he might harm me. So, I have to look out for myself. Ayan, everything I've said is true. Can you
trust me?"
Eileen's tone was sincere, almost as if she was about to raise her hand and swear in front of Ayan.
However, her eyes constantly revealed a hint of probing, making people feel a bit strange and
uncomfortable.
Ayan didn't delve into whether her words were true or false. He simply said indifferently, "I've
remembered what you said. Is there anything else?"
Eileen shook her head, indicating that there was nothing else to say.
He said, "Since there's nothing else, I'll have Kian arrange a car to take you back to the set."
After Ayan finished speaking, he prepared to leave.
Eileen immediately stopped him, saying, "Ayan, it's been a long time since we've seen each other. I
came all the way here today. Can you treat me to a meal?"
She cautiously probed, her eyes showing a hint of uneasiness, as if she wanted to hide something.
Ayan naturally noticed this and his expression turned less pleasant. He asked indifferently, "You want
me to treat you to a meal?"
Eileen nodded in agreement, and Ayan smiled. "Are you in such dire need of this meal right now?"
Eileen's face stiffened slightly, feeling a bit unsure of how to respond to Ayan's words.
But just as she was unsure of how to answer, Ayan suddenly said, "It's still early now. Stay here for a
while. I'll have Kian make arrangements and send you back to the set after dinner."
With Ayan's words, Eileen immediately nodded, wearing a smile on her face. "Alright, you go ahead
and take care of things. I'll wait for you here."
She was very happy, her face filled with a smile and a sense of relief.
What was the source of this relief?
Ayan, on the other hand, sensed that she seemed very worried about his refusal. It was just a meal,
why did she care so much?
A question lingered in his mind. When he returned to his office, he calmly said to Kian, "Keep an eye on
her and see what she's up to. Also, reserve a table for me at Darkmoor. She wants to have a meal
before leaving."
Kian nodded lightly. "Yes, Mr. Simpson. I'll make the arrangements."
Ayan remained silent, but his expression seemed even more grave.
As Kian was about to leave the office, Ayan's voice sounded again, asking, "What was her purpose in
coming all the way here? Was it to badmouth Camille to me or to have me treat her to a meal?"
If it was only the former, it seemed to have no effect, right?
After all, she knew very well about Camille's place in his heart, so no matter what she said to sow
discord, it wouldn't achieve much or truly drive a wedge between them. So, what was the point?
And if it was the latter, was it just about having a meal?
Kian was also taken aback by Ayan's question, turning to look at him with surprise. "Mr. Simpson, what
are you suspecting?"
"Keep a close eye on Eileen during dinner tonight. No matter what happens, you must stay in the
restaurant and be vigilant."
Ayan's face was very serious. In reality, he was just speculating in his mind, but the truth could only be
verified in the evening.
Afterward, Ayan didn't reveal any hint of abnormality. He continued working, while Eileen was naturally
being watched by his assistant.
So, Eileen spent the whole afternoon in the meeting room. She didn't find it boring and spent the
afternoon playing with her phone alone.
At the same time in the afternoon, Camille received a phone call from Preston.
Preston's calls have been quite frequent these past few days. They just spoke a couple of days ago,
and now he's calling again.
Camille instinctively hung up, but Sienna snatched the phone from her hand and smiled faintly, saying,
"This person is really boring, contacting you every other day. It seems like he has nothing better to do.
Well, I have some free time too, so why not chat with him!"
After saying that, Sienna pressed the answer button.
She didn't rush to speak and gestured for me to be quiet. Then she waited for Preston's voice to come
through. He asked, "Cami, do you have time? Let's have dinner together tonight."
Sienna raised an eyebrow, then casually said, "Sorry, I'm not Cami. Cami is busy right now."
Preston, of course, recognized Sienna's voice. He didn't show the usual indifference he had towards
Sienna and instead spoke warmly, "Oh, it's Sienna. Long time no see."
Sienna made a disdainful expression, her expression not looking too good, and her tone was extremely
cold, "Are you looking for Cami? Cami is busy right now. Maybe you should call her later."
Preston wasn't in a hurry and simply said, "Cami asked me to take care of something for her. I've
almost finished, so I wanted to have dinner with her and discuss the results."
Sienna glanced at Camille instinctively and saw Camille's brows slightly furrowed. Sienna responded
with indifference, "Oh, but can't you discuss it over the phone? How about you call her later?"
"No need. Just tell her for me. Let Cami know that I've made a reservation at a restaurant, and we'll
have dinner together tonight."
Then Preston mentioned the location of the restaurant, a popular one near Camille's company.
Sienna felt that Preston was the type of person who never asked if others were willing and just made
decisions directly. This made her feel uncomfortable.
Her tone became even colder as she said, "Mr. Walker, in my opinion, you should ask Cami if she's
willing first. After all, the company has been busy these days. Besides, she might already have plans.
She's a married woman now, unlike Mr. Walker, who can eat his fill without the family being hungry!"
Sienna had never shown any mercy towards Preston.
Her words were directly aimed at his heart.
But at this moment, Preston didn't mind at all and instead smiled lightly, saying, "Sienna, even though
you're married now, as far as I know, Mario is also in Hance City, right? His feelings for you are no
secret. Do you really want people to spread this non-secret around? I don't think the Ward family would
appreciate it, would they?"
