Chapter 1501 - Going Mad
Sienna's eyes showed a hint of solemnity. "I don't know if there's anything between him and Ayan?Has Ayan mentioned anything to you?"novelbin
Camille shook her head lightly. "No, I haven't asked him either."
But she could guess that there was definitely something going on, otherwise Preston wouldn'tbehave like this.
What exactly was the situation that made Preston act this way? Every time he would make a bigdeal out of little things, it was truly perplexing. She had asked Ayan why Preston was doing this, buteven Ayan couldn't come up with an answer. So it was a helpless situation.
Sienna just nodded, showing her understanding. She said, "Preston keeps seeking attention likethis, could it be because of jealousy? One's jealousy should not be underestimated. If he's doingthis out of jealousy and keeps clinging onto you, it's not a solution in the long run because you havefamily and children, but he's all alone. Even turning against the Walker family who raised him showshow heartless this man can be."
Camille also nodded in agreement with Sienna's words. After spending so much time with Prestonand all these incidents, it really made it hard for her to like him.
Naturally, this kind of liking was just between friends.
Now she didn't even want to be friends with him, so, of course, she was already deeplydisappointed in this person in her subconscious mind.
She was also clear that their principles did not align.
Camille pursed her lips, not wanting to continue this topic anymore. She sent a message to Ayan:"I'm going for a walk with Sienna."
She knew Ayan was busy, so she didn't want him to accompany her. She wanted him to rest earlyafter finishing up his work, and not stay up late.
Since the start of the situation, Ayan hadn't responded directly, which made the online spectatorsfeel bored. It felt as if they were watching a one-man show, making it boring and pointless, whichgradually decreased the hype.
Some people were not happy with this situation.
Around nine in the evening.
In the hotel room, a woman with a cold face looked at the popular forum on her tablet. Her eyeswere filled with coldness, and she angrily dialed a number. When the other side answered, her coldvoice rang out, "You said they would react. Why haven't they responded at all?"
If there was still no response, they couldn't continue with the next steps.
The man on the phone seemed indifferent, saying, "Don't be impatient. It's still early; this has justbegun. The ending of this game is in our hands. The process of the game is irrelevant, isn't it?"
The woman's complexion eased slightly, but only for two or three seconds. Then she asked coldly,"What if the ending is not what we expect?"
"Impossible."
"You're that confident?"
"Of course, that's why I hope you can trust me. Only by trusting our cooperation can it become morestable."
The woman remained silent for a moment and then said, "I just want to see a favorable situation forus quickly. I want to move on to the next step."
"I promise, at the latest, within two days."
"Okay, remember what you said."
"What about what I want?" the man asked.
"It's already being prepared."
The man didn't say much, and the two said what they needed to. The call ended in this way.
After hanging up, the man's face instantly turned grim.
His face showed coldness between his brows, and he lit a cigarette on the table. He took a deepdrag, and a cloud of white smoke surrounded his face. After a while, he walked out of the room.
He directly headed towards the opposite room and opened the door without knocking.
The person inside, upon hearing the door open, instinctively turned to look at him. Seeing hisgloomy expression, she asked, "What's wrong?"
The man's expression turned cold, and he said, "You've been here for a few days now. When doyou plan to deal with Ayan?"
"Preston, dealing with Ayan is not a simple matter. You know his power. We have to take it step bystep. Do you really want to confront him at this point and end up with nothing?" Elijah looked atPreston with a serious tone, but his words only fueled Preston's anger.
Preston looked at him with a chilling look in his eyes. "So are you saying I'm not as good as Ayan?"
"I didn't mean that. I just don't want you to be harmed, and I don't want your efforts to gounrewarded," Elijah explained.
But Preston didn't listen at all. He snorted coldly, with a chilly determination in his eyes. "I don't needrewards. I just want Ayan and the Simpson family to pay. As for whether I benefit or what price Ipay, I don't care. If I was afraid, I wouldn't have waited until now. All I want now is to make Ayanpay. This is what the Simpson family owes me."
Elijah fell silent, just looking at Preston. He knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't changePreston's thoughts and decisions. Hatred had already filled Preston's heart, and he was willing to goto any length to make Ayan and the Simpson family suffer. He had indeed done so all along.
Elijah sighed silently. He spoke with a low voice, "Preston, have you ever thought about what kind oflife you want after this is over?"
Preston fell silent for a moment and then said indifferently, "I don't have these thoughts now. I onlywant to achieve what I want in my heart. Only when I achieve what I want can I be at peace.Otherwise, I can't just sit and watch Ayan thrive."
Elijah didn't say anything. He knew that Ayan wasn't just thriving, he was manipulating everything,and everything seemed to be in his control.
He wanted to tell Preston that no matter how many years passed, he wouldn't be able to matchAyan. He could see Ayan's abilities and strengths clearly. He didn't want to see Preston throwinghimself against a stone wall, but some words were hard to say because Preston wouldn't listen andwould doubt his motives. So he remained silent.
Preston didn't know Elijah's thoughts. He just looked at him and then said lightly, "I need to see yoursincerity as soon as possible. I don't want to wait any longer. Make Ayan stumble hard while thesituation is still hot. If he continues to show no reaction, I will go mad!"
