Female Novel
Chapter 240 The Burden
Ayan looked at her with a serious face that seemed to tell her again, "I must go."
Camille pressed her lips slightly, just smiled, and said, "okay."
Ayan got up, picked up his coat from the coat rack, and walked straight out the door.
Hearing the sound of the office door closing, Camille's heart sank.
He said he didn't love Eileen, but he rushed over just because Eileen said so.
If that was not love. What was it?
She smiled helplessly and sat quietly in the office for a long time. Then she got up and left.
Seeing her coming out, Kian immediately greeted her, "Mrs. Armstrong, may I take you home?"
Kian had told Ayan to do so specifically before he left.
Camille shook her head and refused. "No, the driver is waiting downstairs."
Kian nodded and walked her to the elevator. He pushed the button for her and waited until she was
inside the elevator, then he returned to his post.
Sophia arrived with the project proposal in her hand. "Are they still in there?" she asked Kian.
"No, Mr. Simpson is out on business, and Mrs. Simpson has just left."
"Did they leave separately?"
"Yes."
Sophia frowned slightly, then handed Kian the proposal herself. "Give it to him."
Kian nodded and said yes.
Sophia asked again, "is Ayan out for something important?"
Kian said he didn't know, then Sophia left.
...
Eileen was preparing for a concert in the past two days, today just she had a shooting job in a horse
ranch in the suburbs.
Since she signed with the Simpson Group, Eileen had never worried about the explosion of her
activities, as the company had a professional agent working on her behalf.
The only pity was that she rarely saw Ayan, even when she had a contract to sign with Simpson Group.
It was as if she had been deliberately separated from him for no reason.
She was filming when Ayan arrived.
Her agent saw Ayan and immediately said, "Mr. Simpson, what are you doing here? Do you want me to
go get Eileen now?"
"No." Ayan looked at the woman filming in the distance. "She's been working a lot lately?' he asked
nonchalantly.
"Not a lot. It was a shoot about a week ago and then there was nothing more until after the concert."
"Okay,'' he replied, and his handsome face was expressionless.
He waited for about ten minutes, and Eileen's shoot was over.
She rode the horse over and looked very happy seeing Ayan. She waved and shouted, "Ayan..."
without feeling embarrassed.
Her term of endearment made the crowd gossip, but because of Ayan's title, everyone could only keep
their thoughts to themselves.
Just a few steps to the exit, Eileen was so excited that she accidentally kicked the horse with her feet,
causing the front of the horse to lurch upward and Eileen fell straight off.
She shouted, "Ouch!!"
She fell to the ground. But she was lucky the trainer was holding the rope, otherwise, the horse's front
legs would have landed directly on Eileen.
It was a heart-stopping scene that scared everyone. Eileen fell and hurt her foot. The agent helped her
up, but she couldn't stand.
Eileen gritted her teeth several times and tried to stand up, but her foot hurt badly.
She looked at Ayan with red tearing eyes, and said, "Ayan, can you hold me?"
Ayan just frowned and had a very serious look on his face.
Because of the commercial shooting, there were a lot of people around the scene. He didn’t want to
attract people’s attention. All he wanted was to ask her about what happened a year ago. He didn’t
want to waste any more time here. After thinking about it, he walked toward her.
Eileen looked very satisfied and raised her arms, allowing him to hold her up, then she put her hands
around his neck.
Ayan didn’t show any emotion on his face.
Eileen gave her assistant a look, who immediately understood her meaning and took some photos.
Ayan carried her from the farm to his car, along with her manager and assistant.
In the car, Eileen looked at Ayan apologetically. "Ayan, I'm really sorry you came here, and now you
have to take me to the hospital."
Ayan didn't have any emotion or reaction, just gave her a faint glance. "Tell me what the person you
remember looked like?"
"Right now? Maybe, we should wait until we get to the hospital." Eileen said it was inappropriate timing.
Then Ayan didn’t say anything.
They arrived at the hospital half an hour later, the agent accompanied Eileen to her examination while
Ayan stood in the hallway outside the examination room smoking a cigarette.
He didn't know at the moment that pictures of him carrying Eileen at the horse ranch had been posted
online.
The news immediately became a trending search.
It was widely known that Eileen and Ayan had dated, but Ayan was now married to Camille, which was
publicly announced by the Simpson Group.
The trio's relationship and entanglements had created a lot of rumors online.
"Are Ayan and Camille divorced?"
"The Simpson family doesn't like the Armstrong family because they descended?"
"Can they respond to what happened?"
"What about Eileen's publicist and agent? Why didn't anyone respond?"
"Did he get divorced and get back with Eileen?"
"Best wishes!!!!"
"..."
There had been a lot of speculation for a while, but there had been no response from them.
The Simpson family also heard about it and tried to contact Ayan. But they could not get through the
call. Finally, they could only call Kian to ask him to contact Ayan immediately to solve this matter.
Camille, of course, saw this too. She thought, "Was he rushing over because Eileen was injured?"
"Is that why he must go?"novelbin
She scoffed. If he cared so much about Eileen, why would he say things that would mislead her?
Just at the same moment, her grandmother called.
Grandma told her to come right away.
Camille guessed it had something to do with the news, so she rushed to the hospital without any delay.
After meeting Camille, her grandmother asked her, "what’s up with Ayan and that girl? Are they talking
about your divorce? Are Ayan and she going to be together? Camille, tell grandma, is it because of
me?"
"Grandma, don't listen to what people say. It's all gossip. It's not true. Ayan and I are not getting
divorced, and it's none of your business."
"Really? So, why is Ayan holding her?"
Camille simply didn't know how to explain it.
But Grandma was old and very emotional. She didn't want to bother anyone by staying at the hospital.
She was worried about putting a burden on Camille, so she began to doubt herself.
Camille was so frustrated that she finally reached for her cell phone and contacted Ayan. "I'll give him a
call, and I'll let him talk to you, okay?"
Her grandmother nodded.
Camille dialed Ayan's cell phone. It was ringing, but no one answered until it automatically hung up.
She retailed the call two more times, with the same result.
Her hand clenched on the phone and she looked at her grandmother with a little pretended composure,
but finally, she had to tell her the truth.
Camille said, "he's probably busy. Let's call back later, okay?"
