Chapter 250: Hidden Dangers
“I don’t know.” Grandma shook her head without thinking twice.
Ayan volunteered to explain, “That’s alright. I just heard the name mentioned by Camille when she
answered the phone. I was worried that she would get into some trouble but wouldn’t tell me, so I want
to ask you. You know, if I force her, she would have a tantrum with me again. Please don’t let her now,
otherwise she would be angry.”
He spoke in earnest and humble terms and grandma didn’t doubt him at all.”
Instead, she said, “Camille didn’t have many friends in Flento City and you have known the people who
are acquainted with her. The Hunter you mentioned exactly is not among them. If you are worried, I’ll
ask her when she comes over later.”
“Well, I’ll have someone look into him. Please act like you don’t know.”
“That’s alright.”
Grandma agreed.
He got no mews from grandma and looked exceedingly cold and grave.
He wondered if she was hiding it too well or there were any other reasons.
Rex called right after he left the hospital and asked him to have lunch together. They haven’t seen each
other for a long time, so Ayan said yes.
He sent a message to Camille intentionally, “I will have lunch with Rex and other friends, would you like
to come with me?”
Camille replied, “Well, you guys eat. I’ll have lunch with Sienna. In the afternoon, I have some work to
deal with and later I have to go the hospital to visit grandma.”
“Well, how about having dinner together?”
“That’s alright.”
The conversation was simple, like a normal couple.
Ayan felt comfortable with this kind of parent-child reporting.
Camille made sure that Ayan had nothing to say before turning off her phone and put it down on the
desk. She had just talked to Mr. Moss about the decoration. Nowadays, the decoration was set up
officially. There were a lot of materials in the warehouse every day. Mr. Moss was worried that
something may be wrong, and confirmed with her every batch of acceptance.
It was a big deal, so Camille couldn't be perfunctory. She had to check it carefully.
In the afternoon, the office door was knocked on and Preston came in.
Camille looked up and asked, “Well, didn’t you go to Armstrong Corp?”
“I got back just now.”
“How’re things going on?”
Preston walked to the desk and sat down. He replied softly, “Well, that’s OK. Maybe the construction
will start in the next few days. I went to the site with Grace today. The surrounding environment is very
nice while the only drawback is that the space is too larger. The party A requires that in addition to
greening, some fitness equipment, children's playgrounds and other facilities are needed.”
“Are these things on budget? I recommend that we should be careful not to have any safety concerns
especially when it comes to safety.” Camille advised earnestly.
Preston nodded. “That’s what I’m thinking. If anything goes wrong in the future, not only will it hurt
others but it will have a bad influence on our company and Armstrong Corp.”
“Yeah.” Camille nodded approvingly.
Preston noticed the name of the document she was checking and asked casually, “Is it the document
for Simpson Group?”
“Yeah. There are many batches of materials coming into the warehouse these days. Each batch needs
checking carefully.”
Preston nodded, “Cami, you’re still so responsible. Is there anything I can do for you?”
“Nope. I’m getting ready to finish. It will be more painstaking when the program of Armstrong Corp
you’re in charge of set up formally. So, seize the time to have a break.”
Camille smiled faintly and Preston gave a smile to show that he was not tired.
After that, they had nothing more to say and the atmosphere went quiet.
Camille felt a bit awkward as the two of them who kept silent met each other’s eyes occasionally. She
didn’t know when there were fewer and fewer things she wanted to share with Preston.
They talked about the work most of the time. They didn’t go out to have dinner or talk about each
other’s personal affairs anymore.
It was like a simple partnership.
Preston had no idea what Camille was thinking certainly. He wanted to say something but stopped at a
second thought. Finally, he said while looking at Camille, “Cami, I have something to talk with you.”
Camille was a bit surprised, “What’s it?”
“You might be unhappy about it, but I don’t want to hide it from you. I think it might be better to tell you
after thinking about it.”
He looked serious, which made Camille frown subconsciously.
Camille said, “Go ahead.”
“The nanny who is taking care of your grandmother is the one you got back from Flento City, right?”
Camille nodded, “Why do you ask it out of the blue?”
“The lady’s husband is called Hunter and he has been followed by Ayan’s men.”
“Be followed by Ayan’s men? How do you know?” Camille was surprised.
However, Preston replied calmly, “Hunter and a driver of Walker family are old friends. My father
mentioned that when Molly came back to Walker family. Then I know that Hunter’s wife is the nanny
taking care of grandma, so I asked Walker family to pay more attention.”
Camille gave a deadpan response and asked, “What’s Ayan doing on checking him?”
Preston gave her a hesitant look. “Cami, it may not be very good for me to tell you. You’d better ask
Ayan personally.”
“That’s alright. Just tell me.”
Camille wanted to know what Ayan looked up Hunter for?
Preston stayed silent for a while and said, “I heard about that Ayan suspected that Hunter was the one
instigated by grandma who destroyed his relationship with Eileen and left her in a vegetative state. I
was worried that Ayan would get into trouble with grandma, so I took it upon myself to have someone
keep an eye at the hospital. Ayan went to hospital today. Did he mention it to you?”
Preston tried to avoid the trivial and dwell on the important.
With an indescribable feeling occurring at the bottom of her heart, she looked at Preston calmly.novelbin
She said, “Did Ayan suspect that Hunter was the one instigated by grandma to break up his
relationship with Eileen? She didn’t even know him before I marred him a year go and my grandma
wouldn’t sabotage others.”
She didn’t believe that.
But Preston continued, “I wonder about this, too. But Cami, if Ayan really doubted grandma, what do
you think he would do considering his concern for Eileen? She’s going to into surgery now, so I’m
worried about something unexpected at this point, so...
He stopped at where it should and didn’t go further.
But his words upset Camille.
She didn’t believe her grandma would have done that, nor did she think grandma had anything to do
with it. But what is Ayan looking up Hunter for?
When it came to her grandma, especially now that the surgery was coming up, Camille could barely
keep calm.
She glanced at Preston and said, “Preston, thank you for telling it to me.”
“Nothing. Talk to him and don’t misunderstand him. You are pregnant now and I shouldn’t have told
you, but I’m worried about you. I don’t want to keep it from you.”
He looked at Camille tenderly.
Camillid nodded slightly. She didn’t want to continue the topic.
At the moment, Preston’s phone rang and he said, “It’s Grace. Probably for the project. Don’t read into
it, talk with Ayan.”
“I get it.”
Camillid gazed after Preston out of her office. Then she picked up her phone and glanced at it. She
hesitated with her lips pursed. Finally, she decided to ask Ayan.
“Did you go to the hospital to visit grandma today?”
She texted to him.
