Chapter 273 - The Pursuit
Camille also froze, she only reacted to the entanglement between Bella and Sienna at this moment,
looked a little worried and said, "Are you ... okay?"
"I'm fine, so answer my question first."
Sienna took off her disposable gloves, then turns to face Camille with a slight chill in her eyes.
Camille said, "Probably just trying to impress Talia, after all, they've known each other for years, and if
there's a connection, it's that my warning to Bella earlier made the Day family uncomfortable."
"It's false to please, it's true that they want to take this opportunity to step on you, right?" The coldness
under Sienna's eyes deepened as she said, "Bella doesn't like you much because of me, so Mrs. Day
is trying to set you up."
"If she wants to set me up, she doesn't need to personally go to the Simpson family, because all the
families in the circle clearly know what the Simpson family's attitude towards me, and not three or two
sentences of provocation can affect that, so don't take it seriously, it has nothing to do with you, I talk to
you about this matter because I want you to know that the Simpson family treats me better than the
Armstrong family does."
Sienna collected her heartfelt emotions and said with a slightly lighter face, "I think so too, in fact I have
always had a doubt, if it wasn't for the fact that the Simpson family has been so good to you, I would
have to wonder if there was some purpose to it?"
Camille laughed: "What do they want from me?"
"They probably want you to become the real deal "the Simpson family", so they are trying to buy you off
with what's best for you."
"Probably."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
After that, there were few more conversations about the design blueprint.
With less than half a month to go before the start of the second round, Sienna was now a little worried
and said, "Cami, have you asked Ayan if this can be finished before the tournament?"
This question made the expression on Camille's face subconsciously become blank as well.
She sighed helplessly: "I didn't ask, he is too busy these days, while dealing with the outside world and
the Simpson Group's internal affair, as for the competition matter, he didn't ask about that, neither I
mention it."
"I suggest you have to ask, if you can't solve it before the tournament, what will you do?"
Sienna asked.
Camille responded after a moment of silence, "There is nothing to do, the worst that can happen is to
withdraw from the competition."
She said it lightly, without any emotion or expression on her face.
But the heart was blue.
She prepared for such a long time, not to mention the heart and soul, because of the efforts made in
this matter and the cooperation of Yessica and the three of them, Camille felt very sorry for the
withdraw.
She just couldn't show any emotion, which would affect the others as well, so she had to keep a good
heart and also go to appease the others to do the same with her.
When you think about it, it's pretty exhausting.
Because of Sienna's mention of the incident, Camille also made a decision in her mind that some
things should be taken as a precautionary measure in case they really happen and the results are
unacceptable.
The two talked for a long time, so they lost track of time.
It was only when Camille's cell phone rang that they were interrupted.
After looking at the caller ID, she simply cut it off.
"Why don't you answer it?" Sienna asked, giving her a look.
Camille pursed her lips, "It's Ayan calling."
"What does he mean? You come to my place for a chat and you have to count the time?"
Sienna expressed contempt.
Camille, however, smiled faintly, "Probably afraid we'd say something bad about him."
Finally Camille got up and left under Sienna's displeasure.
Sienna had her fill of dog food and had little appetite for pizza and coffee.
.....
The next day, which was already the fourth day after the collapse.
The Simpson Group's various fervor has dropped quite a bit, but there are still a lot of people following
this story.
Ayan arrived at the company early in the morning, and after a meeting with the company executives, he
went back to his office, followed by Kian.
Ayan sat down at his desk and Kian handed over his work schedule for the day: "Mr. Simpson, the jury
of the architect competition and the partner called and wanted to know if the second round would be
held as scheduled?"
"Why not?"
Ayan frowned slightly.
Kian explained, "They were probably worried that the recent events would affect the game."
He snorted coldly, "Do you not eat or drink anything because your finger is injured?"
Kian had his head down, didn't dare to make a sound.
He was just a messenger and risked getting fired but not by much.
The atmosphere was briefly quiet for half a minute, Ayan finished sweeping all the work arrangements
in front of him, then raised his eyes to Kian and said, "Free up my time at noon, I have a dinner date
with Rex, besides, the cooperation between Zhou's side and Simpson Group can not be renewed, if
they want to ask the reason, then let them go to Mrs. Day and Bella themselves to ask a clear question.
Day and Bella to ask for clarification."
Ayan indifferently commanded, then has lowered his head to continue reading other documents.
Kian, however, is a bit suspicious, suddenly to Zhou like this is out of what?
Because Bella messed with Camille?
That's all he could think of, and then he still hurriedly nodded and did as Ayan had arranged.
After Zhou's side got the news, they also cried out and immediately contacted Rex, but Rex's side also
asked three questions and had no idea what happened?
Rex immediately called Ayan: " What's going on at Day Group?"
"Didn't you tell them to find Bella and Mrs. Day? You're already in charge of the Day family's affairs
before you're even married to Bella?"
Ayan's words were cynical, with a tone of indifference that stung Rex's ears.
Rex said, "I didn't provoke you, did I?"
"Cut the crap, what do you want? Are you here as a lobbyist for the Day family?"
"Of course not, I just want to know an inside story, or a reason to say no, right?"
Ayan cold snort, the eyes are all cold: "The inside story is to do things that should not be done, say
things that should not be said, counting up, you can not escape."
How could Rex not hear the implication of his words?
His face changed slightly and his voice darkened: "Because of what I did with Sienna?"
"Is it I do not know, but more or less related, this time it all depends on Camille, actively looking to fight
the Simpson family to my mother to sow discord, the Simpson family so fond of Camille even I can not
compare, you think they can sow success?"
Ayan was completely out of his depth and didn't feel any displeasure at all because Camille was more
likeable than he was in the Simpson family.
After listening, Rex said in an indifferent tone, "Since it is a matter concerning the Simpson family, I am
not in a position to interfere as a friend, so I don't know anything."
Ayan just slightly narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice: "There are something I want to talk
about, if you really don't get the guts to make a decision before it is too late."
His words were on point, and as for how Rex was going to choose, that's Rex's own business.
Originally Ayan intended to meet with Rex at dinner time, but now after the phone call to make it clear,
the dinner was canceled.
He dialed Camille's number directly after a moment of silence.
But the person who answered the phone was Sienna, who asked, "Cami is not available right now, whynovelbin
don't you call back later?"
"Is she busy?"
"Well ... she is a little busy." Sienna stared at the two figures in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a
slyly bad intention under her eyes and said faintly, "A wooer came to see her and they are chatting
now, so you can call later, it should be okay, right, Mr. Simpson?"
