Chapter 686 Deep Water
The coldness on her face was as cold as the winter weather, and her eyes were filled with indifference
as she froze for a moment.
Preston could feel the detachment and coldness of her questioning, but he never had the slightest
change of expression, and his tone was just the same as before, he said, "Cami, I don't want to do
anything, and I don't have any purpose, I just don't want to watch you do things you don't want to do for
the sake of the company, we are friends, I naturally want to do my best to make you not so much
bothered of things."
"Since we're friends, all the more reason why you shouldn't act in such a way, I'll only grow less and
less if you do, and I don't find these things annoying, so don't meddle in my affairs too much, okay?"
Camille's tone was raw and eager.
But Preston said, "You are not suitable for these diplomatic functions, the water in this circle is very
deep, I don't want you to make a big deal out of it, you are just responsible for drawing as before, just
do what you want to do, the rest of these trivial things are left to me to handle for you, Cami, I don't
mean anything, I just want you to have an easy time, if you don't want If you don't want me to interfere,
then I'll arrange for you to have someone else take over the matter, okay?"
"No, I don't need these."
"Cami!"
"I said I don't need to, I can do it on my own, everyone has to go through a lot, it's impossible to be still
all the time years, so I also ask you to stop meddling can you?" Camille's tone is becoming less and
less patient, in the face of this kind of goodness from Preston she really feels that it is not necessary.
Because she doesn't need or want it.
If she needed help, she would have asked Ayan long ago.
Because she felt that she could help once but not forever, there are some things, especially work-
related problems, this time to solve, then the next time?
So she wanted to try it herself, and she also wanted to take Yessica with her, so that at least she
wouldn't be limited again when she encountered the same problem in the future.
Preston did not respond, so naturally it was a no-no.
Camille wordlessly took a deep breath before saying, "If you don't say anything, I'll take that as your
default. Thank you for your kind words, but I want to work on my own."
Camille hung up the call and then immediately called the manager who had signed her contract and
asked to be released.
The other side was very surprised and puzzled, and asked why Camille just said, "It's not right!"
But that signing manager said, "Sorry Camille I can't say yes to you directly for now because it's
already signed and I need to apply with my superiors."
"Good, then I'll trouble you, I'll wait for your news, I've given you trouble."
After the phone call, Camille sat limp in her office chair, she sighed heavily, her phone still clutched in
her hand, and her mood was a bit unspeakably depressing.
She could not help but ask herself if this was too impulsive. There is no need to be impulsive just for
the sake of the company, just tell Preston not to make an exception, and as for this time just accept it
gladly, right?
But immediately after this thought popped up, another voice was immediately telling her that she
couldn't do it.
There is more than just a project involved.
Project no longer can be found in the new, but some things once touched can not be changed.
Because she knows that Ayan does not like Preston, if she still insists on accepting Preston's kindness,
that would be unfair to Ayan, in addition to there is a thorn in her heart, the matter about Grandma is
like a sharp fish thorn stuck in Camille's heart.
The signing manager who finished the phone call with Camille also immediately told Preston the news,
and Preston's response was naturally reluctant.
He told the contract manager, "If you want to break the contract, you can, so pay the breach of
contract!"
The contract manager relayed the results to Camille, and as a bystander, he said, "Camille, why are
you breaking your contract? There's no risk in this project, we're backed by the Hance City Museum,
it's a living sign, it's a sure thing for you and your company. Otherwise, how bad would it be to pay for
the breach of contract of a few million?"
Camille asked plainly, "You're Chew .... ... Benjamin's people, right?"
Camille actually wanted to ask if it was one of Preston's people, but thought that Preston's name is now
Benjamin in Hance City.
The contracting manager froze, and his stammering gave Camille the answer as well.
So she has nothing to say.
And then Camille also consulted a lawyer friend, because the contract was signed and already had
legal effect. At that time, Camille also asked about the breach of contract clause, but eventually signed,
so this was equivalent to accepting all the terms and requirements.
If you want to withdraw now, either the other party does not pursue, after all, there is not yet any loss,
as long as the other party is willing to this matter is very good solution, or pay for breach of contract.
A breach of contract is not a small amount, even Ayan will also think twice, to her even if she sold all
probably only barely enough.
Camille spent the whole day at the office annoyed by the incident, but even then she did not contact
Preston again, because she knew that even if she did, it would be of little use.
In the afternoon, Camille left the office early and drove back to Maple Leaves Mansion.
She took the elevator directly to Ayan's floor. Ayan will go back to the Simpson Group tomorrow
morning, so she's staying home today.
She opened the door with the password and was still in the foyer when she heard Ayan's voice from
the living room, "Off duty?"
Ayan's gentle gaze followed, seeing the gravity and preoccupation on her face.
He asked, "What's wrong? A look of displeasure."
Camille pursed her lips slightly, walked over to sit in the empty seat next to him, faced him, and
confessed, "I need to tell you something."
"Go ahead."
Camille's face was serious, and she told Ayan the whole story clearly and unambiguously, with her
eyes fixed on his warm face and unable to see his inner emotions.
Camille said, "Do you get angry?"
"Why should I be upset?" Ayan asked warmly and rhetorically, a faint smile appearing between his
eyebrows as he said, "Is that why you're all upset because of this?"
She looked at Ayan with a bewildered expression: "Didn't you want me to keep my distance from
Preston? Now because of my negligence I have to accept his favor to join the common project, and
there may be a lot of contact next, so you really are not angry?"
Ayan hooked his lips and smiled, his gentle eyes stared at her unblinkingly, his gaze overwhelmed
Camille, especially since his silence made Camille even more clueless.
When Camille pursed her lips and wondered what Ayan was thinking, he suddenly reached towards
her, Camille looked at her in confusion, he smiled slightly and nodded gently, Camille then lifted her
hand and landed on his palm.
He held Camille's hand tightly and brought the person to sit beside him, a handsome face full of gentle
smile, he said, "I am not angry, I am happy, happy that you are willing to take the initiative to say to me,
I hope it can be like this in the future, I think I am worthy of your trust, so you do not need to have any
defenses and concealment from me, you can tell me everything in a big way, with me around, don't be
afraid no matter what, eh?"
Camille raised her eyes to meet Ayan's and she asked, "Would you like me to work with him?"
"Why not, if it's a project that's coming to you? This project is connected to the Hance City Museum,
which is only good for you, and since Preston has taken the trouble to let you join this project, it will
have many benefits for your company and future development, and don't you want Yessica to be on her
own? Then use this project to make her study harder and learn better so that you don't need to work so
hard in the future, huh?"
Even Ayan thought the project would be good for Camille and the company, which put Camille in a
deep conflict.novelbin
She asked Ayan, "So you think I should work with him? Accept the project even if I have to owe him
this favor?"
Ayan did not want her to misunderstand, so he reached out and gently cupped her chin and said in a
clear tone, "In what role would you like me to answer this question? As the father of your husband and
children or as Mr. Simpson of the Simpson Group?"
