Chapter 72 The first to take the initiative will lose
Ayan also put down his chopsticks, took a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth before looking up
at her: "I want to make Grandpa happy with his birthday party, besides, I'll go with you to the Armstrong
family tonight to formally invite them."
Rather than asking Camille what she meant, he told Camille his decision in a declarative statement.
The old Simpson birthday is bound to invite the Armstrong family, rather than go back alone, it is better
to go with Ayan.
At least it saves some unnecessary conflicts and troubles.
Camille had no problem with that, and she nodded, "Okay, then do as you say."
"I'll pick you up in the evening."
"No, I can drive there myself and we'll meet at the Armstrong family ......"
"Camille , we're a couple, and no couple would separate to go to their mother's house one after the
other."
Ayan's voice is low, and his attitude is very firm, which makes Camille feel that he is not the same as
usual at this moment.
Camille pursed her lips and stopped talking, acquiescing.
Because Ayan had a meeting, Camille stayed for a while and then left.
She took a taxi back to the office to talk to Preston about the interior changes, but Preston's assistant
said, "Mr. Walker isn't back yet."
"Didn't come back?"
Camille frowned, took out her cell phone and called Preston , but the call went through and no one
answered until it was finally automatically hung up.
Camille didn't think much of it, just assumed he might be busy and went back to his office.
Camille This busy until the end of the day, the phone also rang at this time, saw the screen display the
note name, she slightly narrowed her eyes, the corners of her mouth spread a smile of surprise.
Immediately afterwards, he picked up, "Hello?"
"It's been so long since you've contacted me, Camille , you're really good."
A woman's soft hum of displeasure came from the phone.
Camille pinched her brow and said in a low voice, "The first one to take the initiative will lose, do you
want me to lose?"
"What do you mean? You want me to lose?"
"I don't dare." She smiled and asked, "Why are you calling me all of a sudden?"
"I'm going to Hance City next month on business, is it convenient to meet?"
Camille's face is gentle, and her eyebrows are unconcealed pleasure: "Of course, let me know in
advance when you come over, and I'll arrange a place for you to stay."
"Can I stay at your house?"
"Whenever you want."
"Count on your good sense, be a good boy and wait for me."
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before ending the call.
Camille was really happy, the smile at the corners of her mouth was obvious, and then she saw the
message from Ayan on her phone a minute ago: "Come down, I'm here."
She tapped the word "hmm" and sent it, then closed her computer and grabbed her bag and walked
out of the office.
As she passed by Preston's office, she suddenly asked, "Preston's not back yet?"
"Well, Mr. Walker never came back, and I called but no one answered."
Camille frowned, looked at the time, and then said, "Go ahead and contact him and have him send me
a message when you do."
"Good."
Camille comes out of the office building and Ayan is already waiting at the curb in his car.
She pulled open the passenger door and sat on it, then fastened her seat belt and looked at the person
in the driver's seat, "Been waiting long?"
"Soon, who was just on the phone with?"
"A friend."
She didn't mean to continue, and Ayan didn't ask any more questions.
A smooth ride back to the Armstrong's villa.
The two were coming over to Brody Page did not know, so just as they walked in the door, they heard
Page say unhappily: "Camille is hardened, now she can directly defy us, should not have brought her
back at the beginning, and should not have married her to the Simpson family, otherwise how dare she
do this to me now? If it weren't for her, would our Armstrong family be broken?"
Page's voice is almost hysterical in its accusations, and his words put all the blame and discontent on
Camille.
Then, Grace whispered soothingly, "Mom, take it easy, your heart is not well, the doctor said to keep
your mood happy, as for the divorce between Camille and Ayan, this is a matter between the couple,
we can't interfere too much."
"They are a couple yes, but she should not forget that she is still the Armstrong, I do not expect her to
do anything for the Armstrong family, but I hope she will not drag the Armstrong family down, you see
how bad the rumors spread in those circles!"
"Maybe it's just a misunderstanding, Jake was originally a playboy, I don't think my sister had contact
with him."
"Grace , just don't excuse her, she didn't grow up around me, I don't understand what kind of person
she is?"
Camille stood at the entrance with a faint face, the hand on the shoe cabinet is also tightly clenched
white, Ayan narrowed his eyes, reached out and took her by the hand, and then led her inside.
He said in a low voice, "Camille and I would not have known if we had not returned today that you had
such a dislike for us as a couple in your heart."
Page and Grace's eyes were filled with shock, Page blushed slightly, then hurriedly got up: "Ayan is
here, have a seat."
Then glanced at Camille , eyes seemed to drift to blame her for not warning.
Grace also hurriedly asked the maid to make tea, and then whispered: "Ayan, why did you suddenly
come over without telling me in advance, so I can also let the family chef prepare a meal."
"I'll walk Camille over here." He took Camille aside and sat down, his bony palm never letting go of her
hand.
Camille did not say a word the whole time, her face was light and her eyes were distant and indifferent.
Brody also entered the house at this time, although he is counted as Ayan's father-in-law, but according
to the status of the mall is lower than Ayan's, so to Ayan is also very polite and attentive.
They had no intention of eating here, and after they had exchanged pleasantries, Camille said, "Ayan
and I came here to talk about something."
Page's face immediately fell: "Camille, don't be ungrateful, don't keep thinking about divorce, Ayan is
grateful enough that you don't care about the things you do outside, why do you keep doing it?"
Camille pursed her lips, her face cold and pale.
Grace also immediately pulled Page's hand: "Mom, you should stop talking, Ayan is still here."
Page That's the end of it.
Camille's voice was lukewarm: "So I'm wrong to do anything without growing up with a daughter you
don't know, right?"
"You ......" Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Ayan and I came to tell you and Dad that you're invited to Grandpa's birthday party at the Simpson's
manson in a few days."
Camille interrupts Page's sentence with a warm expression of intent.
The atmosphere also followed the quiet down, Page's face changed slightly, but there is no apology,
just stop talking.
Brody said, "Okay, Ayan, we'll be there on time, and I wish Mr. Simpson good health in advance."
"Hmm."
Ayan got up with Camille and Brody stayed for dinner, but Ayan refused, saying, "Camille and I are
going to have dinner out and go see a movie together."
He led Camille out of the Armstrong's villa as the trio watched in amazement.
Grace whispered, "Ayan and his sister seem to have a good relationship, Mom, so you should be more
careful in the future."
After saying that, she went upstairs, and as for those emotions and thoughts hidden in her heart, they
were pressed to the deepest depths.
Outside the villa, Camille got into the car with Ayan, but the car didn't move. Camille looked at him in
surprise: "Why aren't you leaving?"
"Where do you want to go?"
"Hmm?"
