    Chapter 1253: Vulnerability


    "Well, I''m really not in a good mood, so please don''t ask me anymore, okay? When I feel like talking


    about it, I''ll let you know. Understand?" Sienna told Camille. Sienna and Camille were always like this.


    They didn''t force each other to talk about things they didn''t want to discuss. If they kept pressing, it


    wouldn''t solve anything and might even worsen the other person''s mood.


    So Sienna certainly wouldn''t pressure Camille. Instead, she said to her, "Okay, I won''t ask you, but


    remember, when you want to talk, tell me right away. I''m not an insensitive person, got it?"


    "Yeah, I know," Camille replied.


    Camille chatted with Sienna for a while, and her mood seemed to improve a lot. Just as she put down


    her phone, Ayan came back to the bedroom from the study.


    Seeing her lying on the couch motionless, lost in thought, Ayan walked over and kissed her forehead.


    He spoke softly, "Feeling a bit better now?"


    Camille nodded gently, saying, "Yeah, much better."


    "Do you need me to talk to Sienna?" Ayan asked.


    "Of course not. I''ll handle our matters. It''s unnecessary," Camille reassured him.


    "Okay, I won''t interfere, but I don''t want your mood to be affected. If you continue to look so lost, it will


    also make me unhappy. And when I''m unhappy, I can''t guarantee what I might do." His words carried a


    strong implication, and it sparked a sense of weight.


    Camille smiled lightly and asked, "What do you want to do?"


    "Guess," Ayan smiled faintly, reached out to pull her up, and gently embraced her in his arms. He said,


    "Let''s have dinner together tomorrow night. The project is about to resume, and the Nores family will


    formally apologize to us. We''ll have the meal at one of the Simpson Group''s hotels, our own ce."


    "Yeah, sure," Camille agreed readily.


    She agreed directly without hesitation.


    Ayan was slightly taken aback, then asked softly, "Won''t you feel tired? Will apanying me to these


    social events bother you?"


    "If I said yes, would you not invite me next time?" Camille smiled lightly, her lips wrapped in a smile.


    He said, "Of course not. You''re Mrs. Simpson of the Simpson family, and in the future, you''ll also have


    your own role to y. Although I don''t really want you to be involved in these social events, it''s still


    good to participate to some extent. It''s beneficial for future appearances. At least people will know who


    you are, and no one would dare to challenge your bottom line."


    Camille didn''t mind being associated with anything rted to the Simpson family. It wasn''t something


    that embarrassed her; instead, it was something she was proud of. After all, not everyone had the


    opportunity and luck.


    Camille also rarely refuted Ayan''s intentions. Instead, she smiled gently and said, "Okay, then I''ll walk


    with confidence in public from now on. If anyone dares to say anything, I''ll ask them directly, ''Do you


    know who I am? I have Ayan behind me, and if you dare to bully me, Ayan will take care of you.''"


    Camille vividly described it as if she would say that in the next second.


    Her behavior made Ayan unable to help but smile, and he said, "I''m really looking forward to your


    performance."


    "Will you feel embarrassed if I say it like that?" Camille asked.


    "Why should I feel embarrassed?" Ayan replied. "After all, I''m standing by your side. Aren''t you afraid of


    them talking behind your back?"


    He didn''t hesitate at all and said, "Why should I be afraid of what others say? As long as you''re happy, I


    support whatever you say."


    "Really?" Camille asked.


    "Of course," he said without hesitation, his eyes filled with sincerity as he looked at Camille.


    Camille chuckled and said, "You''re so good to me."


    She reached out and hugged Ayan, and he naturally embraced her, holding her in his arms.


    In a gentle voice, he asked, "Did you have a video call with Timmy?"


    "Yeah, we had a video call, and I also chatted with my mom for a while," Camille replied.


    "If you miss Timmy a lot, do you want to go back to the Simpson''s Mansion tomorrow to see him?"

    Ayan suggested.


    "No need," Camille shook her head. She said, "I''ve been quite busy these past few days, so it''s not


    necessary. Besides, isn''t the project with Nores Group going back to normal? Let''s wait until this busy


    period is over."


    "That works too. Whenever you want to go back, you can go. If you don''t want to drive alone, I''ll


    apany you, or we can have the driver take you," Ayan said. He just felt that the round trip was a


    bit far, so he didn''t want Camille to drive alone. It would be safer with him or the driver.


    Camille nodded in agreement, and then Ayan mentioned the multinational project of the Simpson


    Group. He said, "I might need to go abroad soon. After the Nores Group project stabilizes, it will


    probably be within a week."


    "Go abroad?" Camille looked at Ayan in surprise because he hadn''t mentioned it before, so it caught


    her off guard.


    Ayan exined in detail and then said, "The project is nearingpletion, and it will be reported in


    major media outlets, so I need to go there for some follow-up cooperation and contract signings."


    The Simpson Group also had a significant position overseas. Ayan had expanded the Simpson Group''s


    projects overseas earlier, and he was fortunate to have made connections with many friends who were


    developing abroad. Thanks to these connections, the Simpson Group had gained influence


    internationally.


    Ayan''s detailed exnation greatly surprised Camille. Although she knew the Simpson Group was


    powerful, she didn''t expect it to be this strong. It was many times stronger than she had imagined.


    Camille nodded gently and said, "This matter is important. Focus on handling it, and I''ll be here at


    home!"


    Her words were particrly earnest, and Ayan couldn''t help but smile as he listened. He gently pinched


    Camille''s chin and whispered, "Is that all?"


    Camille looked at him with wide eyes, not understanding his meaning. "What else?" she asked. New

    "Have you never thought about apanying me abroad for this project?" he asked seriously, his


    distinct ck and white eyes fixed on her without wavering. He said, "Would you like to join me?"


    Of course, they had their date nights, but it was still different.


    However, after what happened yesterday, how could Camille leave Hance City and go abroad to have


    fun with Ayan without a guilty conscience? Her mind was now consumed with thoughts of what Preston


    was nning. On one hand, she worried about Timmy''s safety and was also afraid that Preston would


    harm anyone in the Simpson family.


    Camille''s reasons were very valid, leaving no room for doubts or suspicions from Ayan. Consequently,


    Ayan didn''t think much about it and simply nodded in agreement.
