Chapter 1284: Worries
As noon arrived in Hance City, Ayan, who was far away in a foreign country, had already woken up.
After returning from the partyst night, he took a shower and went to bed early, sleeping straight
through until around eight o''clock. Since he was on a business trip, he didn''t need to wake up early and
go to the office like in Hance City. After waking up, he quickly freshened up and came out of his room.
Kian had already ordered breakfast to be delivered by the hotel, mostly consisting of Western-style
dishes. Ayan wasn''t particrly fond of them, so he only requested a cup of coffee and a sandwich.
While eating breakfast and looking at his phone, he saw messages from Camille, as well as photos
from Timmy and the sandwich Camille made. The smile on his face didn''t fade as he looked at them,
but suddenly the sandwich in front of him seemed tasteless. In his heart, he longed to eat a sandwich
made by Camille herself. He replied to Camille, saying, "When I return, bring the sandwich you made to
pick me up at the airport, okay?" He didn''t want to wait until he got home; he wanted to eat it as soon
as hended in Hance City. He missed her, even though it had only been a day since he arrived. She
upied his mindpletely.
He also took a picture of his breakfast and the view outside the window to show Camille. He said to
her, "I''ll have to start working soon. We can have dinner with Horace and Grace in the afternoon. Shall
we have a video call together?" After sending his message, it took about half an hour for Camille to
reply. She had just gone to have lunch with her colleagues in the meeting room. Since the space was
order lunch today; it was delivered directly. Camille treated everyone and wanted them to eat well, so
they would have more motivation to work.
During lunch, everyone chatted and rarely looked at their phones. It wasn''t until after finishing their
meal that Camille saw the message from Ayan. She immediately replied, "Just had lunch." "Tonight, I''m
going to have dinner with Crystal. She gave us some local specialtiesst time, so Sienna and I are
treating her tonight." "You can have Grace and Horace video call uster. It''s been a while since we
messages. They wouldn''t voice or video call each other.
Recently, Camille didn''t know if the Armstrong family had given up on finding Grace. They hadn''t
mentioned anything about Grace for a long time, so Camille had minimal contact with them as well.
Camille didn''t care about the affairs of the Armstrong family and never took the initiative to inquire. So
she wanted to talk to Grace about the Armstrong family. If the Armstrong family continued like this,
Grace could stay in Flento City or Dane City and be closer to Hance City. She could also see Horace
more often. After all, a long-distance rtionship was not a sustainable solution.

Ayan was probably not too busy, so he could chat with Camille for a few moments. Camille asked him a
couple of questions about his situation abroad, and Ayan answered seriously and in detail. Looking at
the way they were conversing, Camille couldn''t help but sigh and say, "I feel like we''re in the same
situation as Horace and Grace. Long-distance rtionships are really ufortable." "Do you miss
me?" Ayan asked. Camille didn''t try to conceal or deny it. She said, "Yes, I miss you a lot. So when will
youe back?" Ayan looked at Camille''s straightforward response, his face filled with a smile, and
then he pressed the voice message button. With a low and hoarse voice, he said, "I''lle back as
soon as I finish my work. It should take about two more days if everything goes smoothly. I''ll do my
best, okay?" After listening to his message, Camille also responded with a voice message. She said,
"Okay, remember to bring me a gift when youe back." "What do you want?" "Buy whatever you
want. I can''t think of anything specific." Being abroad, there were luxury brands and some niche
brands, but Camille didn''t feel like she wascking anything. She just wanted him to buy her a small
gift, even if it was something very trivial.
It was probably just a simple desire for gifts. Camille had this thought in her mind and she began to
wonder what Ayan would bring back for her. After chatting for a while, Ayan had to go attend to some
business and he bid Camille farewell, ending their conversation.
Ayan had not epted Mr. Tillery''s invitation to meet his familyst night, but he couldn''t refuse the
lunch today at noon. After all, Mr. Tillery had personally called and invited him, and they also had some
work to discuss. So Ayan couldn''t refuse.
As lunchtime approached, Mr. Tillery''s secretary arrived at the hotel downstairs. He personally drove to
pick up Ayan and Kian. From him, they learned that Mr. Tillery had reserved today''s lunch at an
upscale restaurant that required a reservation several days in advance. He mentioned this to let Ayan
know that Mr. Tillery valued him and wanted Ayan to recognize Mr. Tillery''s sincerity.
However, Ayan''s responses were always in and unremarkable. Throughout the journey, it was
mostly Kian and Mr. Tillery''s secretary who engaged in conversation.
They arrived at the restaurant after a short drive. The secretary led Ayan and Kian to take the elevator
upstairs to the private room. Inside the private room, there were two tables-one main table and one for
the secretary. Mr. Tillery was already waiting in the room. He was an elderly white man in his sixties, tall
in stature, and his appearance didn''t reveal his age at all. He exuded amanding presence and had
a deep, resonant voice.
In addition to him, there was his wife whom Ayan had met before. The couple had simr body types-
rather sturdy andcking the delicate and refined features of Eastern women. They gave off a slightly
rough impression. Apart from Mr. Tillery and his wife, there was a youngdy whom Ayan had not seen
before.
The youngdy was dressed in a very avant-garde style, with long golden curls and heavy makeup.
Her gaze remained fixed on Ayan from the moment he entered the private room and never wavered.
Mr. Tillery and his wife also turned their attention to Ayan. Mr. Tillery extended his hand to shake Ayan''s
and said, "Wee, Mr. Simpson. Please have a seat!"
Only these few people were present for today''s meal, so the spacious private room felt somewhat
quiet. Ayan nodded slightly and took a seat next to Mr. Tillery. Mrs. Tillery sat on the other side of Mr.
Tillery, and the avant-garde youngdy sat beside Mrs. Tillery.
Ayan calmly replied, "I''m worried." Updated at Draм??оvels.cоm
