    Chapter 1293: Emotions


    Ayan raised his gaze slightly after hearing the question, all eyes focused on him. However, he simply


    said, "I don''t have a better proposal for now, but with a strong team that has good understanding and


    loyalty, nothing will be difficult."


    He didn''t know what Mr. Tillery meant by asking this question, so he couldn''t possibly speak the truth.


    He couldn''t express his true thoughts either. Because he had no intention of participating in this


    international trade cooperation; the risks were too great. It wasn''t the risks of this project, but rather his


    his own channels, so he wouldn''t agree to cooperate on this project for the time being.


    His main purpose foring this time was to wrap up the previous project and also the building project


    in Mr. Tillery''s hands. It was a famous localndmark that had been around for a long time and was


    well-known worldwide, in need of restoration. He wanted to be involved in this project, but Mr. Tillery


    never mentioned it, so he didn''t know what Mr. Tillery was thinking.


    Of course, Ayan couldn''t proactively bring up the matter of this project because once he did, Mr. Tillery


    would undoubtedly think that he was very eager for it and would use it to manipte him. The two


    engaged in a psychological battle. Ayan was a calm and patient person, so he couldn''t possibly lose


    this psychological battle.


    Mr. Tillery was not satisfied with Ayan''s response, as he knew that Ayan had definitely not told the truth.


    But with so many people present, he couldn''t show any displeasure. He simply said, "So Mr. Simpson


    means that as long as there is enough loyalty and understanding, it would be enough?"


    Ayan raised his head slightly and replied in a warm tone, "That''s the condition I can think of for now. So


    I hope Mr. Tillery can provide some additional information."


    Ayanpletely relinquished his initiative. He didn''t want to have any control over this matter. Could


    Mr. Tillery not see through his dy?


    Mr. Tillery just smiled, and no one could tell how he truly felt. He didn''t continue to say anything else


    and turned the conversation to other matters after ncing at Ayan.


    After chatting for about half an hour, they finally made their way to the dining table. They were having


    the local specialties, which leaned more towards Western cuisine, but Ayan didn''t particrly enjoy it


    and only picked at the food.


    Hannibal sat next to Ayan and noticed his actions, as well as his distracted state tonight. Hannibal took


    advantage of Mr. Tillery''s conversation with others and asked Ayan softly, "What''s wrong, Mr. Simpson?


    Does the food not suit your taste? Are you not used to it?"


    "It''s fine," Ayan responded calmly. Since Hannibal was Horace''s friend, his attitude was slightly more


    rxed. Ayan looked at Hannibal and asked, "Have you tried Chinese food before?"


    Hannibal nodded, "Of course, Horace is very good at making Chinese dishes, they taste amazing."


    "Oh, really? He never mentioned it. How about we go to his ce tomorrow and try it?"


    "That would be great because he''s currently in a new rtionship, and I didn''t want to bother him by


    asking him to cook for me. But if Mr. Simpson initiates the request, I''m sure he would dly agree."


    Hannibal hadpletely lost his appetite for this Western meal. Although it was considered high-end in


    the Western cuisine scene, he was tired of it and now craved a delicious Chinese meal.


    Perhaps because Hannibal, someone who could still be considered a friend, was present, Ayan didn''t


    feel the passage of time as agonizingly.


    The people at this table, except for him and Hannibal, all love to drink. They mix red wine and spirits,


    and everyone has a strong tolerance for alcohol.


    Naturally, this meal took a long time to finish, continuing untilte at night. When they left the hotel,


    their respective drivers and secretaries were already waiting outside. After bidding farewell, everyone


    got into their cars and prepared to leave.


    At that moment, Mr. Tillery called his secretary to stop Ayan. Mr. Tillery''s secretary said to Ayan, "Mr.

    Simpson, Mr. Tillery would like to speak with you."


    Ayan was already sitting in the car and not particrly interested. He replied with a cold tone, "It''s very


    His response wasn''t in a good mood, and Mr. Tillery''s secretary was taken aback for a moment. Then


    he whispered, "Would you like to have a phone conversation with Mr. Tillery?"


    The secretary didn''t want to offend Ayan, especially since he had witnessed Ayan directly reject the


    idea of marrying Mr. Tillery''s daughter. He held Mr. Tillery in high regard!


    Ayan didn''t want to waste any more time, so he didn''t refuse the suggestion from Mr. Tillery''s secretary.


    The secretary immediately dialed the driver''s number on his phone and put it on speakerphone for Mr.


    Tillery. He spoke softly to Mr. Tillery, suggesting they have a conversation over the phone. Mr. Tillery


    neither agreed nor disagreed, so that was how it went.


    However, Mr. Tillery remained silent throughout, and the atmosphere was somewhat quiet.


    Ayan squinted his eyes and calmly asked, "What does Mr. Tillery want to discuss?"


    His tone was exceptionally cold,cking any warmth.


    Perhaps due to alcohol, Mr. Tillery''s tone was rather direct as he asked, "What does Mr. Simpson


    mean? After ending this coboration, do you have no intention of continuing?"


    "Mr. Tillery has had too much to drink." Ayan''s tone remained calm, without any emotion.


    Mr. Tillery continued, "Does Mr. Simpson think that Simpson Group has firmly established itself here


    and no longer needs Tillery Group?"


    Ayan''s attitude was very friendly, and his words left Mr. Tillery unable to find any issues. Updated at

    But Ayan remained indifferent and even cold throughout, leading Mr. Tillery to involuntarily believe that


    Ayan looked down on him and that everything he showed was just a facade.


    Once this idea entered Mr. Tillery''s mind, it only grew stronger.


    For example, just now, he asked his secretary to call Ayan over, partly to demonstrate his status and


    position. However, Ayan didn''te over but instead dealt with him over the phone.
