The other person remained silent, and Camille had no idea what they were thinking.
Camille exerted force, pulling on the door handle, but the locked door remained still. She looked around
and saw no one nearby. Even if she shouted at the top of her lungs, no one would hear her through the
car, right?
Camille took a deep breath and spoke again, "Who are you? Do you want money? If you want money, I
can give it to you. I just hope you can let me go, okay?"
Camille's eyes were filled with pleading, her face showing a heavy sense of fear.
At a moment when Camille felt helpless, the driver spoke, "Cami, it's me."
He lowered his mask and took off his sunglasses.
Camille looked at the familiar face in front of her, her eyes filled with obvious fear. She stared blankly at
the person in front of her and said, "Preston, what's the meaning of all this?"
As Camille called him by his name, Preston, the coldness on his face became particularly evident. He
squinted his eyes and looked at Camille with a faint disdain. He said, "Cami, everything I did was
because you forced me to. It was you who didn't answer my calls, and it was you who wanted to cut
ties with me. Cami, we've known each other for so many years, and I've been so good to you. Why
would you treat me so heartlessly? Are you willing to sacrifice our long-lasting friendship for someone
like Ayan?" NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Preston's words were filled with anger and questioning, clearly expressing his dissatisfaction with
Camille's actions today.
He glared fiercely at Camille and said, "You think I've gone too far, don't you? But Camille, what about
you? Have you ever thought about me? How much have I given up for you? How much have I
sacrificed for you? But what about you? Ayan is the only one in your eyes. Are you willing to give up
everyone who has been good to you for Ayan? Do you have any empathy at all?"
Preston's words stunned Camille. She stared at him without blinking, her eyes filled with an expression
of disbelief. But the voice in her ears seemed to be repeating, and she let out a cold smile. She said,
"Are you trying to morally blackmail me? Yes, you have indeed been very good to me, and you have
indeed done a lot for me. But have I never done anything for you? You didn't hesitate to manipulate
even me to achieve your goals. Every time you did something, I told myself that I had to tolerate it
because of your kindness. But you kept getting worse and worse. Even my own parents would have
exhausted all their favors by now."
Camille was also losing control. At first, she didn't know who it was and was genuinely terrified. But
now that she knew it was Preston, she wasn't as afraid anymore. Even if Preston wanted to retaliate
against her, she still held a glimmer of hope, thinking that he wouldn't go to such extremes.
Camille didn't know if her thoughts were correct or not.
The two of them argued in the car, and Camille's phone started ringing. Naturally, it was Ayan calling,
probably to check on Camille's whereabouts after their meeting. However, the phone was in Preston's
hand, so Camille could only watch it ring. Ayan noticed the caller ID and let out a cold sneer, saying,
"You see, you will never feel any sadness for me, because your eyes only have Ayan. You're willing to
sacrifice everyone for Ayan."
Preston chuckled coldly, and with his words, the coldness on his face became more and more
apparent, completely overshadowing his entire expression. It looked particularly eerie. He sneered,
"You can give up everything for Ayan, but have you ever considered what Ayan can do for you? Can he
do as much for you as I have? Do you want to find out?"
Camille's eyes flickered with uncertainty, and she asked, "What are you trying to do?"
Preston didn't answer, he simply hung up Ayan's call and handed Camille a bottle of water, saying,
"Drink it."
Camille hesitated for a moment, her face showing a cold expression. She naturally didn't make a move
or show any intention of reaching out.
Preston locked eyes with her and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Cami, I don't want to lay a hand on you,
so it's better if you drink it obediently."
Camille stared blankly and said, "What you're doing is illegal."
"Am I afraid of breaking the law? Compared to the Simpson family, everything I've done is nothing. Do
you think the Simpson family is powerful in your eyes? Do you think they're the best people in this
world? But do you know what kind of people they really are? What have they actually done?"
As Preston spoke about the Simpson family, his eyes turned particularly cold, and his emotions were
clearly getting more and more agitated and out of control.
From his words, Camille caught a few key pieces of information.
She followed up, "What do you mean? What has the Simpson family done?"
Preston didn't answer directly. He just sneered, laughed, and said, "What have they done? What do
you think? Not a single person in the Simpson family is kind-hearted. Everything they do is just a
facade, Camille, don't think what you see is the truth."
Camille fell silent because she felt that Preston was deliberately teasing her curiosity by speaking this
way. So she chose to stay silent.
But when Camille didn't respond, he became even more agitated. He said, "Camille, cut ties with Ayan.
After all, you're already divorced now. If you want children, then take the child and leave. Let's go
abroad together, okay?"
Preston is acting like a lunatic, bringing up past topics again. Camille realizes that she truly doesn't
know this person anymore. Despite him being right in front of her, he feels distant, as if there's a vast
gap between them.
"Why should I say it? Camille, don't try to pry information out of me. Let me tell you the truth. I'm
prepared to go down together with the Simpson family. I want to take you away and make Ayan choose
between you and the Simpson Group."
Preston's sinister laughter fills the air, his face radiating a chilling aura. He squints his eyes at Camille
and says, "So be a good girl and drink this. You wouldn't want me to get rough with you, would you?"
His words are filled with threats. New chąpter avаilable oո Drąмanоvеls.cоm
Camille stares at him blankly, trying to figure out how to persuade him to spare her, but she can't come
up with any solutions. The more desperate she becomes, the harder it is for her to stay calm.
Camille feels extremely uneasy, and this uneasiness intensifies her fear. She tightly clasps her hands
together, her face filled with dread. She looks at Preston and says, "If I don't drink it, are you planning
to force it down my throat?"
Preston lowers his head, seemingly lost in thought. He doesn't immediately answer the question, his
expression remaining cold.
The two lock eyes, nearly half a minute passing in this tense silence until Preston finally speaks. "It's a
sleeping pill. I want to take you away from here, so I hope you cooperate a little. I know you don't want
to leave Timmy behind, so I'll take Timmy with us as well, okay?"
