"So why didn't he do that?"
"I don't know either. I can't figure it out at the moment, but I think he must have something that
confuses me. He wants to use Timmy to threaten me." Camille became more and more confused as
she thought about it, but she had truly seen Timmy with her own eyes, and that was unquestionably
real.
Camille shook her head. "Forget it. It gives me a headache to think about it. Let's see what she's going
to do next."
Sienna nodded in agreement. "Okay, but you have to tell me right away. Don't keep anything from me."
"Yeah, I know."
"Well, focus on your work for now. We'll go out for dinner later."
"Aren't you meeting Rex? I don't want to disturb your time together. That would be a huge sin." Camille
quickly refused.
Sienna frowned immediately. "What's the rush? Come eat at my restaurant. You're alone at home
anyway, so just think of it as keeping me company, alright?"
"No, really no. You go eat with Rex. After all, Rex has helped me so much. I'll go back to the Simpson's
mansion and spend time with Timmy tonight."
"Are you really going to spend time with Timmy?"
"Yeah, really." Camille nodded earnestly and said, "I'll stay at the Simpson's mansion tonight.
Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll worry about me being alone at home and want to come and keep me
company. I don't want to offend Rex, nor do I want to be a third wheel."
Sienna immediately snorted. "So you're intentionally avoiding me, huh?"
"That's not it, mainly I really miss Timmy. Besides, since Ayan is not at home, I'll go back to the
Simpson's mansion to be with Timmy!"
"Fine, I won't force you, but remember, don't see me as your last resort. I can accompany you anytime.
Rex can understand that, after all, the time I spend with you is minimal compared to the time I spend
with him. You are the most important woman to me, and he is the most important man to me. These
two things don't conflict at all, okay?"
Sienna explained her inner thoughts seriously and in detail, looking at Camille with sincerity in every
word.
Camille gratefully nodded. "Okay, don't worry, I understand all that."
Sienna was satisfied after hearing that and didn't continue to push Camille.
It was still early, so everyone continued to busy themselves with their work. They ordered lunch and ate
it in the company, and after that, they continued with their tasks.
Ayan didn't reply to the message until the afternoon. He said, "I had a meeting after waking up, so I've
been busy."
Camille replied, "Do your thing, we can talk later after you're done."
Camille was also busy at the moment. She had to prepare many things for the project she was
collaborating on with Ayan and the Nores Group. Even though she had Ayan as a backdoor, she still
needed to ensure that everything that needed to be prepared was done properly, so as not to give From NôvelDrama.Org.
anyone a reason to gossip.
Therefore, the two of them didn't chat much and continued with their respective tasks.
Under the same sky, Preston was lying on the bed in the orphanage director's resting room, holding
Ayan's itinerary sent to him by Camille.
Since being called in by the police for questioning, he had been hiding in the orphanage, living in the
director's resting room to avoid raising any suspicions.
The environment here was relatively decent, but a bit small. He had to rely on the director to bring him
meals three times a day. The days were becoming monotonous.
This was the package the director had just personally brought back, and Preston couldn't wait to open
it.
Holding the itinerary in his hand, he certainly wouldn't immediately believe it.
He casually picked up his phone and dialed the number of the Simpson Group secretary's office.
Following the schedule on the itinerary, he probed, "I'd like to arrange a meeting with Mr. Simpson. I'm
from the Nores Group project department, and Mr. Nores would like to discuss the project with Mr.
Simpson."
The response from the secretary's office was, "Mr. Simpson's schedule is quite tight these days, so it's
currently difficult to make an appointment. If Mr. Nores is in a hurry, he can contact Mr. Reid. Mr. Reid
will arrange a meeting time between Mr. Nores and Mr. Simpson."
"Is Mr. Simpson's schedule really that tight?"
"Yes, because Simpson Group has many projects, Mr. Simpson's schedule is quite packed. So, at the
moment, we can't give you a specific time. If Mr. Nores is in a hurry, it would be more convenient to
contact Mr. Reid directly."
"Alright, I understand what you mean. Thank you. By the way, is Mr. Simpson currently at the
company?" Preston continued to probe.
On the other end of the line, the secretary's office replied, "Yes, Mr. Simpson is currently in a meeting."
"When will the meeting end?"
"I'm sorry, the president's schedule is confidential, and we can't inform you. If Mr. Nores is in a hurry, it's
best to contact Mr. Reid!"
The secretary's office was able to be with Ayan almost all the time, working closely by his side.
Naturally, they were professional and carefully selected by Ayan, so it was impossible for any flaws to
be exposed in just one or two sentences.
Preston snorted lightly, and a surge of motivation filled him. He narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled with
intense calculations. Since fate had given him this opportunity, he would definitely make good use of it.
The assistant, of course, had informed everyone in the secretary's office, so as soon as the call came
in, the assistant immediately informed Camille.
At the same time, with some concern, the assistant asked, "Madam, is something wrong? Should I
report to Mr. Reid and take some precautionary measures?"
Camille calmly replied, "Not for now. They are abroad and quite far away. Even if something were to
happen, they couldn't possibly flash back to Hance City. So, if anything happens, I will trouble you."

"Madam, rest assured. Mr. Simpson has already given instructions, and what you've instructed is the
most important."
Camille expressed her gratitude and then instructed the assistant that if they receive a similar call, they
should remain vigilant and inform her immediately.
With everything taken care of, the call ended.
Camille also put down her phone and remained silent, sitting quietly on the couch without moving.
Preston had started to take action, and she kept reminding herself in her mind to be fully alert. She
wanted to see what exactly Preston was planning to do.
