My Ex-husband Begs Me Back
Chapter 1534: Endurance

Chapter 1534: Endurance

Camille remained silent, looking at Preston with indifference. There was a hint of displeasure in her eyes, but Preston didn't want her to respond with silence. He said, "Camille, tell me, is this what you really think?"

Camille knew Preston well and understood his temperament. She didn't want to directly respond to him or provoke his anger. She simply said, "Mr. Walker, these questions you're asking are really boring. We're all adults here, can we be more mature?"

Preston narrowed his eyes, his face turning cold, but his tone remained calm. He said, "Camille, I don't want it to be like this either, but what can I do? It's because I care about you that I act this way. I've given you all my emotions, whether it's friendship or love. But your response shouldn't be so indifferent. You don't even consider me in your heart, Camille, you can't treat me like this."

Camille furrowed her brows, looking at Preston in disbelief. His questioning left her puzzled. How could he speak so confidently? Didn't he have any self-reflection?

It wasn't her fault at all; it was his wishful thinking.

Honestly, she remembered his kindness and it was unforgettable. She tried to tell herself not to erase all the good because of one mistake or one bad incident. But what Preston gave her wasn't just a simple mistake or something bad; each time he targeted something that could ruin her reputation. If her resilience wasn't strong enough, she wouldn't be able to stand here and talk to him so easily.

So Camille genuinely disagreed with what Preston said from the bottom of her heart, even though she knew he wouldn't be pleased if she said it out loud. But Camille couldn't help herself and said, "You think I'm cold-hearted and that all the emotions and kindness you've given me were in vain. I can only apologize. I don't expect you to forgive me because I can't even do things that I ask of myself. But Preston, I hope you can think clearly. Being a person means not only being true to yourself but also being morally upright and kind."

Camille was reminding him not to do anything excessive, regardless of his intentions. She didn't want him to hurt more people.

But Camille's words were useless, as he would never listen to her. Not only could he not listen, but he also believed that Camille said these things out of fear for him going after Ayan.

This ignited Preston's emotions, and he glared at Camille with a fierce look. His voice became sharp as he said, "Camille, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You just want to help Ayan. In your eyes, i has always been Ayan. He doesn't do anything; he just needs to beckon with his finger and you immediately go running to him. And me? No matter how much I do, you don't even see it. You're really cruel to me. Your heart can be soft towards everyone except me. How can you be like this? Aren't you afraid..."

His emotions burst out like a floodgate being opened. In that moment, no one could stop his emotional outburst.

Camille was stunned by the scene and didn't want to have any conflict with him. She looked at him with indifference and a coldness in her eyes. She didn't say anything but waited for Preston to stop speaking before fully opening the car door and preparing to get in.

But of course, Preston wouldn't comply with her wishes. He reached out and pressed the car door, his voice cold as he said, "Are you so eager to leave after spending such a short time together?"

His tone remained the same, showing no signs of calming down. Camille didn't want to hear another word from him but also didn't want to anger him further. She simply said, "What do you want then? Haven't you said everything you wanted to say? If you haven't finished speaking, then continue!"

Camille sighed silently, feeling powerless. She didn't want to face Preston but also didn't want to provoke him into doing something regrettable.

However, Camille's indifference was too apparent, fully exposed in front of him. This was something he couldn't accept no matter what. Even though Camille had already put him on her blacklist, he still held high expectations for her. His inner softness and kindness were given to Camille, but he received no response in return. Instead, every time Camille unconditionally chose to stand by Ayan's side as his enemy, it constantly challenged his male pride.

He tightly grasped the car door handle, refusing to let Camille get in.

He looked at Camille's familiar face and remembered how he was willing to give her enough time to think things through before being with him. But now the result was that he had a child with Ayan. He thought that after letting her taste the bitterness of unrequited love, she would have the same thoughts and plans as him. But he didn't get anything.

Preston's hand exerted force on the car door handle, and Camille could clearly see the veins on the back of his hand bulging with restraint. In the next second, his voice followed suit as he spoke meaningfully, "Camille, have you ever thought that Ayan doesn't love you? He simply wants to use you to gain something or maintain his image as a good husband and father in front of others? He's not really like that because there are many better options around him. Can he truly resist their attraction?"

Camille didn't want to pay attention to Preston and simply glanced at him with indifference. As for his words, she knew that if she said nothing, he wouldn't stop.

She took a silent breath and casually replied, "Whatever. If he really is that kind of person, then so be it. How do you know that I'm not staying by his side for personal gain or money? Maybe I'm willing to endure this suffering for the sake of my child's future as the heir of the Simpson family or Simpson Group. So you don't need to persuade me anymore; I really don't care anymore. Just consider me sinking into this world of interests alone and don't try to convince me anymore."

Preston probably wanted to hear these words because Camille satisfied him. She hoped that he would finish listening and leave her alone.

In reality, it wasn't far from what Camille had thought because Ayan's bodyguard had come over. Seeing that Camille hadn't reacted for so long, he became worried and came over to check on her, only to see Preston.

The bodyguard immediately approached Camille with a guarded expression and looked at Preston. He said, "Madam!"

The bodyguard's tone was asking if Camille needed help?
