My Ex-husband Begs Me Back
Chapter 783 Good Enough

Fletcher was very unpleasant, and he glared angrily at Ayan. "Youdon?? t know when to stop such nonsense? What do you mean by“anything shady'? Your grandfather and I have been running SimpsonGroup properly for so many years. Don't tarnish our reputation withbaseless accusations.”

Ayan smiled lightly. “I was just asking. You and Grandpa have managedSimpson Group for so long without ever doing anything to harmothers?"

Fletcher furrowed his brow tightly, still not looking happy.

"Simpson Group is a business, not a place for violence," Fletcher said."What do you mean by harm?"

Ayan felt helpless; both his father and grandfather seemed very strict intheir speech, making it difficult to get through to them.

So he changed tactics and said calmly, "Has the Simpson family everdone anything wrong to anyone else?"

Although his tone sounded light-hearted, he gave off an extremelyserious vibe.

This made Fletcher also become serious instantly; his displeasedexpression gradually became calm as he silently pondered beforespeaking slowly: "Anything wrong?"

"HMM."

'Did something happen?

"Now I'm not sure, I just guess, so I need you to give me an answer. Ihave tried to ask Grandpa. I don't know it is really no or Grandpadisguised too well."

Fletcher looked at Ayan with a stern face and shook his head gently:"Our family has not wronged anyone. Even after all these years, I cantell you with certainty, no."

"Do you know Elijah? The former secretary of Armstrong Corp?Besides knowing that he was Armstrong Corp's secretary, do you haveany other impressions of him?" Ayan asked.

"What other impressions are there?" Fletcher asked back. "Are yousaying this matter is related to him?"

"Sort of," Ayan replied vaguely.

Ayan, of course, was not as tight-lipped with Fletcher as he had beenwith Old Simpson.

Fletcher still needs to know some things. As for the old Simpson, it isnaturally because he is old, so it is inconvenient to let the old Simpsonknow and worry about many things.

Fletcher furrowed his brow and thought carefully before saying, “It'sdefinitely a lie if I say I have no impression of him. But my impression ofhim is only related to the Armstrong family. Although we do run intoeach other somewhere else, his attitude has always been that of asecretary."

Ayan nodded slightly and spoke in a lukewarm tone, “Is there anythingelse besides that?"

"Not at the moment.”

"Dad, I suspect that Preston knows Elijah and their relationship runsdeep. And Preston is not just Camille's friend; perhaps what he's doingis directly aimed at our Simpson family."

Ayan revealed more information in order to make Fletcher feel moresuspicious and conflicted. If Fletcher was hiding something, then thiswas the only way to get him to tell the truth.

They locked eyes with each other. Fletcher's emotions were quite flat;there wasn't much emotion displayed on his face as he said, "Do youthink I would be like your grandfather who tells you half-truths?"

“I never thought that," Ayan replied.

Fletcher continued speaking: "The Simpson family hasn't done anythingwrong towards anyone else but it doesn't mean others won't have theirown thoughts or opinions about us. Everyone only considers thingsfrom their own perspective instead of others’, so if you want to replace outwhat exactly happened with Preston and Elijah, you'll have to start byinvestigating them."

"Okay, I know what to do now. But if it's convenient for you grandpa-wise... you could try probing around for me too!" Ayan suggested.

“I won't probe around because even if I did ask your grandfather aboutsomething he didn't want to say... not even the entire Simpson familycould force him into talking,” Fletcher explained calmly before addingreassuringly: "But don?? t worry. Your grandfather wouldn?? t doanything wrong towards anyone else anyway, so put your mind atease."

Those words from Fletcher shutting down Ayan?? s thoughtscompletely on this matter--he didn?? t push any further.

It was still early when Ayan left the Simpsons’ mansion with Timmy.He drove while Timmy sat securely strapped into his safety seat for achild in Talia?? s car since Ayan?? s car didn?? t have one installedyet.

They arrived directly at the museum without notifying Camillebeforehand since she was still working.

Only after they reached did Ayan call her.

Upon receiving his call, Camille was surprised and asked, "Why areyou calling at this time? Is everything okay?"

"Come downstairs, I'm at the museum entrance.”

"You're here?"

Camille was taken aback and stood up from her chair.

As she walked outside, she asked, "Why so sudden?"

"Just come down. I'm just the driver," he replied.

Who could he be driving for?

Camille looked puzzled and thought he must be joking around.

It wasn't until she saw Ayan driving Talia's car that she had a slightsuspicion that Timmy might be with him.

She walked over quickly and opened the back door to see Timmysitting in his child safety seat. She exclaimed, "Timmy!"

Timmy also saw Camille and clapped his hands asking for a hug whileshouting "Mommy! Mommy!"

Camille was thrilled. She quickly unbuckled Timmy's safety belt andtook him out of the car with a big smile on her face. She said happily,"How did you get here? Did you miss Mommy?"

Timmy hugged Camille closely. Ayan also showed an enviousexpression on his face.

Ayan cleared his throat lightly and said calmly, "Can you two get in thecar now? Don't forget there is still a driver here."

Camille laughed before opening the door to sit inside with Timmy by herside. She said to Timmy: "Quickly thank daddy! If daddy didn?? t bringyou to replace mommy today then mommy wouldn?? t have seen you."Timothy didn't have many words but simply said: "Daddy... thank you!"Ayan finally felt satisfied as he gently pinched Timothy?? s cheek.While holding Timothy in her arms looking towards, Camille asked"Why did you suddenly bring him over from the Simpson Mansion?""Don't tell me that it wasn?? t what you wanted? Bring him over tonightso we can all stay together at Maple Leaves Mansion."

"Really?" Camile nodded excitedly while kissing Timothy?? s hand fullof joy!

However, she was still working during office hours; there were stillsome time left before work ended. So after spending some time withTimothy, she had to go back upstairs again .

She turned towards Ayan asking:"But I haven't finished work yet. Socan I trouble you to take care of him for a while?"

"Sure, I'll take him out nearby to a children's park for a while. When itgets closer to your off-work hour, I will come pick both of u up. Howabout that?"

Ayan's arrangements were well thought out, the epitome of a perfectdad. Camille had never seen this side of him before and found itrefreshing.

Camille smiled lightly, nodding in agreement. “Thank you for this," shesaid.

Ayan was quick to reply, “If you really think I'm doing all the work here,then maybe you should be a little nicer to me."

“I'm not nice enough?" Camille asked.

“You're nice enough but have yet to give me a title,” Ayan replied coolly.This wasn't the first time he had brought up the subject.
