Chapter 849: Everlasting
After getting off the plane, Camille and Ayan went to collect theirluggage. During that time, Ayan went to the restroom, leaving Camillealone, waiting for their luggage. Another person was also waiting fortheir luggage.
Camille didn't notice until the person called out to her.
"Miss Armstrong?!" The man's voice was unexpectedly gentle in thisnoisy environment, catching Camille off guard.
Camille followed the voice and saw Jordan standing not far away. Hehad a gentle face and a faint smile. She immediately waved in greeting,but she didn't expect Jordan to approach her after collecting hisluggage.
Jordan said, "What a coincidence! Are you here in Dane City for a trip?"Camille nodded slightly, "Sort of! And you? Are you here to have funtoo?"
He forced a smile, "I'm here to handle some matters. If you're available,let's have a meal together?"
Just as Jordan finished speaking, Ayan returned.
His voice sounded first, "Cami?!"
He had just come out of the restroom and saw a man standing next toCamille. The man stood tall and had a smile on his face. It seemed likethey knew each other. As it was a man, Ayan instinctively frowned, hiseyes showing a touch of displeasure and indifference.
It wasn't until he approached that he realized the man was Jordan.Their gazes met, and they naturally recognized each other.
Seeing him, Jordan's eyes also revealed a hint of surprise, especiallywhen he saw Ayan standing next to Camille.
Ayan lightly opened his thin lips and said, "Long time no see. What acoincidence!”
Jordan also smiled faintly, "Yeah, what a coincidence.”
He didn't ask about Camille's relationship with Ayan, but he already hada rough guess in his mind. He wasn't a gossiping person and wasn'tcurious about other people's private matters or secrets.
While the two men calmly greeted each other, Camille's confusiongrew. She never expected that the two of them would know each other.At that moment, Jordan received his luggage. He looked at Camille andAyan and spoke softly, "Miss Armstrong, Ayan, I'll take my leave now.We'll meet again if we have the chance.”
Camille nodded and said goodbye, while Ayan remained silent, onlyraising his head.
After Jordan left, Ayan took Camille's hand, and with his other hand, hepushed the luggage towards the exit.
They didn't discuss Jordan further. When they arrived outside theairport, Sophia was already waiting in the car.
Seeing Camille and Ayan, Sophia immediately got out of the car andwaved to them, "Hello!"
Sophia approached them. She got along well with Camille andimmediately took Camille's hand and walked towards the car. OnlyAyan was left to handle the luggage.
Sophia opened the backseat and took out a bouquet of roses, handingit to Camille, "Welcome to Dane City. I hope you'll fall in love with it."Camille felt delighted by the ceremonial welcome, her face beamingwith a smile. She said, "Thank you."
Sophia's gracefulness was evident in every move she made. She said,"Don't be so polite. Get in the car quickly. I've already made areservation at a restaurant. We'll drop off your luggage at the hotel firstand then go for a meal.”
Camille and Sophia sat in the backseat while Ayan took the driver'sseat.
Sophia thoughtfully opened the GPS for Ayan, "So, Mr. Simpson, thankyou for being our driver. As the host, I'll accompany Camille."
Ayan had no objections. He opened the driver's door, sat down, andpressed the accelerator, driving away from the airport.
The three of them returned to the hotel first and dropped off theirluggage before heading to the restaurant.
It was just the three of them for lunch today, so the atmosphere wasrelaxed and casual.
During the meal, Sophia mentioned Austin's situation.
She said, "Norman Group in Campole has caused quite a stir. Austincan't be found, and the company is likely to face a thoroughinvestigation. With all the turmoil, Norman Group is definitely in greatcrisis.”
Sophia said this while looking at Ayan, as if assessing something?Ayan pretended not to notice Sophia's intentions and respondedindifferently, "Hmm, so what? It doesn't have much to do with ourproject, does it?"
Sophia was momentarily taken aback, caught off guard by Ayan'sretort.
But she continued to stare at Ayan, her probing evident in her words.This made Ayan's gaze turn cold, and his tone displeased as he said,"If you have something to say, just say it. Stop staring at me like that.My wife is right here!"
Sophia, being spoken to like that by Ayan, instinctively frowned andlooked towards Camille, who was sipping soup beside them. Camillehad a bewildered expression, glancing back and forth between the two.Sophia quickly explained, "Camille, don't listen to his nonsense. I wasjust lost in thought. Please don't misunderstand me."
Sophia then turned to Ayan and said, "Ayan, you're trying to sowdiscord between Camille and me. Let me tell you, the friendshipbetween girls is delicate. If I were to stir up trouble in front of Camille,your days wouldn't be easy."
Ayan let out a light hum, completely unconcerned.
Camille smiled faintly and looked at Sophia, “It's okay, I didn'tmisunderstand. You two can talk."
Camille didn't involve herself in their conversation. After all, it was work-related, and she didn't want to interfere or express any opinions. Shehad come this time simply to have fun with Ayan.
Sophia raised an eyebrow at Ayan, her eyes carrying a hint ofprovocation, completely different from her previous infatuation with him.She said, "Did you hear that? Camille won't misunderstand me, so stoptrying to sow discord between us."
Ayan ignored her, just picked up picked up a piece of fish for Camille,placing it in her bowl gently. His tone was gentle as he said, "Havemore fish. It's a specialty of Dane City. If you like it, we can arrange fora cook to make it for you when we return to Hance City."
Listening to this, Sophia felt her teeth ache. She was extremelyfortunate to have realized that something was between them and cuther losses in time; otherwise, she would be the only one getting hurt inthe end.
She clicked her tongue a couple of times and said lightly, “I shouldhave left this meal for the two of you. I'm just an unnecessary thirdwheel."
"Well, you can leave now if you want." Ayan responded without any hintof politeness.
His response made Sophia's expression even more unpleasant, andshe glared at Ayan with complete anger and indignation. Camille,seeing this, couldn't help but want to laugh a little, but she immediatelysaid, "Sophia, he's always like this. Don't mind him."
“You should say a little less. We're in Sophia's territory now, and I'm stillwaiting for her to show me around!" Camille looked at Ayan, notknowing what had gotten into him. Whenever he encountered Sophia,he became like fire, completely without restraint.
After Camille spoke, Ayan fell silent. Sophia knew that, at this moment,it was Camille who held the most influence on him.
As long as Camille was pleased, what Ayan thought or did didn't matteranymore.
Sophia raised her juice glass and tapped it against Camille's. She said,“Indeed, you're the better one. Here's to our everlasting friendship, andI hope you always have a bigger say than Ayan."
After the toast, Sophia finished her drink in one gulp, while Camille justtook a sip.
Overall, the meal was enjoyable, despite some small incidents. Theywere just playful banter, and it didn't lead to any real embarrassment.After the meal, it was still early, so Sophia suggested taking a strollaround Dane City with the two of them.
Camille had no objections. After all, Sophia had suggested it, so shenaturally agreed.
However, Ayan declined, saying, "I'm tired. Let's talk about it tomorrow.Take us back to the hotel.”
"Do you think I'm a chauffeur?"
Sophia huffed lightly, but Ayan had already taken Camille's hand andsat in the backseat.
Camille looked at Ayan and didn't sense any particular emotions in hisexpression, but she still asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"
