Chapter 1455 Shock

"No, the IP address is from the dark web abroad, so it's hard to trace who it is in the short term. Unless we can find something useful in the second start-up."

Camille nodded lightly and said, "Whatever, I'm not afraid at all. Even if the sky falls, you'll be there to support me, won't you?"

Camille really didn't care. This matter didn't harm her at all, and she wasn't afraid. That's why she wanted Ayan to handle it calmly, without giving any response or reaction. This way, those who wanted to see her in a bad light from behind the scenes wouldn't achieve their goal.

After finishing the glass noodle soup, they tidied up and went back to their room together.

They were too full from the meal, so going to sleep directly wasn't very comfortable. They decided to watch a movie to pass the time.

By the time the movie ended, it was already past midnight. The seemingly ordinary but addictively comfortable time spent together made both Camille and Ayan feel genuinely at ease.

The next day, Camille woke up to find that Ayan was already out. His biological clock was always punctual, so he had probably already started working at the Simpson Group.

The situation with the Armstrong family had naturally spread, given that it had trended many times, plus the criticism Camille faced for being distant from her parents. Daisy, who was working with the Simpson Group, was also aware of it.

Daisy didn't know when Ayan would be available, but she hadn't been doing well lately. That's why she decided to come to the Simpson Group to see if she could meet Ayan by chance.

Daisy arrived at the Simpson Group and still wanted to inquire from the front desk, just like last time. However, after the previous incident, everyone at the Simpson Group was now very cautious and wouldn't casually divulge any information.

Seeing this, Daisy felt helpless and thought about using favors, but the front desk still refused. They only said to Daisy, "Miss Daisy, I can help you make an appointment with Mr. Simpson if you wish, or you can contact Mr. Simpson or Kian directly for a quicker response."

The staff at the Simpson Group were in a dilemma about handling Daisy's presence. They couldn't afford to offend her due to her status, but it was also difficult not to offend her because not cooperating would lead to her dissatisfaction.

So, the employees at the Simpson Group were faced with the challenge of dealing with Daisy, and they had to put on a welcoming smile to accommodate her.

Meanwhile, they quickly informed Kian about Daisy's visit.

Upon learning this, Kian immediately informed Ayan and asked, "Mr. Simpson, should we let her come up?"

Lately, Daisy's relationship with Kerry was quite enigmatic. Following Ayan's advice, Kerry had been cold towards Daisy, which had made her unhappy. However, she hadn't severed ties completely and had chosen to focus her attention back on Ayan, hoping to accelerate their progress in this way.

Upon hearing this, Ayan nonchalantly narrowed his eyes and said in an indifferent tone, "There's no need for her to come up. You can go down, but there's no need to specifically look for her."

Kian understood Ayan's intent behind the words - to make it seem like he wasn't specifically addressing Daisy, thereby creating an image of an accidental encounter. This way, Daisy's feelings of disappointment would be even greater.

Kian agreed and quickly handled the matter.

A few minutes later, Daisy saw Kian in the lobby of the Simpson Group. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Today, she was accompanied by only one assistant, and neither spoke Chinese well. She had been given a translator by Ayan, but she had ignored the translator completely because she couldn't find the information she wanted through them.

Upon seeing Kian, Daisy immediately walked over to him, her voice filled with surprise and delight. "Kian!!!"

Kian pretended to not know she was there and acted busy as he walked past. It was a difficult situation, especially for a straightforward person like Kian who had no acting skills.

Kian pretended to be startled when he heard her voice and then pretended to remember, asking, "Miss Daisy?"

Daisy smiled and went straight to the point, asking, "Kian, where's Ayan? Isn't he with you?"

"Miss Daisy, Mr. Simpson is the president, and I am just a secretary," Kian said softly.

Daisy said, "That's not what I meant."

"Miss Daisy, please don't get upset. I understand that Miss Daisy didn't mean that. Are you here to see Mr. Simpson?" Kian asked softly.

Daisy seemed hesitant. She naturally had no business to discuss; she just simply wanted to see him. But she couldn't tell the truth because that would definitely not lead to a meeting with her.

Feeling very hesitant, Daisy subconsciously bit her lip, her voice slightly hoarse as she said, "Um, it's a work-related matter. Is he available right now?"

"Is it about the collaboration between Tillery's Corporation and Simpson Group?" Kian asked.

"Yes," Daisy confirmed.

Kian watched Daisy lie and didn't expose her. Instead, he calmly said, "Miss Daisy, hasn't Mr. Kerry mentioned this to you?"

"What did he say?"

"Miss Daisy, the thing is, we've already reached an understanding with Mr. Kerry regarding this collaboration. Our project team is in charge of all matters and will be dealing with Mr. Kerry directly. So, it might not be appropriate for you to discuss this matter with Mr. Simpson, considering Mr. Kerry is in charge of the project."

While Mr. Tillery initially said Daisy was in charge of the project, it was only a nominal role. After all, Daisy didn't understand or know anything. If she were to take charge of such a big project, the consequences would be unpredictable. Even if Schulz was willing, the higher-ups and shareholders at Tillery's Corporation wouldn't agree.

So, Kian used Kerry as the reason to shut down Daisy's attempts to seek Ayan's audience. This situation was indeed not false; it just hadn't been disclosed to Daisy.

Daisy was shocked to hear this, but it didn't matter. The situation had been settled, and no accident could change it.

Daisy's expression froze, and Kian continued, "If Miss Daisy has any thoughts or suggestions regarding the project, I'm afraid she'll need to discuss it with Mr. Kerry privately."

Daisy didn't say anything and just wore a stony expression on her face.

The awkward atmosphere lasted for about five or six seconds, during which neither of them spoke.

Observing this, Kian knew he couldn't let the conversation end on such a note. "Miss Daisy, do you want to speak with Mr. Kerry first?"

Daisy's demeanor remained cool and calm, and she replied, "I will talk to Kerry about work matters. But I'm surprised that I came to the Simpson Group and he still doesn't want to see me?"
