My Ex-husband Begs Me Back -
Chapter 776 Lovely
Sienna responded in a low voice, "Sorry, Zoey did contact me and I toldher your address for the event tonight."
"Hmm, at least you're honest,” Mario's face was as cold as ice and hedidn't say anything else.
They arrived back at the company and the driver got out early. Mariosaid indifferently, "Sienna, don't waste your time. Since I brought youback to Flento City, I have no intention of letting you leave again. Youbetter adapt quickly to my presence because I'm going to announce ourrelationship publicly within the King family. We'll get married this year."Without waiting for Sienna’s response, he had already pushed open thecar door and left.
His words shocked Sienna; she couldn't calm down for a long time.Mario wasn't just talking or negotiating with her; he was informing herthat he had already made his decision.
Sienna didn't go upstairs with him but instead got out of the car in thegarage and took a taxi back to her apartment.
This news made it impossible for her to calm down.
She had to do something about it but what could she do?
After Camille talked on the phone with Sienna last night, she keptthinking about their conversation. During breakfast with Ayan thismorning, she tried subtly asking about Rex's recent situation.
Camille asked mostly if Rex had been dating anyone recently or if therewere any women around him.
But Camille asked too many questions which annoyed Ayan whoasked: "Why are you so concerned about Rex?"
Camille hesitated before explaining: "I'm trying to help Sienna replace outmore information.”
"Why doesn't she come herself?"
"She has things going on in Flento City, so if I don?? t help her, whowill?"
"Regarding Mario?"
Camille nodded
Ayan smiled faintly: “To deal with someone like Mario one must be eventougher than him; only by being stronger, can she make him wary.""But how can Sienna be stronger than him?" After all The King Familyis behind Mario!
Camille pursed her lips, looking worried while staring at Ayan asking:"Just tell me if Rex is seeing someone."
“I don?? t know. 1?? m not interested in his private life," replied Ayancalmly.
"Aren?? t you friends?" Camille couldn?? t help but complain - aren?? tfriends supposed care about each other?? s private lives?
Ayan looked up meeting Camile?? s gaze, saying firmly: "Why shouldwe be friends? But since 17? m not his mother, then why would I careabout his personal life?"
“Then why don't you invite him out for lunch with us? You can treat!""Camille, are you asking me to go out and have dinner with anotherman and pay for it myself? Do you think that's fair?"
"Well, do you want to or not?" Camille's eyes threatened. If she washolding a mirror in her hand, she would replace she looked like someoneright now.
In the end, Ayan agreed naturally. Of course, he knew that Camille wasonly doing this for Sienna. Seeing how worried she was and knowingthat he hadn't seen Rex in a while either, having lunch togetherwouldn't hurt.
The three of them met at Darkmoor at noon.
Rex came alone naturally.
Rex couldn't help but ask when Ayan suddenly invited him out to eatwith his wife: "Why did you suddenly want to have dinner with me?Ayan, do you miss me?"
"You're thinking too much.” Ayan denied indifferently before gettingstraight to the point: "I wanted to ask if you've been dating any newgirlfriends lately."
Rex frowned subconsciously and looked towards Camille beside himwith a hint of laughter in his eyes: "Are you concerned about me somuch?"
Camille was also shocked by what Ayan said; this guy did it onpurpose?
Camille awkwardly smiled and said lightly: "Maybe he cares moreabout you than I do.”
Rex laughed while Ayan continued speaking: "Well then are we friendsor not?"
"Of course we are friends,” Rex replied. "But I'm just shy so give mesome personal space!"
Ayan squinted his eyes slightly and said indifferently: "Okay then thismeal is on your tab."
“I'd be happy to treat Camille but Mr. Simpson, do I need to treat aswell?"
"She needs your treat?" Ayan snorted lightly.
The two bickered back-and-forth causing the atmosphere betweenthem become lively again.
As for the question earlier about whether Rex had a girlfriend or not -he never answered directly in the end; obviously he already guessedthat it was something Camille wanted to know. And who was behind herback, of course he understood clearly himself too.
During their conversation over lunch, Rex talked about work-relatedtopics which left no room for Camilla?? s input, so she just ate quietlywhile scrolling through videos on her phone boredly.
Finally, she turned her head around sneakily took a side profile pictureof Rex without anyone noticing and sent it over Sienna saying: "Don??t worry, he is still single. You keep going."
Sienna quickly replied:"OK."
Without saying much else, Camille thought that Ayan was busy, so shedidn't continue speaking. After finishing their meal, Rex went to pay thebill and Camille took the opportunity to say to Ayan, “Is it not a bit unfairfor him to pay? After all, we invited him out. It feels like we're takingadvantage of him."
“If he doesn't pay then I'll have to. You're thinking about him but whatabout me? He's a single guy who can eat his fill without worrying aboutanyone else, but I have a wife and a kid to support. It's not easy forme," Ayan said as if it were true. Especially when he mentioned ??wife?? in such a natural way. Camille was momentarily stunned beforesaying lightly, "Don't be ridiculous.”
Ayan smirked and reached out his hand to hold hers as they waited forRex's return before leaving Darkmoor together.
When they got back to the car, Rex suggested that they play basketballtogether in a few days since Ayan had been busy lately and hadn'tbeen able to hang out with them much. Everyone in their circle hadbeen speculating whether or not he was whipped by his wife.
Ayan wasn't bothered by these rumors at all; with an attractive facedevoid of any emotion he replied coolly: “I can?? t make decisions onmy own now; you should ask my boss if she approves.”
His boss stared at him blankly for two or three seconds before finallyunderstanding what he meant.
Rex laughed and turned towards Camille: "Mrs. Simpson here hasdone quite well! If you'd married him earlier, maybe I could work withyou instead of being bullied by this guy all these years!"
Camille smiled sheepishly and gently patted Ayan: “Stop talkingnonsense! You're making me look bad."
"Aren?? t you supposed to look successful?" asked Ayan teasingly.“Look how much Rex admires you!"
Rex looked enviously at her while wondering when his significantwoman would come back.
"Cami," said Rex again after getting into the car,"Come play basketballwith us! I'm mainly inviting you rather than Ayan. It would be an honorfor us if you could join us."
Camille nodded her head in agreement: "Okay."
After watching Rex drive away in his car, Camille turned towards Ayanand asked:"Do you think that something is different about Rex?""Camille, I'm warning you now; if you talk about other men in front ofme again, I will get angry."Ayan?? s voice became low and threateningas he spoke.
Camille glanced at him, her eyebrows furrowed as she asked in a lowvoice, "Why are you angry? Timmy is also another man. Are you alsoangry?"
Ayan pursed his lips and remained silent, clearly not wanting to answer.She continued, "Mr. Simpson, are you really angry?" She smiled lightlyand reached out to gently pinch his chin, turning his face towards herlike he did earlier. She said, "You look cute when you're angry. Whatshould I do? I want to tease you..."
She finished speaking and even winked at him with a hint ofplayfulness in her eyes. This made Ayan almost grit his teeth as heleaned over and kissed her until they both ran out of breath beforemuttering hoarsely, "You really want to drive me crazy!"
