Chapter 823: Penetration
"Enough, I don't want to hear you say these things. Have you forgottenabout Rex so quickly? Aren't you afraid he'll replace out what you're doingnow?"
"What should I be afraid of? We've already separated. Besides, isn'tthis what you wanted? So why do you use him as an excuse to evademy words?"
Sienna coldly smirked, her expression unusually bleak.
She looked at Mario, whose face was extremely ugly, without anyreaction. She told Mario, "Brother, I'm tired. If you have nothing else tosay, I'm going to rest."
Without waiting for Mario's response, she turned and went upstairs.Mario didn't follow her. He just stood there and watched her go in, untilhe couldn't see any figure anymore. Then he took out his phone andmade a call, saying, "Find out who the man is that Sienna has been incontact with."
Mario had an unhappy expression on his face as he walked towards hiscar and drove away.
From their conversation, Rex naturally understood the general idea.Of course, he also heard clearly the words she said that had nothing todo with him. Although he understood the meaning behind her words, hecouldn't help but feel uncomfortable listening to them.
However, the smile on the corner of his mouth grew deeper anddeeper, eventually becoming uncontrollable.
He stayed in the car for a while, making sure that Sienna wouldn't goout again and that no one would come to see her before driving away.He thought he had concealed it very well, but he didn't know thatCamille had already told her about his arrival in Flento City a long timeago.
Naturally, she also knew that since he had come to Flento City, hewouldn't miss secretly watching her.
But neither of them would worry about possible misunderstandingsbecause they had made an agreement.
Although they didn't contact each other, they constantly kept each otherin mind.
Sienna stood on the balcony, watching the black car's headlights lightup before returning to her room.
She sent Camille a voice message, saying, "Darling, thank you! I feelso energized now. I think I can fight for another five hundred years. I'mfully charged.”
Camille replied quickly, saying, "You're welcome! Thank your charger!"Seeing the word “charger,” Sienna couldn't help but laugh.
Her mood also became exceptionally good.
However, her behavior displeased Mario. Starting the next day, workinghours were extended, and she was allowed to leave only after Mariopermitted.
This forced control made Sienna feel extremely oppressed, but sheendured it silently without any complaints or resistance.
This silence didn't mean she truly accepted it. It could also mean thatshe was accumulating some kind of strength, ready to launch at anymoment.
Rex returned to Hance City the next afternoon.
Ayan, of course, couldn't personally go to pick him up, but he stillarranged for a driver to go to the airport and pick him up.
Then he was taken directly to Simpson Group.
Rex said on the way, "Let's go home and take a shower and rest for abit," but Ayan's driver said, "Mr. Baxter, I'm truly sorry, but Mr. Simpsoninsisted that I bring you to Simpson Group. Otherwise, it would be amistake on my part. I hope you can understand.”
Rex didn't make things difficult for the driver and simply had hissecretary get off halfway.
Then he followed the driver to Simpson Group.
He couldn't help but comment, "Ayan is really something!"
The driver couldn't help but twitch his lips, refraining from laughingoutright. If he did, he might lose his job.
Upon arriving at Simpson Group, the driver escorted Rex all the way tothe office, behaving as if he feared Rex would try to escape.
In the elevator, Rex couldn't help but ask, “What else did Ayan arrangefor you to do? If I try to run away, will someone immediately come andstop me?"
"Mr. Baxter, you've misunderstood. Mr. Simpson is just concerned thatyou'll be alone in the elevator, so he instructed me to accompany you,"the driver replied.
"Cut the nonsense. I know who Ayan is,” Rex didn't believe it, havingknown Ayan for so many years, they understood each other very well.However, his guess was correct. The driver simply didn't dare to say itout loud. Ayan instructed him that if Rex dared to run away halfway, heshould yell, "Stop the thief!"
Although Ayan gave such instructions, the driver didn't dare to offendRex. After all, Rex was the CEO of Ward Group. If they offended him,there would be consequences.
The driver escorted Rex to the office door, knocked on it, and thenopened it for Rex to enter.
Ayan was in the middle of briefing Kian on work when Rex walked inand accused Ayan, "Mr. Simpson, you've gone a bit too far, haven'tyou?"
Ayan glanced at him with indifference, not sensing any excessivenessin his actions. He replied in a cold tone, "Speak up. What do you wantto tell me in person?”
Rex refused to speak directly. Instead, he walked over to the sofa, satdown casually, and then said, "Ayan, if you don't treat me to a mealtoday, I won't say it. So, it's up to you."
“You really won't say it?"
"Yes, I really won't."
"Fine, then don't say it. Kian, see the guest out.”
Ayan wasn't joking at all. After saying this, he lowered his gaze andstarted working, showing no sign of hesitation or reluctance as Rexprepared to leave. He treated Rex as if he were invisible.
The feeling of being ignored completely stunned Rex. He looked atKian, standing by the door, both helpless and dumbfounded. Heshrugged and said, "Kian, look at this. Is he even human? I mean, youwork under this kind of demon. Are you really okay?"
Kian chuckled softly, walked in, poured a cup of coffee for Rex, andplaced it in front of him with a slight smile. He said, "Mr. Baxter, if youhave something to say, please go ahead. Otherwise, Mr. Simpson canendure until you can't hold it anymore without any wavering."
After Kian finished speaking, he quietly exited the office.
Rex was left speechless for several seconds, then a faint smileappeared on his face. He had made up his mind and immediately gotup, walking towards Ayan's desk, his attitude and voice completelydifferent from before. He said softly, "Ayan, I was just joking with youearlier. Since I promised to help you investigate this matter, I'mdefinitely on your side. Whatever I replace out, I will tell you without anyreservations.”
Ayan didn't make a sound or respond, just continued to focus on thedocuments in his hands. Rex wasn't deterred by this coldness anddisregard. He continued, "Ayan, I've been investigating people relatedto Preston. Care to guess what I found?"
