Chapter 834: Surprise
When Camille heard the man's voice, she instantly turned her head tolook at him. She stared at Ayan for a few seconds, her eyes wideningslightly, and her expression becoming somewhat flustered. "No," shesaid.
Ayan crossed his arms in front of his chest, his gaze calm and collectedas he looked at her. The look in his eyes seemed to be telling Camillenot to pretend, as if he had already guessed everything.
Camille didn't want to look at him. She directly avoided his gaze, closedthe drawer, and stopped looking. She pretended to search around, andfinally took out two pairs of socks. She said, “You didn't help me packsocks. I want to bring two pairs.”
After saying that, she walked past Ayan without looking at him andstuffed the two pairs of socks into her suitcase.
This episode passed quickly, and Camille's embarrassment didn't lastlong.
The driver took the two of them to the airport, and along the way, Ayanheld her hand and took care of her.
They had dinner on the plane, and since it was a nearly three-hourflight, after they finished eating, Ayan found a newly released movie forthem to watch together.
Shortly after the movie ended, the plane landed.
Ayan had already arranged for a car to pick them up, and they weretaken directly to the hotel they were staying at.
After putting down their luggage, it wasn't too late. Camille took ashower, changed into fresh clothes, and put on a light makeup. Then,she finally dialed Sienna's number.
She hadn't told Sienna beforehand that she was coming, as they hadonly discussed coming to Flento City last night, and now she wasalready here.
Wasn't this surprise surprising enough?
Camille had already started imagining Sienna's reaction when she sawher. She must be very surprised and happy, right?
Sienna answered the phone, her voice sounding a bit tired. "What'sup?"
Camille asked, "What's wrong? You don't sound very happy!"
“You're not here with me, how can I be happy?"
"Is that so?"
“Do I sound like I'm lying to you?" Sienna gave a light snort, her faceshowing extreme displeasure. She said, "Just say it, why did you callme? Are you going to tell me about you and Ayan and make meenvious again?"
“I'm not that kind of person.” Camille smiled faintly. Ayan was sitting onthe other side and didn't disturb her phone call, but his gaze had beenfixed on her the whole time. Camille felt a bit shy being watched,furrowed her brows slightly, gave him an annoyed glance, and thenturned away to give him her back. She said softly, “Where are you rightnow? Are you outside or back at your apartment?"
Sienna replied, "I just arrived at my apartment building.”
"Just got back?"
"Yeah." Sienna frowned, feeling something unusual about Camille'schattering. She asked, "Why are you asking so many questions? Doyou have some ulterior motive?"
Camille: "Don’t misunderstand me, I just want to give you a surprise.I've prepared a gift for you, and it should be delivered by a couriersoon. It would be best if you quickly go upstairs, take a shower, andchange into a different outfit to welcome the arrival of the gift.Otherwise, the courier will record a video for me, and if I see youlooking messy, I'll definitely laugh at you. Maybe I'll even send it directlyto Rex, and then your image will be completely ruined. But don't blameme for that, I already reminded you, right?"
Sienna asked somewhat skeptically, "Are you serious?"
"Do I look like I'm joking? Let me check the time... hmm... it should takearound half an hour, maybe a bit more. Should you have enough time?"After Camille finished speaking, she stood up, and Ayan immediatelyfollowed suit. They walked out of the hotel, heading towards theelevator.
Camille said, "Alright, I'm going to have dinner with Ayan. You shouldstart getting ready. If you really think it doesn't matter and you don'tneed to prepare, that's fine. After all, the surprise I have for you isdefinitely beyond your expectations.”
With that, Camille ended the conversation with Sienna.
Then, arm in arm, they entered the elevator together. Ayan looked atCamille's face, radiant with a smile, and couldn't help but say, “You'rewilling to go through all this trouble to prepare various surprises forher."
Camille nodded unabashedly and said, "Because she's too lonely hereon her own, and we're very, very good friends. She's always been verykind to me. Now, the only thing I can do is make her feel a little warmthin her loneliness. In the end, there's probably only Rex who cansurprise her for a lifetime."
Camille genuinely cared for Sienna, but her concern could only existwithin the boundaries of friendship because there were certain thingsshe couldn't do. Even if she did, Sienna wouldn't accept it. Only themost intimate partner could provide her with constant support andcomfort.
The two of them took a car directly to Sienna’s place.
During the journey, Sienna hadn't completely snapped out of herthoughts about Camille's words. She had imagined countlesspossibilities but still couldn't figure out what kind of surprise Camille hadin store for her.
Was it something she couldn't even imagine? What could it be?Sienna pursed her lips slightly and pondered for a while before gettingout of the car and heading upstairs. But to avoid Camille seeing her in adisheveled and tired state, she quickly took a simple shower andchanged into casual clothes. She rarely wore casual clothes since sheusually dressed professionally for work.
With her hair tied up high in a ponytail, she realized that there wereonly two or three minutes left before the half-hour mark. Surprisingly,she felt a hint of nervousness.
She felt like a child, eagerly anticipating the arrival of a surprise. Thefeeling made her heart race.
As she regulated her breathing, the doorbell suddenly rang.
She took a deep breath, got up, and went to open the door. She leanedin to look through the peephole to see what surprise Camille hadprepared. However, the peephole was blocked, evidently per Camille'sinstructions. So, with no other option, she opened the door directly.
As soon as the door opened, she heard a familiar woman's voice say,"Surprise!"
Camille's beautiful face appeared before her eyes, but Siennaremained frozen, without any reaction.
Seeing her expression, Camille raised her hand and waved it in front ofSienna, laughing, “Hello, are you okay? Did I startle you?"
Sienna still stood there, motionless. Her mind went blank, andeverything seemed frozen.
How could the person who had just been talking on the phone abouthaving dinner with Ayan suddenly appear in front of her?
This was too surreal, wasn't it?
She opened her mouth and said incredulously, "So, you really came toFlento City?"
“I'm standing right in front of you. Is there any doubt?"
Camille couldn't help but laugh.
Only then did Sienna happily reach out and embrace Camille. Theyhugged tightly, completely disregarding Ayan, who was standing to theside.
After a while, when both Sienna and Camille had calmed down, they letgo of the embrace.
Sienna looked at Camille with slightly reddened eyes and said, "Whydidn't you tell me you were coming to Flento City? I could have pickedyou up!"
Sienna exchanged a glance with Ayan, nodding slightly as a way ofgreeting him, and then immediately invited both of them inside.Camille said, "Because I wanted to surprise you. Now, take thisopportunity to show us around Flento City. Find a nice place to treat usto a meal!”
"Alright, let's go now," Sienna replied, grabbing her bag and hurryingoff. She drove with Camille and Ayan to her favorite quiet and casualbar, known for its great snacks.
The three of them found an inconspicuous spot to sit. Sienna took theinitiative and said, “I often come here alone when I have nothing to do.”Camille felt a pang of sympathy and said, "Now, I'm here with you."Sienna smiled.
They hadn't seen each other in a long time, but they didn't feel theslightest bit distant. They sat together, chatting away, completelyignoring Ayan. But Ayan didn't mind at all because his phone rang atthat moment.
He glanced at his phone, then said to the two of them, "You twocontinue talking. I need to take this call outside."
Ayan walked out of the restaurant with his phone. Watching his figure,Sienna asked, "Mr. Simpson won't be angry, will he? He won't feelunhappy that I'm monopolizing you?"
