Chapter 872: Cherishing Life
The news spread quickly, causing a wave of shocked reactions.
Since Sienna didn't capture the content of the marriage certificate in thephoto, many thought it was fake, and some even joked that she wascelebrating April Fools’ Day early.
Camille was one of the first to see it and immediately messaged her, “Isthis real?"
Sienna played coy, "Guess."
Camille replied, "So it's real?"
"Come on, can't you at least make a guess? You're like a mind-readerto me," Sienna sighed in frustration. It seemed that she had neverprovided any challenge to Camille.
Sienna's response confirmed the authenticity of the news. She wasn'tparticularly surprised and asked, "When are you coming back toHance? Treat me to a meal, or you'll be in trouble.”
"Just a meal, I promise. You can choose whatever you want. Rex willpay for our dinner, so don't hesitate to have an expensive one," Siennareplied.
Camille sent an OK emoji and then received another message fromSienna, "What about you? How's it going with Mr. Simpson? Has hewon you over yet?"
Knowing their situation, Sienna felt anxious.
She hoped that Ayan would quickly win Camille back and remarry herso she wouldn't have to worry about this situation all the time. She wasafraid she might slip up in conversations since Ayan had told her abouttheir fake divorce to protect her from Mario's threats. She couldn'tbetray Ayan after all he'd done for her.
Of course, she was on Camille's side, and she didn't want to pry intothe reasons why Ayan and Camille decided to have a fake divorce. Itwas their private matter. As Camille's best friend, as long as Ayan didn'thurt Camille, she was willing to cooperate.
After Sienna's message, Camille took quite a while to respond.
After waiting for several minutes, Sienna sent her a voice message,"Why aren't you saying anything? Did you remarry Mr. Simpson withouttelling me?"
"I was busy just now, working. We haven't remarried,” Camille replied."2???" Sienna asked, "Then what's going on with you two?"
“Let's talk about it when you come back."
"Cami, are you feeling down?" Sienna asked, concerned.
“I'm fine, just a bit busy lately, feeling tired," Camille replied.
Sienna sent a hugging emoji and chatted with Camille for a while. SinceCamille was still working, she didn't want to disturb her too much.
After finishing the chat with Camille, Sienna sighed silently whileholding her phone. Camille didn't seem to be in a good mood, and thatworried her.
Rex noticed Sienna's actions and asked, "What's wrong?"
Sienna said, "Is there a problem between Camille and Mr. Simpson?""How could that be?" Rex denied it immediately, saying, "My mom justtold me this morning that the Simpson family is already preparing fortheir wedding. They are crazily in love. Where would there be anyissues?"
The relationship between the Simpson family and the Ward familystarted with their grandfathers and has spanned many years. Ayan andSienna grew up together as childhood friends, and Talia couldn't wait totell Rex's mother about their wedding plans on the night they gotengaged.
Their relationship was excellent, and both families were experiencingthis for the first time, so they were exchanging experiences frequently.Madison, in particular, informed Rex immediately, hinting heavily aboutAyan, who was the same age as him, having a child already and nowpreparing for a wedding.
But what about Rex?
Until now, there was still no good news from him, probably becauseRex was not the reliable type, which led to him not having a girlfriend.Rex had withheld the news about his marriage before. Instead, heplayfully asked Sienna, "What gift will you give your future daughter-in-law when I bring her back to meet you?"
"As long as you bring her back, I'll immediately give her a gift. I'veprepared it a long time ago. It's up to you if you can take it from me,"Madison responded.
Rex just smiled and told Madison to prepare properly. He might bringsomeone back anytime.
So when the topic of Ayan and Camille's wedding came up, he seizedthe opportunity to ask Sienna, "After we return to Hance City, will youcome with me to meet my parents at the Ward family?"
Still immersed in Camille's wedding plans, Sienna absentmindedlynodded, "Sure."
"Okay then," Rex replied.
Only later did Sienna snap out of it, looking at Rex with disbelief, "Whatdid you just say?"
Rex chuckled, "You already agreed, no backing out.”
Sienna hurriedly said, "I'm not prepared yet."
"You don't need to prepare anything. Just come with me, and trust me,everyone in the Ward family will like you."
Rex and Sienna had been together for quite a while, and although theirrelationship wasn't completely public, the Ward family had heardrumors. However, they didn't meddle too much because of the previousengagement, and they understood Rex's temperament.
Worried about Sienna'’s insecurities, Rex reiterated firmly, "Trust me,okay?"
He would arrange everything, ensuring no one would dare to mistreather or give her any trouble.
His determination made Sienna refrain from refusing. After all, theywere already married, and she would have to face this sooner or later.But she was starting to feel nervous and worried. Would Rex's parentsreally like her?
She envied how Ayan's parents treated Camille. They had no typicalmother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflicts, which she believed wasthe best example of such kind of a relationship. Maybe she couldachieve that too?
Mario soon received the news after Sienna's posts.
Yesterday morning, he had just been discharged from the hospital andhadn't returned to the King family yet. Instead, he stayed at his villa.He still hadn't contacted Sienna, not because he planned to continuelike this, but because he wanted to give her a chance to see the truthfor herself.
However, he got word of Sienna's post from his secretary. Though thesecretary's tone seemed dismissive, he treated it as a casual report.His initial reaction was subdued, but his face soon turned ice-cold as herepeatedly read the content. He picked up his phone and openedSienna's Facebook.
A photo of the marriage certificate and one word: "Married!"
His brow furrowed, and his expression turned extremely chilly. Thesecretary, seeing Mario's demeanor, cautiously said, "Mr. King, maybeMiss King is just playing a game with her friends, or it's some internetslang?"
Mario remained silent, his face growing even colder.
"Do you think she'd do something so trivial?" he asked in a tone lacedwith coldness.
The secretary felt a chill down his spine and dared not breathe heavily.Mario's face slightly narrowed, his voice filled with coldness as he said,“Investigate the true meaning behind her post.”
The secretary didn't dare to procrastinate and quickly conducted theinvestigation.
However, the results he found were something he didn't dare to reportto Mario. He was too afraid of the consequences.
But dragging it out was also not feasible since they'd eventually have toface it.
With great trepidation, the secretary informed Mario of the results.Mario's first reaction was, "Are you sure you've investigatedthoroughly? It's not a fake message that Sienna deliberately spread?""Mr. King, I checked the surveillance footage from the Civil AffairsBureau. Miss King did indeed register her marriage with Rex," thesecretary said.
Upon hearing this, the room fell silent, and a chilling atmosphere filledthe air.
Time seemed to stand still, and the air was filled with tension. Mario'sface became veiled in frost, and his voice was laced with coldness,"Sienna, do you think this kind of move can completely sever our ties?"He picked up his phone and dialed Sienna's number.
But Sienna didn't answer; she hung up right after it got through.
Mario didn't redial; instead, he stared out the window, his face showingno emotion. He then sent a message, and within a minute, Siennacalled him back.
