Chapter 965 Deception
Chapter 965 Deception
Camille looked at him with indifference, her gaze turning cold. She wasasking herself the same question.
Could she blame Ayan?
No, she couldn't.
She was clear that she couldn't blame him.
Because this matter didn't fit the description of blame, and it couldn't besummed up with a simple blame or not blame.
What concerned her was the deception, and the fact that such a hugescheme had been concealed from her. It was an elaborate deception.She said, "The reason you didn't want Cora to be out of your sight andcontrol is that you were afraid she would tell Preston about this, right?"Ayan's expression grew solemn, but he didn't deny it. "Yes, that was myintention.”
“But what you don't know is that Cora contacted me on her own. In fact,she called me a few days ago. Although she didn't tell me what it wasabout, I could guess that it had something to do with us."
Camille had asked Ayan more than once if he was keeping somethingfrom her. Ayan's answers had always been vague and unsatisfactory.She felt confused and was not willing to give up on this matter.
Without waiting for Ayan to respond, she continued, “I need some timealone.”
"Okay, I'll move out. I can stay at the Simpson's mansion or MapleLeaves Mansion nearby. You can stay here with Timmy. Please don'tmove out, alright?" His tone carried a hint of command, but it wasmostly a plea.
Ayan was afraid that Camille would refuse, so he spoke before shecould reject his proposal. “I don't mean anything else, and I'm notmaking decisions on my own. Timmy has gotten used to living here,and everything is more convenient. If you don't stay here, would youreally leave Timmy behind? Or would you want to take Timmy to live inan apartment or hotel in Maple Leaves Mansion? That would be tootroublesome.”
He finished speaking and stood up, looking down at the woman sittingon the sofa. “I'm leaving now, not to test you or frame you."
Ayan actually left, not waiting for Camille's response. He left behind thesuitcase he had brought with him at the entrance but didn't take it withhim.
The sound of a car starting outside gradually brought Camille back toher senses. She stared out of the window with an expression that wasa mix of warmth and coldness and asked herself, "Is this going too far?"But there was no hesitation, and she received her answer almostinstantly.
She wasn't going too far.
She hadn't driven Ayan away, and she hadn't thought about moving outherself. She simply wanted both of them to cool down. After all, thematter had reached her bottom line, and she couldn't pretend it wasinsignificant.
She pressed her lips tightly, feeling uneasy.
She was conflicted and confused, unsure of what to do.
Camille sat like that for a long time until the doorbell rang, bringing herback to reality.
She got up and opened the door. Sienna, dressed in casual homeattire, stood at the entrance. She stared at Camille cautiously, her lipsslightly pursed, and asked in a soft voice, "Did you have a fight withAyan?"
Camille asked, "Did he go to your place?"
"We just met. He called Rex out for a drink. They talked for a while, andhe invited Rex. A hundred percent, you guys had a fight."
"We didn't fight." Camille didn't consider it a fight; it was more like aquestioning.
If it had been a real fight, they wouldn't be so calm now.
Camille invited Sienna inside, and they sat on the couch. The spaciousroom fell silent. Sienna’s eyes remained fixed on Camille, and shehesitated, as if struggling to replace the right words.
After countless moments passed, Camille finally noticed Sienna’sunease and said, “If you have something to ask, just say it. Don't holdback."
Sienna didn't immediately speak but shifted her position, moving closerto Camille's side. She leaned against Camille's shoulder and asked in avoice that sounded like a child admitting a mistake, "Cami, what exactlydid you fight with Mr. Simpson about?"
"We didn't fight.”
"Okay, not a fight. But what happened between you two?" Shecontinued to ask.
Camille didn't respond. Instead, she asked a question of her own,"Sienna, if Rex had deceived you for a long time, even going to greatlengths to prevent the deception from being exposed, would you forgivehim?"
Sienna was taken aback, completely stiffening and unable to move.Camille noticed her unusual reaction and asked, "Why are you reactingso strongly?"
Sienna replied in a low voice, "I don't know if I would forgive him.Because until something actually happens, we never know how theperson involved feels and what their situation is like."
"Yes, you're right."
"Cami, I need to confess something to you.”
"What is it?"
"The matter between you and Ayan." Sienna found it difficult to speak.She had initially cooperated with Ayan, thinking it was for Camille'sgood. However, Camille's words had made her realize that it wasessential for the person involved to accept it.
After hearing Sienna's words, Camille's brows furrowed instantly. Sheturned her gaze towards Sienna, her voice filled with questioning. "So,don't tell me you've known all along that I never actually divorced him?"Sienna, on the verge of tears, explained, "I... I did know, but not for verylong. I found out when you and Ayan came to see me in Flento."Sienna went on to describe how she had been threatened by Mario andAyan then confessed to her about Camille's marital situation. She said,“I know these are all excuses, and I'm not trying to absolve myselfusing this explanation.”
"If that's the case, why say all of this?" Camille's expression remainedcold. She ignored Sienna's tearful face, her eyes sharp as shecontinued, "You can leave now. I don't want to see you right now.""Cami, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kept it from you. I didn't think toomuch at the time. I just thought it was your marriage with Mr. Simpson,and you both needed to work it out on your own. I didn't consider that itwould be seen as deception by you. I'm really sorry!"
Camille remained silent. She hadn't expected Sienna to know as well.After thinking about it carefully, she realized that she had mentionedabout her remarriage on multiple occasions, saying Ayan hadn't beentaking any action. She knew Sienna wouldn't mock her, but her ownpride prevented her from pretending as if nothing had happened.
The atmosphere remained quiet, and Sienna dared not speak further.She sat silently, not making any movements.
Since they had known each other, there had been little disagreementbetween them. A moment like this was the first time.
After a while, Sienna couldn't bear it any longer. She reached out andgently tugged on Camille's sleeve, speaking softly, "Cami, don't ignoreme. Please don't be angry. I know I made a mistake. I won't do it again,I promise. Please don't be silent, okay?"
