Chapter 986: A Real Divorce

Ayan chuckled lightly, but there was no trace of amusement on hishandsome face. He countered Camille's question, "Do you think Ishould be happy?"

Camille instinctively bit her lip, replaceing it challenging to answer thatquestion.

It wasn't a situation that warranted happiness, but at the same time,there wasn't much reason to be unhappy either. So, Camille wasn'tquite sure how to respond.

She could clearly sense that Ayan didn't want the divorce, so shedecided it might be better not to speak at this moment.

The two of them locked eyes, and just then, Camille's phone rang. Itwas Yessica calling.

She picked up the call, and Yessica's voice came through, "Cami, theuniversity just called to let me know that you and Sienna need toschedule an interview within the next few days. They've alreadyselected candidates that fit well with our company.”

"Alright, I'll go in this afternoon or tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll get back to them."

"Cami, you're not coming to the office this morning, right?" Yessicaasked in a soft tone.

Camille replied, "No, I have something to take care of. Why do youask?"

“No reason, just checking since you're not here at this hour. Anyway,you take care of your matters, and I'll get to work too."

"Okay."

Camille gave a brief response and was about to hang up whenYessica's voice suddenly spoke up again. She hesitated for a momentbut then decided to be honest, saying, "Cami, I want to tell yousomething.”

"Yes, go ahead. What is it?"

"I... I'm together with Kian now," Yessica finally confessed afterhesitating for a while. "We've officially become a couple these pastcouple of days."

Camille was visibly surprised, her eyes widening slightly. She blinkedand asked, "So, you're reporting this good news to me?"

“Yes, of course. After all, you were the one who introduced us, so Ithought I should tell you first."

Camille was genuinely happy for Yessica. Her face lit up with a smile asshe said, "Congratulations to both of you."

"Thank you!"

"Will I be your witness at the wedding?"

"Of course! According to my hometown customs, matchmakers areconsidered the benefactors of both the bride and groom. We'll evenreserve a special table for you to show our respect!" Yessica couldn'thelp but add.

Camille laughed, deciding not to tease her further. She said, "Well,regardless, congratulations. Since you two are together now, enjoy thefeeling of being in love!"

Yessica expressed her gratitude once more before ending the call.Camille put her phone down and glanced at Ayan, asking, "Did youknow that Yessica and Kian are together now?"

Ayan showed no change in expression, and his face remained devoidof any emotion. He replied, “Their relationship is their business.Whether I knew or not is not important.”

"Oh, so Kian didn't tell you, I see.” Camille glanced at him lightly beforecontinuing, "We're done with breakfast. Can we head out now?"

Ayan didn't respond but simply glanced at her. Then, he stood up andleft the dining room. Camille followed him, and they both headed out tothe car.

Ayan was still driving himself, while Camille sat in the passenger seat.However, the car didn't start immediately. It remained stationary foralmost half a minute, leaving Camille puzzled. She looked at Ayan andasked, "What's wrong?"

He didn't react immediately, his hand resting on the steering wheel, hishandsome profile displaying a subtle, almost elusive indifference. It wasas if he was contemplating something.

The atmosphere remained quiet as Ayan drove away from the villa. Itwas an unusual silence, one-sidedly declared by Ayan himself, whoseemed to be in a somewhat sulky mood. Camille wasn't sure what tosay, so she chose to remain silent.

In no time, they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau. At this hour, thereweren't many people around, just a few couples who appeared to bethere for marriage registration. The divorce window, in contrast, wasunusually quiet.

Camille and Ayan took their seats in front of the divorce window, andthe staff handed them each a sheet of paper and a pen to sign theirnames. The whole process was swift, so quick that it left no room formemories. When they came to their senses, they were holding a newdocument, and the previous one had been taken away.

Camille exchanged a glance with Ayan, thanked the staff, and thenturned to Ayan, saying, "Let's go!"

Ayan appeared displeased, exuding an air that clearly warned othersnot to approach. Even the staff, who were aware of their divorce,seemed taken aback by his demeanor.

Camille had to reach out and hold Ayan's arm. She couldn't help butask, "What's wrong?"

He didn't provide an explanation. Instead, he turned to face Camille.His deep gaze carried a noticeable sense of discontent, and his voicedripped with frustration as he said, "What can I do? Right now, it's all upto you."

Camille chuckled, "Mr. Simpson, you were the one who initiated thisdecision. Haven't you forgotten?"

“But isn't this what you wanted?"

"Yes, it's what I wanted. But it was your idea. So, are you trying to shiftall the responsibility onto me now?"

"l never said that."

"But your attitude right now..."

"Fine, I'm not happy. So yes, you have to take responsibility.”

Camille sighed, "So, what do you want me to do?"

Camille was feeling a headache coming on. This man was difficult todeal with.

As she struggled to figure out how to appease him, she asked, "So,how do you want me to take responsibility?"

Camille felt exasperated. This man was difficult to handle.

But just when she didn't know how to placate him, she heard hisunwavering voice say, "Let's remarry. You just saw that there aren'tmany people inside. We won't have to wait.”

"Remarry?" Camille was stunned, her face displaying surprise. Sheasked, "Ayan, do you know what you're saying?"

They had just left the Civil Affairs Bureau less than five minutes ago,and now he wanted to go back in for a remarriage?

Although this divorce had little to do with their feelings and was merelya choice Ayan made to address his earlier deception, it wasn'tsomething to be reversed immediately, was it?
