Chapter 1252: Argument

Chapter 1252: Argument

Camille didn't know if Ayan believed her, but he didn't continue to

inquire further either.

Ayan did have work to do, so they went upstairs together. Since there

was no need for a walk, Camille went straight to her room while Ayan

headed to the study.

Camille was worried that Ayan might directly ask Sienna or Rex about

the situation, so she quickly sent a message to Sienna, informing her

that they were currently in the argument phase.

Sienna didn't quite understand, but she cooperatively replied with a

"Okay."

However, as it turned out, Camille's speculation was correct. Just after

replying to Camille's message, Rex discreetly glanced at Sienna and

casually asked, "Are you arguing with Camille?"

Rex's gaze carried a hint of probing. Sienna noticed it and immediately

smiled, saying, "Ayan also asked me. He said Camille is in a bad mood

and couldn't eat. If it's not something significant, you should just make

up. You two have a good relationship, there's no need to argue over

work."

Sienna now fully understood. Camille was in a bad mood after arguing

with someone, but she didn't want Ayan to know, so she deliberately

brought Sienna into the picture as a scapegoat. It seemed like she was

just a tool in this scenario.

Sienna remained silent, understanding Camille's intentions. Therefore,

she didn't immediately respond to Rex's words.

Her silence made Rex believe that there was indeed a conflict between

the two. However, looking at Sienna's appetite, which seemed fine, and

the fact that she didn't show any signs of giving him a hard time, he

realized that if her mood was bad, he would definitely suffer.

Rex spoke again, "Sienna, what happened between you and Camille?

Is it just a work-related disagreement?"

Sienna met Rex's gaze, saying, "Hmm, there is indeed some

disagreement, so it's better if you don't ask any further!"

Rex saw that she didn't want to say more, so he naturally didn't push it.

He didn't want to get involved unnecessarily. However, he did reply to

Ayan's message, informing him that they did have an argument.

At Franklin Bay, Camille had just deleted the conversation with Sienna

and opened Talia's Facebook to send a video call request.

At the Simpson's mansion, they were having dinner. Camille initiated

the video call with Timmy earlier than usual. When Talia answered, she

saw Timmy's face covered in food, making Camille unable to help but

laugh. It was quite amusing.

Camille waved at Timmy and spoke in a gentle voice, "Timmy, what are

you eating?"

Timmy held his bowl up to show Camille. There were vegetables,

shrimp, and a little bit of rice. He was eating by himself, even using his

hands to feed himself. Camille watched as Timmy finished his meal and

waited for the nanny to clean his hands before handing Talia's phone to

him. Timmy held the phone and immediately pressed his face against

the screen, kissing Camille's face, and said, "Mommy, I miss you so

much!" His sweet words were incredibly endearing.

However, when Camille thought about what had happened a few hours

ago, she felt really bad. She couldn't directly ask about it, so she softly

asked Timmy, "Were you happy today?"

Timmy nodded and said, "Happy, I was very happy today."

Timmy's words were lively, and his facial expressions were animated.

Looking at Timmy, Camille couldn't see any signs of anything unusual.

Could it be that children have short memories? But if something like

that happened, wouldn't a child be scared? Yet, there was no trace of

fear on Timmy's face, which puzzled Camille. However, her worries

didn't diminish, so she casually asked Talia during their conversation,

"Mommy, did Nanny accompany Timmy to his classes today?"

Talia confirmed that she did.

Camille pursed her lips and carefully considered before saying to Talia,

"Mommy, wouldn't it be unsafe to have just one nanny accompanying

Timmy outside, especially when he goes to classes? There are other

children and nannies, and it can get crowded sometimes. How about

arranging for an additional nanny to accompany him so that the other

one can have a rest?"

As a mother, she couldn't bear to see her child in any bit of discomfort

or danger. Even though she knew that one nanny was enough for a

child, Camille couldn't help having this thought. But she was also

worried that Talia would think too much, so she quickly explained, “I

saw a video today that seems to show child abductions happening

again in Hance City, so I'm a bit worried."

After all, Timmy was no longer one year old or just a few months old. If

they wanted to avoid seeing Preston, they could simply stay at home or

go out less. But now that the child was getting older and entering

kindergarten, there would come a time when he wouldn't need a nanny

anymore, and the worries would likely increase. So, when Timmy

officially entered kindergarten, Camille needed to completely dispel

Preston's current thoughts and plans.

Camille pursed her lips. She had spent the whole afternoon in a highly

nervous state, so her mental state was not good right now, especially

since her mind was filled with random thoughts, some of which even

went to extremes.

But she had to maintain her composure because that was the only way

she could be constantly on guard against Preston. Talia didn't think

much about Camille's suggestion. Although it was a society governed

by the rule of law, child abductors still existed, so Talia was very

concerned about this. Naturally, she readily agreed to Camille's

proposal.

After chatting with Talia, Camille finally noticed a message from Sienna

asking, "Just tell me honestly, what's going on? Did you have a fight

with Ayan? Or did Ayan do something to upset you?"

It had been ten minutes since the message was sent, so Camille didn't

reply. Sienna sent several more messages: "?????" "Why are you

ignoring me? Say something! What are you doing? Why aren't you

saying a word? I'm about to explode!!!" "Fine, I'm coming back now. Did

Ayan beat you up?" "What's going on between you two?"

Sienna was genuinely worried, but she didn't dare to call, fearing that it

would disrupt Camille's instructions. Seeing Sienna’s consecutive

messages, Camille calmly replied, "Just had a video call with Timmy, it

just ended.” "I'm fine, we didn't fight. I'm just not in a good mood, and I

don't want to explain so much to him, so I had to come up with a

random excuse."

After seeing the message, Sienna felt relieved and said, "Well, you

found an excuse. Ayan asked Rex about it, and Rex was probing me

during dinner. If I hadn't given him a killer look, he would probably still

be bothering me! Everyone thought we had a fight."

Camille sent a mischievous emoji and jokingly said, "Should we

actually have a fight?"

Sienna, however, didn't take it lightly and rolled her eyes, then asked

indifferently, "Don't change the subject. Answer me first. Are you really

just in a bad mood?"
