Chapter 1283: Implication
Camille shook her head, saying, âI don't have the energy for this. I can't
do it, so leave me alone!"
"Can't you have a little confidence? Aren't we pursuing a career path?
This is a good business opportunity,â Sienna continued to chatter, but
Camille completely ignored her, not listening at all.
Camille had already started working, and she had almost finished
preparing the self-recommendation materials for the Nores Group
project. She looked up at Sienna, who was eating a sandwich beside
her, and asked, "How are the design drafts coming along?"
Sienna also put away her playful expression and became serious. She
said, "They're almost ready."
"Good, then. Just as I mentioned before, prepare two different versions.
Don't keep them on the computer; use a USB drive instead. The
computer is too conspicuous. With a USB drive, we can have a backup,
but both copies need to be encrypted. Understand?" Camille instructed
in a low voice, her expression serious and solemn. She took this matter
extremely seriously.
After Camille finished speaking, Sienna nodded in agreement. "Yes, I
understand. Don't worry."
"Although you understand, there are still things we need to be cautious
about.â Camille implied, suggesting that Sienna should be cautious not
only with their assistants but also with their colleagues, regardless of
how well they got along in the company. Such a big matter required
some precautions.
After Sienna's words, Yessica couldn't help but speak up, asking, âWhat
about me? Should I avoid it?"
Camille glanced at Yessica and said, "No, you don't have to. If you talk
about it, I'll let Kian deal with you."
Yessica innocently looked at Camille and said, "But I'm just an innocent
person!"
"So innocent people don't need to avoid it, right?" Camille said with a
slight smile.
Sienna lightly pinched Yessica's cheek. Of course, she and Camille
trusted Yessica; otherwise, they wouldn't entrust her with many
important matters in the company. She reassured Yessica, saying,
"Don't be nervous. She's just joking with you."
Yessica nodded slightly and said, "I know, but I'm still a bit nervous. I'm
afraid something unexpected might happen. So it's better to be safe,
just in case. Otherwise, if Kian uses those methods to deal with traitors,
I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it!"
Camille and Sienna couldn't help but laugh, finding Yessica's fearful
appearance quite amusing.
After discussing this matter, Sienna said to Camille, "Has Crystal been
in touch with you recently?"
Camille raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Sienna, asking,
"Why do you ask?"
"Because she sent me a message last night."
"What did she say?"
"She invited us to have a meal together. It seems like Crystal really
wants to be friends with us. If I hadn't interacted with her before, I
would have suspected she had some ulterior motive," Sienna sighed
and said, "Her actions make me wonder."
Camille pursed her lips and thought for a moment before saying, âWhat
do you think?"
"I just feel that we're not that close, so there's no need for such
frequent contact,â Sienna said again, "But she seems to think we're
quite familiar. It's like she's taking the initiative, not caring whether
we're cold towards her or not. It's just that she's really eager to be
friends with us."
Sienna couldn't figure it out either. Last time, Crystal had made several
appointments and even specially brought afternoon tea. It was entirely
her making one-sided efforts.
Crystal's series of actions puzzled her, and she even had an impossible
idea.
She asked Camille and Yessica, âDoes she have feelings for me? Why
does she always think about contacting me? Although the topics of our
conversations naturally include Cami, it's just a casual question and
doesn't involve any actual contact with Cami. So I really can't help but
wonder if she has some ulterior motive for me."
Sienna's words left Camille and Yessica stunned, their faces displaying
a bewildered and confused expression as they gazed at each other.
Yessica asked softly, "It can't be, right? After all, your marriage to Mr.
Ward is no secret. If she really had feelings for you, wouldn't she try to
sabotage it? The only chance she would have is if she managed to
create discord between you and Mr. Ward. But she hasn't done
anything like that, she simply wants to have dinner with both of you and
spend more time together.â
"That's true, huh!" Sienna clicked her tongue, feeling increasingly
perplexed. She sighed silently and whispered, "Am I just being
paranoid?"
Camille remained silent, and Yessica stayed quiet as well.
Since they weren't Crystal herself and didn't know much about her, they
naturally couldn't know what she was thinking. The three of them
exchanged glances, a brief moment of silence passing between them.
Then, Camille spoke softly, âIs she just asking us out for dinner?"
âYeah, she wants to meet you and me," Sienna responded, suddenly
blurting out, "Could it be that she's interested in you?"
Camille looked exasperated and said, "Can you please think more
rationally? Stop speculating about things that may or may not be there,
okay?"
Sienna replied, "I can't help it. She's so enthusiastic that it makes me
think these thoughts!"
Camille didn't address the topic further, she simply told Sienna, "Since
she has invited us so many times and brought so many specialties and
afternoon tea from Flento City, let's treat her this time. Consider it
repaying a favor.â
Camille asked Sienna to confirm the time with Crystal and see if they
could have dinner together tonight or tomorrow.
Sienna acted quickly, taking out her phone in front of Camille and
sending a message to Crystal. The response came almost instantly.
Crystal said she was available anytime, so they decided on tonight.
Camille contacted Ayan's assistant to book a private room at Darkmoor,
and they planned to go there around six in the evening.
After finalizing all the arrangements, Camille asked Sienna and Crystal
to inform her once everything was settled. That would be considered as
the official arrangement.
Sienna showed Camille the message from Crystal, and from the words
and emojis Crystal used, she seemed genuinely happy.
Of course, they both knew that Crystal wasn't happy just because of
this dinner. Crystal wasn't someone who lacked a meal, considering her
wealthy background. Although she didn't involve herself in the business
world in Flento City, the Bill family had other interests in different
industries.
Camille and Sienna had heard about the Bill family during their time in
Flento City and had some preliminary understanding of it.
With the dinner plans set, there was still a long time until the meal, so
they naturally continued to focus on their work.
Sienna followed Camille's instructions, organizing everything that
needed to be sorted and encrypting the files that required encryption.
After last night's events, she double-checked everything to be sure.
