Camille was stunned and felt helpless.
Ayan was still looking at her and reminded her in a gentle voice, âGet in
the car. I canât stop here for too long.â
Would he be worried about that?
It's just an excuse.
Eventually, Camille got into the car. She lowered head and fastened her
seat belt. The car moved forward the next second.
The atmosphere in the car was quite quiet. All the way back to the
apartment, they both stayed silent.
As for Sophia, neither of them mentioned it anymore.
Camille told herself that it was just a small thing, so it should not affect
the experience of getting along with each other or make the
atmosphere unpleasant. More importantly, she was going to compete
and there was no extra energy for her to focus on other things.
The night before the contest competition, Ayan asked her to finish her
work early and said, âDonât work overtime tonight, OK? Let's go out to
have dinner. You've been spending all your time on the drawings
recently. That's boring.â
Camille pursed her lips, wanting to refuse subconsciously.
It seemed that Ayan spelt over her mind, so he went ahead of her and
said the next second before her words, âTake it as to accompany me,
OK?"
Camille finally agreed.
Ayan took her to Darkmoor for dinner, just the two of them.
After dinner, Ayan drove her to the river for a walk. They were hand in
hand like a couple, enjoying the silence of this moment without any
conversation.
Ayan took her by the hand and they walked along the river to a pub
street, where the atmosphere was very nice and relaxing.
Ayan looked down at her and said, âShall we go in?"
But Camille, who was pregnant, didn't really fit in such a place. She
resisted, âI donât want to come in. let's go home!â
Ayan narrowed his eyes and asked, âJust for a while.â
Camille pressed her lips and stopped talking.
He reached over her shoulder and whispered, âWouldn't you come in
and see the surprise I've prepared for you?"
Camille looked at the man beside her with some surprise, only to see a
hint of smile on his thin lips and a handsome face revealing mysterious
enigma.
Before Camille gathered her wits together, he had already led her
inside.
After entering the bar, his palm covered her eyes gently to block her
vision. Camille was a bit startled and clutched his clothes
subconsciously.
Ayan said in a low voice, âDonât be afraid. I'm here.â
Camille followed him for about a dozen paces, then stopped.
He put his arms around Camilleâs shoulders to sit her on the couch and
glanced at the man across from him before removing the hand that was
covering Camille's eyes.
Camille opened her eyes and was a little unaccustomed to the light.
She rubbed her eyes. The moment she putdown her hand, she saw the
person sitting opposite.
She exclaimed, âSienna, why are you here?â
Sienna smiled with her arms clasping around her chest and tutted
twice, âMr. Simpson invited me here at a high price and asked me to
accompany you to participate in the contest. You two are so lovey-
dovey with no regard for my feelings. Would you want to make me
admire you?"
Camille looked at Ayan subconsciously, who also fixed his eyes on her.
Looking at each other, Camille pursed her lips and smiled, âThank you,
Ayan.â
Ayan reached out and pinched her cheek and whispered, "You guys
talk first, I'll drive over.â
The car was still parked at the place for dinner, which was a little
distant.
As Ayan went to drive, Sienna looked at Camille with a gossipy look on
her face. She stretched out her hands to support her cheek, and asked
curiously, âHow are things going with you?â
âNot bad.â
âWell, you are now a double harvest of career and marriage.â
âHow about you? Are you OK?"
âI'm fine. I'll die alone. Donât worry about me. However, if you really love
me, you can give me the baby after birth, or have another baby for me.â
She sighed and made a pitiful look deliberately to make Camille care
about her.
However, Camille said coldly, âI'm not worried about you, so can live
yourself well.â
Feeling wronged, Sienna picked up her bag and got up quickly. âDonât
stop me. I'm going to take a taxi back to Flento City overnight.â
âOkay. Careful on your way out.â
Camille had little reaction.
Sienna sighed helplessly and went to Camille directly. She pinched
Camille's neck gently and said, âYou are so ruthless. That's how you
treat me after getting married, right?â
âHumph!â Sienna loosened her up and then leaned on her shoulder,
saying, âGo get them. Donât be nervous. I'm always with you.â
No matter how they quarreled and fought or no matter what happened,
the relationship between them would never change, let alone be
affected by the interests of the outside world and othersâ provocation.
Ayan gave them plenty of time to chat and relax. It was more than an
hour before Ayan called to remind them that he was at the door.
Camille and Sienna came out arm-in-arm and sat in the back seat,
considering Ayan as a driver totally.
Sienna smiled wickedly, âMr. Simpson, you won't be upset to drive us
yourself, right?â
Camille looked out of the window. She would rather not to understand
the extra meaning of her words.
Ayan could see Camille's reaction through the rearview window. He
couldn't help but hook her lips and said in a low voice, âNo. I'm honored
to serve two beautiful girls.â
Sienna smiled. She would say more nice things about him to Camille
for his sake of fawning.
Back to the apartment, Sienna stayed at the house of grandma for the
time being. Because it was getting late and Camille had to go the
competition tomorrow morning, she went back quickly and fell asleep
after taking a shower.
However, Camille was not sleepy as she lay on the bed. She stared at
the ceiling.
Ayan raised his hand to cover her eyes. âWhat are you looking at?â
âI'm thinking about the contest tomorrow.â
âNervous?â
She shook her head. âNo, I'm just thinking about whether there exists
something I didnât do well.â
âYou've done well. Now all you have to do is to fall asleep and have a
good rest. It's going to be a long day tomorrow.â
Camille replied, âOkay.â And she leaned over.
She turned her back to Ayan, just in time for him to hug her gently from
behind. He kissed her neck softly. âGood night.â
âWell. Good night.â
Camille closed her eyes and told herself that everything would be fine.
After a dreamless night, Camille arrived at the company with Sienna.
Since Ayan and her were the organizer and contestant today, they had
to maintain a distance.
After arriving at the office, Camille asked Yessica and the others to
come in for the last check. While they were examining the drawings
carefully, Camilleâs phone rang suddenly.
It was a number she had never seen before.
She picked up her phone and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling
window, then pressed the answer button, "Hello. This is Camille.â
âCamille, for your own good, don't take part in the competition.â
It was a very soft female voice, but with a voice changer, she couldn't
tell who it was.
