Chapter 1548: Restlessness
Camille raised an eyebrow and said, "Didn't you want to see it for yourself? You just said you wouldn't ask, but now you're still curious, aren't you? Should I just tell you?"
"No, stop, I don't want to force you. I won't accept secrets coerced through our friendship. I can't hear anything now, I'm deaf, I can't hear anything at all, so please, don't say anything." Sienna raised her hand and covered her ears, assuming a posture of covering her ears while stealing the bell.
Camille didn't stop her at all. When the drama queen started acting, it was natural to silently support her.
Camille watched her performance calmly, waiting for her to finish. Then Camille spoke slowly, "You really are a drama queen!!!"
Sienna didn't hesitate at all, "Thanks for the compliment."
Sienna poured herself a glass of water and drank most of it, then handed the cup directly to Camille, saying, "I made plans to have lunch with Yessica. Will you come with us?" "Sure, what are we having?"
"Steak! It's been a while since I had one, and I want to eat a really delicious one."
Camille had no objections. She also wanted to indulge herself and feel a little better.
After discussing the meal, Sienna planned to get busy.
However, Yessica came in holding a cup of coffee at that moment. Every time Camille came to the company, she would prepare a cup of coffee for her.
She placed the coffee on the coffee table in front of Camille and then looked at Sienna, asking, "Does Sienna want some?"
"Thanks, Yessica, but I won't drink it. I won't be sleepy later anyway." After all, there was a super delicious steak to eat.
Yessica nodded and didn't insist. She turned to Camille and said, "Camille, let's go watch a movie tonight? I want to stay up all night. Can I stay at your place?"
"Did you have a fight with Kian?"
Camille asked instinctively.
Yessica replied, "No!!! Kian is on a business trip. He's already at the airport preparing for his trip. This time he's going on a trip with Mr. Simpson, so I don't dare stay at home alone. I want to stay at your place since Mr. Simpson is not there. Can you give me a guest room?"
Camille was stunned.
Kian went on a business trip?
So suddenly?
She had no idea at all. If Yessica hadn't told her, she still wouldn't know.
Camille remained motionless, completely unresponsive. Yessica and Sienna noticed her unusual reaction and exchanged glances. Yessica was the first to speak, "Camille, do you want to refuse me? It's okay. Don't feel obligated. I can go to my parents' house."
Yessica was worried that Camille might feel inconvenienced, so she wouldn't force her and wouldn't make her uncomfortable.
Sienna looked at Camille's reaction and tried to ease the atmosphere, "Is she so happy that she's speechless? Don't worry, go ahead, I'll come with you tonight. Let's have a great time, just the three of us girls!"
Camille finally snapped out of it. She quickly lowered her gaze, not wanting them to see how awful she felt. She whispered, "Sure, I welcome it. I'll have Auntie prepare some late-night snacks for us later. What do you want to eat? The usual?"
They had gathered a few times before, mostly eating pizza and some snacks.
Yessica clapped happily after hearing Camille's words, "Great, great!"
Yessica confirmed once again that Camille didn't reject her, and she was relieved. Yessica didn't stay at work for long. After confirming the meeting time, she left first.
The atmosphere in the office quieted down as well.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Camille walked over to the sofa and sat down. There was no need for her to pretend anything in front of. Sienna. She sighed deeply and took the initiative to speak, "I didn't know Ayan went on a business trip."
Sienna was also taken aback.
Suddenly, Sienna felt a cold gust of wind blowing by her ears, and she didn't know what to say anymore.
She looked at Camille, who appeared pale and weak. She opened her mouth but couldn't find the right words to say.
While Sienna was at a loss for words, Camille spoke up first, saying, "I'm fine, but there have been some conflicts between us. However, I can't tell you right now because I don't know how to say it." Camille took a deep breath, her expression somewhat subdued, and continued, "Let's focus on work. We still have to go for lunch, right? I'm okay, really. If I'm feeling emotional, I'll let you know!" Camille spoke calmly, but she was worried that Sienna wouldn't believe her. So she said seriously, "I'm really fine, don't worry about me. If there's something bothering me, I'll tell you."
Finally, Sienna nodded and spoke gently, "Tell me anything you want. I'm here for you, okay?"
"Yeah, I know. Don't worry!" Camille also nodded.
Their gazes met for a moment, and then Sienna left the office.
After Sienna left, Camille remained sitting on the sofa, motionless. She had intended to work and adjust her inner anxiety and restlessness, but now she had no inclination to focus on work or think about her own mood.
Her mind was filled with questions about why Ayan didn't tell her.
She bit her lip tightly, her thoughts weighed heavily on her. She took a deep breath, her face expressing deep concern.
She told herself not to overthink it. Maybe it was an emergency situation, and Ayan didn't have time to inform her. He would tell her once he was done with his work.
But would he really?
Camille couldn't stay calm. She felt extremely restless and anxious, sitting there without any movement.
Moments passed, and she didn't do
anything. Finally, she took out her phone. She checked the time and realized it had been over an hour since Yessica mentioned that Ayan went on a business trip with Kian. Throughout this time, she maintained the same sitting posture, her mind blank, devoid of many
ou
thoughts or emotions.
Camille continued to contemplate, flipping through her phone several times, but there was still no news.
Camille couldn't hold back any longer. She sent a message to Kian, pretending she didn't know anything, and asked, "Kian, is Ayan busy today? I want to go have lunch with him!" Camille asked Kian as if she were planning a surprise for Ayan, but it took more than ten minutes for a reply to come back.
Camille held her phone, guessing that Kian might still be on the plane.
She told herself not to worry and wait for Kian's reply.
She waited for two hours until Kian finally replied, just before lunchtime. Kian said, "I'm sorry, Madam. Mr. Simpson and I are on a business trip. We just arrived in Campole." Kian was also curious why Camille didn't know, but he couldn't directly ask her. Instead, he truthfully told Camille about their schedule.
After seeing Kian's message, Camille only replied, "Okay, I understand. Don't tell him, I'll call him myself later."
Camille emphasized this point, and Kian would certainly listen.
After confirming Kian's agreement, Camille put down her phone. Of course, she wouldn't call Ayan directly. She still couldn't understand why he hadn't told her. Was it because of her attitude last night?
