Because Ayan had worked up a sweat walking, he went to freshen up as soon as he got back. Camille was downstairs watching TV, waiting for confirmation of the departure time for dinner with Sienna. She heard about the parking lot design competition and hadn't had a chance to ask Ayan yet. So she went straight upstairs and found Ayan just coming out of the shower. Their eyes met, but Camille felt shy and looked away. Ayan noticed this and chuckled, "Embarrassed? It's all yours, what are you afraid of?"
Camille frowned and said, "Be serious, I have something to ask you."
"Okay, go ahead."
Camille asked in a calm tone,"Are you close with Crystal?"
Ayan shook his head,"Not really close but I know her. After you told me about her earlier today I had Kian look into her background information then she showed up at the design competition today while we were waiting for you so she greeted me when she saw me there but what about you two? Are you close? She said that you cheered her on which made her feel happy!"
Camille blinked lightly and caught a hint of jealousy in his words.
"We're both girls after all," Camille replied,"There was also some misunderstanding because of my assistant before so when she saw those rumors online she immediately showed concern for me so I thought it would be nice if I responded by cheering her on too."
Camille gave a simple response.
Ayan nodded along saying,"Since your willing to respond like that it seems like your decision is that shes not bad enough to become friends with right?"
"I don't know," Camile said honestly,"I just feel like she is overly enthusiastic which makes it hard to refuse."
Ayan could tell from her hesitation that there was an inner conflict within herself but some things were destined; they couldn't be stopped or resisted.
"It's not really an issue being friends with someone who makes us happy," Ayan stated calmly,"As long as we enjoy ourselves then other things shouldn't matter right?"
"Yeah…" Camile agreed softly.
Afterwards, Camile didn't press further into asking when he would talk more with Crystal even though they investigated Crystal before; even if Sienna ran into him again, Ayaan wouldn't say more than half a word about their conversation together.
Ayan's personality was such that he would never say a word more than necessary, especially when there was no benefit or relevance to him. But Camille, at the moment, had no awareness and no intention of thinking any further about it.
After the topic had ended, the two of them tidied up and were ready to go out for dinner. It wasn't just the four of them; there were also employees from their company.
This was also the first time that company employees had eaten with people like Ayan and Rex. Although they already knew about Camille's relationship with Ayan and Sienna's relationship with Rex, they all had a strict character when it came to not prying into others' private lives. This was mainly why Camille had been able to work with them for so long.
Sienna reserved a large private room where everyone could sing karaoke or play games together without feeling awkward or bored.
Camille and Sienna took care of their colleagues while Ayan and Rex took care of themselves as family members. And oh yes, Camille and Sienna invited Kian too!
As guests invited by Camille and Sienna, they naturally said to both men: "Take care of Kian."
