My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 905

Chapter 905: Sixth Sense

Camille's ability to avoid public appearances was due to Talia's understanding. Talia rarely insisted on her presence, considering the Simpson family's status. No one dared to question Talia, and no one would dare to use the daughter-in-law's absence as a reason for scrutiny.

This made Camille's life much easier, as she was free from such pressures.

The last time Camille asked Talia to talk with Madison, it had gone smoothly. Madison had been perfectly at ease when meeting Sienna for the first time. Madison was already a kind person, but with Talia's positive words, the situation had improved even more. She had directly given Sienna the Ward family's heirloom, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was flourishing.

Having seen the successful example, Sienna naturally wanted her relationship with Madison to become more stable over time. After all, there was an aura that needed to be harmonized between a new daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law.

In a pleading tone, Sienna said to Camille, "Just think of it as accompanying your best friend, okay?"

"Can I say no?"

"Of course not!"

And so, the plan was set.

After hanging up the phone, Camille realized in hindsight that she wasn't the one who invited Sienna to dinner, yet she seemed to be the one who was now obliged to make a contribution.

At seven o'clock in the evening, a group of six people arrived at the restaurant.

The restaurant was arranged by Kian, the old place, Darkmoor.

Three men and three women, no sense of distance as work colleagues, just friends enjoying each other's company.

They sat in separate groups of men and women, and no one felt uncomfortable.

Mrs. Bell had met Sienna before, so they quickly struck up a conversation.

Upon learning that Sienna was now married to Rex, Mrs. Bell offered her blessings and then whispered, "Are you planning on having a baby soon?"

Mrs. Bell's eyes twinkled mischievously, clearly very curious.

She spoke softly, so only the three of them could hear.

Sienna was caught slightly off guard by the question, her demeanor briefly freezing. It seemed the topic of having a baby was unexpected.

After all, they had just gotten married, so the question of having children might be a bit premature.

They hadn't even properly enjoyed their newlywed phase, so there were no plans for children at the moment.

This was the first time someone had asked Sienna about having children since she got married to Rex, and she wasn't sure how to respond.

Her hesitation made Mrs. Bell quickly realize her misstep, and she hurriedly explained, "Sienna, I'm sorry if my question made you uncomfortable. I'm just really fond of children, so I asked without thinking too much. You don't have to answer if you don't want to."

Mrs. Bell shot Camille a pleading look, clearly feeling a bit flustered.

Camille offered Mrs. Bell a reassuring smile and then turned to Sienna, saying, "Mrs. Bell didn't mean anything by it. If you're not comfortable answering, you don't have to."

Sienna shook her head and said, "It's not that I'm not comfortable, it's just that this is the first time I've heard this question, so I didn't know how to answer." She smiled, covering her mouth with her hand and whispered, "I haven't thought about having children yet. I still feel like a child myself, and I'm afraid I wouldn't be a good mother."

Mrs. Bell couldn't help but chuckle, "Although you may still feel like a child, Cami, who is also a child like you, is already a mother. So, there might be advantages to having children sooner."

"Mrs. Bell, if I didn't know that you and my mother-in-law aren't close, I might have thought you were sent by her!" Sienna joked.

Mrs. Bell and Camille joined in the laughter.

The topic of having children didn't linger for too long. It was Sienna's personal matter, and Mrs. Bell had only asked casually.

As the conversation continued, the atmosphere in the private room remained cheerful. The waitstaff continued to bring dishes to the table one after another. Once all the dishes were served, the waitstaff left the room, and the group raised their glasses for a toast before starting their meal.

Mr. Bell raised his glass and said, "I hope we'll have more collaborations in the future. Apart from work, I also hope that we can become the most loyal friends."

"Of course, you are always welcomed to Hance," Ayan tilted his glass slightly, clinking it with Mr. Bell's.

Rex followed suit and raised his glass, expressing his welcome to Mr. and Mrs. Bell.
