Sienna had no objections and immediately said, "Sure, sure. I'll tell Rex tonight. I'll ask him to hurry up and enroll in a crash course for cooking. Otherwise, eating his food would be like courting death by poisoning."
She said it as if it were true, and Camille couldn't help but chuckle.
Sienna playfully reached out to tickle her, saying, "Alright, stop laughing. I'm serious."
Camille made a shushing gesture and replied, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. Otherwise, Mr. Baxter's image would be tarnished."
"I don't know if he'd be affected, but I'm pretty sure I'd be embarrassed," Sienna boldly stated. Then, she suddenly shifted the conversation, saying to Camille, "By the way, let me tell you, my relationship with my mother-in-law has improved significantly lately. I know it's all thanks to you and your mother-in-law. If you hadn't spoken well of me and let my mother-in-law know I'm a good person, she would probably have thought I was some seductive woman trying to lure her son."
Sienna genuinely appreciated Camille's efforts, and Camille responded with a thumbs-up and a casual remark, "I like how you can be so harsh on yourself and still curse like a sailor."
Sienna playfully nudged her and advised, "I'm serious, talk seriously."
"I am serious. Although my mother-in-law played a significant role in this, the truth is, it's your likable personality that really made the difference. Otherwise, no matter how much I said, it wouldn't have made much difference, right?"
"Alright, I'll take that as a compliment."
Sienna accepted the praise without a hint of shyness and leaned against Camille, savoring the joyful moment that belonged solely to the two of them.
Being with a close friend, someone you could talk about anything with, always made time fly by. It felt as though they had only just begun to enjoy their time together when it was already time for Camille to head back to the Simpson's mansion.
Camille informed Sienna that she was going back to the Simpson's mansion for dinner, so she didn't wait for Ayan and went back with Sienna instead.
Since the Ward family's mansion and the Simpson family's mansion were in the same vicinity, and both Camille and Sienna were closely related to the Simpson family, going together was natural.
However, Camille still sent Ayan a message to let him know, to save him the trouble of coming all the way to the Maple Leaves Mansion.
Accompanied by Camille, Sienna first visited the Simpson family's mansion. Talia had spoken well of her in front of Rex's family and Sienna hadn't found a suitable opportunity to express her gratitude. This time, she came specifically to say thank you. She had even brought high-quality fruits as a token of her appreciation.
Sienna had a way with words that brought joy to Talia. Talia said, "Sienna, you're Cami's friend, so you're practically family. When it's family, there's no need to be polite. Besides, you're a good girl, and I'm also thinking about your mother-in-law, my good friend. We can't let her lose a good daughter-in-law just because you're new to the family. These are all minor matters."
Sienna subconsciously glanced at Camille, who gave her an encouraging look. With a cup of tea in her hand, Camille handed it over to Talia, saying, "Auntie, even though you say that, I still have to thank you for everything."
Talia graciously accepted the tea and continued to chat with them for a while. When Ayan returned, Sienna said, "Auntie, it's getting late. I need to go back and see my mom. I'll come visit you again when I have time."
"Why don't you stay for dinner? This is your first time visiting our house since you married, and you even brought so many fruits. If I don't invite you for dinner, your mother-in-law might not let me off the hook."
Talia said with a smile.
Sienna quickly explained, "Auntie, I appreciate your kindness, but when I have time, I'll come over. Cami has told me countless times that your desserts are top-notch. I won't miss the chance to indulge in some free food. Just don't get tired of me in the future."
"Come over whenever you want. Of course, I won't get tired of it. I'm more than happy to have you here!"
Camille chimed in, "Mom, Sienna also needs to spend some time with Aunt Madison. If we keep her here, she might worry."
Talia didn't insist any further, allowing Camille to accompany Sienna out. She repeatedly reminded Sienna to come back for a visit, treating their house as her own.
Talia's hospitality left Sienna showering her with praise even as she left, "Your mother-in-law is truly wonderful."
