Sienna kept pleading, her voice even choked with tears. Their relationship was so close that they had never had a falling out before. Their families were shrouded in hypocrisy, which made them cherish their friendship even more.
Camille replied calmly, "I don't know what to say. Please leave. I need some time to cool off."
Sienna bit her lip and said, "I understand. I'll go now, but I'll come back when you calm down. You can tell me how to apologize. I'll do everything you want. Just please don't be angry, okay?"
Sienna was on the verge of begging for forgiveness.
Camille didn't say much and simply glanced at her before letting Sienna leave. Her emotions were truly unstable at the moment, and she didn't want to say anything regrettable in this state. So, it was better to let Sienna go for now.
After Sienna left, Camille was left alone in the villa. Her mood was as gloomy as the overcast sky, and she couldn't see a ray of sunshine through the clouds.
In her heart, she had already found the answers to some questions. However, at the moment, she was unwilling to confront those answers.
Camille spent a stifling afternoon, feeling as if the weight of the world was on her shoulders. She didn't even have dinner that evening and lay quietly in bed.
Back at her own home, Sienna immediately called Rex after leaving Camille's place. She asked Rex where Ayan and he had gone for drinks and then drove there herself.
When Sienna arrived at the club, her face was still tearful. She walked over to Rex, leaned on his side, and spoke with a tone filled with sadness and guilt. "What should I do? Cami won't even talk to me anymore."
Ayan, who had already had several drinks, frowned when he heard Sienna's words. He looked at her with a gentle expression and asked in a low voice, "Did you tell her that you knew?"
Sienna nodded. "I had to. I couldn't keep it a secret. If I didn't tell her now, and she found out later, she might cut ties with me completely. I think there's still a chance now. At least she hasn't cut me off immediately or blocked me. I think my wrongdoing is still relatively mild, at most, it's just knowing and not reporting."
Sienna's words hit deep, and she turned her gaze towards Ayan. Her voice remained calm as she said, "Mr. Simpson, it seems that you're in a bit of a tough spot this time. We all understand Cami's temperament; she rarely gets angry, but when she does, it's not easy to soothe her. Moreover, she has repeatedly told us that she doesn't like being deceived. Now, both you and I have committed the same mistake. Though it may have been well-intentioned, good intentions are only in our perception."
When Ayan had first told her about this, she had considered whether Camille would be upset when she found out. At that time, she had two thoughts. First, Camille might not be upset because their relationship had been getting stronger day by day, and Camille might even be happy. Second, Camille might be upset, but it would only be temporary, and she would eventually forgive them. However, after seeing Camille earlier, Sienna realized that she might have been wrong. She understood that Camille's feelings were deeply hurt by this deception. For Camille, it wasn't just a matter of deception; it was a betrayal, especially coming from someone so close to her.
If it were her, she thought, she probably wouldn't be able to accept it either.
Sienna pursed her lips slightly, and after her words, Ayan remained silent for a good while. Rex, who was beside them, was utterly baffled. His voice dropped a bit as he asked, "What on earth are you two talking about?"
Sienna didn't respond, and Ayan remained silent as well. Their silence was driving Rex to the brink of frustration.
Rex said, "Ayan, this isn't very fair, you brought me here to have a drink, but you won't tell me what's going on. Isn't that a bit unfair to me?"
Ayan didn't reply Rex's words. Instead, he reached out and picked up the glass of liquor in front of him, downing almost half of it. They were drinking whiskey, and the alcohol content was quite high. It hadn't been long since they arrived, but Ayan had already consumed two glasses.
