Chapter 1365: Sovereignty

However, what Camille did not expect was for Preston to use this incident to cause trouble and stir up trouble for them. Camille was truly remorseful, with a face filled with guilt and unease.

Sienna's expression had always been somewhat vacant, and upon hearing Camille's words, her reaction was not significant. She simply blinked and then gave a faint smile, saying, "Is that so? It doesn't matter to anyone, as there are no impenetrable walls in this world. Besides, it wasn't your doing, so why blame yourself?"

If blame were to be placed, it should fall on Preston and his loose lips.

Despite this, Camille still felt incredibly guilty.

Walking over to Sienna, Camille gently held her hand and said, "I will give you an explanation for this matter." The two locked eyes for a moment, and Sienna nodded gently in response.

The day had started off like any other calm day, but it was disrupted by the supposed "sibling affection" between the President of King Group and the wife of Ward Group's President.

Anewly registered anonymous user on an online forum under the name of The King family posted a story about Mario and Sienna secretly loving each other during their youth, but their separation was due to the influence of The King family. Sienna eventually chose to marry someone else, but Mario couldn't let go.

The story had already taken an unexpected turn at this point. Although it could have been easily explained and clarified, another rumor surfaced half an hour later.

Another individual claiming to be a friend of Mario revealed that Sienna and Mario had conspired to deceive Rex. They put ona show in front of him while scheming behind his back. To keep Rex in the dark willingly, Ayan, who was Rex's good friend, also deceived him along with his wife, Camille.

Rex had become the victim, while Camille, Ayan, Sienna, and Mario were the ones caught in the crossfire of accusations and suspicions.

To the onlookers, it seemed like a band of longtime friends had colluded to dig a pit for their friend. This inadvertently smeared Ayan and Simpson Group, while many pointed out the overly friendly relationship between Camille and Sienna.

Of course, critiques didn't spare the issue of Sienna participating in a design competition and the frequent sightings of her and Camille together. Some said, "It must be true because Camille's close bond with Sienna must have influenced Ayan in making this decision. While marrying Rex, she is also enjoying the love of the man she has secretly admired for years. Isn't this marriage just a cover-up for her true feelings?"

"Camille and Ayan are truly despicable, why would they do such a thing!"

"It must have been Camille who persuaded Ayan, after all, heroes struggle with the beauty (meaning, are tempted) — probably Camille convinced Ayan and then together tricked Rex!"

“Poor Rex, he seems so pitiful; the relationship between the Simpson family and the Ward family wasn't good, and now is the time to test those ties.”

"Can't deny that Sienna and Mario are quite cunning!" "Disgusted by these four people!" "They're all taking advantage of others’ gullibility."

Various comments and messages filled the space, and Camille and Sienna, looking at these nonsensical speculations, could do nothing but shake their heads in disbelief.

The hype surrounding the incident was intense, especially with the identities of those involved being prominent. Ayan, Rex, and Mario, who already had their fair share of gossip in Hance City, were now being dragged into further drama. The rumors spilled over to Flento City, with discussions buzzing on various forums and online communities.

Unaware netizens and bystanders kept discussing, and the individuals who were never meant to sit at the same table were now forced to confront each other.

While the news had only been circulating online for about thirty to forty minutes, the impact was widespread, and the discussions turned unpleasant. This necessitated a meeting among the concerned parties to address the situation.

Camille and Sienna sat next to each other, with Ayan on Camille's left and Rex on Sienna’s left, facing Mario across the table. The atmosphere was heavy, and if it was permissible, they probably could have sat in silence all evening.

Without an appetite for food, Ayan ordered some dishes, but no one made a move to eat. The lack of conversation made the quietness unbearable, prompting Camille to gently tug at Ayan's sleeve, signaling for him to break the silence.

Ayan spoke, "Now that everyone is here, shall we eat first or discuss after?" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
