My Ex-husband Begs Me Back -
Chapter 247: Track
Ayan said in a cold voice, “Would you want to stay and eat with us?”“Nope, it's not up to her.” Rex narrowed his eyes and gave Bella a coldlook. “Are you familiar with them?”
He didn't want to humor her at all.
Bella's face stiffened and she got silent.
Rex looked at Ayan, “I'm gonna go.”
“Well.” Ayan murmured.
Rex left first, followed by Bella.
The room was particularly quiet. Camille looked at Sienna next to hersubconsciously, only to see her eating as nothing happened. When metCamille's gaze, she asked with a smile, “Why are you looking at me?Enjoy your dinner. I'm fine.”
Camille looked cold and worried.
Ayan volunteered to explain, “I didn't call him.”
“Well, that's alright. What does it matter? Couldn't I come to Hance Cityjust because of him?"
Sienna didn’t mind at all. However, according to what Camille knewabout her, the more indifferent she was, the upset she was.
The atmosphere became gloomy when Rex and Bella appeared.
On the way home, Sienna spoke actively. And she almost wrote thewords “I'm fine” on her head for Camille to read.
Sienna lived in grandma's apartment. Camille was worried about her soshe wanted to be with her. However, Sienna saw through and refusedher, “Well, I'm really fine. My heart is not made from glasses. I know it'sall in the past. I'm supposed to look forward. I'm really tired today and Iwant to go to bed early. I have to work for you tomorrow!”
Camille pursed her lips and twisted her eyebrows slightly, “Call me ifyou need me.”
“I gett.”
She nodded and entered with Camille gazing after her.
She gave Camille a faint smile as she closed the door but on closingthe door, the smile disappeared immediately without any expressionleaving in her face.
She thought she could forget the man thoroughly but now she realizedthat so-called oblivion was just because no one mentioned him, whichmeant she had nothing to do with him. However, she never reallydeleted the person from her memory and her heart.
Back to the apartment, Camille was still a bit worried and asked, “IsSienna really fine?"
“Do you want to be with her?”
Ayan asked in a low voice. Instead, Camille shook her head. It wouldbe better to let her calm down alone.
But she a little curious, “Why did Rex know we were eating atDarkmoor? Did he arrange for somebody to follow Sienna?”
“I don't think so. Maybe the waiter mentioned us in front of him. Hethought that it was just the two of us and came over to say hello.”
“He greeted us with Bella, did we know her well?"
Camille was defensive apparently and didn't like Bella very much.Ayan smiled and reached out to take her into his arms, asking in a lowvoice, “I'll remind him not to meet with us with Bella, alright?”
Camille didn’t say anything, but it was obvious that she did think so inher heart.
After all, she was Sienna’s best friend. They should be of one mind.Sienna was sleepless that night. She tossed and turned but couldn't fallasleep at all. Finally, she got up and ordered a drink. After that, shenestled alone by the floor-to-ceiling window and slipped one by another.She thought she would fall asleep when she got drunk. However, themore she drunk, the more sober she was. At the end, she was stillawake. She only knew her whole body was uncomfortable but her braincouldn't think at all.
At three o'clock in the middle of the night, Sienna was taken to thehospital because she drank too much and caused an alcohol overdose.It was almost dawn after a series of tests. Sienna had her stomachpumped and the anesthetic still lingered on. So, Camille and Ayan satdown on the sofa to wait for her.
Ayan hugged the woman beside him and whispered, “Close your eyesand rest for a while. I'll call you when she wakes up, alright?”
Camille shook her head, “I'm not sleepy.”
“Don’t think about it too much. She is already an adult. There arealways some decisions that even the best friend couldn't make for her.”Camille was silent and she didn’t reply for him.
Even though she knew Ayan had a point, she felt guilty for not takinggood care of Sienna.
Camille didn't take a break nearly half the night, she couldn't hold backher eyes and fell asleep an hour later.
Ayan put her on the couch, covered her with his coat and turned up thetemperature of the air conditioner before exiting the word.
He picked up his phone and hesitated for a second. Eventually, hecalled Rex.
Rex had not yet woken up at the time. He was surprised to receive hiscall, “Ayan, what's up?”
“Are you alone?”
“What are you talking about? Of-course I'm alone. Will you accompanyme?”
Rex said with a sarcastic smile.
Ayan said indifferently, “Sienna is in the hospital. She had her stomachpumped just now and hasn't woken up yet.”
“What's wrong with her?”
“I don’t know what's wrong with her. I just know she was poisoned foralcohol at midnight.”
Ayan spoke slightly but Rex listened seriously.
He kept silent because he didn't know what to say.
Then Ayan said, “It's your call.”
He cut off the call without giving him a chance to talk.
Sienna woke up around eight o'clock a.m. Ayan left for work andCamille stayed here herself.
Sienna opened her eyes and saw Camille sitting next to her hospitalbed. She reached out and pulled down Camille's arms gently andwhispered, “Camille ..."
Hearing her voice, Camille looked at her immediately, “How are youfeeling now? Do you feel uncomfortable?”
Sienna shook her head, “Sorry to trouble you again.”
“There is no need for us to say such words.”
Sienna smiled faintly, looking pale for having her stomach pumped justnow.
She couldn't eat anything yet but she was very thirsty. Camille didn’tdare to bring her water, so she had to ask the doctor.
Within half a minute of Camille's departure, the door was pushed openagain.
Considering it was Camille, Sienna asked, “So fast?”
Then she looked over her shoulder, only to replace that it wasn't Camillewho came in, but Rex.
Looking at each other, her face stiffened slightly and said indifferently,“Why are you here?”
“You ...Are you OK?"
Rex asked in a low voice and looked calm.
Sienna pressed her lips and said lightly, “I'm fine.”
The atmosphere quieted down.
Neither spoke again.
Rex was standing while Sienna was lying down.
They stayed until Camille came in with water. On seeing Rex, she wasstunned and asked, “Why are you here?”
“I'm here to visit her. That's alright. You stay with her and I won't botheryou.” That done, he looked at Sienna and said, “Have a good rest.”Sienna didn't reply for him. The interaction between the two wasparticularly awkward.
After Camille gazed after Rex, she walked to the bed with water and satdown. Then she took a straw and put it in Sienna’s mouth.
She didn’t ask any questions, which made Sienna a bit uneasy.Sienna said, “Don’t you want to say something?”
“What to say?”
“Don’t you want to know what I'm thinking in my mind?"
“Well, what are you thinking?”
It seemed that Camille didn’t care about it at all.
Sienna ignored her “perfunctory” and simply said with a frown, “I feelthat I'm duplicitous. I can't live up to what I say.”
Probably everyone will have the trouble that it is always difficult toachieve what they said easily.
Camille spent the morning with Sienna in the hospital. She was fineand would be released in the afternoon. But she had to keep a light dietfor the next two days.
At noon, grandma called and asked Camille to come over. Making surethat it was alright for Sienna to stay alone, she went to see grandma.Grandma rarely came to Camille, so she was a bit worried, “Grandma,is something wrong with you? Shall I ask Dr. Ellis to come over?”
