Chapter 1142: Searching


    Chapter 1142: Searching


    The two women exchanged a nce, and the bolder one asked, "Who are you? What''s it to you?"


    Camille chuckled lightly, her voice airy, "Who I am doesn''t really matter. What does matter is that I''m


    the person you were discussing. So, even if I didn''t want to talk, it''s hard to swallow this pride."


    After Camille spoke, the women''s memories returned to normal, and they looked at Camille with some


    disbelief, a hint of incredulity in their eyes.


    Camille didn''t linger and calmly interrupted their conversation. She said, "It''s quite embarrassing to be


    caught like this. So, if you''re going to gossip behind someone''s back, you might want to check the


    surroundings in case you run into the person involved. Since you''re so curious about whether he hits


    people or not, let me tell you-he doesn''ty a hand on anyone, let alone domestic violence. Although


    we are divorced, we are engaged in a new game. He is pursuing me!"


    After this string of words, Camille raised her foot and walked away.


    It wasn''t until her figurepletely disappeared that the two women btedly came back to their


    senses.


    They exchanged nces and ultimately dared not say anything more.


    Meanwhile, Camille had just returned to the lounge from the restroom. As soon as she sat down, the


    lounge door was pushed open from the outside.


    Apart from Camille, Sienna, two assistants, and the assistants they had hired, the room now had


    another unexpected visitor. Everyone subconsciously looked towards the door.


    When the person who opened the door was identified, everyone was stunned. Camille instinctively


    asked, "Crystal?"


    Crystal, with a worried expression, looked at Camille and asked, "Are you okay?"


    Camille furrowed her brow, "I''m fine!"


    Camille didn''t quite understand the meaning behind Crystal''s question.


    Crystal stepped forward, looking at Camille, "Are you really okay? He didn''t harm you, did he?"


    Camille began to understand what she meant.


    Camille smiled, "Did you see those gossips online?"


    Crystal nodded lightly, responding, "Yes, I just saw them. Are those true?"


    "Of course not true. How could they be true!" Camille chuckled, "Never believe baseless things, even if


    you see and hear them with your own eyes and ears."


    "But thank you for caring. Good luck with thepetition!"


    Camille looked at Crystal, a bit puzzled about why Crystal acted this way. Their friendship didn''t seem


    to have reached this level yet.


    Camille sighed silently, holding back many unspoken questions.


    After Crystal left, Sienna started curiously inquiring, "Why did she suddenly care so much about you?


    She''s almost catching up to me. Do you guys have some kind of connection in private? Let me tell you,


    Camille, if you dare to have a better friend than me, I''ll show you how I can cry!"


    Sienna snorted lightly, wearing an expression of anger, unhappiness, and the need to beforted as


    she looked at Camille.


    Camille, with a helpless smile, said, "I don''t know either. So, what are you trying to say now? I''m as


    confused as you are."


    Camille sighed lightly, wearing a rather mysterious expression on her face. After all, she was genuinely


    surprised. She hadn''t met Crystal many times, so Crystal''s actions were quite intriguing.


    Sienna said, "Maybe she thinks you''re Ayan''s wife and wants to please you?"


    "I don''t know, but I don''t think I give off that vibe, right? She seems like she doesn''tck money!"


    "Who wouldin about having too much money?"


    "You''ve got a point!"


    Camille said casually, but there wasn''t much agreement in her mind.


    The two sighed silently because thepetition was about to begin, and, of course, they didn''t dwell


    on this matter.


    After about twenty minutes, Sienna was ready to go on stage. Camille apanied her out of the


    lounge and waited backstage. Camille cheered Sienna on, telling her not to be nervous and to treat it


    like any other day.


    After exchanging a hug, Sienna''s phone rang. It was Rex calling. Camille didn''t interrupt their


    conversation and just informed Sienna''s assistant before heading to the audience seat.


    Before she reached the audience seat, Kian noticed her and quickly came over to greet her, "Mrs.


    Simpson, let me take you there!"


    Camille didn''t refuse because she wanted to watch Sienna.


    She didn''t sit directly in the judge''s seat but chose a spot in the audience closest to the judges.


    Ayan''s gaze subconsciously turned back, but Camille didn''t look at him, clearly expressing her


    displeasure.


    Seeing her sulking, Ayan found it somewhat amusing. Since there was a bit of distance, he couldn''t go


    over to coax her. He could only let her be angry for now.


    The designpetition officially began. The host exchanged pleasantries, and then the designers took


    turns going on stage to introduce their designs.


    There were a total of fifty designers in thispetition, all of whom had passed the preliminary rounds.


    Sienna was in the top ten, and she quickly went on stage. In a brief few minutes, she handled it well,


    not wasting a single second.


    After finishing, she bowed to the audience and then turned to leave.


    Camille''s gaze swept back and forth among the judges, seeing their reactions, and she felt a bit


    relieved. At least it seemed there was a chance for Sienna to enter the next round.


    She wasn''t worried that Sienna wouldn''t make it to the next round, just nervous in general. After all,


    every step had to be considered for the mostplete oue.


    Camille took a silent deep breath, then heard the host introducing Crystal. She was still wearing the


    outfit she had on in the lounge, standing on the stage exuding confidence and vitality. The theme of her


    work was "Searching."


    She briefly introduced it, and it was evident that she had put all her effort into the work. However, she


    only used a few sentences to summarize it verbally.


    Camille didn''t watch the introductions of all the designers. She stayed in the audience for a while, then


    stood up and returned to the lounge.


    Pushing open Sienna''s lounge door, Sienna was nervously pacing back and forth. Seeing Camille


    return, she immediately rushed up and asked, "How was it? How was it? How do you feel?"


    Camille smiled lightly, saying, "Not bad, very good. You did great!"


    "Really?"

    "Of course, would I lie to you?"


    Sienna finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, Sienna believed Camille because Camille


    wouldn''t tell lies just tofort her in crucial moments.


    Rex also sent a congrattory message, and the two chatted sweetly for a while.


    After Sienna finished chatting with Rex, Camille looked at her and asked, "Should I go and say a few


    words of encouragement to Crystal? After all, she just showed concern for me. Do I need to respond?"
