Chapter 1156: Outsider


    Chapter 1156: Outsider


    After Sienna finished speaking, Mrs. King didn''t respond immediately, as if she was considering


    something.


    Out of Sienna''s sight, Mrs. King''s gaze unconsciously turned to Mario. Mario narrowed his eyes slightly


    and a hint of indifference shed in his eyes, but he quickly reacted and gave Mrs. King a look.


    Only then did Mrs. King speak slowly: "I have time tonight, so why don''t we have dinner together? Our


    family hasn''t gathered for a long time now. As for your husband, let''s discuss it over dinner tonight?


    Mom knows you''re already married to him, so I think we should meet formally. Let''s find a day to meet


    the Ward family officially."


    Sienna couldn''t find anything wrong with what Mrs. King said because it was something only a mother


    would say.


    Sienna felt this way but didn''t know why she had this feeling that she might be dreamingpared to


    herst conversation and meeting with Mrs. King.


    She thought about it and gently pinched her thigh; it hurt so it wasn''t just a dream.


    Sienna didn''t stay silent for too long and quickly responded: "Okay then tonight! Let me choose the


    ce."

    "No need," said Mrs. King gently," let your brother handle these things since you are just a girl who


    shouldn''t worry about such matters; you can sit here with me while waiting for dinner!"


    Mrs. King is very gentle even though her husband left early on in their marriage. Mario has always


    been very kind towards her too. He never lets her worry about anything. So even though Sienna is an


    adopted daughter of the Kings'', Mrs. King treats her well. She has raised Sienna like royalty, and


    everyone around them talks behind their backs saying how lucky Sienna is because she met the


    Kings''. Because of how gentle and caring Mrs. King is, Sianna''s life has been like that of princesses''.


    Therefore, Mrs. King leaves all decision-making tasks such as booking restaurants or other things up to


    Mario. Sianna only needs to wait patiently while eating or drinking. But sometimes, Mrs. King can be


    quite domineering by making one decision after another without consulting others first .


    Your strong personality has taken away Sienna''s freedom to make decisions and made her feel like


    she can''t do anything. It wasn''t until she met Camille that she saw how independent and capable


    someone could be. Watching Camille handle things on her own, Sienna realized how powerless she


    was and felt like a useless waste of space.


    But Sienna is a quick learner, and following Camille''s lead, she learned a lot. Maybe it was because


    she was too obedient that rebellion eventually surfaced.


    Tonight''s dinner is supposed to be just for Mrs. King''s family, which doesn''t include Rex. If Rex were


    included in the invitation, Mrs. King would have agreed when asked earlier by Sienna.


    Sienna sighed silently before calling Rex to tell him about the dinner with Mrs. King and Mario tonight.


    Rex is not one to force her into anything ufortable or difficult; even when he heard it was with Mrs.


    King and Mario, he only asked in a low voice if he should apany her.


    Sienna replied: "Mom wants to have dinner alone with me first then discuss meeting your parents."


    "Okay," said Rex softly as if feeling wronged but still smiling lightly at the same time.


    Sienna couldn''t refuse him either: "I''ll call you after I finish eating."


    "Don''t forget," joked Rex yfully but also reminding her not to let anyone else send her home instead


    of him - both of them knew who that person might be.


    While Sienna has dinner ns tonight, Rex will be left alone so he invites Ayan and Camille out for


    dinner at their restaurant instead of letting them fly off together somewhere else without him.


    Camille found out about this while on their way there because they already knew about Sienna''s ns


    for tonight.


    Ayan focused more on Mrs. King wanting to reconnect with Sienna again sinceing back Hance


    City; his response being "Mario seems pretty smart!"


    Camille didn''t quite understand what Ayan meant by his words so naturally looked over towards him


    asking "What are you talking about?"


    Ayan spoke lightly, "Isn''t Mario intentionally creating distance between Sienna and Rex? Sienna can


    refuse Mario, but she cannot refuse his mother. After all, she has taken care of Mario since he was


    young. If she is rejected, won''t the King family me her? Besides, she is not a heartless person. So


    isn''t this Mario''s goal?"


    Listening to Ayan''s words, Camille also froze for a moment. Her expression was overly cold as she


    looked at Ayan and asked,"Is that really what''s on Mario''s mind?"


    "I don''t know what he is thinking exactly," replied Ayan calmly,"But based on my understanding of him, I


    don''t think he will give up so easily. If it were that easy to give up, do you think he would have gone


    through so much trouble toe to Hance City?"


    Naturally not.


    Sometimes only men understand men because they can guess from the first-person perspective of


    another man''s thoughts; just like how girls understand each other''s thoughts.


    There was no sound during Camille''s brief silence. After scanning her with his peripheral vision for a


    moment, Ayan subconsciously reached out and held her hand."I know you are worried about Sienna


    and concerned about the rtionship between Sienna and Rex too. So I''ll tell you directly whatever is


    in my mind without any concealment. You''d better remind Sienna not to lose sight of her original


    intention or persistence due to familial pressure in front of her eyes. Although it may only be my


    spection now, I believe that the final result will be almost certain."


    This wasn''t something concerning Camille or The Simpson family. Ayan actually didn''t want to get


    involved too much even though it had something to do with Rex. Because what he said, Rex could see


    through it too. In terms of what Rex wants or ns, it''s ultimately his own decision. He''s just a friend,


    and considered an outsider.


    However, Camille seemed very concerned about Sienna''s situation. So in front of Camille, Ayan would


    say more than usual.


    After hearing hisfort, Camille nodded lightly. Her expression showed obvious disappointment. She


    took a deep breath before looking at Ayan again."Actually, I''m not worried if Sienna will change. I''m just


    afraid that Mario has too many tricks up his sleeve. What else will he do after creating distance


    between them now?"


    Ayan pulled Camille into his embrace and said, "No matter what happens, as long as she stays true to


    herself and is honest with Rex, everything will work out. Right?"


    "Right," Camille agreed. "Honesty is key. But what about you? Have you been honest with me, Mr.


    Simpson?" She looked up at Ayan with clear eyes full of earnestness and anticipation.


    Ayan hesitated for a moment before answering, "I haven''t always beenpletely honest with you,


    Camille. But I promise to be from now on."


    Camille smiled softly and leaned into him again. "That''s all I can ask for," she said.


    As they stood there in each other''s arms, the city bustled around them but they were lost in their own


    world - a world where honesty was the foundation of love and trust was the glue that held it together.
