My Ex-husband Begs Me Back
Chapter 1367 Subtle

Chapter 1367 Subtle

Next, concerning the Ward family, the Ward family treats Sienna very well. She is very concerned about what the Ward family's parents might think of this matter, as Mr. Ward and Mrs. Ward have just made many calls to Rex, to which he casually replied without any problem.

Sienna has her own worries and thoughts, so she cannot just sit idly by.

She can only coax Rex, but Rex is not willing at all.

Rex remains silent, and Sienna can only softly coax him. Eventually, she says, "How about I stay on the phone with you, and then I'll leave. This way, no matter what is said, you'll know, okay?"

Perhaps he was persuaded, as Rex did not resist and even loosened his grip on her hand gradually. Seizing the opportunity, Sienna withdrew her hand, saying, "I'll step out for a moment, no more than two minutes."

With that, she got up.

The call had already started.

Upon leaving the private room, Rex's expression remained indifferent, and Ayan calmly remarked, "Stop pretending. Sienna has already left, so who are you pretending for now?"

His words were merciless, and there was a hint of disdain that he couldn't contain.

Camille wondered if he was being too harsh and thought about reminding Ayan discreetly to be more careful. However, before she could even raise her eyes, she heard Rex lowly grumble, "Ayan, I am the victim here. Don't you owe me something for this?"

Ayan didn't even spare a glance, merely stating indifferently, "You don't seem like a victim to me. Besides, haven't you already been compensated? As far as I know, because you have the identity of a victim, the Ward Group has profited significantly. So, how can you still have the audacity to ask me for compensation?"

"Ayan, you've changed. It's quite heartless of you to say that. At the moment, it seems like I'm the victim in this situation. Once everyone reflects on it later, they'll just see me as a joke."

Rex was joking with himself. In truth, he didn't have much reaction to this incident. Perhaps it was due to growing up in such a family and environment, where he and Ayan had long developed a resistance to oppression. This minor incident didn't stir up many waves for him.

Originally, Camille thought he might be somewhat upset, as nobody wants to be caught up in public opinion. However, she now realized she had overestimated his feelings. Given the circumstances, Camille chose not to speak and let the two men quarrel.

However, during the call, the sound of a conversation suddenly came from the phone, which was Rex's. Sienna had dialed her own number just before leaving and left the phone on the table, so Camille could faintly hear some voices.

She decided to discreetly put the call on speaker. The two men who were talking paused when they heard the unexpected sound.

Mario's voice came through the phone, his tone calm as he asked Sienna, "Sienna, by now you should know how many people have been hurt and implicated in this matter. Setting aside whether Rex will be laughed at, Camille will also suffer significant harm. Especially now, she is already surrounded by criticism. If this matter escalates further, Camille will undoubtedly face more disdain. Even though it was not my intention, this is the situation. So, do you want to give me a different answer?"

An answer.

What answer?

Sienna naturally understood. As she listened to Mario's words, the three individuals sitting in the private room fell into a contemplative silence.

Especially Rex, who had just slightly recovered some color in his face, now looked particularly gloomy and unattractive.

Camille pursed her lips, feeling nervous, fearing that Rex might rush out to confront Mario. His words were more subtle than directly asking Sienna to divorce Rex. They carried a threat that could shake hearts, filled with many interests and consequences.

Camille knew Sienna very well. They were of the same kind, thinking similarly-willing to endure suffering but not willing to see their closest ones suffer. Therefore, Camille was also worried about how Sienna would respond.

Would Mario's words affect her?

Camille's grip on the chopsticks tightened, and along with Rex's undeniable ominous aura, the atmosphere in the room became heavy, making everyone feel extremely uncomfortable. After Mario's words, Sienna remained silent for a few seconds before speaking calmly, "So, what you're saying is if my answer is not what you want, you'll replay this whole situation?" Sienna met Mario's gaze, her eyes icy and her face devoid of any expression.

Her stance was clear, evident to Mario. Nevertheless, he persisted, "Sienna, It's not a matter of whether I want to replay this. I just want to tell you about the consequences if this matter erupts completely. Do you not care about losing Camille as a friend? Or are you really willing to sacrifice this good friend for Rex?"

"I don't have the power or ability to protect anyone. After all, Camille now has Ayan, and Rex can protect himself. But I, no matter how this ends up, am the one most affected. So, I'm truly curious. Are you seeking revenge against me out of love turned into hatred? Or is it because you can't live without me, so you're intentionally causing harm to me?"

"If it's the former, feel free to seek revenge. Once I have nothing left to harm, you'll be satisfied. If it's the latter, I find your dependency repulsive." Sienna was merciless. Her words held no tact, and she did not care about the effect or Mario's feelings upon hearing them.

Standing tall, the distance between them was not great, but due to the significant height difference, Sienna had to raise her head to meet his gaze. However, she was indifferent and did not bother to lift her head, her voice growing increasingly cold, "If you truly seek revenge, then do it wholeheartedly. After all, this matter is already public knowledge. Even if PR clarifies it now, the discussions about me and those around me won't change."
