Chapter 823: Penetration

"Enough, I don't want to hear you say these things. Have you forgotten

about Rex so quickly? Aren't you afraid he'll find out what you're doing

now?"

"What should I be afraid of? We've already separated. Besides, isn't

this what you wanted? So why do you use him as an excuse to evade

my words?"

Sienna coldly smirked, her expression unusually bleak.

She looked at Mario, whose face was extremely ugly, without any

reaction. She told Mario, "Brother, I'm tired. If you have nothing else to

say, I'm going to rest."

Without waiting for Mario's response, she turned and went upstairs.

Mario didn't follow her. He just stood there and watched her go in, until

he couldn't see any figure anymore. Then he took out his phone and

made a call, saying, "Find out who the man is that Sienna has been in

contact with."

Mario had an unhappy expression on his face as he walked towards his

car and drove away.

From their conversation, Rex naturally understood the general idea.

Of course, he also heard clearly the words she said that had nothing to

do with him. Although he understood the meaning behind her words, he

couldn't help but feel uncomfortable listening to them.

However, the smile on the corner of his mouth grew deeper and

deeper, eventually becoming uncontrollable.

He stayed in the car for a while, making sure that Sienna wouldn't go

out again and that no one would come to see her before driving away.

He thought he had concealed it very well, but he didn't know that

Camille had already told her about his arrival in Flento City a long time

ago.

Naturally, she also knew that since he had come to Flento City, he

wouldn't miss secretly watching her.

But neither of them would worry about possible misunderstandings

because they had made an agreement.

Although they didn't contact each other, they constantly kept each other

in mind.

Sienna stood on the balcony, watching the black car's headlights light

up before returning to her room.

She sent Camille a voice message, saying, "Darling, thank you! I feel

so energized now. I think I can fight for another five hundred years. I'm

fully charged.”

Camille replied quickly, saying, "You're welcome! Thank your charger!"

Seeing the word “charger,” Sienna couldn't help but laugh.

Her mood also became exceptionally good.

However, her behavior displeased Mario. Starting the next day, working

hours were extended, and she was allowed to leave only after Mario

permitted.

This forced control made Sienna feel extremely oppressed, but she

endured it silently without any complaints or resistance.

This silence didn't mean she truly accepted it. It could also mean that

she was accumulating some kind of strength, ready to launch at any

moment.

Rex returned to Hance City the next afternoon.

Ayan, of course, couldn't personally go to pick him up, but he still

arranged for a driver to go to the airport and pick him up.

Then he was taken directly to Simpson Group.

Rex said on the way, "Let's go home and take a shower and rest for a

bit," but Ayan's driver said, "Mr. Baxter, I'm truly sorry, but Mr. Simpson

insisted that I bring you to Simpson Group. Otherwise, it would be a

mistake on my part. I hope you can understand.”

Rex didn't make things difficult for the driver and simply had his

secretary get off halfway.

Then he followed the driver to Simpson Group.

He couldn't help but comment, "Ayan is really something!"

The driver couldn't help but twitch his lips, refraining from laughing

outright. If he did, he might lose his job.

Upon arriving at Simpson Group, the driver escorted Rex all the way to

the office, behaving as if he feared Rex would try to escape.

In the elevator, Rex couldn't help but ask, “What else did Ayan arrange

for you to do? If I try to run away, will someone immediately come and

stop me?"

"Mr. Baxter, you've misunderstood. Mr. Simpson is just concerned that

you'll be alone in the elevator, so he instructed me to accompany you,"

the driver replied.

"Cut the nonsense. I know who Ayan is,” Rex didn't believe it, having

known Ayan for so many years, they understood each other very well.

However, his guess was correct. The driver simply didn't dare to say it

out loud. Ayan instructed him that if Rex dared to run away halfway, he

should yell, "Stop the thief!"

Although Ayan gave such instructions, the driver didn't dare to offend

Rex. After all, Rex was the CEO of Ward Group. If they offended him,

there would be consequences.

The driver escorted Rex to the office door, knocked on it, and then

opened it for Rex to enter.

Ayan was in the middle of briefing Kian on work when Rex walked in

and accused Ayan, "Mr. Simpson, you've gone a bit too far, haven't

you?"

Ayan glanced at him with indifference, not sensing any excessiveness

in his actions. He replied in a cold tone, "Speak up. What do you want

to tell me in person?”

Rex refused to speak directly. Instead, he walked over to the sofa, sat

down casually, and then said, "Ayan, if you don't treat me to a meal

today, I won't say it. So, it's up to you."

“You really won't say it?"

"Yes, I really won't."

"Fine, then don't say it. Kian, see the guest out.”

Ayan wasn't joking at all. After saying this, he lowered his gaze and

started working, showing no sign of hesitation or reluctance as Rex

prepared to leave. He treated Rex as if he were invisible.

The feeling of being ignored completely stunned Rex. He looked at

Kian, standing by the door, both helpless and dumbfounded. He

shrugged and said, "Kian, look at this. Is he even human? I mean, you

work under this kind of demon. Are you really okay?"

Kian chuckled softly, walked in, poured a cup of coffee for Rex, and

placed it in front of him with a slight smile. He said, "Mr. Baxter, if you

have something to say, please go ahead. Otherwise, Mr. Simpson can

endure until you can't hold it anymore without any wavering."

After Kian finished speaking, he quietly exited the office.

Rex was left speechless for several seconds, then a faint smile

appeared on his face. He had made up his mind and immediately got

up, walking towards Ayan's desk, his attitude and voice completely

different from before. He said softly, "Ayan, I was just joking with you

earlier. Since I promised to help you investigate this matter, I'm

definitely on your side. Whatever I find out, I will tell you without any

reservations.”

Ayan didn't make a sound or respond, just continued to focus on the

documents in his hands. Rex wasn't deterred by this coldness and

disregard. He continued, "Ayan, I've been investigating people related

to Preston. Care to guess what I found?"
