My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1005

Chapter 1005: Auditory Illusion

"I'm worried that she's been pushed to a point where she has no other option by the Armstrong family. Can you check where she is now? Just make sure she's safe. I won't get involved in anything else," Camille explained seriously.

Ayan looked at her deeply and nodded, saying, "Alright."

Ayan immediately called Kian, and Kian's investigation was quite swift, as it wasn't a particularly challenging task. Within a few minutes, he had the results.

Kian said that Grace had moved to Maple Leaves Mansion, and she was living in the same building as Horace. The Armstrong family was also searching for her, but they hadn't found any leads.

Camille was slightly surprised by this information. She then turned to Ayan and said, "Let's not let the Armstrong family find her. If she's safe now, that's all that matters."

Although Camille didn't have a deep relationship with Grace, it had thawed somewhat between them, and she couldn't just stand by if something was wrong.

She had always felt that Grace was too obedient, lacking her own opinions. Everything she did seemed to be in line with what Brody and Page wanted. It didn't seem right.

Now that Grace had taken the first step on her own, Camille's role was to lend her a helping hand.

Ayan understood Camille's concern and immediately gave instructions to Kian.

Ayan looked at Camille and asked, "Are you worried about her?"

"I'm not worried anymore. She's with Horace, so it should be okay. Otherwise, Horace wouldn't have helped her escape from the Armstrong family," Camille replied calmly.

Although Grace wasn't a child anymore, if Horace wasn't worth her trust and taking this step, she wouldn't have done it. Now that she had chosen this path, it meant that Horace was probably treating her well.

Camille sighed silently, her emotions a bit low as she said, "Does the Armstrong family have to go to such lengths? They can ignore me, but do they have to treat Grace this way?"

She couldn't understand what Brody and Page were thinking or why they had to do things this way.

Ayan's gaze was gentle as he spoke softly, "There's no need to overthink what others are thinking or why they do that. We only need to focus on ourselves, have a clear conscience, and follow our own hearts. As for the rest, let it unfold naturally."

Camille nodded gently, her expression still a bit downcast. She replied, "Actually, I don't necessarily need to know their motives. I just feel that what they're doing is too hurtful. When they've completely hurt others, how will they justify it?"

"That's their business. We don't need to worry. Just remember, even if in the future, you choose to ignore the Armstrong family, no one can blame you for it. Understand?" Ayan's gaze was firm as he looked at Camille, his words and his eyes making it clear that Camille had done nothing wrong.

Camille nodded, her attitude changing a lot because of Ayan. He had filled in many of her inner vulnerabilities, allowing her to stand tall and say no to anyone.

In the past, Camille often had rebellious thoughts but rarely expressed them. She struggled with finding the right words and worried about whether the other person would accept her views.

However, Ayan taught her an important lesson: that as long as she believed in what she was saying or doing, it was valid. He emphasized the idea that everyone should first be true to themselves before considering the opinions of others.

However, the Armstrong family's matter was far from over. Grace couldn't be reached, and without Camille's presence, the dinner with the Wesley family lost its purpose. It was already past nine in the evening, but tension still hung heavily over the Armstrong family.

Brody paced back and forth in the living room, his entire demeanor exuding cold anger. He glared at Page, who was sitting on the sofa, and sternly questioned her, "What's the use of crying? When something goes wrong, all you do is cry. Shouldn't we be finding a solution? The Wesley family is waiting for us to bring Camille over. We thought Grace would be sensible and help us, but look what's happened. She's gone missing. Is this the result of your upbringing? How did you raise her?"
