My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1021

Chapter 1021: Cherish

Brody maintained his calm demeanor and responded, "Ayan, you and Camille are divorced. This matter concerning Camille is now a family matter for the Armstrong family. I'm not sure how to explain this to you. It's Camille's decision, and as her parents, we support her."

"Camille's decision?" Ayan snorted, his voice cold and questioning. "If it's Camille's decision, then where is she?"

Brody replied, "Ayan, I can't tell you that. Whatever happened between you and Camille is something only the two of you know. Camille doesn't want you to know where she is right now, so maybe you shouldn't press the issue. Everyone deserves their own space. You're already divorced, and pursuing her like this may not be appropriate. Let's not completely ruin our relationship between the two families, okay?"

Brody seemed like a father who understood and considered everything for the sake of his daughter, quite different from his usual cold and harsh demeanor towards Camille.

Ayan, of course, didn't believe Brody's words. His gaze was as sharp and icy as a blade, making it uncomfortable to look at him for too long.

Ayan stared at Brody without emotion and questioned, "Who told you that we divorced? Do you have any evidence to prove that we're divorced? Let me tell you, if you don't hand over Camille right now, I can definitely report your actions to the authorities and hold you legally responsible. She is my wife and the mother of my child. What right do you have to interfere in her affairs?"

Ayan's questioning made Brody's face stiffen momentarily. He concealed a mysterious expression in his eyes but stuck to his stance, saying, "I don't know what's really going on between you two, but since Camille told me about your divorce, I believe her. We don't need to continue this conversation. Ayan, even though you and Camille are no longer together, I am still your elder. The Simpson family has a certain level of decorum. Your confrontational tone is hardly appropriate. Besides, if your grandfather were to find out about this, he might not be pleased, would he?"

"Stop using my grandfather to intimidate me. You know what kind of person you are in front of him, you don't need me to remind you," Ayan retorted sharply, showing no respect for Brody as an elder. His tone was firm and unyielding as he continued, "I'm sitting here talking to you civilly right now out of consideration for your father and Grace. Otherwise, I wouldn't need to treat you with any respect."

This was the first time Ayan had confronted Brody and Page with such anger, and it was the first time he refused to treat them as elders. Even though they had mistreated Camille before, he had still shown them basic respect and courtesy because they were Camille's parents and out of consideration for the old Armstrong. However, their recent actions had pushed him to his limit.

Their behavior was nauseating, and they seemed to demand everything from Camille without giving anything in return. Ayan's anger intensified as he thought about how they had treated Camille. He regarded Brody with a piercing and unrelenting gaze, and this blunt confrontation left Brody visibly upset. He asked with a lowered voice, "Ayan, what do you mean by all this? Just because Camille and you are divorced, does it mean you should treat us this way?"

Ayan snorted, "How do you expect me to treat you? Stop the nonsense and hand over Camille. If you do that, I'll consider today's events as if they never happened. Otherwise, I can't guarantee what I might do."

"Are you trying to threaten me right now?"

"If that's how you choose to perceive it, then yes."

Ayan chuckled lightly, his expression cold and indifferent.

Brody hesitated, meeting Ayan's intense gaze. His face turned increasingly unpleasant, and he seemed momentarily lost for words.

Page, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up, saying, "Ayan, your words are a bit too harsh, aren't they? Your divorce with Camille is your own matter. She signed the divorce statement herself, and it has nothing to do with us!"

"Since it has nothing to do with you, then hand over Camille. Don't make me repeat myself, hmm?"

"We don't know where Camille is, and your pressing us for answers won't change that," Page replied indifferently, appearing unfazed by Ayan's words.
