My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1023

Chapter 1023: Surprise

Ayan gently caressed Camille's hair. His expression was difficult to read, his eyes filled with a cold and sinister look, but his voice was gentle as he said, "You don't need to think about this answer. It's not something you should be concerned about. It's something they should think about. Why are they so cruel to you? We can't change others; we can only change ourselves."

Ayan kissed her hair gently. Even though Camille was in his arms, he still felt afraid. That fear clenched his heart, especially now that he recalled it. If the Armstrong family continued to remain stubborn and the Wesley family continued to act in secret, Camille would have already been taken to Chesen City. Although he was confident he could find her, he feared what harm the Wesley family might do to her.

The fear of losing her again weighed heavily on Ayan's heart. His voice grew hoarse as he continued, "In the future, if you want to surprise me, don't keep it a secret from me. Even if you want to surprise me, you should tell me. When you come to find me, I can pretend not to know, understand?"

Camille chuckled at his words. She softly replied, "If I tell you, can it still be called a surprise?"

"As long as you're willing, I can cooperate with you. If I cooperate with you, it will be a surprise. I don't want anything like what happened today to occur again. Do you understand?" His tone was serious, and his deep eyes revealed a trace of gloom. This matter was not over in his heart.

Listening to his voice, Camille finally felt a bit more at ease. In truth, during this entire incident, she hadn't felt much fear. When she realized that something was wrong with that woman, she began to wonder who it might be. However, before she could figure it out, she was taken away, and she had no control over what happened next.

Initially, she had considered many possibilities, but all of them were shattered one by one. She hadn't offended anyone, and even if someone came after her because of Ayan, they wouldn't choose to act at Ayan's territory. The only possibility was that the they were running out of time and would seize any opportunity to achieve their goal.

But she hadn't expected it to be arranged by Brody and Page themselves. This was revealed to her by the man who had slipped up. She wasn't taken back to the Armstrong's villa, and the handwritten divorce declaration was coerced by Brody's threatening phone call.

Then she was taken away by the Wesley family.

Of course, she didn't believe that she had been taken to Chesen City like this because she believed that Ayan would find her before that.

Thinking of Ayan, who was currently by her side, she felt a sense of security.

She reached out and gently wrapped her arms around Ayan's waist, her voice murmuring softly and tenderly, "Ayan, it's so good to have you."

Ayan, upon hearing these words, gave a soft snort and said indifferently, "Now you know how good I am, right? Since you know how good I am, when do you plan to go through the remarriage procedures with me? Do you know that I just went to the Armstrong family, and they tried to use this as a way to kick me out? I couldn't even respond with dignity."

Camille pursed her lips, her expression becoming cold. There was a coolness in her eyes, and her voice was devoid of warmth as she said, "They are good at finding excuses. I'm really curious, besides getting this money, what else can they gain by doing this?"

They dared to offend even Ayan and the Simpson family for the sake of this money. Could they really go to any lengths for money?

Camille became more and more puzzled as she thought about it. Were these the actions of loving parents?

She was also a mother, and she couldn't bear the thought of her child being harmed in any way. So why were Brody and Page so afraid of not gaining anything from her? Even though she was already a mother, they showed no signs of letting her go.

Did they want to squeeze her until there was nothing left to exploit?

Camille thought about all this, and it felt like her heart was bleeding. She should have been used to it by now, but every time Brody and Page presented new challenges, each time the harm she endured was different.

Ayan sensed Camille's discomfort, and he quickly reassured her, saying, "I don't know if they can still get that money now, but I do know that Armstrong Corp will undergo a complete change of ownership. This is the price they should pay. Don't be soft-hearted. Even if you threaten me, I won't agree to let them off."

Ayan preemptively injected this warning into Camille's mind because he was concerned that she might feel sympathetic if she saw the Armstrong family truly left with nothing. He wanted her to know that he wouldn't be swayed no matter what happened.

As they spoke, the car had smoothly pulled up at Franklin Bay.
