My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1051

Chapter 1051: Blood and Money

Camille gazed at Page, and every word from Page's mouth had the tone of reconciliation. Her goal today was to make amends.

Camille could read this attitude, but she sensed more than just an attempt at reconciliation. There was something else beneath the surface, something that puzzled her.

She couldn't quite fathom why Page's transformation was so drastic. Was it genuine concern for her?

Camille bit her lip and allowed the thought to linger for a moment but then pushed it away. She didn't dare entertain where such thoughts might lead.

Her expression, already tense with uncertainty, grew slightly stiffer as she looked at Page. Her voice softened, though there was still no warmth in it as she asked, "So, you've come to apologize and make amends, haven't you?"

"Yes, I'm here to apologize, to say sorry to you. Can you forgive me this time, Mom? I know I've been in the wrong. I understand if you don't believe me, given my track record, but I'll show you my sincerity and my change. Is that okay?" Page replied.

"Very well!" Camille said with a faint smile, though her eyes remained unyielding.

Page was taken aback by Camille's response. She had prepared a whole bunch of words but now found herself at a loss. She looked at Camille, who had easily accepted her apology, and was momentarily stunned. She wasn't sure what to do next.

Camille observed Page's silence and blinked softly, "Why aren't you saying anything? Didn't you say you'd show me your sincerity?"

Page hesitated for a moment and then quickly picked up some pastries and coffee that were on a nearby table. "I brought these for you and your colleagues."

Camille glanced at them and then gave Yessica a meaningful look. "Share these with everyone."

Yessica was also surprised, realizing Camille wasn't joking, and she reached out to take the pastries.

Page took out another set of snacks and handed them to Camille. "I prepared these for you. Milk taro bubble tea is what many girls like these days. Give it a try. And this cake is mango cake; it's delicious. Please have a taste."

Camille remained motionless, simply looking at Page. Her expression hadn't changed in the slightest. She coolly replied, "I'm allergic to mangoes. When I returned from Flento, I had to rush to the hospital in the middle of the night because I had your mango pudding. Don't you remember?"

It had been a long time ago, but Camille would never forget it. Mango pudding was a dessert that Page had just learned to make at the time. Camille had considered declining but, seeing Page's attitude change so abruptly, she hadn't been able to refuse. To please Page, she had eaten it, and in the middle of the night, she had ended up at the hospital due to an allergic reaction, itching all over and running a fever. Page had accused her of doing it intentionally to make her feel guilty.

Camille had been unable to say anything at the time, as she had been too preoccupied to explain.

Since then, she had never eaten something she didn't like just to please Page because it had only made their relationship more strained.

Although they had never been close.

Camille's response to Brody and Page had been the same since she could remember.

Their relationship had always been distant.

Even if Brody and Page never contacted her again, she wouldn't feel any discomfort.

At that time, Camille didn't know why. She still didn't know the true reason now, but she had come to terms with it. If something couldn't be achieved, there was no point in forcing it. It would only make everyone feel tired.

Because of Camille's words, Page's hand, holding the things, remained suspended in the air. The two locked eyes, their expressions filled with complexity.

After several minutes of this silence, Page finally spoke, "I'm sorry, Cami. It was all my fault. It was because of me at that time, it was my mistake."

Camille gave a faint smile and took the things from Page. "How can it be your fault? You couldn't have known about my mango allergy, so it's not your fault. You just shouldn't have bought me mango cake now."

Seeing this, Page was taken aback. Of course, she didn't want Camille to consume it. If Camille had an allergic reaction and ended up in the hospital because of what she had brought, their relationship would worsen.
