Camille neither denied nor confirmed, her expression becoming more tense.
In a low, hoarse voice, Ayan gently said, "Tomorrow, have Sienna or Kian accompany you to visit the Armstrong family. Remind them that you have no connection with Preston. Tell them that if anything happens, it's not your concern. Remember to record it, consider it a talisman for yourself. After all, the Armstrong family has no shame."
As Ayan mentioned the Armstrong family, his expression turned icy. He seriously doubted that without the old Armstrong, Armstrong Corp would have collapsed long ago. His disdain and hatred for Brody and Page's actions were evident, especially their focus solely on self-interest. How could he not despise such people?
Although his words about the Armstrong family weren't flattering, Camille understood that it was because of her. The Armstrong family had been cold and indifferent to her, to put it mildly. More accurately, it was heartless and lacked any familial warmth.
Camille pursed her lips slightly, saying to Ayan, "When I remind the Armstrong family, they'll probably brush it off as jealousy. They might even think I'm trying to rain on their parade."
"Let them think what they want. As long as you remind them and they respond, whatever happens afterward has nothing to do with you. I'm just concerned that if you don't remind them, they might have other thoughts." After all, the Armstrong family was skilled at shifting blame, and Ayan didn't want anything unfavorable to happen to Camille.
Under Ayan's guidance, Camille reluctantly agreed, planning to bring Sienna along the next morning. However, for safety, Ayan arranged for a driver to take them, ensuring they had someone looking out for them.
Camille nodded in agreement.
After Ayan finished his shower, they both went to bed. Camille nestled gently in his embrace, but her mind was still occupied with the day's events. She asked Ayan, "Preston won't really succeed, will he?"
She was referring to whether Preston would manage to push Horace out of Armstrong Corp.
Ayan assured Camille, "Don't think too much about it. Horace's abilities far surpass our estimates. Besides, when he invested in Armstrong Corp, he signed an agreement with them. The terms of that agreement are probably indecipherable to the Armstrong family. If they showed it to Preston, I doubt he'd be willing to cooperate with them."
Ayan's lips curled slightly, his eyes narrowing. The depth of his gaze became colder. Camille's worries gradually dissipated after hearing his explanation.
He was willing to entrust Armstrong Corp to Horace, not just because of business reasons but also because of the relationship between Horace and Grace, which Camille could trust. As for Preston, despite their long acquaintance, recent events had introduced an indescribable element of doubt into Camille's mind.
The matter Ayan spoke of haunted Camille's dreams that night, centering around Preston's involvement with Armstrong Corp. Consequently, the next morning, the first thing Camille did upon waking was to make arrangements to meet Sienna.
She messaged Sienna, who hadn't replied yet. Camille quickly went to freshen up and change clothes. Ayan returned from outside, calling her downstairs for breakfast.
Seeing her already prepared, he asked in surprise, "Why are you up so early?"
"I'm going to the Armstrong family in a while," Camille replied calmly.
"Going directly after breakfast?"
"Yes, the sooner I resolve it, the sooner I'll feel at ease."
"All right then, let's go downstairs and eat now," Ayan suggested in a low voice.
