In the depths of her heart, she silently said, "Camille, I hate you!!!" She had completely lost her mind, devoid of rationality. She didn't even attempt to search for reasons within herself. However, she didn't dare to take any real action, as she was afraid of death. She also feared that if she died, Brody would replace her with someone from the outside. As long as she firmly held onto her position, no other woman from the outside world would ever see the light of day. This was her most important principle.
Camille was oblivious to Page's thoughts, so naturally, she didn't care at all.
Camille was still waiting for a response from Preston, but a whole day had already passed, and it seemed that Preston hadn't made any moves.
After leaving the Armstrong family, Preston didn't go straight back to the company. He didn't have the motivation to work at the moment. His mind was filled with thoughts of how to get Brody to agree to his demands.
With each passing minute and second, Preston felt his opportunities dwindling. He took a silent deep breath, his expression cold, and repeatedly asked himself in his heart, "What should I do? What should I do?"
Quintus noticed Preston's state and felt somewhat concerned. Of course, he hoped that Preston would climb higher, as only then would his own position and prospects become more secure.
Quintus drove the car and spoke softly, "Mr. Walker, did Mr. Armstrong not agree to your request? Doesn't Mr. Armstrong realize that it would be beneficial for him as well? Only when this project is completely in his hands can Mr. Armstrong secure a place in Armstrong Corp. Otherwise, according to the current situation, he will have to follow Horace's arrangements. Isn't that something he doesn't want?"
Preston squinted his eyes, a glimmer of cold indifference flashing in his gaze. He sneered, "He's just a timid coward who thinks everything is a risk. He wants to take advantage and reap the maximum benefits while giving as little as possible."
Quintus echoed, "You're absolutely right. The surname Jian is exactly like that, stingy. In my opinion, you've spoiled him too much. You should let him experience some losses to understand who has treated him well."
Preston found these words enlightening, but his current state of mind was so chaotic that he couldn't come up with any solutions in response to Quintus' suggestion.
He took a silent deep breath, his expression turning cold. He said, "How can we make him suffer?"
"I overheard them, the couple arguing. If this news spreads within Armstrong Corp, will it affect his position? After all, a company's biggest taboo is discord between a couple, especially a couple like Mr. Armstrong and his wife. They have always presented themselves as a loving couple in public!"
Preston didn't think much of Quintus' suggestion. He believed it was just a trivial and petty method, capable of causing only minor disturbances even if it worked. But what he wanted was an immediate solution. However, he had no other options at the moment, so he had to listen to Quintus' advice.
He immediately had Quintus release the news. Although it wasn't a major issue, the fact that Brody and Page, the loving couple, were arguing to the point of divorce meant that their assets would have to be divided if they proceeded with the divorce.
Wouldn't that mean Brody's shares would also be split in half?
If that were the case, the largest shareholder in Armstrong Corp would be set in stone. Currently, Horace held the most shares, but he still had Camille's shares. If Camille regretted and wanted them back, the Armstrong family could potentially become the largest shareholder.
