My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1173

Chapter 1173: Straightforward

Grace: "No, I just feel that you've changed. You've changed to the point where I feel like I don't know you anymore. I'm a bit worried that when we meet, you'll have changed even more."

"Do you fear it?"

"I'm not afraid." Grace smiled.

Grace and Horace chatted for a long time, until Horace finished cooking and they had dinner. It was already late on Horace's side, but Grace's evening was just beginning.

So Grace took the initiative to suggest ending the video call. She said, "Go take a shower and rest early. Let's talk again tomorrow, alright?"

Horace, however, still seemed a little reluctant. He smiled lightly and said, "Do you think I'm annoying you?"

Grace snorted lightly, "You're accusing me wrongly. I'm just worried that you'll get tired."

"I'm not tired. Talking to you actually helps me relax."

"Have you been working hard lately? Is my father causing trouble for you again? Horace, I'm really sorry. My father is just like that, and you..."

"It has nothing to do with you. Why are you apologizing? Haven't Camille and I told you countless times? It's not your problem, and you don't need to apologize to anyone."

"I know, I'm just afraid you're feeling uncomfortable."

"I'm not uncomfortable. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. It's getting late indeed. I'll take a shower, and you can go out for some fresh air, hmm?"

Grace nodded lightly in agreement. After ending the video call, she couldn't help but contact Camille.

She asked Camille, "Cami, I want to ask you something. Has Dad been giving Horace a hard time lately?"

Camille saw the message immediately. She had just finished dinner and was watching a movie with Ayan. Watching movies in the evening when they had nothing else to do was their way of spending time. Since it was raining outside today and they couldn't go out, they naturally resorted to their usual method, watching movies.

When Camille saw Grace's question, she was momentarily stunned. She casually raised her phone and showed it to Ayan, asking, "Has the Armstrong family been causing trouble for Horace lately?"

Ayan read the message clearly and smirked, "Is your sister's brain consumed by love?"

"Love-struck? It does seem like it." Camille smiled faintly, but she was still curious about the earlier question. She asked, "So, have they been causing trouble or not?"

"I'm not sure."

"You're not sure?" Camille clearly didn't believe it. She said, "You really don't know?"

"I'm not Grace. Why should I pay so much attention to someone like Horace? If I were to constantly keep an eye on him, he might suspect that I have ulterior motives." Ayan snorted lightly, his deep gaze fixed on Camille. "Horace is about to collaborate with the Simpson Group, as I mentioned before. If you insist on whether the Armstrong family has been causing trouble for him, it's probably only related to Preston. However, once our collaboration is officially established, I estimate that no one in Armstrong Corp will dare to trouble him for at least the next six months."

Camille was slightly taken aback, giving off an impressed look. She couldn't help but smile and said, "Are you this capable now?"

"I've always been capable," he confidently replied.
