My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1233

Chapter 1233: Right and Wrong

She couldn't help but burst into laughter. She looked at Page and said, "You claim it's for my own good, but can you explain how it's actually for my benefit?"

Page was instantly speechless, his face turning pale.

Camille didn't give Page a chance to speak again. She said indifferently, "Do you feel completely incapable of providing a single example of how you have been good to me? Honestly, I can't think of any either. In my memory, it seems you have a special fondness for Grace. As for me, there is certainly no love left, not even a trace of maternal affection you have ever shown me. I used to think it was favoritism, but I only recently realized that it's not favoritism, it's selfishness. You genuinely love Grace, but I would rather not be Grace because having everything under your control and oppression is truly pathetic."

She had completely lost herself, devoid of any personal thoughts, living like a mere walking corpse.

Camille had seen Grace at her unhappiest moments, and that's when she realized that sometimes experiences aren't necessarily good.

Camille sometimes felt fortunate that she lived for herself, without subjecting herself to much suffering or forcing herself to do things she didn't like.

Camille's words struck Page to the core. Originally, Page hadn't yet recovered from Grace's departure, even though she had accepted the fact that Grace had run away from home. But she hadn't given up on finding Grace.

However, she had no news whatsoever, as if the person had vanished into thin air.

So when Camille accused Page of not providing the motherly love that Grace truly needed, Page instinctively asked, "Did Grace tell you all this? Do you know where she is? Camille, did you hide her because you're jealous of her?"

Camille found it laughable. She let out a mocking laugh and asked indifferently, "Do you think I need someone to tell me these things? Aren't they obvious facts? Otherwise, if you were so good to Grace, why did she run away from home without letting you know anything about her whereabouts? You should reflect on whether you've treated her as your own creation. You never think about what suits her, but rather impose your choices on her."

"This is our business, none of your concern."

"Yes, indeed, it has nothing to do with me. So why are you coming to me now?"

"Do you know where she is?"

"Do you think I would know? Our relationship has become colder because of you. We don't even have a way to contact each other, so why would she tell me?" Camille certainly wouldn't admit it. The reason she said so much wasn't to vent her own dissatisfaction but to tell Page that what she was doing for Grace wasn't truly good. This was probably the only thing Camille could do for Grace in front of Page.

As for herself, she had already gotten used to it over the years, so whether she could have Page's motherly love didn't seem important anymore. After all, she had long surpassed the age of needing love. Even if she were to receive it now, she would feel rather awkward, so she believed things were fine as they were.

But Page didn't believe her words. She still thought that Camille must know where Grace was. After her previous arrogant attitude, she had softened a lot. She looked at Camille and said, "Just tell me where she is, okay? You also know that she hasn't left home for too long before. This is the longest she's been away. What if she's in trouble out there?"

Page was anxious, her tone trembling. But Camille repeated her previous statement, "I don't know anything. If I knew where Grace was, why wouldn't I just use that to blackmail you into treating me better?"
