My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1288

Chapter 1288: Rebellion

Horace sighed silently, his words filled with concern for Grace. Deep down, he hoped that Grace would become independent, unaffected by anyone's words or actions, and never compelled to do things she disliked due to threats or coercion.

Just like she is now, relaxed and true to herself.

A person can only love others if they love themselves enough.

Otherwise, constantly being asked to do this and that, they would forever remain like a puppet with no life of their own.

If the parents of the Armstrong family grew old and Grace married and had children as they wished, what would happen after they were gone? What would she encounter? Would she have to endure a lifetime of suppressing her true desires?

In truth, Horace never initially thought of being with Grace because he knew very well that they were not on the same path. However, after getting to know her, he discovered that she had a rebellious nature deep within her, but no one was there to encourage her.

Being able to come this far and continuing into the future, he felt fortunate and wanted to cherish it, while also helping Grace become better.

Horace's concerns were not unfounded. After all, Grace belonged to the Armstrong family and had been oppressed by Brody Page for many years, developing certain habits.

Ayan spoke softly, "If you want Grace to live her own way, I have a suggestion."

"What is it?"

"Let her have more conversations with Camille. Through those conversations, she will gradually understand that filial piety towards parents doesn't mean blindly pleasing and obeying them. On the contrary, her actions are not disrespectful towards her parents, as not everyone is infallible, and not everything they do is wise." Ayan looked at Horace and continued, "Although Camille and Grace are not particularly close, Camille has supported and trusted Grace since she was young, pushing her forward. So, Grace has a high level of trust in Camille. If you truly want Grace to become rational and clear-headed after returning home, Camille is her best help."

Horace nodded in agreement, but there was a solemn expression on his face. He took a silent breath and spoke with a subdued voice, "Mr. Simpson knows the Armstrong family quite well. Do you think if I marry Grace, the Armstrong family would propose any conditions? Or would they simply not approve?"

Ayan looked at Horace with surprise in his eyes and asked, "Are you planning to get married?"

"I have that idea, but there are many obstacles ahead. Don't I need to learn from Mr. Simpson?" Horace chuckled lightly.

Ayan said, "I can't share any experience with you on that matter. I'm still trying my best."

The two of them were now in the same boat.

After salvaging the seafood, they returned to the hotel. Each of the luxury private rooms had a dedicated kitchen, and a clean glass allowed them to see how the seafood was processed and served.

Fresh seafood, after the simplest preparation, was indeed incredibly delicious.

For the people present, it was much tastier than Western cuisine.

After lunch, they sat and drank tea for a while. Of course, they had brought their own tea.

After finishing the tea, it was already afternoon.
