"I don't know for now, the police will notify us when they have a result."
"I know, I'm just too worried. And with your two uncles constantly using this issue to blackmail your father, I'm trying to console you, but I'm worried I can't do it for long!"
Camille just softly hummed in response, as there were no other topics to discuss with her aunt, so the conversation ended there.
Feeling Camille's coldness, her aunt made a casual excuse and left the room.
Camille and Sienna stayed in the backyard, with the cat locked in its cage. Camille walked over to release the cat.
Sienna stood nearby, teasing the cat, her voice soft and gentle, "Is your aunt close to your mother?"
"It's alright, better than other family members. Because whenever something happens, she's the one who comes the most often, so their relationship must be relatively close!" Camille didn't care much, so she didn't pay too much attention, but she was curious as to why Sienna suddenly asked this. "Why do you care about this?"
"Just curious. I don't know if she's genuinely upset or just pretending. In our conversation earlier, it felt like she was probing your feelings. So, I felt her sincerity was lacking," Sienna's observation as an outsider. She couldn't confirm the truth.
If someone else said this, Camille would have brushed it off, but because it was Sienna, she took it to heart.
She casually asked, "Does she also want something from the Armstrong family?"
"Who knows? It's not like she's close to those two uncles, right?" These two uncles lived here with their wives, and two cousins were also present. Initially, they thought the Armstrong's villa was spacious, but now it felt cramped.
Camille paused for a moment, her expression particularly grave, following Sienna's words. Although there were no clear answers or thoughts, she felt uncomfortable thinking about it.
Sensing Camille's seriousness, Sienna added, "I'm just speaking from my perspective, don't feel pressured. Let's focus on resolving your mother's situation first."
"Okay, I understand." Camille nodded.
When they returned to the living room, everyone was already eating.
However, Camille looked around and didn't see her aunt. She casually asked, "Did Aunt leave?"
Her eldest uncle replied, "Her son has a fever."
Her two aunts chimed in, "That aunt of yours, her husband is useless. Whether he's there or not doesn't make a difference. He's completely dependent on her, who doesn't even have a job. Your mother probably subsidizes her a lot. Otherwise, do you think they would have a good relationship? Originally, she was supposed to marry your father, but the Armstrong family saw something in your mother."
Camille was taken aback and fell into deep thought. She knew nothing about this.
No one had ever mentioned it.
Just as Camille was about to ask, her phone rang.
It was Ayan.
Camille looked at Ayan's call and fell into deep thought instantly. She clenched her lips tightly, her brows furrowed.
She gripped her phone, glanced at the others enjoying their meal, and then walked towards the door.
Sienna followed suit.
