"How do you think she will decide?"
"I don't know." She shook her head, feeling quite conflicted inside.
No matter what decision she makes, this matter is tormenting for Grace.
Camille spoke softly, "For Grace, they are all her closest people. No matter the outcome, she will be the one who suffers the most. But for me, our time together has always been limited since I can remember, so my feelings towards them are also weak. So even though I want to play the role of a grieving daughter, I can't."
Camille's tone was somber, reflecting her true thoughts and feelings.
She didn't want to keep it all inside, she wanted to say it out loud, to hear a different perspective from Ayan.
She leaned her head against him, asking, "Ayan, do you think I am cold-hearted?"
"This isn't about you being cold-hearted, this is about their attitude towards you from the beginning until now. So it's not about you being cold-hearted, it's the parents who should love their children first. We are parents too, if we treat Timmy like a stranger, only approaching him when needed, do you think he will be warm or cold towards us?"
"Definitely cold."
"Isn't that the answer? If he is cold towards us, then it's normal for you to be reserved. Even though there is a parental bond, if you haven't received any care, then you naturally can't be overly warm. But this doesn't mean you should completely cut off ties with them, you haven't completely ignored them, have you?"
Every word of Ayan's pierced Camille's heart, understanding her thoughts and knowing what she wanted to hear.
This doesn't mean that Camille needs someone to deepen her thoughts and decisions, it's just that the environment and interactions over time have made it impossible for her to act like nothing has happened, let alone see this matter in a normal daughter-parent relationship.
Even though Page is no longer here, she can't portray the emotions others see like acting.
Camille just took a deep breath and remained silent, arriving at their destination in this way.
It was very late, and with the rainy weather, the temperature had dropped, making the air quite chilly at this hour.
But Kian had arranged for someone to wait here in advance, also providing a room specifically for their use.
Everyone arrived one after another, naturally going into the rooms.
The two uncles only realized at this point that something had really happened to Page. If everything before was just an act, all to make Camille and Grace realize their urgency, there was still a glimmer of hope in their hearts, hoping to find Page and speak kind words to her in front of her.
But now that Page is gone, their hearts are truly filled with worry.
The eldest uncle paced restlessly, asking, "Where is she? Where's my sister?"
"How could this happen?" The eldest uncle muttered to himself, then walked up to the police officer and said, "Officer, please help us. My sister was perfectly fine, how could she disappear while traveling? Why did this happen?"
The eldest uncle started, and the younger uncle was no exception.
