My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 1400

Chapter 1400 Danger

"Now, it seems like saying so much is of no use, Mom is already gone, will never come back, I don't even know how to face Dad now. Especially now, the police are still investigating whether Mom's accident is related to Dad."

Grace, of course, wouldn't respond directly to Regina's question, but instead kept digging, continuing to follow her own pace and strategy with Regina.

She used a gradual approach to disrupt Regina's words, make Regina more and more flustered, and then she would reveal her true colors.

Sure enough, when Regina heard the words related to Brody, her face froze for a moment, but it didn't last long. After all, she didn't want Grace to suspect anything. She stared blankly at Grace, softly asking, "Grace, what are you suspecting? Although your parents' relationship is a bit rocky, as I mentioned earlier, they did argue often when you were not at home. But your dad wouldn't do something dangerous to your mom. You can still trust in that because they've been married for many years. If he had such thoughts, wouldn't they have shown up long ago?"

Regina still stared at Grace with a probing look, as if waiting to see if Grace would pick up any hints from her words.

But Grace remained silent and unresponsive, with almost no expression on her face. This made it hard for Regina to read her. Regina asked softly, "Grace, what are you thinking? Did you hear me? I didn't mean anything by it, just don't want you to make the wrong choice, and don't want there to be any distance between you and your father. At this point, your only family is your father."

"Aunt, are you saying that although my parents' relationship is strained, Dad wouldn't do anything dangerous to Mom?"

"Yes, think about it. They've been together for so many years, there must still be some feelings between them, even if it's just simple family affection. So how could he harm your mom?"

"Yes, you're right. I just have a question."

"What question?"

"Aunt, shouldn't Mom have told you many times that her relationship with Dad is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface? Dad is not as good to her as he seems, right? Since Mom has such a good relationship with you, she must have told you, right?"

Grace looked at Regina with wide eyes, not accusing, just asking innocently. It was as if she was saying, 'My parents fought, you must have heard about it, right?'

Regina was completely taken aback. Her eyes blinked rapidly, and there were complex emotions flashing in them. She couldn't meet Grace's gaze directly and became more nervously tense.

She kept exploring Grace's every move and word, but Grace kept staring at her, making Regina slightly incoherent.

Grace pretended not to see Regina's reaction, just asking calmly, "Aunt, even though you're looking out for me by saying this, wanting to keep me from having a strained relationship with my father, shouldn't we let the police investigate this matter? There should be results by tomorrow morning, as the forensic team works quickly."

Regina nodded, her face looking unpleasant. She furrowed her brow and asked, "So what do you think? Do you suspect your father?"
