Just a few words, simple and concise, yet containing so many emotions.
Camille's eyes immediately welled up with tears, but she maintained her composure and softly said, "I accept your apology."
Vere also followed suit, "So when do you plan for me to leave?"
Grace replied, "In the next couple of days, okay?"
"The sooner, the better. See if there are any earliest flights available, anywhere will do, I'm not picky." As long as he could leave, his departure would probably bring great relief and healing to those around him.
So he was willing to leave, willing to go immediately.
Vere's reaction and current situation made Grace feel uneasy as well. However, since he had accepted it, Grace didn't want to say anything comforting anymore. After all, her goal was for Vere to leave, and there was no need for further words.
Grace just gave Vere a faint look, the sadness and reluctance in her eyes for Vere evident, but ultimately, she said nothing more.
It was getting late, so after leaving Vere's room, Grace went downstairs to find Camille.
The two sat in the car, and Grace, her voice somewhat muffled, said to Camille, "I've said everything I needed to say. He's accepted it. Let's arrange the earliest flight for him to leave."
Camille glanced at Grace, knowing that she had feelings for Vere. After all, she had spent more time with Vere since they were little, than her own sister. However, due to Regina's presence, her feelings were naturally conflicted. After all, no one could accept a child of someone who had harmed or even killed their own mother.
Camille said calmly, "I'll have Ayan arrange it, but I need to tell you in advance, Ayan will have someone watch over him constantly, until he grows up, gets married, and has children, and there will be no other intentions."
If any other intentions arise, they will plan accordingly early. After all, a child's future is unpredictable and full of possibilities.
Upon hearing this, Grace instinctively asked, "Doesn't that mean he won't have any freedom?"
"If you've lived abroad without Horace, you would have also chosen to stay with another family, because life abroad is not as simple and easy as you imagine. In a city where you know no one, everything is unfamiliar. If someone reaches out to help you at that time, how would you react?"
A child like Vere, even if his mind is meticulous, is still a child after all. So he wouldn't refuse such help; he would be grateful for it, because in a foreign land, this kind of help is like a lifesaver.
Perhaps it's unfair to Vere, but it's necessary. Only by doing this can they cut off Vere's contact with that man and keep a close eye on him to prevent any other intentions.
Camille knew that Grace might resist this, but when things had reached this point, she had no choice.
The two talked for a long time before Grace's return to the Armstrong's villa, and Camille went back to Franklin Bay.
Before going to bed that night, Camille also discussed this matter with Ayan. She asked, "Is it too much to do this to a child?"
