Camille, however, would not be quick to judge the current relationship status between them based solely on their expressions. After all, expressions and facial expressions are what others want her to see, and even sincerity can be acted out. This is why she wouldn't easily believe it.
Camille and Grace got out of the car, with their two bodyguards opening the door, and then followed behind Camille and the rest of the family into the house.
The Armstrong family's living room is not very large. Although it is a villa, the space is limited, and with the current number of people, the living room appears relatively small.
Everyone took their seats, while the two bodyguards stood on the left and right, which made the uncle somewhat unhappy.
The uncle spoke up, "Camille, what do you mean by this? Why should we discuss family matters with outsiders present?"
The younger uncle did not speak up, but had a serious expression on his face.
The two aunts were unusually quiet and didn't make a sound. As for the two cousins, they might as well have the words "playboy" written on their faces. From the moment they entered until now, they were glued to their phones, occasionally flashing smiles. Based on Camille's understanding of them, it was nothing more than chatting and flirting with some internet celebrities.
So how could such people manage a company well?
Camille suppressed her displeasure, but did not directly reveal it. She simply looked at the people in front of her calmly and responded, "Uncle, please don't misunderstand. Having them here is to ensure everyone's safety and to prevent any accidents. They won't speak out of turn. You don't need to worry, uncle."
Camille still addressed them as "uncle" with no trace of her inner dissatisfaction evident.
After hearing this, the uncle didn't say much, but his expression still didn't look pleasant.
The younger uncle next to him snorted lightly and said indifferently, "Let's get down to business."
Only then did the uncle speak slowly, "Camille, I have discussed with your younger uncle. The eldest cousin is the eldest son and heir of our family, and by being adopted by your mother, he will also become a son of the Armstrong family. This will bring peace to your mother's spirit in heaven."
Camille looked at the people, her gaze scanning their faces.
It seemed they had reached an agreement.
After the uncle finished speaking, the younger uncle and the aunts remained silent, but their expressions did not look good.
Very reluctantly.
Camille narrowed her eyes. Her ultimate goal was not to resolve the matter calmly like this, but she wouldn't say anything for now. There was a hint of a smile in her eyes as she said, "Is everything agreed upon? Since it's all settled, let's formalize the agreement and have a press conference. It will benefit everyone. Is that alright?"
Camille's speed caught the uncle off guard, as she had not mentioned their interests throughout the process, just the adoption.
The uncle did not respond with a yes or no, but asked, "Camille, I have a question."
