My Ex-husband Begs Me Back (Ayan and Camille) novel Chapter 833

Chapter 833: Retention

Camille shook her head. "It's about Grace."

Since Horace mentioned that it wouldn't be convenient to discuss without Grace's permission, Camille didn't dwell on it too much. After all, it was Grace's business. So, she didn't directly bring up her suspicions to Ayan.

Ayan didn't ask further after hearing Camille's words. He simply held her hand and entered the elevator, going upstairs together.

Noticing Camille's troubled expression, Ayan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Camille said, "Horace told me that we can't reach Grace. I need to find a way to contact her. So, I'm going out for a while. Can you pack our luggage at home? Is that okay?"

"Sure, should I accompany you?"

"No need, I should be back soon. What time is our flight?"

"Around seven, we have enough time."

Camille nodded. There were still several hours until seven o'clock, so they could meet directly at the airport.

Back at Maple Leaves Mansion, Camille changed her clothes and immediately left to find Grace.

She tried calling Grace, but her phone was switched off.

Driving aimlessly, Camille had no idea where to go. After careful consideration, she finally decided to go to the Armstrong family.

She arrived at the Armstrong family, her first visit since their last unpleasant encounter. Camille parked the car and sat inside for several minutes before getting out.

She pressed the doorbell, and the familiar servant opened the door, hurriedly inviting her in.

Brody was not there, only Page was present.

Seeing Camille, Page's expression showed a slight surprise and stiffness. She asked in a casual tone, "Why are you here?"

Camille didn't pay any attention to Page's distance and coldness. She just answered in a low voice, "Is Grace at home?"

Page hesitated for a moment, then looked at Camille and asked, "Are you looking for Grace?"

"Yes, I need to talk to her about something on our project."

Camille made up an excuse, which seemed more reasonable and didn't require her to explain too much to Page.

Page didn't continue to inquire and simply said, "Grace went to Flento City."

"When did she leave? When will she be back?"

Camille's tone sounded slightly anxious, catching Page's attention.

"Because of some urgent matters and I can't reach her, I came here."

Page then recited a series of numbers to Camille. "She was arranged to meet a potential marriage partner from Flento City. Your father accompanied her to meet him. If everything goes well, they might finalize the marriage this year. You and Ayan should do your best to give her a strong backing, or she'll be looked down upon. After all, we are a family, and Grace has always been good to you. You can't just let her be disrespected by her in-laws, right?"

Page went off on a tangent, but Camille didn't mind. She didn't even pay attention to those words. Her focus was solely on the mention of Grace.

So, Grace disappeared and turned off her phone because she went to meet the potential marriage partner?

Camille cautiously asked, "Is the man from Flento City? Which family in Flento City?"

Page looked at Camille, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes, and then said calmly, "Nothing has been confirmed yet between them."

It meant that she didn't need to know. Camille only needed to wait for notification and be ready to help when needed, along with Ayan.

Camille simply pursed her lips and replied indifferently, "Then I'll call her. You can go about your business. I'll take my leave."

After speaking, Camille turned and left, and Page naturally didn't try to stop her.

After leaving the Armstrong's house, Camille got in the car and immediately called Grace.

Since it was Brody's phone, Camille made it clear that she was looking for Grace when he answered. Brody hesitated and said reluctantly, "If it's something important, just say it. She's not available right now."
