Chapter 1071: Discussion
"Heh!" the old Simpson sneered, his deep voice following, "Since you'renot here to defend Cami, what's your purpose in the Simpson family? Isit just for show, to make us think you're a good mother or to earn ourfavor? We should naturally show you respect s Cami's mother, but youractions make it impossible for us to change our opinion of you,especially concerning Cami. You don't seem concerned about how shefares in the Simpson family because of what you have done. Whatdistinguishes you from those who only seek personal gain?"
The old Simpson rarely spoke such words, and he rarely interfered insomeone else's affairs unless their actions truly bothered him, making ithard for him to swallow. In this case, he had to say a few words.
The old Simpson's words silenced the atmosphere and madeeveryone, except for Page, feel gratified.
Camille felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude in her heart. She wasgenuinely grateful to have encountered the Simpson family.
Despite the cold treatment she received from the Armstrong family andthe absence of the care and love one would expect from normalparents, she didn't feel too much loss because she had found morelove and acceptance in the Simpson family, something no materialpossessions could replace.
Camille considered herself lucky for encountering the Simpsons.Whether or not there were feelings between him and Ayan, theSimpson family had always treated her well.
This kind of kindness was something Camille had never experienced inthe Armstrong family.
What moved Camille even more was that the old Simpson had spokenso many words on her behalf.
She lightly bit her lip, looking at the old Simpson with eyes full ofgratitude and emotion, but the old Simpson hadn't spoken yet.
After this speech, Page naturally felt like she had been slapped acrossthe face, with her cheeks stinging, but this wasn't the end.
The old Simpson's voice rang out again, saying, "Don't think that Camiis isolated and helpless without the Armstrong family's love and care.That's not the case at all. She's neither isolated nor alone. She has achild, a husband, and family members like us. The Armstrong family'sconcern about her relationship with Ayan? For us, the Simpson family,that's irrelevant. Marriage is just a piece of paper. The Simpson familywill provide her with what she needs, regardless of her identity and thetiming. We do it because she's Cami. We don't recognize anyone else."Following the old Simpson's words, Fletcher added, “This is taken forgranted in the Simpson family. Whether it's us or Ayan, we onlyrecognize Cami."
"Yeah, so don't think Cami doesn't have family. We are all her family,and although you may not believe that we truly treat her as family, itdoesn't matter whether you believe it or not. What we say, we can do,and we only need to make Cami feel it, without worrying about peoplewho don't care about her."
Talia followed suit, and walked over to Camille. She extended her handand gently held Camille's hand, speaking in a very gentle voice, "Youmay not care for her or love her, but we, the Simpson family, hope thatyou won't disturb her. If you need money, come to us, the parents,directly, instead of going to our children.”
The old Simpson also showed approval for Talia's words because herwords struck a chord with him.
Since the Simpson family firmly supported Camille, Page couldn'tquestion or accuse Camille. She also couldn't do anything to theSimpsons. In the end, the dinner ended without further incidents.However, it was only Page who left on her own; others continuedeating.
With Page's departure, the atmosphere became harmonious andrelaxed. The old Simpson looked at Camille and said, "In the future, ifyou don't want to contact the Armstrong family, you don't have to. Ididn't want to say much before because you're family, but after all theseincidents, I've realized they don't deserve to be your family. From nowon, the Simpson family is your family, regardless of your relationshipwith Ayan. The Simpson family will always be your home."
The old Simpson's words carried great weight, and though he had saidthis before, hearing it again deeply moved Camille.
Camille bit her lip, and her eyes revealed clear emotions, with tearsglistening in her eyes, but she didn't let them fall because this was amoment of happiness.
Later, Talia and Fletcher also said many heartwarming things toCamille, and she stayed at the Simpson's mansion until around teno'clock.
On the way back, it was getting late, but Camille wasn't sleepy. She satin the backseat with Sienna, who gently patted her hand andwhispered, "Seeing the Simpson family treat you this way, I feelrelieved. Sometimes we lose a lot, but in the future, we'll gain twice oreven a hundred times more. The heavens are fair. When one doorcloses, another one opens for you."
Camille nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, you're right. I feel verylucky with them, and I'm genuinely happy. If I hadn't met them, I mighthave become someone unloved.”
Sienna gently patted her head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Don'tsay you're unloved. Even if the whole world doesn't love you, I loveyou, understand?"
Camille smiled and said, "I understand.”
“Next time, don't say such things. Don't ever think you're unloved. Manypeople love you. Have some confidence in yourself, okay?" Siennaencouraged.
Camille softly pursed her lips and said in a warm and faint voice, "Okay,I understand. Don't worry.”
The journey back to Franklin Bay went smoothly, and Camille andSienna went to their respective mansions.
Tonight, Ayan wasn't home, so the house felt particularly empty.Although the housekeeper lived there, it still seemed quiet, with no oneto talk to.
Camille returned to her room, took a shower, and had just prepared tolie down when Ayan's video call came in.
She held up her phone and saw the man's face on the screen. Herexpression softened as she gazed at him. She asked, "Are you justfinished with your work?"
Ayan replied with an affirmative sound, and a hint of wearinessappeared in his eyes. His voice was a bit hoarse as he said, "I just gotback to the hotel. Have you returned home?"
"Yes, I'm back. I've taken a shower and am about to rest.”
"Did you go to the Simpson's mansion this evening?" he asked softly.Camille instinctively bit her lip and replied in a low voice, "Yes, I wentwith Sienna.”
Seeing that she didn't want to say more, he didn't press further. Hesaid, "You don't have to see her again in the future. Don't feelembarrassed, and don't worry about what others might say or gossipabout, okay?"
Camille immediately understood that he knew everything.
