My Ex-husband Begs Me Back
Chapter 1074: Rupture

Chapter 1074: Rupture

One by one, everyone started to console Page, and they didn't forget tocriticize Camille. But Page's intentions went beyond seeking comfort.She enjoyed everyone's sympathy while also accusing Camille.

“I have two daughters. My elder daughter was deceived and takenaway by my younger daughter, and I don't know where she's hiddenbecause my younger daughter's ex-husband is a very capable person. Isuspect my younger daughter instigated her ex-husband to imprisonmy elder daughter. Now, I can't even see my elder daughter withoutconsidering my younger daughter's mood."

“I don't even know what I did wrong. Why is my daughter treating methis way? Even if I did something wrong, she could have just talked tome directly. Why does she treat me like this? Am I less than a strangerin her eyes?"

The more Page spoke, the more agitated she became. Herexaggerations knew no bounds, and she didn't care if she wasexposed. All she could think about was having everyone speak up forher, help her condemn Camille. Only when Camille faced questions andcriticism, she would benefit in some way.

Once this idea took root in her mind, she became even moredetermined to achieve it.

The video was only a little over three minutes long, but in that shorttime, she had already said so many negative things about Camille.What can one imagine she might have said in Camille's absence?

The doctor said to Camille, "Mrs. Simpson, would you like to come herepersonally to deal with this, or should I send your people to stop her?Although we are in the hospital, some patients can be quite stubborn,and we don't have the authority to do much, or we might even getreported by the patient.”

"l understand what you're saying. Thank you for letting me know. I'llfigure it out on my end. You don't need to worry about her. No matterwhat she says or does, just follow your hospital's rules."

Camille responded briefly, then hung up the phone.

She rubbed her head vigorously, as all the back-and-forth with Pagehad given her a headache.

Camille let out a silent sigh. She felt quite helpless and powerless. Shewasn't sure what she could do to satisfy Page.

With all this turmoil, was she really not worried about erasing the lasttrace of their mother-daughter relationship?

Camille felt truly helpless. She squinted her eyes in thought and thenwent to replace Sienna.

Sienna was in the next office, having just finished her work. There wasno one else in the office except the two of them.

Seeing Camille's troubled expression, Sienna asked, "Why didn't youwait for me to come to work this morning? Did you go somewherealone to eat something delicious?"

Camille sighed, "I wish it were that simple."

Camille walked over to a nearby chair and sat down.

Sienna asked, "What's going on? Did something happen, or are youworried about last night's incident?"

Camille shook her head without speaking, her lips pressed together.She raised her gaze to meet Sienna’s eyes and asked in a gentle tone,"If someone keeps challenging your boundaries repeatedly, how do youmake them stop from offending you?"

“Then you have to hit her where it hurts. She needs to feel pain or athreat for her to realize how serious you are.”

"But I never wanted her to think I'm formidable. I just hope she doesn'tdisturb me. We're living our lives without interference, just like before. Ifthere's something significant, I'll do my best to help. But apart from that,we don't need any contact. Isn't that good enough?"

Why would they have to squeeze out her last bit of usefulness like this?Is that what they want?

Sienna naturally understood whom Camille was referring to. HearingCamille's words, she knew something had happened.

She asked, "What happened exactly?"

Camille showed the video to Sienna, who remained silent throughout.After watching it, Sienna slammed the phone down on the desk, visiblyangry. She said, "What is she doing? Why is she once again blamingGrace's situation on you? To be honest, I'm starting to think we shouldjust bring Grace back so you don't have to suffer.”

Sienna cared about Camille, and as for Grace, the Armstrong familyhad been pushing all matters concerning her onto Camille. As Camille'sfriend, she found it unfair.

Camille looked helpless and said, "Actually, having Grace come backwon't solve the issue. It will only drag her into the mess. The Armstrongfamily is like this now because they've put their interests ahead ofanyone's feelings."

Sienna was also distressed and looked at Camille. She asked, "So,what should we do? We can't keep watching her do this, can we?"Camille sighed and smiled wryly. She said, "No, we can't. If we do, Imight really reach my limit." Her eyes were filled with helplessness asshe gazed at Sienna. She spoke slowly, one word at a time, "Youmentioned that making her feel threatened is the way for her tounderstand my feelings, right?"

Sienna nodded in agreement.

Camille said, "Then I'll pay a visit to the Armstrong's villa."

“You're going to see Master Armstrong?" Sienna referred to Brody asMaster Armstrong because she didn't want to call him uncle. She wasaware of Brody's mistreatment of Camille, and recently, he hadarranged for Camille to be taken back to the Wesley family. She heldsome resentment towards him.

Camille nodded, saying, "If what she said is true, then they are onopposite sides, and I don't want to be involved any longer. The onlyway is to let them handle it themselves."

Even though they were parents, she had no other options. She couldn'tkeep accommodating, doing everything as per Page's requests. Shecouldn't do that, and she shouldn't.

Sienna agreed and immediately said, “Let's go now. I'll go with you.”Camille looked at Sienna, nodding gently. The two of them set offtogether.

Naturally, Brody was at the Armstrong's villa because he had plenty todeal with recently. The issues with the Wesley family were far fromresolved, and they kept demanding repayment. However, Brody hadalready pocketed the money and was unwilling to part with it. So, thesedays, he was entangled in disputes with the Wesley family. Theypractically showed up at his doorstep every day, and Brody had gonefrom pretending to deal with them to outright ignoring them.

When Camille and Sienna arrived at the Armstrong family estate, thestaff informed them that the Wesley family had just left after having aheated argument with Brody.

As Camille and Sienna entered the villa, they found Brody in the livingroom, on the phone, complaining about the Wesley family. It wasn'tclear who he was talking to, but his tone was exceptionally gentle, agentleness that Camille rarely witnessed.

Upon seeing Camille and Sienna, Brody tensed up immediately. He toldthe person on the other end of the line, "We'll talk later. I havesomething to attend to now," and promptly hung up. He gazed atCamille indifferently and asked, "Why are you here?"

Brody's attitude was chilly, and Camille didn't expect warmth ortenderness from him either. She didn't even sit down before she wentstraight to the point, asking, "Do you know that she's in the hospital?"Brody remained silent but gave Camille a dispassionate glance,confirming that he knew.

Camille continued, "You don't have to answer that question, as it's notthe main reason I came here today.” She looked at Brody with a hint ofsuggestion in her voice and said, "Your marital relationship has longbeen shattered, hasn't it?"
