Chapter 1379 Support
After breakfast, Ayan left the house.
Before leaving, he naturally gave careful instructions and even called Sienna himself to confirm that she would come and accompany Camille, before finally feeling relieved.
However, Ayan also instructed the bodyguards secretly protecting Camille to always stay vigilant and report any incidents immediately.
Camille was unaware of all this, and around nine o'clock in the morning, she drove with Sienna to the Armstrong's villa.
Last night, Page's relatives stayed over, but Brody had not come down since going upstairs. Even dinner and breakfast were brought up by the house servants.
Perhaps he didn't want to see Page's relatives or maybe he was too heartbroken to come down.
When Camille arrived at the Armstrong family, Page's relatives vented all their frustrations on her that had been building up all night. Since Ayan did not accompany her this time, they naturally let out all their displeasure towards Brody on Camille.
They surrounded Camille, one after another asking, "Camille, what exactly is going on? Have you found your mother?"
"Your mother is missing, how can you seem so unfazed? Not only are you not worried, how can you even eat and sleep peacefully? Is this how a daughter should behave?"
"Yes, yes, now that you're here, you can't leave. You must give us an explanation."
Camille looked at these people, her eyes cold and aloof, her voice devoid of warmth: "The person is not lost in my hands, so what explanation do you expect from me? Must I stay here like you to be considered worried? We have already arranged for people to search everywhere, and the rescue team and the police have arrived at the scene. The results will come out sooner or later, not all emotions and reactions need to be displayed to show concern."
Camille's retort made their faces even more somber, but what she said was true, so naturally, none of them could say a word.
Camille looked at them all, then directly went upstairs with Sienna.
Sienna whispered to Camille, "Why do these people live here if they're not going to search? Especially those two men, they seem to just want to profit off this tragedy. It's absurd to demand you take responsibility and give an explanation when the person hasn't been found yet, isn't it?"
Camille didn't defend the so-called uncles because they had indeed done a terrible job. They were not worried about Page; they were aware of the outcome of an accident at such a high cliff. They were simply using Page as an excuse to further their own interests.
Although Camille had no interest in the Armstrong family's affairs since realizing Page's indifference towards her, it didn't mean she would turn a blind eye to others eyeing the Armstrong family's possessions. Camille did not respond to Sienna's words, her disdain for these people deepening.
Camille brought Sienna upstairs to see Brody because the servants said Brody hadn't come down at all.
As soon as they reached the second-floor corridor, they heard Brody's voice coming from the study, sounding very displeased. He said, "What do you mean by this? After such a big incident, you still say such things. Are you trying to harm me?"
Camille and Sienna exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with curiosity.
However, they stopped in their tracks, wanting to hear clearly what was going on.
Sienna leaned close to Camille and whispered, "What's happening? Who is he talking to?"
Camille shook her head slightly, unable to discern the meaning behind Brody's words.
Soon, Brody's voice resounded again.
His tone became even more agitated, "Do you think you can wash your hands clean of this? Let me tell you, this matter is not so simple. You better behave yourself, and stop contacting them in the near future."
After Brody finished speaking, he ended the call.
His face remained impassive, but his emotions seemed to worsen.
Camille and Sienna exchanged a glance before Camille calmly said, "Let's go."
The two of them walked towards Brody's office, and upon arriving at the door, Camille raised her hand to lightly knock. Brody's gaze immediately shifted towards her.
Seeing Camille, Brody's expression remained unwelcoming, his brows furrowed slightly. He asked, "Why are you here? Is Ayan here too?"
Camille didn't answer, simply saying, "I have some questions to ask you."
She glanced at Sienna beside her and said, "Wait for me here."
"Okay, go ahead, I'll take a walk."
Although Sienna had a good relationship with Camille, she had hardly visited the Armstrong family because Brody did not like Camille, and Sienna did not want to cause trouble for her.
Inside the study, Brody's expression turned even darker, his gaze cold and distant. He asked, "What do you want to say?"
Camille sighed heavily, then looked at Brody and asked, "Does my mother's disappearance have anything to do with you?" Brody knew exactly what she meant.
His face instantly turned cold, and he sat up straight. Waiting for Camille, he adopted a questioning tone, "What are you saying? Do you know what you're implying?"
Camille met Brody's eyes and replied, "I know exactly what I mean. That's why I chose to ask you in private. Are you really going to refuse to answer at this point? The search teams are already looking, and the results will come out today. At this point, are you still going to avoid answering?"
Brody's indifference only fueled Camille's emotions, her eyes becoming colder. She continued, "Your relationship with her is beyond repair, and you've been wanting a divorce. However, due to the complications with Armstrong Corp's shares, you've been dragging it out. Are you really willing to give up the woman and child outside just to reconcile with her?"
Brody exploded at this point. Who gave Camille the right to question him? And at this moment, Camille's words were filled with accusations that Brody could not tolerate.
Camille remained composed, her face contorted in distaste. She slammed her hand on his desk, her voice cold and firm, "How dare you!"
Breathing heavily, his eyes red, Brody's displeasure and coldness slowly surfaced.
He said, "Camille, this is a matter for the elders. Who gave you the right to meddle? It is not your place to speak now. You think having Ayan by your side gives you the power to challenge me? You are part of the Armstrong family, and I have the right to educate you."
Camille showed no fear, her eyes as cold as ice, gazing at Brody. She did not stop, but continued, "Your reaction shows I hit a nerve, doesn't it? You haven't given up on the woman and child outside, have you?"
