My Ex-husband Begs Me Back
Chapter 204: Unreasonable

“Well, it has been following us since we went out from the company. Ichanged a route intentionally. I'll speed up probably. You need to buckleup.”

Camille reached out and pulled out her seat belt to fasten it. “Don’tworry. It's OK if you couldn't get rid of it.” She whispered.

"OK. I get it.”

Kian glanced at Camille to make sure that she was ready and thenstepped on the gas pedal to speed up.

Camille didn’t have much resistance to this. She looked back at the carbehind them, noticing that it is following them exactly just as Kian said,as it is also speeding up while Kian is accelerating.

Where was such a coincidence under the sun?

Camille narrowed her eyes slightly. There were some inexplicableemotions at the bottom of her heart, which made her a littleuncomfortable.

Kian turned three corners and finally managed to shake off the carbehind them.

After the speed of the car stabilized, Camille asked, “Mr. Reid, didanyone follow you when you came to my office?”

“Probably not. I'll notice it if there is. But it is not ruled out that theydidn't follow me very closely.”

“If that car didn’t follow you just now, it must be for me.”

Camille squinted, with a cold look in her eyes.

She didn’t continue her analysis, staying silent, with an indescribablefeeling occurring in her heart.

So many things have been happening recently that Camille's anxietyslowly grew deeper and deeper.

When the car stopped in front of Armstrong Corp, she didn't get off.She thought for a long time in silence and asked Kian, “Mr. Reid, whodo you think is following us?”

“Mrs. Simpson, I don’t know for the time being. I have to report it to Mr.Simpson and ask him to look into it.”

“Well, that's alright. By the way, I heard from Ayan that there is still nonews about the former baby-sitter. Who is responsible for it? Whyhasn't anything come of it for so long?”

Kian panicked for a second and his eyes which are looking at Camilledodged subconsciously.

Camille noticed the change in his facial expression and asked, “What'swrong?”

“Nope.” Kian lowered his eyes and did not dare to look Camille's eyesdirectly. He responded lightly, “Mrs. Simpson, this matter is a little tricky.Itis a little difficult to investigate. Mr. Simpson handed it over to me tocheck the other day, but there have been many things lately. I had todelay it for the time being.”

“Alright. If there is any progress, please let me know.”

Camille didn’t think much about it, but Kian’s expression and reactionmade her confused.

She didn’t have time to dwell on it, though, because Grace was alsohere.

They approached Armstrong Corp. Grace asked her softly, “Why didyou come here suddenly? Is there anything wrong?”

“Where is Elijah?”

“I've got Elijah working with those two you borrowed.”

Camille didn't say anything as they took the elevator to Brody's office.As soon as they got out of the elevator, they heard Elijah’s dissatisfiedvoice, “You'd better make it clear that you are here just to help. I'm stillin charge of this company. What you are saying has nothing to do withwhat Armstrong Corp needs.”

Camile looked at Grace faintly. Her eyes narrowed slightly with a bit ofcoldness.

When they reached the office door, Kian raised his hand and knockedon the door. “Excuse me. Mr. Armstrong is hospitalized, asking the twolegal heirs of Armstrong family to have a look.”

Elijah looked over immediately and said, “Grace, you came.”

He skipped over Camille. She was not favored in Armstrong family, sohe didn't take Camille seriously at all.

Grace called out politely, “Elijah, I come over with Camille.”

Elijah then glanced at Camille who is Ayan'’s wife. Due to that, hedoesn't want to offend her or be too friendly. He kept calm and asked,“Why are you here at this time?"

“Elijah, you've been working for Armstrong family for many years,right?”

Camille looked at him indifferently and didn’t call him Elijah as Gracedid.

Elijah’s face stiffened slightly and he was a little concerned, “Your fatherand I have been partners for many years. You don't live in theArmstrong family so maybe you don’t know. Grace knows very well therelationship between Armstrong family and me”

“Elijah, I just asked how long you've worked for Armstrong Corp. I don'tcare If you have a good relationship with Armstrong family or myfather.”

Camille's coldness made Elijah unhappy instantly. Grace reached outand tugged at her clothes subconsciously, indicating that she couldn'ttalk with him like that. But a look from Camille made her stop andfreeze.

Camille simply said, “Elijah, you've been working for Armstrong Corpfor many years. Is this the first ime you encountered an accident likethis due to layoffs?”

"Of course.”

“Since it is the first time, we have to take some special measures.”Camille walked to the couch and sat down. She looked at Mario'ssecretary and asked, “Do you have the files on the two employees whojumped?”

“I have them ready for you, Miss. Camille.”

Camile took the files and glanced at them. Then she looked at Elijah.“Their contracts with Armstrong Corp were due to expire this month. Ifwe let them leave at this time, they can still get a compensation.Therefore, it maybe a little too deliberate for them who jumped off thebuilding to make trouble at this time.”

“Miss. Camille, you have never worked at Armstrong Corp before, soyou don't understand the model of Armstrong Corp certainly. I think it isunderstandable that the two employees chose such a way to stay inArmstrong Corp in that they don’t want to lose their jobs. Of course, toppriority should be given to our company’s interests.”

Elijah looked unhappy, with his eyes showing he was discontent toCamille.

Camille laughed, “Your words make me wonder if you are on the side ofArmstrong Corp or the two vexatious employees?”

“I'm on the side of Armstrong Corp certainly.”

“I even assumed that those guys who jumped off the building were withyou.”

Camille looked at Elijah straight in the eyes as she spoke.

Elijah frowned and said unhappily, “What do you mean? Grace, do youlisten to your sister? I've really put a lot of sweats if not efforts ineverything I do. Your father never said anything like that. How could ajunior...?"

“Elijah, calm down. Camille was just too worried about the company.”Grace felt a bit awkward. She looked at Camille and said, “Camille,stop talking. Elijah..."

“Elijah, please go the hospital and talk with those two jumpers. If theyare willing to settle privately, I can offer them a new job and pay them acompensation. If not, we will go through the legal procedures.Considering that they are well and their employment are about toexpire, I think that the law would give me a fair result.”

“Did you arrange for me to do these things in what capacity?”

Elijah looked at Camille with an unwilling face.

Camille didn’t get angry. Instead, she smiled. “Though I didn’t grow upin Armstrong family, my surname is Jane and I am also the legal heir ofArmstrong Corp. What's wrong with my arrangements for you? If youdon’t want to do, I can replace someone else. After all, secretaries can bechanged.”

“You...” Elijah was furious at Camille's words. He shouted, “Let me seeyour dad. Only he is qualified to talk with me like that.”

“In that case, please stop what you are doing for a period of time. Youmust have been tired of following my father for so many years. It's timefor you to take a break. How do you think, Elijah?”
