My Ex-husband Begs Me Back
Chapter 779 Command

Camille shook her head. "No, I'm fine. Maybe just a little tired." Shelooked at Grace and asked, "Is there something going on?"

“I don't know," Grace replied. "I've asked several times but they won'tsay anything. They probably want to wait for you to arrive.”

Grace led Camille into the room where Brody and Page were sitting inthe living room watching TV. When they saw Camille enter, they turnedoff the television.

They exchanged glances before Brody said to Grace, "Go upstairs.”"Why?" Grace frowned. "Is there something I can't hear?"

"Go upstairs," Brody repeated with a commanding tone.

Grace didn't look happy about it but Page quickly got up and pulled hertowards the stairs.

Then Brody turned to Camille and said coldly, as if she was a stranger:"Have a seat."

Camille sometimes didn't understand why they invited her over if theydidn't like her.

She silently laughed inside while maintaining an amiable expression onher face as she walked over to sit on the sofa where Ayan had satearlier this day.

"What's going on? Why did you ask me here?" she asked Brody andPage calmly.

Brody asked, "What is your relationship with Ayan now? Aren't youdivorced?"

"Yes we are divorced,” Camille replied simply.

"If that's so, then why are you still close?" he asked harshly.

"What do you mean? Do you think that since we're divorced we shouldkeep our distance or never speak again?" She raised an eyebrow inconfusion before continuing: "Why does it matter?"

Brody's expression changed instantly: "What do you mean by that? Areyou saying I shouldn't be concerned about your personal life?"

"Why would I say that?" Camille responded calmly yet coolly withoutshowing any concern for his attitude towards her whatsoever.

Page couldn't help but chime in too: "Camille, if there's no intention ofyou to get back together with Ayan, then please don't createunnecessary drama which could affect the Armstrong Family.”"Unnecessary drama?" Camile lifted up gaze meeting Page's eyesdirectly.” You invited me here today just so that my private life could bescrutinized? If so then I think it's unnecessary because both Ayan andmyself are single now. An unmarried man meets sn unmarried woman -what's unclear about this situation?"

Camile found their behavior amusing because clearly neither one caredhow she was doing yet insisted upon meddling in matters concerningher marriage.

Camille had always been disappointed by the Armstrong family, andthis disappointment accumulated over time until it left her completelyheartbroken.

Her relationship with Brody and Page was not deep, and the distanceand indifference she had felt from them since she was a kid meant thatshe never placed all of her hopes on her parents from the beginning.So when she thought about it carefully, she realized that she wasn'tactually very sad or upset; rather, she just didn't understand why Brodyand Page acted the way they did.

Camille's response was devoid of warmth or emotion. This made Brodyand Page unable to accept her attitude towards them, because theysaw it as rude and disrespectful - especially since they were still herparents. How could she act this way?

Brody snorted coldly before slamming his hand down on the coffeetable with a low growl in his voice. "What do you mean? What are youtrying to say? Do you think you're so great now that you can fly awayalone? Let me tell you something, Camille: even if you become a bigname, you're still part of the Armstrongs - which means you have listento me when you are still a member of us."

Camille was used to Brody's emotional outbursts by now, so there wasno reaction from her end.

She sat there calmly with no emotions showing in her eyes while Brodyfelt like he had punched a soft cotton ball. The powerlessness he feltmade him even more flared up.

However, instead of venting his frustrations further, he simply looked atCamille with cold eyes before ordering: "What's going on between Ayanlately? Are you guys living together? What has he been up to thesedays?"

"We're not living together, so I don't know what exactly you mean by“what has he been up to?" replied Camille coolly.

"Well then, replace out! I want to know who Ayan is talking too lately andwhat exactly is he investigating right now! You have two days tops forreplaceing out everything about him! And remember this: even thoughthere may be a chance for reconciliation between you in the future, butright now the Armstrong Family is where your loyalty should lie! Ifanything happens within The Armstrong Family then running awaywon't help!"

Brody's every word was filled with threats and warnings. Camille's eyesgrew cold, her expression indifferent as water. She didn't respond toBrody's words, only gave him a brief glance that was just asintimidating as Ayan's. It made them feel a little timid.

Page immediately spoke up, "What kind of look is that? You can't evendo what we ask you to do now?"

Camille replied calmly, "If Ayan doesn't want anyone else to know abouthis affairs, what can I replace out? Do I have to monitor him 24 hours of 7days?"

Brody snorted coldly, "You've been with him for so long and you stillcan't handle this? You must give me a result on this matter. I want toknow what Ayan wants."

“If you want to know what he wants,” Camille said coolly, “then youshould tell me what you're worried about.”

Naturally Brody wouldn't say anything. He just told Camille not tomeddle in things she shouldn't and focus on hat he asked her to do -replaceing out who Ayan is in contact with and why he's doing what hedoes.

Camille couldn't quite make sense of it all but she didn't bother askingfor more details either. If she wanted answers, she knew where to go -straight back to Ayan.

After Brody finished speaking, he didn't keep Camille around anylonger than necessary before saying flatly: "Alright then, you mayleave.”

The tone sounded like one used by someone dismissing an employeewho had just reported their work progress; there was no hint ofaffection whatsoever, which made Camille unable help but replace it funny.She smiled wryly at Brody and Page before saying: "If there's anythingelse in the future, please let Grace pass the message onto me sinceneither of us really wants any contact with each other."

Before they could react or question her further she had already gottenup from her seat and left without looking back.

There were questions from behind but naturally she wasn't going stopor explain herself because everything that came out of her mouth wastrue — if they didn't want contact with her then why come looking for herwhen something happened?

It all seemed ridiculous in Camille's eyes.

As soon as she left the villa, she got into her car parked outside anddrove off immediately.

Soon enough Grace called but Camilla ignored it; instead sending amessage back: “I'm fine."

She wasn't interested in talking much nor did she wish bring uptonight's events again; As for tasks assigned by Brody or Page, well,those were never going happen anyway.

She had only been in the Armstrong family for half an hour, and now itwas still early as she drove slowly back to Maple Leaves Mansion.

Her mood had hit rock bottom within a day, so when she arrived atMaple Leaves Mansion, she didn't immediately get out of the car.Instead, she sat inside and adjusted her emotions.

Looking outside the window, Camille couldn't help but wonder: "Don'tknow if Ayan has come back by now?"

He had received her message earlier today telling him that she wasgoing to visit the Armstrong family, but he hadn't replied yet.

Austin's words in the afternoon made her feel indescribablyuncomfortable.

Camille pursed her lips and stared blankly out of the window until shecompletely calmed down before finally pushing open the car door andgetting out.

It had been almost forty minutes.

She walked into the building and took an elevator upstairs.

As soon as Camille stepped off from elevator exit, a tall figure blockedher way. She exclaimed in surprise before looking up at him with reliefupon seeing who it was.

She asked softly: “Why are you here?"

Ayan didn't answer; he just looked down at her with his eyes fixed onhers before asking quietly: "Why did it take you so long to come up?"
