Chapter 995: Reduction

Camille's questioning left Page and Brody momentarily speechless.The two exchanged glances, while Mr. Wesley, standing beside them,looked somewhat puzzled and asked, "What does this mean, Mr.Armstrong? Haven't we already agreed on everything? Why is theresomeone else involved? Is your daughter introduced to someoneelse?"

Brody furrowed his brows slightly, his expression clearly showingdispleasure. He never liked it when people questioned his decisions orwent against his wishes. He narrowed his eyes and flashed a cold look,but it was only for a moment before he concealed it. He turned to Mr.Wesley and said with a faint smile, "Of course not. She's just makingexcuses. Both of you can rest assured. I'll make sure my wife educatesher properly. It's getting late today. Both of you should return to thehotel and rest. Tomorrow morning, I'll personally bring her to meet you,and you can all head back to Chesen together.”

Brody naturally had no intention of considering Camille's wishes, nordid he plan to explain anything to her. He was determined to have hisway in this matter.

Camille, however, subconsciously furrowed her brow as she glanced atthe time. It had only been a little over ten minutes since Ayan said hewould wait outside for her. She was beginning to regret not havingasked Ayan to accompany her from the beginning.

She had never expected the Armstrong family to treat her this way, andtheir audacity stunned her.

Camille let out a cold laugh, her voice filled with a chilly edge. Shelooked at Brody and Page, her tone laced with interrogation. "So, havethe two of you arranged my second marriage like this? It seems likeyou've been quite concerned. But since you're so eager, why don't yougo yourself?"

Camille smirked, arching an eyebrow, and directed her words at Page.Her words were abrupt and caught everyone off guard, especially thecontent, which left the four of them momentarily frozen.

Page was the first to react, wearing a look of incredulous shock on herface. Her gaze remained fixed on Camille as she asked, "What are youtalking about? Do you even realize what you're saying?"

Camille chuckled, raising an eyebrow provocatively, and continued,"What about you? Do you know what you're doing? If you want to actcrazy, I won't join you. If you're causing trouble for me under the guiseof doing what's best for me, then please clean up your own mess anddon't involve me and others.”

"We're doing this for your own good. Why can't you see that? Or do youreally believe he will remarry you? Right now, he's only treating youwell because of your looks. Do you think he'll still care about you whenhe has someone new by his side? Will the Wesley family treat you wellonce you give birth to children for them?"

"If the Wesley family is so great, why don't you go yourself? If theWesley family is your choice, why did you specifically choose me? Is itbecause my last name is Armstrong?"

Camille smirked coldly. In truth, she wanted to ask why they hadchosen her instead of Grace. However, Grace was innocent, and shestood by Camille's side. If Camille had voiced such thoughts, it wouldhave been heartless. Therefore, she directed all her questions towardsPage.

Camille's resistance infuriated Page, who pointed at her and shouted inanger, "Why can't you appreciate what's good for you? You're utterlyungrateful, like a wolf in sheep's clothing!"

Camille had lost count of how many times she had heard the term "wolfin sheep's clothing” from Page and Brody. Every time they spoke to her,it seemed as though she owed them something. Camille found itamusing. She remained expressionless and turned to Brody and Page,asking, "Are you really my parents? Why do you always treat me as if Iowe you so much? Is there anything I do that satisfies you? What doyou want from me to be content?"

Camille's questioning left Brody and Page momentarily stunned. Brodyspoke in a composed tone, saying, "Stop replaceing these irrelevantexcuses. If you truly respect us, follow our arrangements and stopmaking us worry. Don't defy us.”

Page quickly chimed in, "Your father is right. If you genuinely careabout us, then listen to our plans.”

After Brody and Page brushed off Camille, they hurriedly assured Mr.Wesley and Mrs. Wesley, "Rest assured, we will educate her properly,and you won't have to worry so much.”

“Then Mr. Armstrong and Mrs. Armstrong, please have a good talk withMiss Armstrong about this. Once she's one of the Wesley family, wehope situations like this won't arise again. Otherwise, ourcooperation..."

"Don't worry; we know what to do," Brody interrupted the unfinishedsentence.

Camille furrowed her brows tightly and blocked Mr. Wesley and Mrs.Wesley, who were preparing to leave. She looked at the two and asked,"What cooperation?"

Mr. Wesley and Mrs. Wesley then exchanged glances with Brody andPage and seemed to be silently asking them how to handle this.

Brody and Page remained silent, their gazes carrying a hint ofcoldness. Brody said to Mr. Wesley, "I'll have someone escort you out.Let's have dinner together tomorrow night.”

Mr. Wesley and Mrs. Wesley prepared to leave again, but before theyreached the entrance, a servant exclaimed, "Mr. Simpson.”

The servant's words were filled with surprise and astonishment. Hergaze turned back towards Brody and Page in the living room uponhearing the name "Mr. Simpson.”

Upon hearing "Mr. Simpson,” Brody and Page instinctively exchangedshocked glances.

Simultaneously, Mr. Wesley and Mrs. Wesley inquired, "Who is this?"Both of them looked at the tall, imposing man standing before them.From every perspective, this man seemed difficult to deal with, exudingan inherent sense of nobility that was impossible to ignore.

Ayan did not respond to their questions. He continued to walk into theroom with measured steps, his brows displaying a cold indifference. Heentered the living room and looked at Brody and Page, who regardedhim with a touch of fear. Ayan's voice carried a faint smile as he said,"What's wrong? Don't you welcome me?"

Ayan's nonchalant inquiry prompted Brody to quickly say, "Of coursenot! We're delighted to see you. Please have a seat. I'll have someonemake tea for you. Let's have a good chat later. I'll see our guests off."After saying this, Brody shot a meaningful glance at Page beforeheading towards Mr. Wesley and Mrs. Wesley. Page instructedsomeone to prepare tea and then wore a smile, saying, "Ayan, we'rethrilled you're here. Why did you suddenly come over?"

"Camille asked me to accompany her. So, what's the matter that you'vebeen discussing for so long?" Ayan's indifferent gaze focused on Page,his eyes filled with unmistakable questioning. Page's face stiffened inresponse.

Upon Ayan's arrival, Camille had remained silent, her face expressingher inner turmoil and displeasure.

Ayan slightly narrowed his eyes and reached out to grasp Camille'swrist, pulling her closer to him. His voice was gentle as he asked,"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

Camille did not respond but merely pursed her lips and raised her gazeslightly towards Ayan.

The unintended intimacy between Camille and Ayan did not escape thenotice of Mr. Wesley and Mrs. Wesley, and the arrival of Ayan hadalready left the Armstrong family in shock. Though he was young, theway the Armstrong family treated him showed that they did not dare tobe casual or disrespectful. So, even though Brody had casuallymentioned Ayan as a relative, the looks from Mr. Wesley and Mrs.Wesley were now subtly scrutinizing Ayan.

They had been about to leave, but the sight of Ayan holding Camille'shand caught their attention, creating a surprising scene.

Mrs. Wesley questioned, "Mr. Armstrong, what is their relationship?Who is this man? Didn't you agree to marry your daughter Camille toour Wesley family? Why is she so intimate with another man now?What does all of this mean?"

Mrs. Wesley's voice was not overly loud, but it was clear enough foreveryone in the room to hear.

Ayan, too, had heard every word clearly. His expression turned cold,and his deep gaze scanned the room. There was a subtle, icy curve onhis lips as he asked in a deliberate tone, "Are you planning to marryCamille into their family?"
