Chapter 1383 Wooden
Chapter 1383 Wooden
Page was biased to the core towards her, never considering her even for a moment, even when she had requests, they were allin an authoritative tone.
Not just towards her, but towards Timmy as well, never genuinely looking at Timmy, not even pretending to.
While others had a distant kinship, Page did not, because she did not like her, so she would not like her child either.So, Camille felt she should hate her.
But to hate someone requires great tolerance, constantly keeping that person in mind.
It requires a large capacity.
Sienna gently held Camille's hand and said in a soothing voice, "Why hate her? Hating someone is exhausting, just let thingsflow naturally. Hatred and non-hatred will come with time, don't deliberately make any decisions, let everything follow your heart."
Camille leaned over, and rested her head on Sienna's shoulder.
Sienna continued, "The events have occurred, you shouldn't blame or feel guilty, it wasn't you who caused all this, don't feel thatbecause you didn't treat her well, didn't actively change or maintain the relationship, that led to her leaving, you won't have thatchance again.”
“All of this wasn't what you wanted it to become, you've tried to change this relationship multiple times, but she is unappreciative.They chose to push you away, not you wanting to leave."
Sienna was genuinely worried that Camille would feel that with Page gone, there would be no chance to mend their mother-daughter relationship in the future.
But Camille had been the one trying to mend it from the start, just like a child seeking affection from a parent, but Pagerepeatedly pushed her away, showed indifference, and at the first sign of negativity or criticism, she distanced herself to avoidany contamination or involvement.
How can a mother like that deserve her daughter's continuous efforts to please her?
Sienna spoke comforting words to Camille, she was Camille's friend, she had witnessed how Camille interacted with theArmstrong family all along, her heart ached for Camille. As for the Armstrong family, Camille had done more than enough, no onehad any right to say a word against her.
The two of them stayed in the car for a long time, with Sienna keeping Camille company most of the afternoon.At one o'clock in the afternoon, Ayan returned from Simpson Group.Camille was sitting in her room lost in thought, and as soon as Ayan opened the door, he saw her.
Camille still felt a bit unsettled inside, her feelings for him were always there, strong and unwavering. Even if they nevercommunicated again, he would be enough for her.
Ayan walked over to her, gently embracing her, and Camille naturally knew it was him, so she nestled into his arms.She didn't cry, she just felt weak all over.After a brief silence, Camille finally spoke, "How's everything being handled?"
Ayan replied, "The body has been handed over to the funeral parlor, but we have to wait for Grace to come back before makingany decisions. Since it involved a death, the authorities will naturally investigate. They've already visited the Armstrong family inthe afternoon, as for what was discussed, it's still unclear. Later, I'll have Kian go ask Logan."
Camille simply nodded in response.
In the evening, the two of them had dinner at home, taking a short rest in the afternoons. Since Grace would be back later todeal with Page's affairs, they would likely have to stay up late, maybe even the whole night.
During the meal, Camille remained silent, and Ayan kept a close eye on her every move. Seeing her only eating without pickingup any vegetables, he asked gently, "Why so quiet?"
Only then did Camille raise her head to meet Ayan's eyes, and she replied, "Didn't you say to eat quietly?”That was something he had said a long time ago, but could it still be effective now?
And as she was the one calling the shots now, his words didn't have as much weight unless she agreed. If she did not agree,they were not valid.
He stared at her with a faint smile, his voice low as he said, "Are you listening to me now?"
Camille just smiled lightly, "Is that a problem? Are you unhappy when | listen to you?"
"| don't want you to be obedient like a wooden figure."
“What do you want then?"
"| would prefer you to be obedient in areas | like." Ayan hinted, his dark eyes growing deeper and more intense.
Pretending not to understand, Camille looked away, her voice soft, "Where will we meet Horace and Grace later? Will we gostraight there or back to the Armstrong family first?"
“Let's go to the Armstrong family; we need to discuss this matter with them as well. It's not just Grace's approval that's needed,both mother and daughter must agree." Ayan naturally separated Camille from the Armstrong family in his words.
But Camille didn't feel uncomfortable, as that was how she felt too.novelbin
Camille nodded lightly and added, "I'll take a quick shower and then rest for a bit."
"Alright." Camille hadn't had proper rest for the past few days, but it was necessary to ensure she was well-rested.After dinner, Camille went to bathe.
Ayan stayed downstairs in the hall, working on his laptop. Horace's call eventually came through.
Horace said, "I'm on my way to pick up Grace now; | should be back at the Armstrong family in about two hours. Should | talk toher about this situation now or wait until we're back home?"
"It's up to you. If you think you canhandle it while driving, you can onit up lightly. But be Suse| youteOdriying p0\hé" emotions get thebest of her, you'll have to stop andcalm her down. Can you guaranteeher calmness during that time?"Please read the original content atNovelDrama.Org.
After a brief pause, Horace replied, "I understand what you mean. I'll wait until we're back at the Armstrong family. Will you comewith me?"
"Of course."
"Alright." Horace hesitated for a moment before cautiously saying, "I don't think | can keep this relationship a secret from hermuch longer.”
