Chapter 1235: Mistake

Chapter 1235: Mistake

Sienna became more and more excited as she spoke. Camille found it

amusing to see her defending her so passionately, but it also warmed

her heart.

Camille's face showed a smile, and Sienna said, "I'm telling you, even if

it were your mother, I would scold her. Isn't this bullying? If that's the

case, why bother giving birth to you? It would be better to just strangle

you at birth. I've never seen biological parents so biased and

disgusting. How could they say such things? They really want to have

their cake and eat it too."

"Yes, I think you're right, and I agree with you. But don't get angry.

Being angry is not good for your health. I'm already used to it, and I'm

not angry at all now."

Camille comforted Sienna softly, reaching out to pull her to sit beside

her. She said, "She wants me to apologize, but there's no way I'm

going to apologize. You can rest assured about that. However, not only

will I not apologize, but I will also tell Ayan about this."

"Yes, tell Ayan. Tell him now."

Sienna handed Camille her phone.

Camille messaged Ayan, and he replied, "They know it was Horace

who said it. They will find out about this sooner or later. Instead of them

finding out later, it's better to let them know now. Originally, I planned

for them to know and try to appease you, but it seems their intelligence

is really lacking."

Ayan had asked Horace to inform the Armstrong family because he felt

that the Armstrong family had treated Camille unfairly. He wanted them

to realize Camille's worth through this incident. However, it seemed that

they had completely misunderstood the rules. They believed that as

long as Camille spoke kindly to them, they could resolve the matter,

without considering the opportunity to make Alicia apologize to Camille,

displaying the Nores family's dominance.

Ayan now realized that telling them was a mistake. It gave them a

chance to cause trouble for Camille and put her in a bad mood. He

whispered to Camille, “It's my fault for not considering everything. I will

have Kian tell the Armstrong family to stay quiet and not bother you

anymore.”

“I'm fine. I just wanted to let you know that I was wronged today.”

Camille made her complaint confidently, with a touch of arrogance in

her tone.

Sienna couldn't help but laugh, but she had to hold back.

On the other end of the phone, Ayan found it cute. He liked it when

Camille depended on him, relied on him for everything, and let him

solve all the big and small matters. It made him happy.

Ayan patiently coaxed Camille, and the two of them chatted

undisturbed for a while.

After ending the call, Camille finally looked at Sienna, and their gazes

met. Sienna said lightly, "Are you this submissive in front of Mr.

Simpson?"

"Are you not in front of Rex?"

“Well, I'm not. I've always been a queen.”

"Okay, hello, queen,” Camille playfully greeted, knowing well that

Sienna was just joking. In reality, everyone is quite childish in front of

their loved ones.

Camille initially thought that the matter had come to an end, and the

Armstrong family wouldn't stir up trouble anymore.

However, Camille underestimated the Armstrong family's knack for

causing trouble. They seemed to be following the principle of “no harm,

no death.”

That evening, the Nores family received a phone call.

It was Mr. Nores himself who called.

On the phone, Mr. Nores said to Ayan, "Mr. Simpson, is that how this

matter ends? Can our project resume from tomorrow? The fault in this

incident indeed lies with us. Our daughter was ignorant, but I didn't

expect Mrs. Simpson to be so magnanimous. I also thank Mr. Simpson

for not holding it against us."

Mr. Nores couldn't contain his happiness in his words, almost bursting

into laughter.

However, Ayan listened with a puzzled expression, his face impassive.

After Mr. Nores finished speaking, he asked indifferently, “Do you know

what you're talking about?"

Mr. Nores hesitated for a moment and fell silent instantly.

The atmosphere became quiet all of a sudden.

Ayan's voice sounded again, "Mr. Nores, if you think you can let this

matter pass by pretending to be crazy and foolish, then I can only tell

you that you're using the wrong approach.”

Mr. Nores finally vaguely understood Ayan's meaning, but he still asked

uncertainly, "Mr. Simpson, what do you mean? Didn't you ask Mrs.

Simpson's mother to talk to my wife and end this matter? And now

you..."

"I asked Mrs. Simpson's mother? Mr. Nores, are you mistaken?" Ayan

snorted coldly and said indifferently, "If Mr. Nores doesn't want to

apologize, then there's no need for this call. Why bother finding more

excuses?"

"Mr. Simpson, I'm not making excuses. I'm speaking the truth!"

"Oh, is that so? Then how do you prove that it was authorized by me?

How do you prove that it was my intention? Mr. Nores, you really don't

understand me. Do I look like someone who is so easy to deal with?

Would I proactively send someone to inform the party at fault that I

don't care about this matter anymore?"

Ayan left Mr. Nores speechless with every word he uttered, and Mr.

Nores began to silently reflect on the authenticity of the matter.

However, Ayan didn't give Mr. Nores any more chances to speak and

hung up the phone directly.

Ayan tossed his phone aside, emanating an aura of anger. Camille,

seeing this, hastily asked, "Did the Armstrong family go to the Nores

family?"

Camille's face was filled with astonishment, and she had a rough idea

from Ayan's previous statement.

Ayan noticed her worried gaze, but as their eyes met, his eyes instantly

softened, and his voice became particularly gentle as he said, "Yes, the

Armstrong family went to the Nores family and told them that no

apology was necessary. They even apologized to the Nores family.”

Upon hearing this, Camille's heart turned cold. She smiled helplessly,

her eyes filled with a ridiculous resignation. She looked at Ayan and

incredulously said, "Do you think they can never stand me? In their

eyes, no matter when or what happens, it's always my fault?"

Camille's laughter was filled with helplessness. Although she already

understood Brody Page's mindset, she never expected them to go this

far.

Camille took a deep breath and looked at Ayan with a distant gaze. She

said, "I really feel like we're not even a family."

After Camille spoke, Ayan immediately walked over and embraced her

in his arms.

He was heartbroken.

Especially when he saw how uncomfortable Camille was but still tried

to maintain her composure, Ayan's heart ached even more.

He squinted his eyes, his handsome face exuding a cold and indifferent

chill. He said to Camille, "I'll handle this matter. If the Armstrong family

truly thinks this project is important, then don't waste any more time.

Simply announce your withdrawal. If they're unwilling to withdraw, then

they should stay quiet and not say another word."

Camille reached out and gently wrapped her arms around his waist,

speaking softly, “Okay, I'll follow your lead.”

As the Nores family didn't receive confirmation from Ayan, they

immediately contacted Page.

Page, however, said, "That's impossible! My daughter, Camille,

personally told me that your daughter offended her, so it's up to Camille

to say whether an apology is needed or not. As for Ayan, I suppose

he's just overly indulgent towards Camille, which is why he's reluctant.

Don't worry, I'll have a good talk with Camille and make her tell Ayan

not to pursue this matter any further."

Page completely regarded herself as the sole authority who could

arrange everything with just a single word. She didn't think there was

anything inappropriate about her actions and rather enjoyed the feeling

of being looked up to.

The Nores family felt uncertain due to Page's words, unsure whom to

believe.
