"You..." Page's cousin couldn't find words at the moment. She just felt that Camille couldn't leave, because as long as Camille was there, no matter what happened, someone would be responsible. But if Camille left, what would happen if something went wrong?
Camille looked at her lightly, her voice warm and indifferent. "Staying here serves no purpose for me. I have done everything I could to arrange for people to search and have reported to the police for investigation. All that's left now is to wait. As for Grace, I will find a way to contact her."
After that, Camille took Ayan's hand and left the villa.
Exiting the Armstrong's villa, Camille took a deep breath, her face darkened to the extreme.
Since this matter has not been fully disclosed, not many people know about it for now.
So at this moment, Camille felt like she was in a somewhat unreal state. She looked at Ayan and asked, "Ayan, what exactly has happened to her now?"
She had no foreboding, no telepathic connection.
She felt like she was just a piece of wood, like an emotionless machine.
Her unease and emotions made Ayan's expression serious. In a gentle voice, he said, "Don't think too much. We have conducted a large-scale search, and results will come soon. I have also arranged for Horace's family to bring Grace back tonight."
In fact, everyone had already guessed the worst-case scenario deep down, but at the moment, they were all clinging to a thread of hope.
Camille pursed her lips lightly, nodding slightly. Her mood was complicated, and she didn't know how to describe it.
The two of them returned to the car. Just as they were about to leave, they suddenly heard Kian, who was driving, say in a low voice, "Mr. Simpson, someone has come out from the back door of the villa. Should we intercept?"
Camille immediately sat up straight, her eyes fixed on the front. Indeed, a woman stooped and quickly walked out of the villa, probably afraid of being discovered, which was why she walked fast but kept her body bent.
Camille said with a solemn face, "My father has told me several times that someone in the Armstrong family has been bought by Preston. Is it this person?"
If it was, then the reason she slipped away now was self-explanatory.
Ayan said to Kian, "Go intercept her, then have someone come and take her away. With Preston's current situation, even if he can't do much, once he knows about this, he will definitely spread the news everywhere. It's not yet public, so the fewer people who know, the better."
Once the news of Page falling off the cliff came out, the police would be pressured to investigate instead of searching for someone. This would cause great damage to Armstrong Corp, and if this incident was related to Brody, Armstrong Corp might face public resistance.
Even though Brody currently had no say in Armstrong Corp's management, the fact remained that Armstrong Corp was still Armstrong Corp. As long as it bore the Armstrong name, any incident involving the Armstrong family would implicate Armstrong Corp.
This was an undeniable fact.
Kian immediately got out of the car and hurried towards the servant who was walking away. After Kian got out, there were only Camille and Ayan left in the car.
After so many years of marriage, overlooking the faults and focusing on the good, at the very least, they had a child together. Shouldn't the bond forged by these factors prevent them from resorting to violence?
Camille lifted her hands to cover her eyes, took a deep breath, and didn't want to think about it further.
Because it was just too irritating.
After a while, Kian returned.
Kian said, "Mr. Simpson, I have had someone take her away. I probed her at first, and she initially refused to admit, claiming she just wanted to go home. She sneaked out because, given the circumstances, she feared being rejected if she returned at this time. However, I threatened to inform the Armstrong family directly if she didn't speak, and pressured by the situation and fearing the Armstrong family finding out, she admitted that she indeed intended to call Preston about the matter."
"I have had someone watch over her for now. Do you need anything else?"
"No, just keep an eye on her. Once this matter can no longer be concealed, then release her." It probably wouldn't be more than a day or two since many search teams were deployed. The search range identified by Brody was expanding, and drone searches had also begun. If the person did fall off the cliff as Brody claimed, finding them was only a matter of time.
To verify if Brody was telling the truth, the investigation would be divided into two parts: investigating their recent trips and finding the person.
From the surveillance footage obtained, it seemed that their relationship had indeed changed a lot. They were holding hands and laughing together as if they had never had any grievances as a loving couple.
But was it really like that?
