My Ex-husband Begs Me Back novel Chapter 1384

Chapter 1384 Impression

Ayan said, "It depends on the situation. If the circumstances are not favorable, then it's best to keep it a secret for now, especially with the current situation. The Armstrong family is eyeing Armstrong Corp, and you hold the most shares. At this time, many people will try to curry favor with you. If they know about your relationship with Grace, it might be difficult to escape moral coercion."

Horace was not good at dealing with these tricky matters, especially since Hance City was not his turf. Naturally, he was not as effective as Ayan in driving people away with a stern face.

So he naturally listened to Ayan's advice, saving himself and Grace a lot of trouble.

After a brief chat, the call ended. Ayan put down his phone, leaned back against the sofa, gazing silently at the ceiling, then picked up his phone again.

He called Kian, and when the call connected, he asked, "How's the investigation going? Any results?"

Kian replied, "Yes, I've found all the call records and numbers. I am cross-checking them one by one, and I discovered something unexpected."

"What is it?" Ayan asked indifferently.

Kian revealed his findings, causing Ayan to furrow his brows unconsciously.

"So I'm not sure if there is any relationship between these two people?" Kian continued.

"Find out as soon as possible, preferably by tonight, okay?"

"I understand," Kian replied quickly.

What Kian just mentioned caught Ayan off guard. As for the person he mentioned, Ayan had some impressions, but no one suspected or thought much about this person.

He furrowed his brows, his face unusually somber.

Things seemed to be getting more unpredictable.

About half an hour later, Kian called again.

Kian said, "Mr. Simpson, I've found out that they did have contact, but they haven't met recently, so I couldn't find any useful evidence for now."

"What about the child?" Ayan didn't care about any other evidence, but he knew of one more important and beneficial evidence than finding evidence.

Kian immediately understood, saying, "I got it."

Ayan was relatively satisfied, and Camille came downstairs at this time.

Probably hearing his previous words, she casually asked, "What child?"

Ayan remained calm, his voice gentle as he said, "It's not certain yet. We're still investigating."

"Is it related to the Armstrong family?" Camille naturally linked it to the Armstrong family, as Brody's affair with a child outside was not a secret. However, the identity of the child's mother and the child themselves were still unknown.

Ayan didn't deny it and looked into Camille's eyes, asking, "If that child is found and this incident is related to your father, how do you and Grace plan to deal with this child?"

This was a heavy and serious topic.

Camille was caught off guard by Ayan's sudden question, so she fell silent for a moment.

Her face stiffened, she paused, then said, "I haven't thought about this question. I don't want anything from the Armstrong family, but everything is Grace's. Even if there is another child outside, I think he has already set aside a lot for that child. If they really want Grace to split the current assets of the Armstrong family in half, that would be a bit excessive."

Camille didn't mind, but she didn't want everything to go to Grace either. If an outsider got a share, she wouldn't be happy about it.

She frowned, a hint of anger in her eyes. Seeing her angry, Ayan couldn't help but smile slightly.

Camille's rushed gesture puzzled Grace, but she didn't ask further. She just looked dazed, her mind blank.

She bit her lip and followed Camille into the Armstrong's villa.

Even though it was late, the lights were on in the Armstrong family, and the relatives were still there, unwilling to leave easily.

Grace had her fingerprint for the house, so she didn't need the servants to open the door; she could enter directly.

As she walked into the living room, she saw it packed with people. They were all familiar faces, but it had been a long time since she had seen them, so they felt both familiar and strange.

She stood there, frozen, without any reaction.

The people in the living room noticed the movement and instinctively looked over. Seeing Grace, they immediately rushed over, especially the two uncles, who almost ran to Grace the next second.

"Grace, you're back. You're finally back. Do something about your mom. Your mom hasn't been found yet, and your heartless father is relaxed, eating and sleeping without worrying about your mom at all!"

The two uncles took turns launching attacks on Grace, expressing their displeasure and accusations against Brody.

But Grace was stunned, especially when they mentioned that Page was still missing, which left her even more dumbfounded.

She remained unresponsive for a long time, just standing there with a blank expression, unsure of how to react.

Grace's reaction, or lack thereof, was like hitting a cotton ball, with no noticeable movement.

This displeased the two uncles, and they asked, "Grace, what do you mean? Why are you not reacting at all? Are you protecting your father? Do you know that your mom fell off a cliff because of your father, and she still hasn't been found? It's really precarious; do you know?"
