My Ex-husband Begs Me Back novel Chapter 1445

Chapter 1445: Thoughtful

Horace noticed that there was no sign of intimacy between Grace and anyone filming, instead, he gave a slight smile and looked at Camille, saying, "You seem alright?"

"Mr. Burris, are you implying that I look terrible?" Camille replied lightly.

Horace still had a faint smile on his face as he said, "You better not let Mr. Simpson hear that, I'm afraid he'll retaliate because of it."

"Wow, are you implying that Mr. Simpson is such a retaliatory person in your eyes?" Camille pretended to look exaggerated.

Horace helplessly smiled, shaking his head, "If I continue, I might end up saying everything wrong, right?"

Grace quickly interjected, "Okay, you better keep quiet now, you won't win against Cami."

Horace nodded and said, "Yes, you're right." He gestured for them to go ahead and said, "After you, ladies."

Camille and Grace didn't hesitate, linking arms and stepping through the gates of Armstrong Corp.

The news of the two women entering Armstrong Corp spread online instantly. Watching Horace bow and smile at them, the netizens expressed a lot of sympathy and concern for him, and once again, they expressed great dissatisfaction, particularly towards Camille.

They believed that Camille was riding on Ayan's coattails to oppress Horace. Since Camille had used Ayan's car today, they assumed she must have whispered something in Ayan's ear last night, as Ayan hadn't responded or taken action regarding her trending news yet.

The netizens even warned Ayan not to be fooled by the fox, shouting, "Mr. Simpson, you must not be blinded by love, Mr. Simpson, you must stay calm!"

"Mr. Simpson, we hope you can exhibit your usual sharpness in dealing with this, be cautious of Camille, don't let her deceive you."

Many believed that a man like Ayan, surrounded by beautiful women, shouldn't be misled by a woman like Camille, as they assumed she was intentionally seducing him.

But the parties involved paid no attention to these comments, completely indifferent, and unaffected, ignoring the voices of the people.

Camille and Grace followed Horace into Armstrong Corp and directly to Horace's office.

Grace approached Horace, asking, "Ajin, what do you think of the message I sent you about that matter? Is it alright to proceed? Any issues with it?"

While attending Brody's farewell meeting at the police station, Grace had previously messaged Horace to seek his opinion. She was concerned about the implications of their actions.

Camille and Grace were engrossed in conversation when he entered. Their eyes naturally fell on him. Horace said, "Eat first, it might require energy later."

He intended to imply to Grace that she probably hadn't eaten. Camille and even Grace knew this unsaid concern. Although she didn't want anyone to worry or be troubled, even Horace or Camille, she was aware of their concerns. While things seemed better now, the politeness she displayed during their initial acquaintance was exceptional.

At times, Horace felt helpless thinking about it.

He packed Grace's favorite foods. Camille and Grace's smiles confirmed they understood. Camille remarked, "Mr. Burris is truly considerate."

Grace blushed instantly, feeling a bit embarrassed. Horace just smiled lightly and asked, "Mrs. Simpson, are you teasing me?"

Calling her Mrs. Simpson left Camille momentarily speechless, signaling that she didn't wish to continue. Though others had used that title, it felt somewhat uncomfortable when familiar people addressed her that way.

The trio had a simple meal before the arrival of around fifteen people.

Armstrong Corp had been predominantly owned by the Armstrong family, but the old Armstrong distributed shares among several individuals who had accompanied him on the journey of establishing Armstrong Corp. These shares were essential for the company's operation and came with agreements preventing their transfer under any circumstances.
