My Ex-husband Begs Me Back novel Chapter 1448

Chapter 1448 Selling Out

After a brief pause, Camille took a deep breath and said, "I understand what you mean, and I feel the same way about you. So, don't have any wild thoughts. Even though we didn't grow up together, aren't we doing well now?"

Camille tilted her head and looked at Grace, with a faint smile on her lips. She said, "Not only are we doing well now, but we will also do well in the future, right?"

"Yes, we will only get better in the future," Grace said as she opened her arms to hug Camille.

Her actions made Camille stiffen slightly, feeling a bit uncomfortable, but it was just a small discomfort, not enough to worry about. What troubled Camille was the unusual behavior of Grace.

Because Camille always felt Grace's reactions were somewhat odd, a strange taste one couldn't quite place.

After Grace released her, Camille couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you? Did something happen? Do you need to tell me the truth?"

At these words, Grace immediately smiled and said, "I'm fine, don't worry. If anything happens, I will let you know!"

"Good to hear," Camille replied, still feeling slightly uneasy but not saying anything more.

The two didn't linger and went straight to the police station.

Kian had arranged everything, so when Camille and Grace arrived, they were promptly received by a policewoman they had met before when accompanying Grace to see Regina.

She told them, "Hold on a moment. Mr. Armstrong needs to prepare."

Camille casually asked, "What needs to be prepared? Isn't he already under detention?"

If it was just detention, shouldn't there be no need for preparation?

So, Camille's question was out of curiosity, but the policewoman seemed a bit dazed after hearing it, then smiled and said, "I'm not sure either because it's not my responsibility. Let me go check, please wait."

Camille nodded and thanked her.

The policewoman returned in less than five minutes. Brody was ready, and she led the two to the small dark room where Brody was being held.

It was the first time the two of them had come together to see Brody. Before, Grace had met him alone. So, when Camille saw Brody, she was slightly taken aback. Brody looked rather disheveled.

Due to Ayan's specific instructions, there was no special treatment inside, as the matter had garnered too much attention. If there were any special treatment, it would likely lead to trouble.

Brody was furious and agitated. He slammed the table in front of him with force but couldn't make any other move due to his restraints. He said, "Grace, have you gone mad?"

Grace just smiled, releasing all the accumulated emotions on Brody at that moment. She smiled indifferently and said, "Exactly, I'm crazy. Aren't we all the Armstrong family crazy? Why would you do such things if you're not crazy? If mom isn't crazy, why has she refused to divorce you until now? Everyone is crazy, so isn't it normal for me to go crazy too?"

Grace's eyes were cold and filled with a chilling indifference as she continued, "Dad, I'm just learning from you. You always wanted me to learn from you, right? Now that I've learned from you, why are you unhappy?"

Grace's words were almost driving Brody crazy.

But what could he do? He had to bear it, after all, he was the hero now!

Since Grace was completely unreliable, Brody turned his gaze to Camille. He looked at her and ignored Grace entirely, saying, "Cami, listen to me. Transfer all the shares to your name. You are also a part of the Armstrong family. You can inherit Armstrong Corp's shares together with Grace. With Ayan by your side, Grace is no match for you. Trust me, have Ayan get me out of here, and everything from now on will be yours. I don't want anything."

Brody knew that only Camille had the ability to help him now. If Camille sided with him, he could thwart Grace's plans.

So, all his hopes were now pinned on Camille. He looked at her expectantly, his eyes filled with hope, but Camille just calmly met his gaze, neither refusing nor agreeing. Brody waited and waited, almost desperately.
