My Ex-husband Begs Me Back
Chapter 1392: Choked Up

Chapter 1392: Choked Up

Camille pressed her lips together, her voice indifferent: "Aunt."

"Aunt?"

"Yes, it's her." Camille continued: "After the incident, she came to the house, probably to clear her name. But then she left again, my uncle said it was because of something urgent with her child, so she had to rush back. At the time, my uncle even joked about what could be more important than the current situation? Just comfort the child a bit, would've been enough? Now thinking back, it was probably because of the college entrance exam, that's a top priority, so she couldn't stay and wait for this to be resolved."

As for that phone call heard at Brody's study entrance, it was most likely with the aunt, and just now at the funeral parlor as well.

All these pieces put together seemed to make sense.

Grace shook her head, her expression cold as she looked at Camille, she said: "How is that possible? The relationship between Aunt and Mom was the best, Mom trusted her the most. And many times when Mom and Dad had disagreements, it was Aunt's advice that helped Mom. Aunt raised a child on her own after being abandoned by her first love, so Mom often supported her. Although it's just a cousin relationship, it was more like a sisterly bond!!"

Even the blood-related uncles were no match, especially when Page had any issues, it was always the aunt who showed up first.

How could such a person be Brody's mistress?

Grace really couldn't accept this, so she felt overwhelmed, one thing after another happening that she couldn't handle.

She raised her hand and hugged her head tightly, her voice choked up, "How could this be?"

Horace immediately went to hold her, but Ayan didn't stop there.

Ayan said: "Tonight, they recorded a conversation, according to the current evidence, the probability that it was her is almost ninety-nine percent, as for the remaining one percent, that can only be addressed face-to-face."

Ayan had Kian check the call records, which turned out to be the contact information of this cousin aunt.

As for the child, because they were so well-protected, they couldn't find any real information yet. But with the reactions they displayed these past days, even in just their phone usage, it was clear. Brody probably didn't use his phone much to contact this woman, so there was no way to infer their relationship from past records.

Based on the evidence now presented, it could be confirmed that Brody and this woman might have other phones and even those numbers weren't registered under their real identities.

Ayan then presented a few more detailed pieces of evidence, which were enough to confirm some sort of relationship between the two.

So at this point, Grace had to believe even if she didn't want to.

She stayed silent for a long time, unable to accept this fact even at this stage.

Camille gently tugged at Ayan's arm, whispering, "Can you give us some advice? With the current situation, it's definitely not suitable to expose their relationship, right?"

"Naturally. In the current situation, it's best to solve one thing at a time because too many people are involved. If this matter were to come out directly, Armstrong Corp would likely be implicated. From a businessman's perspective, if Mrs. Armstrong's death is directly related to Mr. Armstrong, then Mr. Armstrong will need to face legal responsibilities, and everything under Mr. Armstrong would be yours. If it's revealed that Mr. Armstrong has another child at this time, then you'll have to divide some as well. Will you be willing to do that?"

Ayan, as an outsider, gave the most direct advice, but his underlying message was to remove Camille, because she didn't need anything from the Armstrong family. As long as she had him, she could have everything she wanted. And if she didn't want it, then everything would naturally belong to Grace. He had no objection to that, and it would be impossible for others to interfere.

Ayan's words made Grace feel even more down, with everything happening in just a short day, she couldn't process everything.

Grace remained silent for a while before asking softly, "I never wanted anything from Armstrong Corp, or the Armstrong family. If I ever cared about money and fame, I would've chosen a wealthy husband a long time ago."

Before the Armstrong family faced troubles, even though they weren't extremely wealthy, they had a close relationship with the Simpson family, giving them a certain status in social circles. Grace, being an outstanding person, was admired by many wealthy wives, wanting her to be their daughter-in-law. However, Page had high standards for her, so she didn't even consider an ordinary wealthy family. Grace herself didn't care about these things much, as she had been well-protected, working hard to meet her parents' expectations and make herself better. Most importantly, she had always admired Ayan, standing at the top, so she didn't see anyone else.

So she didn't value anything from the Armstrong family, and even if it was divided, she didn't mind.

Camille couldn't help but speak up, "I know your thoughts, we all know. But you have to understand if you don't strive to hold onto what's yours, everything will be given to them. Aunt used her relationship with Mom to get close to Dad and even gave birth to a son for him. This kind of betrayal, can Mom handle it? Will she be willing to give up everything if you just hand it over?"

"We can't expose their relationship now. At least until this is sorted out, we need to act like we don't know anything. They'll relax that way, and if Mom's death is related to Dad, then this was all premeditated. Can you really accept that?"

Camille's emotions were stirred up after this incident, as she couldn't stand a man calculating against his devoted wife. If this wasn't an accident, she couldn't accept Brody's actions either.

With everyone's advice, Grace's heart remained confused. Horace spoke up, "Don't rush. If you're tired, let's rest first, and decide after a good night's sleep. Let's wait until morning to talk about everything, okay?"

Grace had no objections, her mind was too jumbled right now to give a proper answer.

After Camille spoke so much, Grace didn't respond at all, could this make Camille feel a bit disappointed?
