My Ex-husband Begs Me Back

Chapter 1299: Belittlement

Chapter 1299: Belittlement

Even through the phone, Camille could clearly sense Page's anger. She shouted, "Camille, are you not

listening to me now?"

"You're thinking too much. I've been listening. If I don't wait for you to finish speaking, will you blame

me for being impolite and disrespectful?"

Camille spoke lightly, without any hint of aggression in her tone. It seemed as if she no longer cared

about Page's attitude or reaction.

Of course, Page was extremely unhappy with this attitude. She had a cold expression on her face, full

of hostility, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I don't mean anything!"

"Then are you going to find Horace or not?"

"Where should I find him?"

"You can't find him? Don't you know to ask Ayan for help? Don't you have a good relationship with

Ayan? Can't you ask him for assistance? Although you have a good relationship with him, you should

know that you will always be an outsider in the Simpson family. Do you know what an outsider is? It

means that no matter how well they treat you, you will never be one of their own. You should remember

your own surname."

These words had been repeated countless times. Camille felt like she could recite them backward

effortlessly. She sighed silently and finally interrupted Page's words, asking, "So, you want me to

involve Ayan in Armstrong Corp's affairs. Are you prepared for the fact that Ayan might also want a

piece of the pie?"

"Isn't the Simpson Group enough? Don't you know the current situation of Armstrong Corp? At this

time, you still want to benefit from it. Are you trying to infuriate me? Can't you stand the Armstrong

family being in a good position?"

Page started another round of bombardment. This time, Camille decided to cut her off directly, with a

slightly stern tone, "If you continue speaking like this, then don't call me anymore."

Page was taken aback because Camille rarely used such a cold and stern tone when talking to her.

Even when her attitude was very poor, it was always cold and indifferent, not oppressive like it felt now.

During Page's silence, Camille spoke calmly and unhurriedly, "Since you believe that any benefits of

the Armstrong family have nothing to do with me, how can you ask for my help when the Armstrong

family has a problem? Are you putting yourself in a difficult position or me? Do you think I would

genuinely help the Armstrong family? After all, it doesn't benefit me in any way. In your eyes, I am just a

selfish person. Why would I help?"

Normally, Camille wouldn't be so blunt. At most, she would pretend not to hear or let it go in one ear

and out the other. But now her mood was far from beautiful, especially when she thought about those

terrible things. She found it irritating, and Page's call at this time, questioning and instructing her

without any distinction, was something Camille couldn't tolerate.

Camille took a deep breath and, without waiting for Page to speak, said again, "Don't call me anymore.

I won't help the Armstrong family with anything. I've already sold my shares in Armstrong Corp to

Horace. It's your business with him now. It has nothing to do with me. If you want me to get involved in

Armstrong Corp's affairs, then transfer a portion of your shares to me. It's as simple as that!"

After finishing her words, Camille hung up the phone without giving Page any chance to respond.

Her expression was extremely indifferent, her gaze coldly fixed on the disconnected phone. A chilling

sensation emerged in her eyes. After taking a deep breath, she regained her composure and resumed

working. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Camille didn't pay much attention to the matter because she adapted quickly and had long given up

hope for the Armstrong family. It didn't have much impact on her.

However, Page harbored great resentment towards Camille for her words and for abruptly ending the

call. This incident led to a significant dispute between Page and Brody once again.

Page was asked by Brody to make the call since they couldn't reach Horace. There was no trace of

Horace at the company, and the secretary didn't mention anything about his schedule. This displeased

Brody greatly. He believed that as the chairman of Armstrong Corp, even if Horace was currently

handling all the affairs, he still needed to report regularly and inform him of his schedule.

But Horace didn't do that, and Brody felt that Horace didn't value him.

Brody was a person with deep insecurities yet immense arrogance. Whenever someone showed even

a slight coldness towards him, he felt they were looking down on him and disrespecting him. He

unconsciously magnified all his thoughts and emotions, giving rise to various dissatisfactions.

Of course, the purpose of that call was for Camille to ask Ayan to investigate Horace, but Camille

refused and questioned Page instead.

They used to argue, but it never reached the point of pushing someone down and rubbing their face in

the ground. Now, Brody was completely disregarding any sense of dignity, and every word was filled

with great mockery and belittlement.

The conflicts between the two had been increasing, especially because Armstrong Corp was currently

being overshadowed. They couldn't hold their heads up high in public. After all, their company was

being controlled by outsiders, and many people were laughing behind their backs. Although Brody

would claim that others were working for him and he could enjoy it from home, only he knew the true

bitterness and pain. Read at

Thinking about all these things, Page's mood became extremely bad.
