"You didn't know that?"
âI'm afraid I misjudged.â
Especially after the conversation with Preston, she had some
questioning thoughts about herself.
Ayan stared at her deeply, said with his gentle voice: "Camille, in fact,
you know very well in your heart, Armstrong Corp is too dependent on
the outside world, because the operation model is too old and has not
been innovated, therefore, it is losing money. It's not a long-term
strategy to tear down the wall on the eastside to mend the wall on the
westside, so is your judgment wrong or right?"
Camille was slightly stunned, therefore, her eyelids were
subconsciously fluttering, Ayan said exactly what she was thinking.
When she stopped talking, Ayan asked, "Do you want me to walk you
to the Armstrong's villa?"
Camille shook her head and said, "No need.â
I don't think she's needed at the moment, maybe she'll just upset Brody
and Page?
The news about the Armstrong family hung around the major forums all
night.
The Armstrong's villa was brightly lit all night long and no one could
sleep.
Brody sat in the living room, smoking one cigarette after another, Page
was also crying several times, she asked: "Brody, how about we go to
the Simpson's mansion to find the Old Simpson to discuss it?"
Brody shook his head, his voice sounded as if he had completely lost
confidence: âIt's no use, the Armstrong Corp has too many problems
and owes too much debt, it doesn't work out......."
He repeated "It doesn't work out" twice, so that Page also could not
help crying out.
Page said emotionally, "You always say it doesn't work out, how do you
know if you don't try? It's Camille's fault, she's useless, it's all her ......"
"That's enough! Are you annoyed? Will you leave me alone?" Brody
interrupted Page coldly and drove out of the house.
It was already dark outside, and the Armstrong's villa was left with only
Page and Grace.
Grace also thought a lot of ways, she actually called the Simpson's
mansion side first, but the phone was answered by the housekeeper,
the response is only the Old Simpson is not feeling well, wait for the
Old Simpson better and then relayed.
She actually wanted to go directly to Ayan, but she understood that
Ayan would not buy her account, let alone agree to her.
Grace didn't know what to do? She simply didn't have the attention or
any way to do it.
Because of this incident, her circle of friends also began to alienate,
and several also pulled her immediately.
She suddenly saw through the hearts of people, those who usually
follow her are only on the face of the Armstrong family and Simpson
family, few are sincere.
Grace stayed with Page afterwards, and the night was destined to be a
difficult one.
A night passes.
Armstrong Corp's debt problems and layoffs that led to employees
jumping off buildings are still unresolved, and the Armstrong family and
Armstrong Corp have had red paint thrown on them in the middle of the
night, with a stinging message attached.
"Black-hearted companies, give me back my job, give me back justice!"
Such a scene has once again put the Armstrong family and Armstrong
Corp in the hot seat.
Brody came to the company last night, he also did not close his eyes all
night, the whole person has aged a lot, the pair of eyes boiled red.
At the moment surrounded by employees begging to talk, it was his
secretary who had been following him, Alfie Ball, who escorted him
safely to the parking lot.
After Brody got in the car, Alfie now said; "Mr. Armstrong, the hospital
has news, the two employees who jumped off the building are fine, only
their feet and hands have multiple fractures, recuperate for a period of
time will be fine."
"That's good news, you go and contact the family, I'll find a way to pay
them compensation, I just hope they can remove the damage to
Armstrong Corp's reputation.â
"Mr. Armstrong, I also talked to them according to your idea, but they
are completely lionized, and even asked for compensation of three
million a person.â
"What?"
Brody froze momentarily.
One person is three million, two people is six million.
This is no small amount of money that the Armstrong family simply
cannot afford at this time.
Brody asked, "How much money is currently in the company's
account?â
Alfie blushed and responded in a low voice: "Mr. Armstrong, less than
300,000."
"What about the money that the Simpson Group settled earlier?"
"That money paid the interest on the other money owed, and it was
only just enough for interest, so Mr. Armstrong, what do we do next?"
Brody was silent for a moment.
Shoulders like a million pounds of stone weighing him down, so he
simply can not breathe.
As soon as he was quiet his ears kept repeating the sound of being
chased for debt repayment, the sound made his head numb as if it
would directly explode in the next second as painful as unbearable.
When Alfie didn't hear a response from him, he turned around and
asked, "Mr. Armstrong, shall I take you home first?"
"Mr. Armstrong? Mr. Armstrong?"
Brody leaned back in the back seat with his eyes closed and did not
respond, Alfie shouted several times without response before he
realized that Brody might have passed out.
In the hospital, Brody is being resuscitated.
Brody is in a coma from acute fire caused by too much mental stress
and is not doing very well.
Grace and Page also came as soon as they got the news, and Page
cried out in anxiety: "How can a good person be like this?"
Grace gently reassured Page: "Mom, Dad will be fine, we have to trust
him, huh?"
Page pursed his lips and kept nodding his head.
Now there is no good way, except to pray and believe in him, they as
family members can not do anything.
Brody was pushed out half an hour later and although his life was not in
danger, it was not known when he would wake up?
Back in the hospital room, Grace asked Page to stay with Brody while
she went home to pack some supplies and a change of clothes, and
while she was at it, she sent a message to Camille.
She told Camille : "Dad is in the hospital and not doing well, so if you
still think of yourself as the Armstrong come and see him."
Camille was eating breakfast and put down her chopsticks when she
saw what Grace had sent.
She immediately got up, "I have to go to the hospital.â
"What's wrong?"
"Grace said Dad was in the hospital and not doing very well, so I went
over to check."
Ayan immediately accompanied her out of the house, but he didn't
expect to meet his grandmother at the door.
Grandma looked at Camille: * Why didn't the Armstrong family tell me
about what happened?"
Grandma doesn't look at her phone or watch TV, but she reads the
newspaper, so she just found out and rushed to Camille.
Camille didn't explain much, just said, "Don't be in a hurry, I'm going
over there now."
She didn't say she was going to the hospital so that her grandmother
wouldn't worry.
Grandmother did not ask much, but only instructed her, "Good, you
hurry up and say everything properly.â
Camille nodded and went out the door with Ayan.
When the two arrived at the hospital, Ayan went straight to Dr. Ellis for
information and then took Dr. Ellis to the hospital room with him.
But they didn't even enter the ward before they were blocked by Page.
Page pointed at Camille and glared at her, "Get out! Get out of here!"
"Camille, how can you still have the nerve to come here? If you hadn't
even refused to help, how could your father and Armstrong Corp have
become like this?"
Page directly reached out and pushed Camille, and Ayan immediately
swept her up behind him for protection.
Camille looked soberly at Page , and she said, "You can't see me, but
Dad needs Dr. Ellis in his current situation, so let Dr. Ellis in?"
Page naturally knew Dr. Ellis and knew how competent Dr. Ellis was in
the medical field]. .
But at the moment, her resentment and anger towards Camille took
over all her composure and she said, "I don't need your charity,
Camille, if anything happens to your father, you will live in
condemnation for the rest of your life, and you will not be rewarded.â
"Are you really sure?" Camille met Page's gaze and said lightly,
"Refusing to let Dr. Ellis in to see Dad so I could receive a reprimand?
And are you an accomplice?â
