Alex brought Sonia to the party nevertheless, but everyone could tell that they just had an argument. Sonia sat down in a corner with a blank face and Alex did not even bother to cheer her up or console her. Sieg and Alex were rather close, so he went over to Alex with a glass of wine for a chat.

However, at the next second, Alex pulled his hand back and the shadows before Candice’s eyes disappeared. She subtly frowned. Alex sneered, “You really think I want to sleep with you?” Candice’s eyelids froze for a moment. She took a deep breath and opened her eyes. “Then what do you want to do?

Alex's expression was gloomy as he stared at the necklace. "What’s with this gift? She’s a kid. What if she swallows it? It's a choking hazard! Let’s return it."Candice calmly took the necklace and placed it back in the box. She said to Ellis, "We'll give it to you when you grow up."Ellis, innocen
When Sieg called Alex to invite him for a drink, Alex was shopping for Ellis’s clothes with Candice. He had several little dresses draped over one arm as he dutifully assisted Candice.Sieg's voice was loud, causing Candice to pause in her selection of clothes and turn to Alex. "If you have somethin
Candice was brought back to Alex's own home. She felt like a puppet with no thoughts of her own and could only follow Alex's lead. Her mind was blank, and her body was weighted down as if filled with lead.Alex guided her into the study. "I wasn't planning on showing you this so soon, but after try

Candice had always known that Alex had a sharp tongue, but she never expected him to use Hanley's mother to jab at his wound.They all knew that Hanley had gone abroad this time because his mother was not doing well.She trembled slightly, but she was unsure if it was out of anger or if she was remi
