“What are you doing?” Before Candice could say a word, Alex’s loud voice came from behind. Candice frowned. “I just wanted her to make changes to the document.” “You want her to make changes to the document?” Alex sneered. He stared at Candice coldly. Candice immediately knew what that meant. He
Candice was shocked. She frowned. She instinctively looked at Alex who was standing a little further away and said, “I’m in a hurry. I don’t have time to have dinner with you guys.” Sonia bit her lip in silence. She snorted and got up slowly before she walked back to Alex. She looked like she had
Candice breathed carefully while standing in front of Alex’s desk. She stared at the man for a while and then said slowly, “You promised me to take care of my grandfather.” When Candice first brought Alex to meet her grandfather, he promised that as long as she continued to follow him and be an obe
Candice's heart skipped a beat as she instinctively looked at Alex. He didn't answer immediately but instead stared blankly at Candice.Having known Alex for a long time, Candice easily interpreted his silent gaze. She realized he was waiting for her to voluntarily explain.Joe, with a frown, shifts
"Candice, you're responsible for this document, aren't you?"Candice recognized it as one she had edited.Sonia expressed her disappointment, "There's an error in the data, and it was submitted late. This led to the client withdrawing their cooperation. This project has suffered because of this."S
"Candice? Innocent? Isn't she in the next room with that old man, Humphrey?" Sieg snorted, his tone tinged with disgust. "Everyone here is aware of the type of man he is."Humphrey Moore was infamously difficult to handle and known for his craftiness in the Dorrington City business scene.Despite Ca
Alex, with a cold snort, placed his hand on the steering wheel, pressed the gas pedal, and drove off.Outside, the wind was gusting, and Candice felt a chill. She attempted to close the window, but Alex objected."Keep it open! I can't bear the smell of alcohol on you."Despite being slightly drunk,
Upon their arrival in Noxville, a representative from their business partner was already waiting for them at the airport since early morning.For several years now, Alex had been accompanied by Candice on these business trips. Thus, the representative immediately approached them and gushed over them
After moving to Marina Bay Villa, Alex almost never worked overtime. Every day, he would appear at Ya Development, waiting for Candice to get off work. As for the BMW he gave Candice, it was left mostly unused.The few ladies in the company were familiar with Alex and were extremely envious of Candi
For the next few days, Candice brought lunch to Alex, even though it was all prepared by Alex.Candice found it a bit bothersome, but Alex seemed to enjoy it. It just so happened that both she and Yana had been meeting clients in the same area lately, so it was convenient to fulfill Alex's little wi
Alex mentioned someone having their eyes on him, and Candice hadn’t thought much about it at first. But later, she realized it was true when she saw a photo Kayla sent her. It showed a young, pretty woman with Sawyer, who seemed quite respectful toward her. What caught Candice's attention the most
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 felt nothing. She asked with a stiff tone, "If I do what you say, will you stop following me around and stop targeting Hanley?"She had to admit that she had invested too much time in Alex; she was once innocent and carefree, but she was just confused now. Recalling the past, Candice felt n
Looking at the lemon candies on the table, Candice blinked in slight confusion as she looked up at Hanley.Hanley remained composed. Noticing Candice's gaze, he locked eyes with her and pursed his lips slightly when he caught the worry and guilt in her eyes.After a moment, he said, "You can tell me
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
