Sonia's face stiffened. "He has to work overtime tonight. He's very busy.""Even if he's busy, he still needs to eat, right? Oh, Sonia, you wouldn't be unwilling to let your boyfriend meet us poor relatives, right? Let me tell you, this won't do..."Jocelyn's tone was somewhat dissatisfied, and Soni
Shawn's directness caught Candice somewhat by surprise. However, she only paused for a moment before gently saying, "The matter between Alex and I is all in the past."Hearing this, Shawn couldn't help but sigh, and the disappointment in his eyes was evident. However, he didn't say anything more. Du
Daniel's voice resonated with an indescribable authority, and the entire living room was empty.Alex, whose face had been calm, suddenly turned cold. His dark eyes fixed on Daniel. Before he could speak, a more severe reprimand came from behind him, "You didn't listen to me back then, yet you're mak
The grievance in Sonia's eyes transformed into a lament. The name of Candice was the one she could hardly bear to hear now.If not for Candice, Alex would never have been so heartless to her.Yes.Sonia suddenly lifted her head, remembering the night when her affair with Xavier had been discovered.
Sonia spoke in a low voice, leaning close to Candice's ear. After finishing, she affectionately grabbed Candice's arm, her tone softening, "Candice, you've had a bit too much to drink. Let me help you rest."Candice wanted to shake off her hand, but her body lacked the strength. She struggled to reg

Candice held her phone and quietly watched Alex. After all, having worked for so many years, she wasn't completely clueless. When she sensed something was amiss last night, she took advantage of a moment while calling Yana to casually turn on the recording function.Originally, she intended to gathe
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
