Alex was looking at Henry as he spoke. Candice wondered how Henry would respond.Alex's voice was cold and indifferent. "Mr. Renault doesn't seem to be very responsible. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let his own daughter be hospitalized without visiting her."As his words fell, Henry was momentarily s
When Henry uttered the last sentence, his enunciation was very clear, as if he had some hidden meaning.Unable to help herself, Candice cast a glance at him, only to see Henry sighing and shaking his head in silence.John couldn't bear it anymore. He slapped the table and exclaimed loudly, "Candice,
He scrutinized Candice from head to toe, his face unusually serious.Under his gaze, she paused and looked up, asking, "Is there something on my face?"Hanley's gaze was distant, his attitude somewhat cold as he asked, "You went drinking?"Candice knew he had misunderstood, so she could only explain
The chatter on the other end of the phone continued, and Sonia, unable to bear it any longer, said, "What can I do? Do you think I wanted to break up with him? It's just that..."She didn't finish the second half of her sentence. When it came to the reasons for breaking up with Alex, she had only to
Candice didn't stay outside for long. Alex said that Darius's vigilance was very high, and they couldn’t find anything substantial each time they investigated.But even with just this little information, Candice could deduce a few things. Such as the subtle relationship between Darius and Henry.How
Henry seemed somewhat eager, striding over quickly and asking repeatedly, "I've sent you so many messages, why haven't you replied to any of them?"Candice stared at him and her expression cold. "Who allowed you to come here?"Henry was alone. He frowned, displeasure written across his face, but he
Henry looked at Barox in disbelief. He asked Candice, "Are you... Are you kidding me?"He clearly didn't believe it, even turning back to glance at the sullen-faced Alex.He had already told most people that his daughter was in love with the boss of Aether Corporation and they were about to get marr

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
