The Wrong Woman Chapter 876
Candice requested a day off, followed by the weekend ahead.She spent three consecutive days holed up in her room. She didn't want to leave her room unless it was meal times.She felt gloomy. She spent her time sleeping, listening to music, or simply staring blankly at the scenery outside the balcony.Suddenly, her phone rang.Lethargically, Candice reached for her phone and glanced at it. It was her colleague, Vanessa."Hello, Vanessa," Candice answered on speakerphone. She lay motionless on the bed, her voice lazy and weak.Vanessa nervously said, "Candice, let's watch a movie."Candice wasn't interested, so she rejected easily. "No, I have to work tomorrow.""It ends at 9:00 pm. Come on, I'll introduce you to a handsome guy," Vanessa insisted.Candice sighed in resignation. She had heard Vanessa mention her brother too many times, so she asked, "Your brother again?""Yeah, don't you always say you want to date? You're 22 years old and still haven't had a boyfriend. Why not

Candice panicked and quickly explained, "No, he's my friend's brother. We just met."Wendell nodded in greeting, "Hello."Josie smiled but didn't continue the conversation. Instead, she asked, "Which showtime are you here for?""7:00 pm, Theater 2," Wendell replied.Josie remarked, "That's unfortunate. We're here for the 6:45 pm show in Theater 6."Candice forced a smile. She politely smiled, "Yes, that's unfortunate."Just then, Vanessa walked over with popcorn and drinks. She handed some to Wendell while glancing at Josie.Seeing that they were indeed a group of three, Josie pretended to be in a hurry. She said, "I can't chat anymore. Leo will worry if I'm gone too long. I gotta go."With that, Josie turned and left.Were Elio and Josie watching a movie together?Candice stood there in a daze. She felt stifled and miserable.As all her good mood vanished, she was saddened by the revelation. She felt both upset and irrational.Wasn't it normal for an engaged couple to watc

Sadie arranged for a task that required Vanessa to leave the place. 15 minutes later, Vanessa hurriedly walked out of the movie theater. "What the fuck? Why are they making me rush a PowerPoint on a weekend?" she grumbled. "They need it tomorrow but didn't say anything earlier. What time is it now? Jeez…"Vanessa cursed as she walked. She quickly passed by Josie and left the theater in a rush.Mission accomplished. Now, Josie just needed to wait for the results.…Two hours later, Candice walked out of the theater alongside Wendell. They took the elevator down and headed outside."I'll take you home," Wendell offered politely.Candice declined his offer with a smile, "It's okay. I'll just take a cab.""It's not safe to take a cab by yourself.""Really, it's fine."Just as Candice finished speaking, she suddenly stopped in the middle of the plaza. Her heart skipped a beat as she nervously looked at the car in front of her.Elio sat in the driver's seat of a luxury car. He ro

"Miss, we're here," the driver softly called out after stopping the car.Candice snapped out of her reverie. She quickly wiped away her tears and took out cash to pay."Thank you," she said before getting out.As the door closed, the cab slowly drove away.Candice looked up at the brightly lit villa in front of her. She sighed heavily before walking dejectedly toward it.Just as she approached the large iron gate, a figure suddenly rushed up from behind her. She was shocked when her arm was grabbed. Before she could react, she was yanked to the side of the wall.Candice screamed in shock. Before she could comprehend what was happening, someone kissed her. At that moment, she was dumbfounded. She stared wide-eyed in terror at the face so close to hers.Through the blurry vision, she saw Elio. Finally regaining her senses, she began to struggle.However, the more she struggled, the harder he pressed against her. He pinned her wrists above her head with his solid chest pressed tig

Candice instantly panicked, wondering what Elio meant by his words. She was stunned, staring at him blankly. Although tears still welled up in her eyes, she was dumbfounded.Seeing her dazed expression, innocent and clueless, Elio asked angrily, "Did you hear me clearly?"Candice was so shocked that she gulped. She quickly nodded.Elio thought she understood until Candice blurted out, "I heard you. I don't need you to take responsibility. I won't cling to you."Elio was furious. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to ease the pain deep in his heart. After a moment, he said coldly, "No, I want you to take responsibility."Candice froze. She bewilderedly asked, "I… need to take responsibility for you?"Elio replied with a magnetic voice, "Yes."Candice was stunned as her mind was a mess.He had been the one to initiate making love with her, and even though she hadn't refused, she was still the passive party. The experience had been painful, with no pleasure for her.She

Candice was shocked. She couldn't grasp what Elio meant by his words. Was it possible that his desire for beauty and pleasure could drive him to such reckless extremes, even at the risk of his own life?Elio declared his desire for her. Wasn't he afraid that her family would kill him for trying to make her his mistress? Didn't he have any moral boundaries?Candice was livid. "Let go of me," she demanded.Elio loosened his grip on her wrist and took a step back.Candice massaged her aching hand. "Elio, just give up. Marry Josie and live a good life with her. Be good to her, and stop chasing after me."With those words, Candice stormed off. She angrily unlocked and pushed through a large iron gate. As she walked, she cursed inwardly at Elio.He was despicable. If he weren't already committed to someone else, she would've considered being with him, even as his secret lover.But Josie had been by his side for many years, and their wedding was just a month away. Yet, here Elio was,

Michaela suppressed her anger and stressed each word carefully. "Wanda, you've been away working in the frontier for so long that you might not realize how disturbing Elio's behavior is. He's Candice's uncle. They're related! Yet he's had an unhealthy fixation on Candice since her childhood."He collected her hair ties, cups, stuffed toys, and other random items. He hoarded her discarded pencil cases and even a used pen. Whenever he visited Morrison Residence, he secretly took things that belonged to Candice and stashed them away."What kind of man obsessively writes diary entries about a young woman? He stole her things, spied on her, stalked her, and filled his entire sketchbook with drawings of her. He…"I was desperate and had to pressure him into finding a girlfriend. But then he and Josie deceived me. I had no option but to make him move abroad. I truly—"Mila cut her off, her voice sharp with fury. "Mom, why did you read Elio's diary?""I did it for his own good," Michaela

There was a persistent knock on the door. Unwilling to respond, Elio remained motionless. His gaze was desolate and distant. It was as if he was lost in another world. It wasn't until the knocking ceased and Mila's voice came to his ears that he snapped back to reality."Elio, it's me, Wanda."Although Mila was rarely home, she held a warm and kind image in Elio's heart. He found those affections he lacked from Michaela in Mila. Shaken from his thoughts, Elio got to his feet and turned the portrait around before heading to the door.As the door was opened, Mila noticed his somber expression and lifeless gaze. She felt a pang of sympathy."Wanda, do you need something?" Elio asked.Mila's eyes crinkled into a smile as she asked softly, "May I come in and sit for a while?"Elio hesitated briefly, then opened the door wider. "Come in."Mila stepped into the spacious room. Despite the brightness of the lights, the atmosphere felt dull and cold. There was a large bed, a row of
