Elio replied, "I don't want to wait anymore. Let me handle this." "No, no, I'll take care of it," Candice insisted. Three days later, just as Candice mustered the courage to come clean with her family, she noticed blood. Terrified, she rushed to the hospital, fearing a miscarriage. However, it turned out to be her period. Sitting before the doctor, Candice listened as she explained that sometimes pregnancy tests could be inaccurate and the only way to be sure was through a medical examination. It turned out to be a false alarm.While not being pregnant should have brought relief, Candice felt an inexplicable sense of sadness. What saddened her most was that her dream of marrying Elio was now shattered. There was no chance of a shotgun wedding. She didn't know how to explain this to Elio. Whenever Elio texted her, she chose to avoid him. A week passed quickly. In the design department, Sean personally went to find Candice, addressing her respectfully, "Ms. Morrison, Mr

"Why are you in my room?" Nervously, Candice urged him to leave. "You need to go. If my family finds out you sneaked in here, we'll be in trouble." Elio paid no heed to her warnings. Even if faced with imminent danger, he would get his closure. "I gave you time, Candice. You were supposed to talk to your family about our marriage." Elio's disappointment ran deep, his eyes reflecting a melancholic hue. "I just spoke to your grandparents, and it was clear you hadn't mentioned anything." "I…" Candice faltered. Elio lowered his head, closing the distance between them, his warm breath brushing against her skin, leaving her unsettled. His magnetic voice echoed, "Do you not wish to marry me?" Candice knew that deceiving Elio into marriage was wrong. It would only lead to more lies, leaving her feeling empty. "I'm sorry, Elio. I'm not pregnant." Elio felt as if a dagger had pierced his chest, making each breath a struggle. Candice lowered her gaze. "I'm sorry. It wasn't intention

Candice dashed downstairs, positioning herself at the corner of the staircase, and called out to Elio's departing form, "Elio, let's get married!" Her voice rang out clearly through the house. The once lively living room fell silent in an instant as if struck by a bombshell. All eyes turned to Candice; shocked expressions etched on everyone's faces. The entire household stood frozen in stunned silence. Elio's body froze in place, trembling. Initially, he thought he misheard, but the collective astonishment confirmed the reality of Candice's words. His heart raced uncontrollably. Turning to face Candice, Elio found her smiling sweetly, her eyes sparkling with joy, radiating a carefree demeanor as if she were a carefree child who could ignore everything as long as Elio liked her and wanted to marry her. She could bravely approach him. Candice repeated, "Elio, let's get married." Tears welled up in Elio's eyes. He mustered a light smile and nodded in agreement, declaring, "

Jasper had no choice but to accept this reality. Elio stepped into the car, and the vehicle slowly began its departure from Morrison Residence.In the back seat, Elio quietly observed the passing scenery outside the window, his lips betraying a subtle smile that he couldn't suppress. Equally delighted, Sean chimed in, "Congratulations, Mr. Hoffis." Breaking his silence with an unusual response, Elio replied, "Thank you." He appeared genuinely in a good mood. However, before allowing Elio to revel too much in it, Sean posed a sobering question, "Mr. Hoffis, how do you plan to gain approval from Mrs. Hoffis?" Elio's expression instantly darkened. Inside the car, silence reigned. Meanwhile, in the living room of Morrison Residence, everyone received the news and hurried back home.Daniel and Sienna were left astounded when they learned that Candice had proposed to Elio in front of the family. Seated among her family, Candice found herself bombarded with questions from al
The Wrong Woman Chapter 918
Once a girl reached adulthood, it was time for her to tie the knot. As Candice reveled in her happiness, she remained unaware of her family's underlying concerns regarding her forthcoming marriage. Marrying Elio was far from a simple endeavor; it required the approval of his parents. The next day, Elio assembled extravagant engagement gifts himself, emphasizing the significance. In the living room, Sean diligently inspected the gifts until the door swung open unexpectedly. Michaela, accompanied by Josie, stepped inside. "Good day, Mrs. Hoffis, Ms. Hudson," Sean greeted them respectfully. Michaela's warm smile radiated as she asked, "Are these the engagement gifts for Josie?" Sean wiped his forehead, stealing a glance toward the bedroom, silently hoping for Elio's timely arrival. Approaching with an authoritative air, Michaela addressed Sean, "I'm asking you a question." Nervously, Sean responded, "They're for Ms. Morrison." Josie's expression dimmed slightly. With a

Elio loaded the car with all the engagement gifts and drove away from the villa. Josie supported Michaela as they walked to the entrance, her expression troubled as she watched the car disappear into the distance. Michaela remained silent while Josie's eyes blazed with barely contained anger. She spoke softly, "Mrs. Hoffis, although Candice is a spoiled little princess and may not be suitable for Leo, if he loves her, let him marry her. Please don't worry about my feelings. I'm fine with it." Josie's approach was strategic, hoping to elicit sympathy from Michaela and gain more support. Unexpectedly, Michaela sighed lightly and said, "It's Elio who isn't suitable for that young lady from the Morrison family." Stunned, Josie stared at Michaela in disbelief. Michaela continued in a soft voice, "That young lady is like a delicate flower raised in a greenhouse, pure as a blank sheet of paper. She deserves someone as innocent as her, not my son." Her implication was clear. El

After listening to Florence, Sienna glanced at Elio. Elio nervously swallowed, his mind racing with worry that Sienna might reject his proposal to Candice. His hands, damp with sweat, fidgeted against his pants, a clear sign of his anxiety. Sienna lifted the envelope slightly, saying, "Elio, actually…" Before Sienna could finish her sentence, Elio bowed his head. He was trembling with nerves. "Aunt Sienna, I will cherish Candice even more than you do. Please, allow me to marry her."Sienna was taken aback. Daniel chuckled softly, murmuring, "Look at what you've done to poor Elio."Sienna quickly explained, "I just wanted to say that all these formalities aren't necessary. Our family is very easygoing; we won't make things difficult for you two young people."Elio breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Aunt Sienna.""Please, have a seat," Sienna gestured, taking her own seat and motioning for him to do the same.Elio sat down, picked up his cup, and took a sip, looking visib

The Morrisons had always doted on Candice.Upon her request, they responded with warm smiles, saying, "Certainly, you two take care of it.""Thank you, Grandpa Gary and Grandma Florence," Elio expressed with sincerity, "and to Uncle Daniel and Aunt Sienna, thank you as well."Elio's eyes gleamed with gratitude, a gentle curve gracing his lips.Observing his joy, Candice couldn't help but feel a warmth blossom inside her.Elio maintained his hold on her hand, discreetly caressing it when no one was looking.Even after dinner at Morrison Residence, Elio remained in good spirits. He joined the elders for a few extra drinks, relishing their animated discussions about life.Meanwhile, Candice retreated to her room to freshen up and prepare for bed."Leo, you've had a few too many drinks. It's not safe for you to drive. Why don't you stay the night?" Gary's speech was slurred from the alcohol's influence.Just as Elio was considering the offer, Florence stepped in, placing her hand

I'm just trying to figure out how to balance my future family and career."Jasper smiled knowingly, gently patting her head before pulling her into an embrace.

"If it's a gift, why not accept it?" Mila whispered.Gregory quickly took the check, looking unsure of his next move.Once his money was accepted, Oakley assumed the issue was settled.

Feeling uneasy, Gregory and Carol exchanged anxious glances."Nate, we can't go easy on them," Mila whispered.Nathan smiled knowingly.

Yulia was renowned for her boldness and strong-willed nature. Aware of Oakley's wealth, influence, and dual reputation in legal and illicit circles, she feared no one and held a contemptuous attitude toward others, including senior military figures."You need to apologize to Ms. Imogen immediately," Oakley whispered urgently.Pointing at Imogen, Yulia muttered irritably, "Her? Oh, please! If anyone owes an apology, it's her to me."Oakley wiped his forehead nervously, trembling with anxiety. Everyone's expressions around them darkened visibly. Jasper suppressed his anger; his hands clenched into fists.Before he could speak, Yulia grumbled, "Jay, you blocked me before understanding everything, and then you terminated our contract. That's just too much."Mila couldn't shake her worry for Jasper. If he couldn't manage his relationship with Yulia appropriately, it could severely impact his marriage. Concerned that he might not handle it well, Mila intervened. "Ms. Gibson, please resp

Carol no longer believed the portrayal of wealthy women on television.Jasper took Imogen's hand, and they sat down on the couch together, feeling anxious. It was their parents' first meeting, and the hospital setting added to the tension. If things went wrong and their relationship soured, their future would look bleak.Imogen was particularly anxious. Her palms were growing clammy. Jasper pulled out a tissue and gently wiped her palms before reassuringly saying, "There's no need to be nervous.

Mila approached them with a bouquet, smiling. "Yes, we're in the right place. We've come to visit you, our in-laws."The term "in-laws" caught Gregory off guard as he lay in the bed. Despite his injuries, he quickly propped himself up, struggling to sit upright. Carol, equally surprised, cautiously accepted the gift from Nathan's outstretched hands.Jasper and Imogen took the next elevator, so they hadn't reached the ward yet.Nathan quickly set his things down and hurried over, gently placing a reassuring hand on Gregory's shoulder.

In the hospital ward, Gregory had been asleep for over an hour when the nurse woke him to change his medication.After the change, Carol peeled an orange for him to eat. They shared the segments, chatting idly."Imogen really picked a good husband. Even these oranges he bought are unusually sweet," Carol said, marveling at the oranges. Gregory glanced at the orange and said, "They must be expensive.""Yes, they're sold by the piece in big supermarkets. Also, they're more expensive than beef and lamb," Carol said before eating another sweet segment.Gregory pondered for a moment. Then he curiously asked, "Someone ruined our house's floor. Do you think Jasper would help us repair it?"Carol shot him a look and replied, "Listen, don't burden Imogen with this. Don't even bring it up.""Why would it burden Imogen? With Jasper's wealth, this is nothing.""Enough," Carol snapped. "That's his business. No matter how poor we are, we shouldn't ask for what isn't ours." "You're too stu
