Chapter 116

Yvonne was obviously stunned. After a moment of silence, she said, “I don’t.”

“You don’t?” Candice repeated it once more, but she couldn’t even feel her emotion anymore. She

simply asked Yvonne, “When you asked him, have you ever thought that he might be unwell?”

Yvonne mumbled, “He never told me he wasn’t healthy.”

“He’s your dad!” Candice suddenly increased her volume. With a trembling voice, she yelled. “Yvonne!

Where’s your conscience? When has he ever denied you money when you asked him for it? When has

he not missed you, his daughter?

“Where is your conscience?!”

“Candy, it’s… It’s my fault.” Yvonne whispered, as if she really knew she did wrong as she tried to calm

her.

“I really didn’t know that he was so unwell. I didn’t try to make him angry. I was just complaining to him.”

Candice didn’t even have to ask what she was complaining about.

It had to be because she refused to help Ivor and give her even a single cent more.

When Yvonne heard nothing from Candice, she became nervous. “Candy, I really know that it’s my

fault now. I won’t ask him for money ever again.

After finishing that, she guaranteed it again. “I don’t want your money either. I have something else

going on. I’ll talk to you later.”

Yvonne quickly hung up. Candice only reacted to what happened afterward. What did Yvonne mean in

the end?

But she thought it was just Yvonne trying to act tough again.

She was exhausted, both physically and mentally. After getting something to eat in the kitchen, she

went back to her room to rest.

In the afternoon, her phone rang and it woke her up..

It was Kayla.

She asked, “Candice, the boss said that you’re already back in Dorrington City. Since you haven’t

come to work yet, Marie asked me to call you.”

Only now did Candice remember that she forgot to tell Kayla about it.

She massaged her head and said, “I have an emergency. I’m sorry. I’ll go over in the afternoon.”

“Huh?” Kayla noted it but she still reminded Candice, “Then you must come over soon. Resplendence

Group’s chairman is coming over today, and everyone’s standing by at their station.”

The chairman of the Resplendence Group was also Alex’s father, Daniel.

Aether Corporation used to be just a small subsidiary of the Resplendence Group. Afterward, it was

given to

+15 BONOS

Kayla then said. “Candice, you’re the one that has always handled the chairman. We can’t do it.”

Candice sat with her back on the bedhead. Her head was still thumping. She asked. “Alex isn’t back

yet. Why

did the chairman appear so suddenly?”

Kayle said, “The boss took the moming flight today. He’s already at the company.”

Candice was quite surprised. She didn’t expect Alex to have already come back to Dorrington City.

She had no choice but to clean up and then head to the office.

When she reached Aether, it was almost time for work already. When Candice reached the office. she

saw Alex standing there with a cold expression on his face, furious.

There was a report in his hand, and he dumped it on Kayla’s desk, his voice cold and monotonous.

“You don’t even know how to make a basic spreadsheet? Why are you still in Aether?”

Kayla didn’t dare to respond, her head hung low.

However, it was obvious that Alex was in a bad mood. With a growl, he said, “Look at me!”

It was very rare to see him so angry. His facial expression was so dark that it scared her.

Kayla was on the verge of tearing up. She raised her head and saw Candice coming in. As if seeing

her savior. she nervously yelled out, “Candice.”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
