My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s)

Chapter 0327

Candice raised her eyes to look at him. After a while, she finally spoke. "I am facing difficulties in pursuing legal action against Sonia. Someone is obstructing the process."

Hanley was not surprised. "Is it Alex?"

Candice nodded.

"Aether's situation isn't looking good either now,” Hanley said. “I heard that their company has been affected quite badly and now the Board of Directors will have some strong opinions about him." As he continued, Hanley’s tone grew slightly scornful. "However, I never thought that even in such a situation, he would still choose to protect Sonia. That's a little surprising."

Candice let out a heavy sigh. She felt extremely frustrated. "Then what else can I do now?"

Hanley fell silent for a moment. "I have a senior who is quite a good lawyer. Let me contact him for you."

Hanley worked fast and the same night he had already set up an appointment to meet his senior.

When they went over, he was already waiting for them. Hanley went straight to the point. "The matter is exactly like how I told you over the phone. What methods do you think are there to solve the problem?"

Willard Bowman swept a glance at Candice, his gaze lingering meaningfully between the two of them for a moment before he spoke. "Actually, as long as the evidence is sufficiently solid, there shouldn't be any problem submitting it. But you also know some things, and I can’t say much about them.

"I think there are currently two options. We can try and push for a review to open the case and hope it will be enough, but I can already tell the chances of succeeding is low. Or, you can use public opinion. Nowadays, society is easily swayed by it."

"Public opinion isn't suitable,” Hanley said. “The online environment is chaotic."

"Then you can be a bit more forceful and directly confront the person obstructing you,” William said. “If you can get a recording of them intentionally obstructing, you can even charge them with obstruction of justice."

This statement stirred something in Candice. She and Hanley exchanged a glance, and Hanley's frowned a little. In their brief eye contact, they almost instantly understood each other's intentions.

"Can you do it?" Hanley asked in a deep voice.

Candice hesitated for a moment. "This is the truth. I am not falsely accusing him."

She knew what Hanley had just wanted to ask. After all, she had been involved with Alex for so many years. He thought she might have reservations. However, since Alex had not let her have a smooth path, why should she have any reservations about making things difficult for him? Since he was so protective of Sonia, she would deliberately go against his wishes.

William watched from the side and could not help but clear his throat as a reminder. "I'm telling you this because you're like a junior to me. Although it's a bit unethical, legal rights protection is a right we all have. Let me be clear, you didn’t get the idea from me..."

William's words were taken seriously by Candice.

Candice went to Aether on Monday morning. Hanley was supposed to accompany her, but he suddenly received a call from the hospital and rushed to take care of his sister.

Candice went straight to the top floor. She hadn’t expected the President's Office to be bustling with activity. Helen had brought along Nina and they were both there. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Candice stopped for a moment. She looked at Helen and her originally expressionless face changed with indefinable emotions. However, before she got the chance to think of whether to return later, Helen spotted her.

Her shrill voice rang, piercing Candice's eardrums, making her frown.

"Seems like it was quite appropriate for me to come today. I actually managed to catch a wild animal who just refuses to give up. Don’t you agree, Candice?"
