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

Chapter 0363

The journey back to the hotel took forty minutes. Candice watched the greenery outside recede, her forehead locked in a frown.

"Not feeling well?" Alex's deep and slightly hoarse voice rang out, and Candice snapped out of her thoughts.

"No."

"Really? Your complexion looks bad."

Candice pursed her lips and remained silent for a moment, but she could not help asking, "Do you really think it's a coincidence?"

She looked very serious, and Alex looked at her calmly. "What do you think it was?"

Candice opened her mouth but did not know what to say. If this was not a coincidence, then who was responsible? She didn’t have any enemies in Solaris.

Aether's focus had not been on Solaris before, so she’d had hardly any contact with this side of the city. Every time she came, it was simply for business.

She looked out the window again and sighed softly. "Maybe I've been too nervous lately, so I'm thinking too much."

Alex lowered his gaze and did not say anything.

After returning to the hotel, Candice charged her mobile phone and went to wash up. She no longer dwelled on the matter. At most, she would just be more careful in the future.

But what surprised Candice was that Barox came to find her.

"Is something wrong?" Candice had just finished washing and drying her hair. She was wearing gray cotton house clothes and a long windbreaker jacket.

Barox was holding a lunch box in his hand. His face was expressionless and his eyes were lifeless. "Yana said she wanted to have supper with you."

Candice looked at his other hand, and sure enough, it was Yana on video again.

Candice was silent for a while and asked Yana. "Why can't you just call me on video?"

Yana chuckled. "Isn't it livelier with more people?"

After she finished speaking, she took a sip of wine. Only then did Candice see that there were several bottles of wine on the table in front of her, one of which was already empty.

Obviously, Yana was not in a good mood.

Candice looked back at Barox. His expression was extremely dark. Candice pursed her lips and stepped aside. "Come in and talk."

However, before Barox stepped in, a deep voice came from behind. "Candice."

Barox turned around and saw Alex standing outside with a cold expression. He had changed into a white shirt and his eyes were like a deep pool filled with cold water. He looked at Barox, and then his eyes fell on Candice.

Candice looked at Alex in surprise. "What are you doing here?" Her tone was not very nice, even a little cold, and she frowned slightly, as if she was unaccustomed to Alex's appearance.

Alex's expression remained calm. "Have you forgotten that you came to see me that night?"

The statement was very ambiguous.

"I was only looking for you because of Redshade's tender documents," she retorted.

Alex's eyes were cold. "Did I say it wasn't because of this?" There was coldness and anger in his tone.

Candice's expression darkened and she wanted to speak.

However, Yana's impatient complaint suddenly came from Barox's cell phone. "Why do you guys have so many things to say? I just want to find someone to drink with me. Is it so difficult?"

Although Yana usually had an aloof personality, she was not an unreasonable person. And listening to her voice, Candice could tell that she was already drunk. She glanced at Yana worriedly and saw her lying on the table, scratching her hair irritably.

"You guys really talk a lot. If you want to say something, come in and say it with me. Don't isolate me!"

Barox reminded her in a deep voice. "Yana, you are drunk."

"What do you mean drunk? I'm so happy! That idiot Mason Cooper deserves it, he deserves it! And you!" Yana cursed, suddenly raised her head and pointed at Alex behind Barox, "You are also a fool! You are not a good person, and you dare to criticize me!"

Yana glared at Alex through the screen. "I went on a blind date with you just to deal with the family. Do you think anyone would like you? You have a coffin-like face, and just looking at it is bad luck! Why should he have the same virtue as Mason! Why should he have the right to do whatever he wants!" Yana's choked and crying voice came through the screen and echoed throughout the corridor.

Candice pinched her temples and whispered to Barox. "Go in first."

Barox had just turned around when Yana's scream came again. "Don't leave! I haven't scolded you enough!"

The veins on Candice's forehead were throbbing, and Yana kept asking Barox to turn the phone back.

Candice looked at Alex, she really had a headache. "Why don't you go up first, and I'll see you after I've settled Yana down."

When Alex heard Candice's words, he clicked his tongue. "Am I being scolded for no reason?"

"Yana is drunk." After she finished speaking, Candice felt a little guilty. Alex had indeed been scolded unjustly.

Alex snorted. There was a trace of ridicule in his eyes.

Just as he was about to speak, Barox appeared at the door again holding up his mobile phone. "She keeps crying when she can't see you and scolds you."

Everyone was speechless.

Candice finally had no choice but to let Alex into the room, while Yana pointed at Alex, and scolded Mason for half an hour. Only then did Candice find out that the Landor family had set up an engagement between Yana and Mason without telling her.

Candice didn’t know what to say, so she could only go along with her words. NôvelDrama.Org content.

"Drink! Why don't you drink?!" Yana was so drunk that she started to raise her wine glass to clink it with Candice. Then she found that she could not touch Candice's glass, so she simply urged

Candice to drink quickly.

Candice originally wanted to pretend to drink with the glass, thinking it was to coax Yana, but as soon as she picked up the wine glass, a hand stretched out from beside her and took the wine glass from her hand.

Alex moved the wine glass to the side with one hand, raised his eyes and looked at Barox. "She is going crazy with alcohol, can't you tell?"

Barox's expression was extremely forbidding. He said expressionlessly. "You don't need to remind me."

Candice also had a headache from being tortured by Yana. She rubbed her temples and whispered. "Barox, please persuade Yana to stop drinking."

Barox hummed in agreement, packed up his things and left. His back looked like he was holding back a fire of emotions.

The room suddenly became quiet, and Candice's tense nerves relaxed a lot. She exhaled a heavy breath and was about to rest. When she raised her eyes, she saw Alex still sitting where he was.

She looked at Alex, and even though her face was full of exhaustion, she still sat up straight and said with all her energy, "I don't quite understand Redshade's changes. I've marked them all. Let me show it to you.”

Alex's eyes swept across her face lightly, not missing any emotion on Candice's face.

He did not wait for Candice to get up. He said in a deep voice. "I just received the news that Redshade's change of conditions was proposed by Darius."

Candice was stunned.

"But these changes are very detrimental to Aether."
