Candice had a change of heart, and this time, her expression wasn’t as bitter. 

Hanley pocketed his phone and raised an eyebrow, asking her, “Feeling up for a meal now?” 

She paused, then realized that he had declined earlier because he had sensed her bad mood. 

Admiring his ability to perceive emotions, she felt somewhat moved. 

In a subdued voice, Candice softly uttered, “Thank you.” 

Without turning his head, Hanley said, “Stay away from Jackson in the future.” 

She intended to ask why, but before she could speak, a clear voice interrupted, “Hanley!” 

Hanley halted, looked up, and saw Yana waving at them while holding a man’s arm not far away. 

Soon enough, Yana brought the man over. 

She scrutinized Candice and Hanley, gossiping, “What a coincidence, are you two here for dinner 

too?” 

Hanley nodded. 

Yana, quite self–assured, introduced the man by her side, “Let me introduce you to my darling 

here.” 

The last time Candice had seen Yana was during her blind date with Alex. 

However, Yana seemed unconcerned. Instead, she asked Candice, “I sent you a lot of messages the other day, asking you to come shopping. Why didn’t you reply?” 

Candice was startled. She had assumed Yana’s request to add her on WhatsApp was merely a casual formality. Lately, with a lot on her plate, she hadn’t been checking her messages, probably 

missing Yana’s attempt to contact her. 

Apologizing, she said, “I’m sorry, I’ve been really busy lately and haven’t checked my messages much. I probably missed yours.” 

Yana looked at her as if she were an oddity. “Are there still people who don’t check WhatsApp?” 

“My work WhatsApp and personal WhatsApp are kept separate,” Candice explained. 

Fortunately, Yana wasn’t bothered. She let go of her male companion’s hand and approached Candice with even more curiosity, “I heard from Sieg that you’re Alex’s Chief Secretary, right? |

Over the years, quite a few wealthy young ladies had tried to glean information about Alex’s preferences from Candice. 

Yana asked, “How did you endure staying by his deadpan face for so long without resigning?” 

Candice didn’t expect such a question, leaving her momentarily speechless. 

The man Yana had brought along interjected, “Honey, why are you so concerned about other men 

in front of me?” 

As soon as this man spoke, Candice surmised he was likely some sort of playboy from a club. 

She glanced at Yana with a hint of surprise, given Yana’s cute and obedient appearance, never 

expecting her to fancy this type. 

However, when the man spoke, Hanley, who was nearby, darkened his expression and spoke in a 

lowered voice, “If there’s something to discuss, then discuss it. Otherwise, leave.” 

It was the first time Candice had heard Hanley speak in such a harsh tone, clearly showing some 

irritation. 

Yana laughed. “What, are you afraid I’ll corrupt Candice?” 

After saying this, she winked at Candice. “Candice, want to come upstairs with me? My friends are 

having a gathering, it’s quite fun.” 

Candice already anticipated what Yana meant by “gathering“. She was about to refuse when she 

heard Hanley speak up first, “Yana, what nonsense are you up to?” 

Yana, always the rebellious one, didn’t say anything when Hanley kept silent. 

But the moment he spoke, Yana had already half–dragged Candice inside. “Candice, let me tell you, there’s every type inside. It’ll be a blast.” 

Candice did resist, but she dared not exert force seeing as Yana was wearing high heels. Although 

she wasn’t wearing extra high ones today, they were still slender and tall, about twelve 

centimeters. So, Candice let Yana pull her upstairs. 

Fortunately, once inside the elevator, Yana whispered to her, “I was only kidding. It’s just a regular bar upstairs. A friend of mine who returned from abroad is throwing a party there.” 

Yana hadn’t lied, W 

Candice followed her in, she heard singing, and the room was lively. 

Yana led Candice inside and arranged for her to sit on a sofa before dashing to grab the microphone.

Candice watched the chaotic scene in the private room without saying a word. 

Since she was here, she decided to go along with it, especially since Yana wasn’t malicious. 

Those who were friendly with Yana in these circles were mostly wealthy kids, lively and noisy. 

After Yana had finished singing and returned, seeing Candice sitting alone on the sofa, she gestured toward two young men nearby with a commanding air, “Come and talk to this lady.” 

Candice raised her hand to refuse, “No need.” 

However, the two young men had already approached. One of them familiarly took a glass while 

the other took a bottle and poured her a drink. 

At the same time, the lights in the private room suddenly brightened, followed by Sieg’s loud 

voice, “Who was singing just now? It sounded terrible.” 

Candice stiffened upon hearing his voice and slowly turned her gaze, indeed seeing Sieg lounging 

around. 

Soon after, he called out behind him, “Alex, hurry up. You said you weren’t feeling well tonight. Let 

me keep you company for a drink.” 

Candice’s body stiffened even more, struggling to react. 

Before she could fully process things, a cold male voice echoed, “Hmm.”
