My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 171

Chapter 0171 

The bar’s lighting wasn’t very bright, and Alex, sitting in the corner with his legs crossed, exuded an imposing aura. 

As soon as Sieg finished speaking, Alex stood up, coldly declared, “Not going,” and left straight away. 

After Alex had left, a phone rang on the table. It was Alex’s. 

Sieg glanced at it and saw an unfamiliar number without a contact name. 

Thinking it might be a scam call, he ignored it. 

Yet, the caller seemed persistent and rang again. 

Sieg clicked his tongue in annoyance and decided to end the call. He then invited others to join him for a drink. 

Candice listened to the busy tone on her phone, and then tossed it onto the coffee table. 

She had initially wanted to call Alex to inquire about the impact on Aether and how the company planned to handle the situation. 

The videos and comments in the local area were increasing rapidly, and the comments section had become unbearable. 

Amidst the chaos, discussions about Candice and Alex’s relationship had begun to surface. 

The discussions speculated that she had slept her way into her position. 

The discussions also mentioned that she relied solely on men and a.bed. 

Insults were hurled at her one after another, and she could only send a message to Alex, hoping he would see it and call her back. 

Candice thought that as long as Alex was willing to cooperate, they could handle the situation through public relations as quickly as possible. 

However, even as her phone was bombarded with messages from others until it eventually shut down, Alex still did not return her call. 

This continued into the next morning, and the situation not only failed to subside but grew even more intense. 

+15 BONOS 

Candice’s information had been thoroughly dug up. 

She spent the entire night sitting on the sofa, staring blankly out the window. 

She could not understand why things had turned out this way. 

She had not done anything wrong. 

She had paid for Peach’s medical expenses. 

When she was with Alex, she only liked him alone, 

In every aspect of work in Aether, she had focused on her work and completed it seriously and 

professionally. 

Even when dealing with Yvonne, she had never treated her cruelly. 

Yet somehow, she had become the villain. 

When her phone buzzed again, like a relentless reminder of her predicament. Candice looked at 

the screen dully. 

It was a call from her grandfather.
