My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 19

Chapter 0019 

Candice’s straightforwardness left Jackson speechless

It’s okay if you can’t.Candice looked down. She realized she was out of line as well. I’m just simply asking. Don’t take it seriously.” 

Jackson stayed quiet for a moment and asked, Candice, can I ask why?” 

Nothing. It’s just that I’ve been single for too long and I should try dating,she 

said

She did not mention Alex at all, and Jackson did not ask

After dinner, Jackson sent Candice home

At the neighborhood’s entrance, they ran into Alex

Alex’s black Bentley was parked next to Jackson’s car. He glanced at Candice, who had just come out of the car, before looking at Jackson

Jackson nodded at him. Good evening.” 

Alex hummed and then with a meaningful look, he said, Ms. Renault, it seems like you are not just good at being a secretary.” 

Candice noticed his sneer in between the lines but she could not understand why

He already had Sonia, and because of the girl’s insecurity, he hinted at her to find a boyfriend regardless of doing it openly and secretly

Yet he sneered and teased her in front of Jackson

Candice looked down for a bit before she parted ways with Jackson. Thank you. I’ll return the jacket after I clean it.” 

Jackson shook his head with a smile. It’s okay. It’s just one of my old jackets.” 

Candice knew Jackson was being courteous

If what she proposed to him earlier was considered offensive, then she would have crossed Jackson’s boundary already

He had been taught to be a gentleman since he was young and it was why he sent Candice home

Candice was right about her menstrual cycle. It came early

The pain tormented her in the middle of the night, causing her to sweat profusely

1/3 

+15 BONOS 

Her face turned pale. She got up to take some painkillers and curled up on the couch

The pain knocked her out after a while and when she opened her eyes, already the next morning

it was 

Her body was aching all over, and her hands and feet were cold

Her phone was buzzing on the table as messages spammed her

She forgot when she had joined a random group chat with Alex’s friends and they were talking about going somewhere right now

Candice pondered for a moment. She texted the group, telling them she was 

feeling unwell and could not show up

She put her phone down and went to the kitchen to prepare some soup

The warm corn soup was soothing and it warmed her belly

Halfway through the soup, the doorbell rang

She put the spoon down to answer the door

Alex, in his casual outfit, was standing at the door bearing his usual cold air

He looked at her and frowned. You caught a cold?” 

No. It’s just my period,Candice said

Her period had always been on time and Alex used to remember her cycle

He would never come to her place when she was menstruating
