My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 203

Chapter 0203 

Candice made a beeline to the hospital, where Dr. Brooks and his colleagues were eagerly awaiting her arrival in the office. 

“You’re here,” Dr. Brooks exclaimed. “We need to discuss Mr. Sundance’s surgery with you in 

detail.” 

Candice braced herself for the worst, her expression stoic. “Go ahead, I’m ready to hear it.” 

“Here’s the situation. Our hospital runs a program focused on scientific research and education. The previously enrolled patient is no longer able to participate. After reviewing Mr. Sundance’s case, we believe his condition is a suitable match for our program. We would like to get your 

perspective on this.” 

“What exactly does this program entail?” Candice asked, puzzled. 

“The program involves filming the surgery for educational purposes,” Dr. Brooks explained. “Rest 

assured, we only record the operation area, ensuring the patient’s face and private areas are not 

captured. However, we require the consent of both the patient and their family.” 

The team of doctors fixed their eyes on Candice, anticipating her decision. 

She turned the information over in her mind slowly. “So this means my grandpa is eligible for 

the surgery?” 

Dr. Brooks nodded, adding. “The final decision hinges on the consent of the patient and their 

family. It’s common for people to be hesitant about filming the surgery. Many consider it bad luck. 

The previous patient backed out of the program for that very reason.” 

A glint of hope sparked in Candice’s eyes, but she quickly subdued it. “Could I have a word with 

the lead surgeon? Are there any additional requirements for the surgery?” 

“The lead surgeon is Dr. Sui. He’s here primarily for this program. The requirements for the patient 

remain unchanged. The process is identical to standard surgery, apart from the filming aspect.” 

After exiting the office, Candice headed straight for the restroom. 

She struggled to process the turn of events. Despite her numerous appeals to Chad, he had never 

consented to the operation on her grandfather, but now he had. 

Moreover, the fact that the surgery was recorded implied that the chief surgeon would exercise extra caution and precision in every step, which would increase the likelihood of a successful 

outcome. 

Candice’s hand stilled under the running water, deep in thought. 

+15 BONOS 

Sieg returned to his seat from the dance floor of Club Eden with a model in his arms. 

He cast an annoyed glance at a group engrossed in a dice game and questioned, “Has anyone contacted Lex? What’s taking him so long?” 

One of them answered nonchalantly. “He might be stuck in traffic.” 

Sieg’s brow twitched with the response. 

Another person chimed in. “Lex has been swamped lately, hasn’t he? I heard from my dad that Candice resigned. Her departure must be hitting his company hard.” 

Sieg dismissed the concern with a scoff, “Is Aether going to fall apart without her?” 

“Not necessarily, but Lex might not be in the best spirits these days,” the person replied. 

Unfazed, Sieg planted a kiss on the model’s cheek and was about to phone Alex when he spotted 

him across the club. 

Alex’s expression was cold. He looked calm and collected, a stark contrast to the chaotic 

backdrop of the club. 

Sensing Alex’s sour mood before he even reached them, Sieg released the model from his 

embrace. He casually whistled and asked, “What’s got you down?” 

Alex glanced at him, his voice cool and collected, “Just handling some matters.” 

“Is it about the business?” 

Alex stayed silent. 

Sieg gave a light tut, probing further, “What’s going on?” 

Alex didn’t respond, instead signaling for a waiter to bring over a bottle of wine. 

As the wine was served, his phone rang with an incoming call. 

Sieg had moved to the seat next to Alex, and glanced at the caller ID. “You’re in close contact with Greg?” 

With an unreadable expression, Alex took the call. Whatever Greg said made Alex’s brows furrow, 

then he relaxed almost instantly. 

He lightly tapped the wine glass, speaking in a subdued tone. “Monitor the situation. Inform me 

when they arrive in Dorrington.” 

“Is Greg coming to Dorrington?” Sieg asked as soon as the call ended. 

“No,” Alex answered. 

“I thought you were tight with Greg’s family. Didn’t you recently visit his dad in Noxville? 

“He hasn’t retired yet,” was all Alex said. 

Sieg caught on immediately. He clinked his glass against Alex’s and commented, “Businessmen 

like you really go the extra mile for profit, huh?” 

Alex sipped his wine, not disputing Sieg’s observation. He shifted the topic and asked. “Have you heard about the newly formed Webrews Group?” 

“Webrews Group? Aren’t they collaborating with Dream Search on an exhibition?” Sieg asked. “I’ve said before, they seem to scoop up whatever your company discards. Any staff that Aether Corporation lets go, Webrews Group is quick to hire. Like that guy, Francis Moreno – he’s now a manager there.”
