My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 226

Chapter 0226 

“I was invited to Sonia’s birthday,” Yana said, frowning. She wasn’t familiar with Sieg and the rest. so when Sieg had invited her, she was a little perplexed. 

Candice frowned too. Although she did not mind the others, Sonia still irritated her. Just hearing 

her name was annoying. 

“You don’t have to go, right?” Nadia said. “It’s not like anyone made a rule that you have to.” 

Yana looked even more distressed. “That’s the problem. My dad said I have to go. He’s treating it like a blind date.” She sighed. “I heard that Alex seemed to have specially invited people from 

Solaris.” She clicked her tongue softly. “Sonia sure is dignified.” 

Anyone who asked within the social circle about Candice, Alex, and Sonia would know what was 

going on. 

Yana had long since sided with Candice. 

Candice didn’t think much of the matter. After all, Sonia’s birthday was not really that related to 

her. 

However, she never expected that things would change so suddenly. 

Candice had nothing scheduled on the weekend. She spent the whole day in the hospital with her 

grandfather. His situation was quite optimistic and Dr. Brooks said that he was determined and had a strong will to live. His recovery was much better than they had initially projected. 

In the afternoon, her grandfather was moved from the ICU to a normal ward and Candice was 

busy packing things. 

She had just finished helping her grandfather eat dinner when Yana suddenly called her. 

“Candy, you’re on leave today aren’t you?” 

“Why?” 

“My car broke down in the middle of the road. Can you come over and give me a ride?” Yana sounded depressed. “I’m near the city centre bypass. I can’t get a taxi and everyone else is busy.” 

Candice took a look at the time. It was already 7 pm. It was evening rush hour. Even if Yana wasn’t near the city centre bypass, it would still be hard to get a ride. 

Joe was already asleep, so she asked for Yana’s location and drove over. 

“When I came over, there were still quite a few cars outside. You’re most probably not going to be able to leave for some time, Candice.” Jackson said after a moment. “Come in. You can just hang out by the side. You don’t have to greet them.” 

Candice opened her mouth to refuse, but caught sight of Sonia following Alex. 

Alex was dressed formally in an extremely expensive black suit which was tailored to his figure 

perfectly. 

Under the bright lights, his air of nobility appeared even more prominent and every move he made was elegant. 

He seemed to look in their direction. Candice felt slightly stunned. Alex seemed to be looking directly at her. 

Sonia was talking to Alex, but as she noticed his gaze she looked over and saw Candice. 

Candice had already averted her eyes before Sonia could see her looking. 

Yana clicked her tongue. “Why are you avoiding them? You’re not the one who did something wrong! Don’t be afraid! Be bold and show them what you’re made of, you’re the heroine of your 

own story!” 

Jackson’s smile was gentle, but his eyes were serious as he looked at Candice. “Candy, you can be my partner. 

With both of them encouraging her and the sight of Alex and Sonia, Candice felt brave enough to 

follow their advice. She just wanted to avoid trouble. More likely than not, she would have to deal 

with Sonia sooner or later. 

But Yana wasn’t wrong. She hadn’t done anything wrong, so why should she hide?
