My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 236

Chapter 0236 

When Yana arrived, Candice’s shoulder was feeling a bit better. The pain was still there, but she 

could at least move slightly. 

Yana was unaware of recent events. “What happened to you?” she asked, surprised. 

Candice explained as she helped Candice change her clothes, and Candice was grateful that she didn’t press for more details. 

Yana’s eyes flared in fury as she listened. “Has your mother lost her mind? What sane person 

would do such a thing?” 

Yvonne’s 

or was clearly irrational in anyone’s eyes. 

Candice remained silent and offered no response. 

Yana was about to say more when Candice’s phone rang. She took it up and handed it to Candice. 

noticing that it was a call from the Dorrington Police Station. 

“Ms. Renault, we need you at the station immediately.” 

The situation with Ivor’s injury and the family conflict posed a complex challenge for the police. 

Yana decided to accompany Candice to the station. “I’m curious to know what’s going through 

your mother’s mind.” 

The police station wasn’t far from Silverstone Hospital. 

As Yana parked, a luxurious Maybach smoothly pulled up next to them. Astonished, Yana cursed 

under her breath. Candice recognized the car as Alex’s without a second thought.. 

As predicted, Alex emerged from the vehicle. His expression was unreadable. 

Candice chose to stay inside her car, preferring to wait until Alex had left before she stepped out. 

However, her plans were interrupted as Alex knocked on her car window and gave her a piercing 

look. 

Candice hesitated before responding. The tinted car window concealed her from outside view, but 

she felt as if Alex’s gaze pierced through and that he knew her exact position. 

“Why the delay? Do you need me to roll out a red carpet for you to get out?” Alex’s deep, 

somewhat muffled voice came through the glass.

Reluctantly, Candice pressed her lips together and slowly opened the door. 

It seemed the police had called Alex in too. 

As Candice stepped out, Alex had already started to walk to the station. 

Although Yana had dined with Alex before, she remained cautious around him. She knew she couldn’t leave Candice by herself… 

Moving gingerly to avoid aggravating her injury, Candice took a painstaking three minutes to 

cover the short distance. 

Approaching Alex, they overheard him grumbling. “Quite the princess, aren’t we?” 

Barely containing her frustration, Yana snapped back, “She’s injured, you know? And it’s not like anyone’s stopping you from going ahead.” 

Stunned, he ignored Yana and gave Candice a chilly look. “Do you even know why I’m here?” 

His jaw was clenched, and he looked irritated. “Every minute that passes, my company loses 

millions. Are your issues worth this much money?” 

Candice realized the situation didn’t directly concern Alex, but he had still lent his support. 

She bowed her head and apologized calmly, “I apologize for taking up your time.” 

Yvonne waited inside the police station. Her eyes were red from crying, and she was still wiping 

away tears. Peach stood silently next to her. 

She heard footsteps, and glanced up. Her eyes landed first on Candice, then shifted swiftly to Alex. She stared, apparently deep in thought, as if trying to make sense of something. 

The police intended to handle the matter as a simple domestic dispute, which would simplify things and hopefully avoid complications. With everyone gathered, the police prepared to mediate. 

Candice firmly stated, “I apologize, but I need to clarify my stance. This is more than simply a family dispute for me. It’s an intentional act of violence and assault.” 

“What are you talking about?” Yvonne demanded before the police officer could respond. She slapped the table, her eyes wide with disbelief. “How could you say such a thing? True, he hit you, but now he’s incapacitated because of you!” 

Candice maintained her composure and responded, “He reaps what he sows.” 

“I am your mother, Candice!”

Candice replied steadily. “The moment you accepted that five hundred thousand, I told you we were done.” She continued, her voice even, “Therefore, in my view, this is a deliberate act of aggression.” She gazed at Yvonne, who had aged so much that she was almost unrecognizable. 

She added, “I have the medical report with me. Ivor intended to kill me.” 

Confusion flickered in Yvonne’s eyes, yet she retorted, “But he didn’t actually kill you, did he?” However, she rapidly lost confidence at the end of her reply. 

Yana was tired of listening from the sidelines. She chided, “Mrs. Dawson, isn’t that a ludicrous 

thing to say? What if Candice had been killed? It seems like you can’t empathize with the pain 

since you’re not the one suffering.” 

Alex, who had been quiet, finally spoke in a deep voice. “The CCTV evidence is there. Shouldn’t we 

follow the standard procedure?” 

Candice turned toward him. 

Alex directed his words to the police officer. “You identified me as a witness. My account matches 

the surveillance. Plus, before the police arrived, I witnessed the perpetrator continue to verbally 

harass the victim with abusive language.” 

The officers exchanged troubled looks, their brows furrowed in concern. 

At first, they thought it was just a typical family disagreement triggered by heightened emotions
