Hanley hummed in acknowledgment and suddenly asked Candice, “Do you like Van Gogh?” 

Candice was taken aback. “I like his sunflowers.” 

“What about Monet?” 

While standing at the door, Hanley engaged in a random conversation with Candice, jumping from 

artists to philosophers to current celebrities. 

Candice gradually calmed down while she was in this seemingly irrelevant dialogue. She changed into fresh clothes and picked up her suitcase. Then, she opened the door and handed Hanley his 

coat back. 

Instead of taking the coat, Hanley took the suitcase from her. “Hold on to it for a bit.” 

They return to the villa. As they left, Candice saw that someone had painted words on her door in 

red. 

[Pay up!] 

Nadia held her hand and comforted her, “It’s probably a case of mistaken identity. It’s okay. Candice. Once you’re settled, you can sleep with me.” 

Initially, Candice also thought it must be a case of someone mistaking the place until later… 

Candice walked back to Hanley’s villa. It felt safer here with more people around. However, Nadia and others kept using her injury as an excuse and didn’t allow her to do any work. 

The group of people who came to bang on the door that night were quickly identified as a bunch 

of troublemakers. 

Nadia accompanied Candice to the police station to make a statement. Candice had become 

strangely familiar with the police station lately, as she had visited several times. 

The contract between Burning Star Studio and Aether Corporation was still in a deadlock with no clear resolution. 

Hanley and the others continued to go about their business as usual, while Candice stayed at the villa. Hanley had told her to rest and recover from her ordeal. 

Since that was the case, Candice had no choice and took care of some logistic matters while she 

rested.

Hanley’s villa was in building eight. 

Meanwhile, Jessica was in building six, holding a cup of tea in her hand. 

She smiled at Helen and said, “What a rare sight. It’s not easy to get you to come here. I’ve called you before, but you never came. I heard you were hospitalized recently?” 

Helen was obviously in a bad mood. “Good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news does.” 

Jessica raised an eyebrow and didn’t respond to her comment. Instead, she changed the topic. 

“Weren’t you looking for Alex’s future wife? Have you found anyone to your liking?” 

Jessica and Helen were considered close friends. However, Jessica followed her husband to 

another state for some time and only recently returned. 

“I found someone I like, but whether they like Alex is another story.” 

Helen was frustrated. She naturally had a stern appearance, but she looked even more 

unapproachable now with how serious she looked. 

Jessica was well aware of Helen’s temperament, so she smiled and said, “Are you angry with 

Daniel again? Remember what you told me back then? Marrying someone capable is better than 

marrying someone who’s just a freeloader.”
