My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 259

Chapter 0259 

To be fair, Hanley looked quite handsome. Unlike the aristocratic and aloof demeanor of Alex, Hanley had fair skin, profound facial features, and a pair of peach–blossom eyes that naturally exuded a hint of emotion. However, his straight and high nose bridge gave him no trace of 

femininity. 

Candice glanced at him and quickly averted her gaze. She had no energy to dwell on such matters 

now. 

Her voice was light, “It’s not that I don’t trust you, but I feel that I shouldn’t trouble you with these matters anymore, Hanley. As a friend, you’ve already helped me a lot.” 

Hanley’s gaze paused. The summer evening carried a dry atmosphere, and he slightly pursed his lips before lowering his eyes to Candice. “I don’t want=” 

“Hanley,” She interrupted him and looked into the distance. “I have a flight tomorrow morning. I’ll go back to pack my things, and I’ll try to return by Monday.” 

She didn’t wait for his reaction and left. 

When Yana came out, she happened to see Candice’s slender figure. She patted Hanley’s shoulder carelessly, consoling him, “Don’t worry, give her some time. After all, such a big thing. just happened at home; she must be preoccupied.” 

When Hanley turned his eyes slightly, he gazed deeply at Yana. 

She was startled, hastily saying, “I didn’t hear anything just now. I was just passing by, just 

passing by.” 

She smiled and was about to turn around, but after walking a few steps, she stopped, sighed, and 

looked at him. 

After thinking for a moment, she said, “Although your courage is commendable, the timing is not right. Don’t be in such a hurry. You were able to hold back before, so why can’t you do the same now? Building a relationship is like slowly turning up the heat on a pot of water. The changes are subtle, gradual, and before you know it, you’re fully immersed in the warmth of love…” 

Hanley raised his eyebrows mockingly as he said, “Like you and Mason? The water hasn’t boiled 

yet, and the water was spilled?” 

Yana shut her mouth and directly returned to the villa. 

In truth, Candice didn’t have much to pack–just a suitcase with a few changes of clothes and some medication. 

She didn’t want to get involved in Peach’s affairs, but Greg had mentioned that they couldn’t reach Peach’s family. Moreover, she couldn’t let Peach take the blame for what Ivor and Yvonne had 

done. 

Silently packing her things, Candice went to the airport early the next morning. 

She and Alex didn’t speak much on the way until they arrived at Noxville Airport. 

As Candice followed Alex, she saw a couple of figures in the distance–Greg and Sonia. 

Sonia had claimed to be on a business trip, so Candice hadn’t expected her to come to Noxville. 

Sonia was surprised to see Candice, and the smile on her face faded slightly. She took the 

initiative to greet Alex, holding his arm as she stared straight at Candice. 

*Candice, how come you’re in Noxville? Aren’t your uncle and aunt still in Dorrington City?” She knew very well about the things Ivor and Yvonne had done, so her words carried a hint of irony. 

Candice didn’t bother spending any time with her. She looked at Greg and said, “Mr. Munoz, I’m sorry to trouble you with the hospital issues. I’d like to know the current situation.” 

“I’ve communicated with the doctor over there and arranged for Peach to be admitted for 

treatment. However, you’ll have to communicate with them yourself for the follow–up. After all, I’m 

not a family member.” 

Candice nodded with a somewhat serious expression. 

Sonia, holding Alex’s arm, seemed to be quite unhappy about Candice coming along with Alex. Asserting her authority, she said, “Alex, you didn’t tell me that Candice would come with you. If I 

had known, I would have booked a room for her in advance. It’s the weekend now, and hotels are 

in high demand. It might be difficult.” 

Before Alex could speak, Candice intervened. “I won’t be staying with you. I have other matters to 

attend to.” 

Alex lowered his gaze at her, and Candice caught his eye. She smiled and said, “Just message me when you need anything; I’m ready to cooperate at any time.” 

Sonia interjected. “What kind of riddle are you two playing? What cooperation?” 

Alex calmly responded, “Just handling some troubles.” 

Sonia nodded. She asked Candice. “Is it trouble from your family again?” 

+15 BONOS 

Whether intentional or not, the tone made people uncomfortable. However, Candice couldn’t deny It. It was indeed the trouble left behind by Ivor and Yvonne. 

Sonia seemed to realize her tone and smiled, saying, “Candice, don’t mind me. I didn’t mean that. I just feel a bit sorry for you. If I were you, I might have already collapsed. I heard about your grandfather’s passing. My condolences.” 

Candice really didn’t want to hear more from Sonia. She whispered, “I’m leaving.” 

Greg walked with her, saying he would accompany her to the hospital. 

Sonia, holding Alex, watched the two leaving in front. Seemingly indifferent, she sighed casually,” Candice is quite pitiful. But who wouldn’t be unlucky with such a family?” 

She clung to Alex’s arm, her voice soft. “Alex, rest assured, my family is very normal. They won’t 

cause you any trouble.” 

Alex looked down at her, expressionless. Lacking interest, he uttered a vague agreement, not indicating which part of her statement he was responding to. 

On the way to the hospital, Greg had already briefed Candice on the situation. After the incident with Ivor and Yvonne in Dorrington City, Peach had been kept at the police station.
