My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 293

Chapter 0293 

It was as if the reply was instant the moment she sent out her message. A glint flashed in Sonia’s 

eyes. 

Xavier stood by the side watching her, his expression worried. “Are you all right?” 

Sonia suddenly regained her senses. She bit the corner of her lip and in a weak tone, said, “I’m 

fine.” 

Xavier touched her forehead, his concern self–evident. “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have let you 

come here.” 

Sonia flashed a weak smile. She did not avoid Xavier’s hand on her forehead either. Her innocent 

eyes pooled with tears as she pretended to be strong. 

Xavier’s brows moved, and he really felt a little soft–hearted. 

After Candice and Alex went their separate ways, she returned to the villa. 

She had originally wanted to return to Northdale, but the set of jewelry the old man had given her was too precious. She was worried that leaving it there would cause trouble, so she brought it

As she entered, she received a call from Alex’s grandfather. 

“Candice, has Alex taken you home?” he asked, concerned. 

“I’m home.” Candice paused for a moment. “Is anything the matter?”

The old man gave a bitter laugh. “Alex. That lad is a dumbass. I know you’ve been wronged. Don’t worry, I will teach him a lesson.” 

Candice did not respond. 

His words appeared to be blaming Alex, but in reality, the old man was defending him. “Candy, you’ve always been the only granddaughter–in–law of the Elysian family. You and Alex- 

Candice interrupted him before he could finish. Her tone was calm, without any unnecessary emotions, “Grandpa, If you want to see me, I can come and see you anytime. But Alex already has. a girlfriend, so it’s better not to say those things again.” 

The old man sneered.” What do you mean girlfriend? I can’t stand that little brat!” 

Candice said, “She’s quite good, and Alex likes her a lot.” This was a fact that anyone could see
