My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 32

Chapter 0032 

Candice, you’re responsible for this document, aren’t you?” 

Candice recognized it as one she had edited

Sonia expressed her disappointment. There’s an error in the data, and it was submitted late

This led to the client withdrawing their cooperation. This project has suffered because of this.” 

Several coworkers had not left far away; they overheard their conversation and turned their inquisitive eyes toward Candice

Candice was a longstanding employee at Aether Corporation. No matter how many disliked her, no one questioned her ability

She gazed at Sonia, who was giving her a regretful look

Candice went to see Alex at noon, as he had a client meeting later in the afternoon

He had been in the middle of going over a contract when she walked in

Alex raised an eyebrow and asked, You didn’t think to knock first?” 

I needed to discuss something urgent.Candice laid a document on his desk, asserting. These aren’t the files I submitted. They’ve been 

tampered with.” 

Alex stopped, glanced up, and inquired. “Do you have proof?” 

I’ve kept backups of the originals,Candice replied

Alex had always advised her to be cautious and prepared, especially given the numerous underhanded tactics in their line of work

He drummed his fingers on the table and said, Hmm, I believe you.” 

Alex’s answer moved Candice. She was about to respond when Alex shifted the conversation, remarking. But it’s irrelevant now. The 

client has already pulled out.” 

He raised his eyes to meet her gaze, stating matteroffactly, You were late in submitting those documents. That’s on you.” 

Candice attempted to justify. I was dealing with an emergency that day.” 

*The company cannot be held accountable for your personal emergencies.” 

Looking at him, Candice had to question, What about Sonia? Does the company make exceptions for her?” 

Alex’s rhythmic tapping on the desk ceased. He idly nudged a new toy on his desk and responded nonchalantly. The company might not 

but I do.” 

Candice was left momentarily speechless, and then realization dawned on her. Sonia had Alex’s backing her. He was ready to defend her, which was why she was fearless

With a wry chuckle, Candice shut her eyes briefly

Looking at Alex, she inquired, Is this project valued at five million?” 

Alex, without any emotion, stated, You know the rules; three months of your salary will be deducted.” 

Despite her high income, she did not have much in the bank because of Joe’s high nursing care costs. Most of her monthly earnings went 

there

After a moment of silent contemplation, she proposed, What if I can fix this?” 

Alex responded, Then you still get your commission.” 

Before she left the office, Candice acquired the contact information of the client and humbly invited him out for dinner, which he finally agreed to after several rejections

The dinner was arranged at a highend hotel downtown

He was there waiting for Candice when she got there
