My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 369

After ending the call with Darius, Candice was surprised to find a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

Darius had arranged to meet her tomorrow night at the 16th floor of the Pearl Grand Hotel.

Candice threw her phone aside and took a deep breath. The faces of Darius and Henry kept flashing in her mind, accompanied by Alex's words.

She felt stifled and annoyed as she was unable to shake off the feeling of heaviness in her heart.

She almost locked herself in her room all day. It wasn't until noon when Angela called her that she felt her dizzy head clear up slightly.

Once Candice answered the call, Angela's voice came through. "What happened? How did you and Mr. Elysian end up in a car accident together?"

"We were rear-ended."

Candice didn't want to explain much and simply recounted the incident.

She thought Angela was just asking out of concern, but she didn't expect her tone to change, "Then let us come and visit you. You and Mr. Elysian are in the same hotel, send us your location, and we'll come to see you." Candice was about to decline when she heard Angela whisper, "Don't misunderstand, I just want to seize this opportunity to impress Mr. Elysian. Everyone from our studio will come. We're counting on Mr. Elysian's investment."

With her saying this, Candice naturally couldn't refuse and could only send the address to Angela. But she also emphasized that they didn't need to come to see her, just contact Sawyer to find Alex.

Unexpectedly, Angela and the others still came to see her, bringing a bunch of supplements with them.

Candice tried to refuse. "Mr. Elysian is upstairs."

"I know he's upstairs, but we can't just go up without permission. When I contacted Sawyer just now, he was still at the hospital for a check-up and told us to come find you," Angela said.

"You can directly call Mr. Elysian..."

Before Candice could finish her sentence, Angela interrupted her. She grabbed Candice's hand. "Can you help me out? If I don't meet this year's target, I'll probably get fired. So, can you just take us to Mr. Elysian? Please."

Angela's act of being soft and sweet made it difficult for Candice to refuse, so she reluctantly followed her into the elevator.

Once inside, Angela let go of her hand and blinked innocently at Candice. "I'm sorry, but I really might get fired."

Seeing her like this, Candice's initial displeasure dissipated completely, and she said, "Alex is quite seriously injured. I don't know if he'll see you."

"It's okay, it's okay. We're just here to express our concern."

When they reached Alex's door, Candice knocked for a while without any response. She waited patiently for two minutes before knocking again, still to no avail.

She glanced at Angela. "It seems like he's not here."

Before she finished speaking, the door behind her opened.

Alex was wearing a bathrobe, his chest exposed, revealing a large area of skin.

Candice frowned instantly. "Angela's studio heard that you were injured and specially came to see you." She spoke quickly and softly, intending to remind Alex to put on some clothes.

However, he just glanced at the people and turned to walk back into the room. "Come in."

Candice hesitated for a moment before following him inside.

By the time they entered, Alex had already tidied his bathrobe and was sitting on the sofa, looking at them expressionlessly.
