My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 424

Dorrington police had called Sonia several times urging her to return to Dorrington to cooperate with the investigation. But she knew that it would be very difficult for her once she returned.

Alex would not help her anymore, and Xavier even less so. As for Quentin, after knowing she had been summoned by the police, he had been eager to cut ties immediately.

The only one who could help her now was Darius.

Sonia pursed her lips. After some self-reflection, she headed for the company entrance.

As soon as she entered, she saw a girl standing at the front desk, very thin with almost transparent white skin, the kind of person who would easily evoke a protective instinct.

Sonia couldn’t help but stare, and Bella, feeling her gaze, looked back at her.

The girl had a very pure and clear gaze, but Sonia couldn’t bring herself to like it. She even subconsciously felt a bit repulsed by it.

Foolish, silly, and pretentious.

She decisively shifted her gaze back to the front desk and said, "Hello, I'm here to see Darius."

"Do you have an appointment?" the receptionist asked.

Sonia could not help but raise her chin. "I'm his friend, and I have something very important to discuss with him. He’s brought me here before."

Bella had just started to leave, but paused at Sonia’s words, puzzled, and turned back. She looked at Sonia's arrogant figure. She frowned, blinked, and hesitantly headed over.

She stopped beside Sonia, and hesitantly asked, "Hello, do you know Darius?"

Sonia was caught off guard by her voice. Bella's voice was as clear and pure as her appearance, refreshing like the clear sky after rain. It made people feel comfortable just listening to her.

Sonia looked at her with a hint of displeasure. She really couldn’t bring herself to like Bella's demeanor, she was too delicate and fake.

"Sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet,” Bella said, trying to explain, as she had never seen Sonia in Darius’ circle of friends. “I'm Darius's—"

"What does my relationship with Darius have to do with you?" Sonia interrupted, her tone dismissive as she sneered. Displeasure flashed in her eyes as she looked at Bella arrogantly.

Bella felt Sonia's hostility and frowned. "Are you very close to Darius?"

Sonia smiled mysteriously and said, "Yes, we are very close." She brushed past Bella and headed straight for the elevator.

Bella stood where she’d been left, looking hesitant.

The closing ceremony of the summit ended in the afternoon, and the organizers were busy arranging a dinner, insisting that everyone must attend.

Originally, Candice wanted to find an excuse to refuse, but Angela patted her shoulder and said, "It's the last time, just endure it a bit longer."

Yondu also sighed as he came over. "I don't want to go either. The final dinner is always meaningless, and dealing with all the drinking is really annoying."

Candice couldn’t drink because she was pregnant, so if she went, she could only sit there.

Moreover, Quentin, the special guest, would be there. Whenever he was present, Candice and Burning Star would inevitably be ridiculed.

Candice shook her head and sent a message to Hanley to report that the summit had ended.
