My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 429

Candice stood at the end of the corridor, with hardly anyone passing by. She stared at the tiles and asked, "You don't want Harley to help me with the lawsuit?"

Of course.

After all, she was going to sue Sonia, and it was too late for Alex to save her. How could Aether Corporation's legal team help her?

Candice smiled wryly and was about to speak when she heard Alex casually say, "I just wanted to remind you that Harley and Quil have a feud."

Candice was taken aback. "What feud?"

"Harley and Quil are from the same school. They once had a very ugly incident because of a case. I heard that Harley was the plaintiff's lawyer and Quil was the defendant's."

"Who won?"

"The plaintiff withdrew the lawsuit."

Candice's breath hitched, then she heard his indifferent voice again. "Harley and Quil are known in the industry as arch-enemies."

She understood now why Harley readily agreed when she mentioned Quil's name.

She lowered her head in thought and asked Alex, "Did you intentionally come to tell me this?"

"I just wanted to remind you that Jensen's flight is on Monday. Don't forget." His voice was calm.

Sawyer, who was delivering documents nearby, hesitated to speak.

It wasn't until Alex and Candice finished discussing Jensen's matter that he hesitantly asked Alex, "Mr. Elysian, aren't we also returning to Dorrington City tonight? Why don't you tell Candice?"

Alex raised his gaze, his eyes showing no emotional fluctuations. He pointed at the documents. "Are the documents ready at headquarters?"

Sawyer paused. "I'll go check."

But before he could turn around, he received a text message. As he glanced at it, his expression immediately became serious, and then handed the phone to Alex.

-

Candice's mood was bad all afternoon because of Yvonne's matter.

However, in the evening, she received a call from an unfamiliar number. It was a middle-aged man's voice on the other end, "Ms. Renault, I'm Quil. Can we meet and talk?"

Candice arranged to meet Quil nearby. When she arrived, he was already there, and surprisingly, Sonia was also present.

"Ms. Renault." Quil greeted her naturally when he saw her.

Sonia looked at her with a fake smile.

Candice sat down and asked Quil, "What do you want to talk about?"

He seemed somewhat surprised, but he quickly regained his composure. He took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to her. "Ms. Renault, since you're straightforward, I won't say much. Our side still hopes for a settlement. Here are our conditions. You can take a look. If there's anything unsatisfactory, you can make changes."

Candice glanced at the document, then said, "Mr. Lawson, no matter what the conditions are, I won't agree."

"Ms. Renault, I advise you to reconsider." Quil's attitude remained calm. He opened the document himself and said, "The conditions here are already very generous. Even if you win the lawsuit, you may not get as much compensation, let alone if you lose."

He spoke confidently, and even Sonia chimed in. But compared to Quil, her tone carried a hint of smugness and sarcasm. She warned Candice, "Candice, I advise you to agree. Otherwise, when it gets to the end, you won't like it.
