My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 457

Almost as soon as Candice exited, Henry came over from the side.

The anger on his face was obvious, and he was even more unhappy when he saw Candice. He began to question angrily. "What are you doing here? Did you secretly follow me here? And what did you just say to Ava?"

He launched a barrage of questions, his expression fierce and urgent, as if Candice was disturbing him.

She waited for Henry to finally stop and then spoke indifferently. "So, you're afraid of what I might tell Ava?"

Looking at Henry's nervous expression, Candice went straight to the point. The anxiety in Henry's tone was indeed suspicious. She glanced around, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Are you afraid I'll tell her about Hailey, or that you have another wife in Solaris?"

Not many people knew about Henry's wife in Solaris, except for what Darius had told her when they were in contact before.

Sure enough, as soon as she mentioned Henry's wife, his expression immediately changed. He looked furious, raised his hand, and was about to strike Candice. "Say that again!"

Looking at the enraged Henry, Candice couldn’t help but find him extremely ridiculous. It was already enough to prove how foolish she had been to give Henry the benefit of the doubt before.

What good could a man be who would abandon his wife and child to go sleep around with women?

Whether it was Yvonne, or his current wife and Ava, meeting Henry was very unlucky

Candice watched as Henry raised his hand, expecting it to land on her, but instead, a hand with distinct knuckles came from the side to block it.

Alex had appeared at some point, and he raised his hand to stop Henry's movement, positioning himself in front of Candice. His tone was heavy. "Mr. Renault, when will you change your habit of using violence?"

Henry suddenly noticed Alex and was stunned. He asked instinctively, "Didn't you just go inside?"

Alex ignored him, turned to look at Candice, and asked, "Are you okay?"

Candice glanced at Alex with a complicated look, then turned to look at Henry.

She was really tired of Henry's occasional entanglement and harassment. She was obvious about the fact that she didn’t care about him or his matters at all, but he always came to her looking for trouble.

But giving explanations didn’t work on people like Henry. His way of thinking seemed to be different.

Feeling disheartened, Candice could only turn around and leave.

Fortunately, Hanley's dinner had coincidentally ended too, and he called her.

Candice waited at the door for them to return together.

Hanley and the others came out quickly. Everyone seemed normal, and Candice didn’t ask if they had seen Alex and Henry.

-

"It was really impressive how you just walked away from me and outside." Nina stood in the corridor, looking at Alex who had returned, her tone mocking. "Do you still remember why we came here today?"

Alex's expression was much colder than before, and he reminded Nina faintly, "So, now you remember?"

Nina's expression stiffened, then she smiled indifferently and said, "Alex, your level of concern for Candice really makes it hard for me not to suspect that her child is yours." She smiled and gently reminded Alex, "I don't think Uncle Daniel and Aunt Helen would accept that, would they?"
