My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 498

Candice pursed her lips and left with Ellis in her arms.

Alex and the doctor followed them out.

Seeing Candice's serious expression, the doctor thought she was worried about the child and comforted her. "The results will come out soon. The main concern with children's allergies is their lack of awareness and precaution. As long as parents supervise properly, there usually won't be any major problems."

Candice forced a smile upon hearing this. "Thank you, doctor."

Edward glanced at Ellis, then looked at Alex, jokingly saying, "With multiple drug allergies, you're more familiar with this than me. You can share your experience with your friend."

Alex and Edward were high school classmates. When he suddenly came to make an appointment for a check-up, Edward was surprised, wondering if Alex had gotten married.

Moreover, as a pediatrician, he was sensitive, and at first glance at Ellis, he felt the child bore some resemblance to Alex in facial features. So, he jokingly asked if Ellis was Alex's daughter.

But given the current situation, it's probably hard to say.

Edward had been a pediatrician for so many years, he had seen a lot of things. He smiled and handed Candice a business card. "I'm here in Dorrington City. You can always come to me for any child-related issues in the future."

After saying that, he left.

Candice subconsciously avoided Alex's gaze and turned with Ellis. "The check-up is done. I have something else to do."

"I heard Joseph Zanford tried to contact you earlier," Alex suddenly spoke up.

Joseph was William's older brother.

"Joseph will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. If you encounter him, you'd better tell me immediately."

Candice stopped in her tracks. "I probably won't encounter him." After all, she was about to leave Dorrington City.

It was funny how the most familiar place had become a place she couldn't stay in for long.

Just as she was about to leave, she heard a sarcastic voice behind her, "If the nurse hadn't told me you were here, I wouldn't have believed it. Aren't you the one who hates kids the most? What are you doing in the pediatric department?"

Candice glanced over to see Sieg.

Sieg always wore a mocking expression on his face. He looked at Alex, "Oscar brought your father here, oh, and Edward is waiting upstairs for your family meeting."

Alex's eyes narrowed slightly, and his originally gentle demeanor suddenly turned cold. He glanced deeply at Candice and spoke without much emotion, "Be safe on your way back."

Candice was just stunned. Alex had already walked away. She took Ellis and was about to leave when Sieg's voice came from behind, "This matter is somewhat related to you. Are you just leaving like this? As I suspected, you're quite ruthless."

After saying this, he sneered, looking meaningfully at Candice.

Yana frowned. "Please get it straight. It was William who attacked Alex, not Candice. She is also a victim. Stop using the rhetoric that victims are guilty. Candice's willingness to visit him shows her conscience and morality, not because she owes Alex."

Yana was very protective of Candice. After saying this, she was about to pull Candice away. As they passed by Sieg, he stopped Candice.

Though his demeanor remained casual, there was a hint of seriousness in his eyes. "Do you know what cooperation with the Zanford family means for Aether Corporation? By directly offending the Zanford family's partner, Alex has essentially offended the Zanford family." Sieg continued, "You should be clearer than me. He could have used this incident to gain greater benefits for Aether Corporation."

When Alex returned to the hospital room, he saw a group of people inside, all of them looking grim.

Except for Oscar.
