My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 85

Chapter 0085

“In such a state, the later we join the fray, the less opportunity we will get,” Candice said in a warm and polite tone. She was simply showing Ava the situation they were in.

Ava’s expression was still dark as she snorted and said, “Do you think I need you to remind me of this?”

Candice’s voice was of good cheer as she said, “Of course, you wouldn’t need me to remind you. You are a very detailed person and can determine the perfect time to invest in the market.”

more. When Alex got back to the office, they cross-checked the contract again.

The moment it was signed, Candice relax her furrowed brows a little.

Nina was standing at the side, with her gaze on Alex. “Now that we’re partners, do you want to have dinner
