The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 927

Fearing Elio might misconstrue her words, Candice hastily explained, "Please, don't be angry. I didn't mean to criticize her, I just—"

Elio promptly intervened, "I'm not angry. I'm just curious. If you think she's being deceitful, why do you still treat her with such kindness and respect?"

"Her actions are her own. As long as I steer clear, she won't involve me. There's no reason for me to engage in conflict and create unnecessary tension," Candice explained calmly.

Elio couldn't resist tenderly stroking Candice's head, murmuring, "Your wisdom never fails to impress."

Candice smiled in acknowledgment.

As Elio's eyes remained fixated on her lips, his fingertips traced a delicate path against them, revealing a blend of desire and yearning in his gaze.

Feeling Elio's tender caress, Candice's heart raced with anticipation.

She had been looking forward to spending time with him.

But whenever they found themselves alone, Elio grappled with the urge to kiss her, their moments together consumed by physical intimacy.

"Elio—" Candice's words were quickly silenced by Elio's passionate kiss, his hands tenderly embracing her face.

A soft moan escaped Candice's lips as she succumbed to the moment, her eyes closing in surrender.

Gradually, Elio's body pressed against hers, deepening the connection between them.

All of a sudden, a knock echoed at the door, interrupting the charged atmosphere.

After two more insistent knocks, Sean entered the room, his presence breaking the tension like a sudden gust of wind.

Startled by the intrusion, Candice pushed Elio away, scrambling to her feet in a nervous flurry. Her cheeks glowed with embarrassment as her emotions swirled in a turbulent blend of nerves and shame.

Though Sean hadn't witnessed their intimate moment, the abrupt movements from Candice's and Elio's stumble spoke volumes. From their breathless state and flushed cheeks, it was clear what had transpired between them.

Sean felt an uncomfortable tension settle in the room. "I'm sorry, Mr. Hoffis, I'll leave right away…"

Concealing his emotions, Elio let his eyes drift shut as he exhaled slowly.

Just then, Candice's voice pierced the silence. "You don't have to leave. I... I'll go..."

For Candice, the office seemed like the least appropriate setting for such ambiguous interactions. It was meant for professional endeavors, not romantic entanglements between couples.

Without another word, Candice swiftly exited the room.

Elio hurriedly followed after her, calling out urgently, "Candice—!"
