After her words, Candice swiftly turned and left. She walked to the street, hailed a taxi, and returned to her office.
She felt a heavy weight in her chest throughout the day. Eventually, she couldn't contain her emotions any longer and dialed Mila's number.
Stationed at the frontier, Mila was taken aback by the call from Candice. At first, she thought Candice was simply missing her, but it soon became clear that she was seeking help.
With a troubled tone, Candice asked, "Aunt Chubs, why did your mother do this? She went through Elio's diary and even showed it to Josie. Why is she so intent on forcing Elio to marry someone he dislikes?"
Candice slumped over her desk, silently weeping. Her heart ached for Elio. The more she thought about the situation, the more her frustration grew.
Baffled, Mila asked, "Candice, what's wrong? What happened?"
"They're trying to force me and Elio apart. I'm just so devastated!" Candice replied.
"Who?"
"Your mother and Josie's aunt?"
Mila gasped. "My mom and Fenna?"
Candice simply hummed in affirmation.
Mila reassured her. "Candice, please don't cry. With Leo by your side, there's nothing to fear. He loves you more than you realize and won't give up on you easily. No one can tear you apart as long as you stay strong."
"But Aunt Chubs, I'm terrified! I'm worried your mother won't accept our relationship. I can't even bring myself to go with Elio to meet your parents."
Mila sighed deeply, her mind racing with thoughts of Michaela's stubbornness, Fenna's deceitful tactics, and Josie's manipulations. A shiver of dread ran through her as she worried for Candice.
After a brief pause, Mila said, "Candice, don't be afraid. My parents do like you. It's just that they view Leo's marriage as a strategic alliance. They believe Josie would be a better match for him due to her influence and capabilities, not because they genuinely prefer her over you."
"So, how can I make them accept me?"

Oh God I'd die broken-heart if Sienna and Daniel doesn't end up together happily ever after!!...
