“What he said–my car broke down,” she said as she picked up the glass of wine that Alex poured. She simply added, “If you want a drinking buddy, I’ll take his place.”

Candice frowned. Alex was obviously displeased judging from his tone.

Candice was surprised. She stared at Sonia coldly but before she could say a word, Alex added, “Is it so?”

His deep eyes were fixated on Candice, waiting for her answer.

“Don’t give her a hard time,” Jackson said gently. His smile was as soothing as the spring breeze. He easily got Candice out of the tricky situation.

“We are just friends.”
