Candice was shocked. She frowned.

She instinctively looked at Alex who was standing a little further away and said, “I’m in a hurry. I don’t have time to have dinner with you

Duys.”

Sonia bit her lip in silence. She snorted and got up slowly before she walked back to Alex. She looked like she had suffered the greatest

grievance.

Alex stared at Candice coldly before looking at Sonia.

He asked gently as if he was cooing a baby. “Are you hurt?”

Sonia shook her head. “I’m fine. Alex, let’s go. We are bringing fish soup to my father.”

She then held Alex’s hand and walked away. When she walked past Candice, she intentionally looked away.

Alex allowed the girl to drag him like a puppet. He walked with large strides but he slowed down for the petite girl.

Fortunately, Candice’s grandfather was not severely injured. He was on his way back from school and a bike accidentally sped past him, causing him to fall and sprained his ankle.

He would be fine after a few days of rest.

Candice was worried, so she insisted he stay at the hospital for a few days. She asked the doctor for a medical certificate.

While she was on her way to pay the medical fee, she bumped into Alex at the elevator again.

He was alone and had a thermal flask in his hand.

He frowned when he saw Candice. “What are you doing here?”

Candice paused for a moment and then pressed the button. She said calmly. “My family is admitted.”

She sounded as indifferent as always.

Alex scoffed after a moment of silence. He looked at Candice, his deep eyes had a mix of frostiness and annoyance.

“Candice, you’ve really gotten creative lately.”

Candice did not understand what he meant. She frowned.

Alex sneered, “Your family is here?”

He knew Candice’s family’s situation better than anyone. Her divorced parents were not in Dorrington City and her only family, her grandfather, was in the nursing home behind the hospital
