Chapter 0099

Holding the phone, Candice remained silent for a while. Yvonne thought she might not want to come over.

She could not help but anxiously say, “I just want to make you some delicious food. I know you work hard, and what I said yesterday was thoughtless. Candy, you’re not mad at me, right? Can I just make it up to you?”

In the end, Yvonne voice even carried a hint of a sob.

Candice closed her eyes and heard herself numbly say, “I’m at the hospital.”

Yvonne was taken aback. “Why are you at the hospital? Should I bring the food to the hospital?”

Her concern sounded genuine, and Candice hesitated for a moment but still said, “It’s nothing.”

“Candy, wait for me. I’ll bring Peach to the hospital right away.” Yvonne began packing things, the sound of clinking dishes audible.

Suddenly, Sonia’s soft voice came from behind. “Lex, can you accompany me to register?”

Candice lowered her eyes, and hearing Yvonne’s hurried and anxious movements through the phone, she

paused before saying calmly, “Give me the address. I’ll come over.”

Yvonne sighed. “Then, I’ll wait for you to come.”

Listening to the joy in Yvonne’s voice, Candice could not muster much happiness.

After all, she had to ask for Yvonne’s address on–the–spot.

She hung up and turned around to find Sonia holding Alex’s arm, staring at her thoughtfully.

Candice acted as if she did not notice and calmly said, “I have something to attend to. I’ll leave first.”

“Candice.” Sonia called after her. “Lex just said we could have lunch together.”

Candice lowered her head to look at her phone. Yvonne had already sent the address.

She looked up and declined softly. “Thanks, but you two go ahead.”

Looking at Alex, she remained silent for a moment before repeating. “Thank you.”

She was referring to Alex accompanying her to the hospital, though she did not understand why he did so.
