Chapter 0191

Candice looked at him, every word unspoken felt like a stab to her chest. “Then what do you want

from me?”

The calm facade on her face seemed to crack, revealing a trace of confusion and helplessness as she murmured softly. “What else do you want me to do?”

Alex glanced down at her without much emotion in his voice. “Isn’t this your specialty?”

He leaned back a bit, his gaze slightly darkened. “Aren’t you best at pleasing people? Jackson, Hanley?”

Watching her, he lazily unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, his expression devoid of emotion, but his words were like a knife piercing through Candice’s heart.

“Candice, you don’t need to pretend to be innocent in front of me.”

The car’s space was cramped, filled only with the sound of their breathing. Her hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. She felt an urge to open the car door and escape. Breathing became difficult; the air in the car seemed laden with needles, each breath causing her more pain.

As soon as he finished speaking, Candice suddenly leaned closer.

Her lips brushed against his chin, a gesture of appeasement, before she pulled away.

Her voice was faint, as fleeting as a willow catkin, impossible to grasp.

“Is this enough to please you?”

Candice thought to herself; she must be despicable enough now, willingly trying to please

someone who was tired of her.

She felt numb and cold inside, but she didn’t understand what Alex meant by “satisfaction“.

Alex’s cold snort seemed particularly ironic in the quiet space.
