It was a call from Nadia.

Nadia rarely called her and mostly just messaged through WhatsApp. Furthermore, when she had

left them this morning the whole group knew that she was going to the hospital.

Hearing what had happened at the studio yesterday, combined with Nadia’s call now, Candice immediately had a bad premonition.

She waited for Yvonne to get out of the car before she finally answered the phone.

As soon as the call connected, she heard Nadia’s voice, her tone somewhat serious. “Candice, are you still at the hospital?”

“No, what’s wrong?”

“There’s an impromptu meeting in the department regarding the collaboration. We rushed over and forgot to bring a document. If you can make it, could you help us deliver it?”

Due to her involvement in the financial exhibition, Candice was officially associated with the studio. Though not a formal employee yet, she could be considered an extra.

Candice hummed her agreement. “Send me the address, I’ll bring it over in a bit.”

“You might need to hurry. The meeting starts at one this afternoon.”

It was only eleven in the morning, but the rain made the road conditions poor.

back to Yvonne’s hotel it was already half–past twelve.

Yvonne had not come down yet, but Candice did not wait and drove off.

When she heard Hanley and Ryan talking last night, she roughly understood that the studio that was suddenly intervening was a well–established art studio in Dorrington.

It was how they managed to secure so many corporate collaborations.

After packing the materials requested by Hanley, Candice searched for additional data online. printed it, and took everything with her.
