Chapter 0198

Coming out of the restaurant, the rain had lightened up a bit.

“Does your hand still hurt?” Hanley asked Candice. “If it still hurts, let’s go to the hospital.”

Candice moved her wrist slightly. “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”

On the way back, Hanley remained silent. Candice guessed it was probably because Mrs. Jenkins. had mentioned his grandfather’s situation.

However, it was Hanley’s personal matter, and Candice did not feel it was appropriate to pry.

Surprisingly, Hanley still drove to a nearby hospital. He stopped the car and looked at Candice’s wrist. “The injury is on your right hand. It’s better to have it checked for peace of mind.”

He was kind, and Candice did not refuse. Fortunately, the results turned out fine, just a slight

sprain. Resting would suffice.

After the examination, it was already evening. Considering the time, Yvonne was probably close to

arriving in Noxville.

Candice actually still wanted to go to the Southern Gin Hotel to see Chad, but since Hanley was with her, she said nothing. She planned to return to the villa first and then go out on her own.

This way, she could also think about how to communicate with Chad.

Lisa called just as Hanley parked the car. Candice checked the time and saw that it was the end

of the workday.

She informed Hanley and answered Lisa’s call while walking out of the garage.

“Candice?” Lisa was silent for a moment before speaking. “I heard you resigned from Aether. Why?

The news of Candice’s resignation was something easily found out with a bit of inquiry.

Pretending not to sense the probing in Lisa’s words, Candice replied calmly. “Resigning is quite normal. What about you? Why are you with Francis now?”

The last time she saw Lisa, she was still with Humphrey.

Lisa gave a bitter laugh. “What else could it be? The salary here is higher.”
