Upon hearing Alex’s phone ring. Sieg offered a quick goodbye and walked away, leaving Alex to his call.

Now alone, Alex answered the phone.

There was a brief silence before Candice’s voice came through. “Where are you?”

Alex scoffed, “What does it matter to you?”

Candice was still at the hospital. She had just met with Joe to go over his surgery, which he had consented to. Once everything was set, she had stepped outside to make the call.

She didn’t believe in coincidences and also had had a realization.

Dr. Sui wasn’t employed at Silverstone Hospital. It didn’t make sense for them to request her grandfather for the surgery program. After all, Silverstone Hospital was a recognized Dorrington hospital that could provide its own surgeons.

Candice suspected Alex’s involvement, especially since she had spoken to him earlier that day. and the surgery had already been confirmed by the evening.

“I need to discuss my grandfather’s surgery with you.”

“What’s there to talk about?” Alex asked, his gaze narrowing.

“I told you I’d agree to anything if you helped me,” Candice said, her voice low and resigned.

Alex’s reply was emotionless. “Okay.”

Candice arrived promptly. Within thirty minutes, her car stopped in front of Alex.

Alex looked at her and demanded, “Drive me home.”

Candice complied. She parked her car, got out, and took Alex’s keys to drive him in his own car.

She knew he disliked her smaller vehicle.

The drive was quiet. Once they arrived, Candice returned the keys.
