Chapter 0211

The next morning, Candice came downstairs to find her team having breakfast.

Everyone looked surprised when they saw her.

“Candice, you look like you didn’t get much sleep. Are you okay?”

Candice had noticed her pale complexion in the mirror when she washed up. She’d been up all night. It was surprising that her appearance reflected her lack of sleep.

Observing everyone’s formal wear, she shifted the topic and asked, “Do you have any plans today?

“We’re going to meet with the department heads. Hanley arranged for a small meeting,” they explained.

Candice’s brow furrowed slightly, and she asked, “Why wasn’t I informed?”

She concluded that Hanley probably didn’t want to burden her considering her recent hospital

stays.

“It’s just a minor discussion,” Ryan added. “Hanley suggested you focus on your personal matters instead.”

Candice had not seen Hanley and asked, “Where’s Hanley?”

Ryan looked around unconcernedly, saying, “He might have stepped out.”

Candice said no more. She greeted everyone and was about to leave.

The door opened from the outside as she grabbed it.

Hanley entered, his expression calm. “Heading out so soon?”

“I have a few things to handle.” Candice replied.

Hanley nodded, making way for her to pass, and followed her toward the garage.

Reaching the garage, Candice paused and asked, “Is there something you need from me?”
