Chapter 0220

Accompanying Sonia was another department manager whom Candice had interacted with

before. Upon hearing Sonia’s words, that person looked uneasy but didn’t dare to speak up. After all, the affair between Sonia, Candice, and Alex was still a hot topic in the company.

After Sonia finished speaking, she tilted her chin slightly, a trace of satisfaction evident in her eyes. “Candice, do you think I’m right?”

When Candice came to Aether Corporation, she expected to hear unpleasant words. However, the matters concerning the studio were more critical, and she couldn’t care much about other things.

Raising an eyebrow calmly, she inquired, “Is this how Ms. Summers treats guests now?”

Sonia frowned slightly, and Candice glanced at the receptionist beside her. “I made an appointment with Ms. Xandors from the secretary’s office. You can check.”

Winnie Xandor had been promoted in the secretary’s office after Candice had resigned. They had a decent relationship since they had previously worked together in the office.

Coincidentally, Kayla arrived. She greeted Candice, “Candice, Ms. Xandors asked me to come down and pick you up.”

Seeing Sonia’s stiff expression, Kayla smirked sarcastically. “Is Ms. Summers also here to bring Candice upstairs?”

It was almost the end of the workday, and Candice didn’t want to waste time. Without even looking at Sonia, she casually said, “Let’s go upstairs.”

“Candice.” However, Sonia suddenly spoke up. She stared at Candice’s composed face and slowly said, “It’s my birthday in a couple of days, and Alex has arranged a birthday party for me. Would you also come?”

Originally, she just wanted to regain some face in front of Candice, but as she continued, her confidence grew, and her tone rose a few decibels.

Yes. Alex would arrange a birthday party for her. What about Candice? What did she have? She

was just someone dismissed by Aether Corporation.

Entering the elevator and going upstairs, Kayla muttered beside Candice. “I don’t know what she’s showing off about. She wanders around the company all day long. For those who know her, she’s a secretary; for those who don’t, they might think she’s just a patrol guard.”

Candice didn’t respond. She had genuine business to see Winnie, so she had made an
