Chapter 0248

“One million five hundred thousand?”

Alex’s tone revealed nothing, but the apparent disdain in his eyes was evident. He looked arrogantly at Ivor for a while, then nodded slowly.

“Sure. I’ll give it to you.”

Candice abruptly looked up, only to see Alex slightly lowering his head. His long eyelashes shield his eyes, making it impossible to discern his emotions.

Instantly, a burst of joy erupted in Ivor’s eyes.

Ignoring the large security guards pulling him back, he eagerly extended his neck towards Alex.

“Are you serious? You’re giving me one million five hundred thousand?”

When Alex looked up again, his gaze turned icy.

Ivor looked ecstatic, and Alex looked at him with a frown.

“Either get lost, or I’ll call the police.”

Ivor had achieved his goal. The ferocity on his face receded, replaced once again by a sly smile as

he licked his lips.

“Remember to transfer the money,” he said, then turned to Candice beside him. “I guess you’re still somewhat useful in the end. Serve Mr. Elysian well in the future!”

The last sentence carried malice, leaving Candice with an unpleasant expression. However, she had no strength to deal with Ivor’s insolence now. She looked at Alex, her mind still grappling with the matter of one million five hundred thousand.

The entire farce lasted no more than ten minutes.

After Ivor disappeared, the onlookers gradually dispersed.

Kayla looked at Candice with concern. “Candice, are you okay?”

Candice’s face turned pale, appearing somewhat exhausted. She shook her head.

“I’m fine.”

Kayla wanted to say something more, but as she lifted her eyes, she met Alex’s deep eyes. Her

heart trembled, understanding what had transpired.
