Chapter 0257

Before leaving, Nadia and Ryan were going to the department, and Hanley was also taking people

to review materials. So, Candice had to go to Aether Corporation alone.

Before departing, Hanley furrowed his brows and said in concern, “Let Nadia go with you.”

Candice remained composed, “No need. Since you’ve all discussed it, I just need to go and sign

the contract.”

His brows remained furrowed. Seeing this, she sighed. “No need to worry anymore. I’m really fine.”

She said so, and even if Hanley wanted to say something more, he couldn’t.

Before going to Aether Corporation, she directly contacted Sawyer.

He asked her to wait for him in the small meeting room.

Candice was very familiar with Aether Corporation and knew that the small meeting room Sawyer

mentioned was right next to the CEO’s office.

However, she didn’t expect to run into Nina just a few steps after exiting the elevator.

Nina was similar to when Candice had met her in Stugan City. She wore a small suit, and her chin was slightly raised as she walked.

Her aloof appearance had some resemblance to Alex, similar to Candice’s encounter with him.

Candice’s eyelashes flickered as she stepped aside a few steps. She and Nina were not acquainted, and there was no need to greet each other.

However, Nina walked past Candice without any deviation, and her shoulder rudely bumped into

Candice.

The unfriendly attitude was too obvious. Candice stopped, and Nina raised her eyebrows slightly. In a casual tone, she asked, “Looking for Alex?”

There was evident disdain in her words. Candice was sensitive to emotions, and Nina had
