Chapter 0261

Candice quickly recalled the details of the past, and she suddenly realized that the interaction between Sonia and Yvonne might be deeper than she had thought.

Could the matter of her grandfather also be related to her?

Candice immediately slammed on the brakes on her thoughts. Some things had no evidence, and

she did not even have the right to suspect. But she could not help but glance at Sonia a bit more.

The expression on Sonia’s face cooled slightly, and she raised her chin slightly. “Candice, you’ve been looking at me, is there something on your mind?”

Candice glanced away. “Just a bit distracted.” She did a good job on the surface, and others could not see any clues to her true thoughts.

Alex’s cold and calm eyes fell on her. The warm yellow light happened to be on him, softening his originally sharp gaze. But that softness was shattered when he spoke. “If it doesn’t concern you,

do you really not care and are still distracted?”

Every word was tinged with a hint of mockery, and it did not sound pleasant in Candice’s ears.

She blinked.““If there’s anything you need me to do, I can cooperate.”

Alex sneered. He casually lifted his eyes, and his tone became slightly serious. “Don’t act like

you’re doing me a favor, Candice. These are things you should have done. Regardless of whether

you admit it or not, it’s because of you that Ivor implicated me. Shouldn’t you return what you owe

me?”

His words were somewhat heavy, and Candice moved her lips but did not know how to refute. Or perhaps, she could not refute. Because what Alex said was the truth, Ivor had no grudges with him, and if it were not for Candice, he would not have been involved with Alex.
