The Wrong Woman

Candice instantly panicked, wondering what Elio meant by his words.

She was stunned, staring at him blankly. Although tears still welled up in her eyes, she was dumbfounded.

Seeing her dazed expression, innocent and clueless, Elio asked angrily, "Did you hear me clearly?"

Candice was so shocked that she gulped. She quickly nodded.

Elio thought she understood until Candice blurted out, "I heard you. I don't need you to take responsibility. I won't cling to you."

Elio was furious. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to ease the pain deep in his heart. After a moment, he said coldly, "No, I want you to take responsibility."

Candice froze. She bewilderedly asked, "I... need to take responsibility for you?"
