The Wrong Woman

Chapter 926

Josie couldn't grasp Candice's rationale. "But why?" she countered.

Candice remained composed as she explained, "Firstly, those items were gifted to you, so they rightfully belong to you.

"Secondly, aside from their monetary value, those possessions don't have a practical use. They need to be preserved and passed down to the next generation. Ultimately, they're not something I can rightfully claim.

"Thirdly, Elio has already given me plenty of jewelry during our engagement, which I can pass down to future generations."

Josie took a deep breath, feeling as though she were on the brink of losing her sanity.

It all felt completely absurd.

She was left dumbfounded, utterly bewildered by Candice's innocent and straightforward outlook on life.

Still, Josie's intrigue regarding Elio's feelings toward Candice persisted, especially given Candice's perceived naivety.

Despite Josie's best efforts to manipulate Candice, she found herself increasingly frustrated by her inability to sway her.

However, upon further reflection, Josie's perspective began to shift.

It could be precisely because Elio's mind was consistently engaged with the complexities and strategies of the business world, where he often had to be sharp and relentless.

This might explain why he found Candice's simplicity so attractive.
