The Wrong Woman

Chapter 947

After her words, Candice swiftly turned and left. She walked to the street, hailed a taxi, and returned to her office.

She felt a heavy weight in her chest throughout the day. Eventually, she couldn't contain her emotions any longer and dialed Mila's number.

Stationed at the frontier, Mila was taken aback by the call from Candice. At first, she thought Candice was simply missing her, but it soon became clear that she was seeking help.

With a troubled tone, Candice asked, "Aunt Chubs, why did your mother do this? She went through Elio's diary and even showed it to Josie.

The more she thought about the situation, the more her frustration grew.

Baffled, Mila asked, "Candice, what's wrong? What happened?"

"They're trying to force me and Elio apart. I'm just so devastated!" Candice replied.

"Who?"

"Your mother and Josie's aunt?"

Mila gasped. "My mom and Fenna?"
