Chapter 157

As Alex’s indifferent words were spoken, Candice felt as if her entire heart had been violently pounded,

to the extent that she could not catch her breath for a moment.

She looked at Alex in disbelief, and the fingers supporting her on the cabinet turcite due to exertion.

Candice felt a ringing in her ears, almost as if her head was buzzing.

She could not understand.

She could not comprehend how Alex could say such things.

Even if he did not like her or was fed up with her, it did not mean he could do this.

A nauseating feeling surged, and Candice’s face began to pale. She bent slightly, trying to alleviate the

discomfort.

Alex had yet to leave. Dressed in a sleek black suit with every button on the shirt fastened impeccably,

he looked down at Candice with his dark, penetrating eyes.

The depths of his eyes were unfathomable, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

By the time Alex was summoned away by a phone call, Candice still had not uttered a word.

She stood in place for quite a while, then awkwardly pulled the corners of her mouth into a faint smile.

Tears had dried on her face, leaving only an uncomfortable sensation.

The next morning, Candice did not go to the company. Instead, she went directly to Dorrington

Hospital.

The scheduled medical examination was comprehensive, so comprehensive that Caridice could not

help but think that Alex was somewhat considerate.

However, when she was called into the gynecology department, her expression was still unpleasant.

The doctor in the gynecology department, seeing Candice enter, spoke in a cold tone. “Go inside, take

off your pants, and lie down.”

Candice placed the examination form on the table and entered the examination room with an impassive

face.

While routine check–ups were not new to her, this time, she could not help but shudder to see

The examining doctor was not gentle, and the attitude shown was quite mechanical. After the

examination, as Candice left, she felt an inexplicable sense of frustration.

The results would take a few hours to be ready, so Candice decided not to go

mpany.

She planned to go to a nearby park. However, before leaving the hospital, she received a call from

Hanley. He asked. “How was your meeting with Blue Artifact yesterday?”

Candice hesitated before saying. “It’s hard to tell. Blue Artifact has many options and may not

choose Aether.”

Hanley chuckled lightly. “Really? I thought we could cooperate indirectly this time.”

“Have you already come to an agreement with Blue Artifact?”

“Yeah, they want to promote their niche series.” After finishing the conversation, Hanley seemed to

think of something and asked, “Are you outside now?”

Candice took a deep breath. “I’m handling something outside.”

Hanley did not want to disturb her further but mentioned. “If you have time later, let’s have a meal.

together. Blue Artifact should be joining too.”

It seemed he was trying to play matchmaker between Candice and Blue Artifact. Candice tried her best

to sound pleasant and joyful. “In that case, I’ll have to thank you.”

After ending the call with Hanley, Candice still went to the nearby park after buying a simple bun

for lunch.

In the afternoon, the medical examination results were out, and she went to the hospital to get the

report. She took photos of each page and sent them to Alex on WhatsApp.

Then, without saying a word, she prepared to drive home.

She did not want to go to the company or see Alex. All she wanted was to stay quietly by herself.

Candice turned off her phone when she got home and only turned it on the next morning. Fortunately,

no one had tried to contact her.

Alex did not reply to the medical examination reports she sent him, and Candice did not bother to

ask.

Either way, she had already done what he wanted her to do.
