Chapter 6


    Since Alex said he would bring Sonia to the party this weekend, Candice did not interfere.


    Shepiled the information into a file, sent it to Sonia via email, and stopped asking.


    However, Sonia was just an intern. She had to juggle between dealing with her workload and


    preparing for the party, so it overwhelmed her easily.


    Candice saw her in a mess and Alex’s reminder rang in her head. She asked Sonia, “Do you need


    help?”


    Sonia was startled.


    Candice looked into the girl’s eyes calmly. “There will be a lot of guests at Morinaga Estate’s party


    this weekend. I’ve sent you the guest list. Try to remember their preferences and you just need to


    remind Alex when he meets them.”


    Sonia nodded repeatedly and showed an adorable smile. “Thank you,


    Candice.”


    “Don’t be nervous.” Candice paused for a moment and added, “Alex will take care of you.”


    Sonia blushed when Alex’s name was mentioned. She bit her lips shyly and returned to her


    workstation with the file.


    Candice said nothing. She sent the same file to Alex’s work phone as well.


    She had ceased contacting Alex via his private number ever since he asked her to do so.


    After she sent the file over, she unconsciously scrolled down and saw the disy picture on Alex’s


    private number had turned into a pink rabbit.


    It had only been days.


    This reminded Candice of when she asked Alex to change his gray profile picture but he had always


    said it was troublesome.


    Later in the afternoon, the receptionist called to inform the arrival of Alex’s client.


    Candice told the receptionist to arrange for the client to wait in the meeting room before she got up


    and informed Alex.

    Alex nodded and headed to the meeting room with her.


    When he passed by Sonia’s desk, he tapped on it and said coldly, “Come to the meeting room.”


    Alex was obviously trying to train Sonia.


    Rumors abound in thepany that Candice was losing the CEO’s affection, but she remained


    unbothered.


    She followed Alex to the meeting room and chatted with the client.


    She then looked at Sonia and said, “Go bring us some tea.”


    When Sonia returned with tea, she saw Candice and Alex talking to the client masterfully. The


    sweet look on her face froze for a moment.


    After the client left, she grumbled softly, “Candice, Mr. Elysian, I’ll be going back to my work.”


    Candice barely reacted.


    The girl looked at Alex with reluctance and left the meeting room, leaving Alex


    alone with Candice.


    Candice frowned and asked, “Are you sure about bringing her to the party?”


    “If not?” Alex frowned and added, “Tell J to join the meeting whenever the clientes.”


    J Lee was another secretary at the Secretary’s Office and she had always managed internal


    affairs.


    Candice recalled Sonia’s grievance from earlier and instantly figured it out.


    She could not help but sigh. “You are too good to her.”


    Alex did not deny it. “She’s still a girl, of course I have to be good to her.”


    Then, a sudden thought rushed to his mind and he said, “Oh and choose a dress for Sonia. I’ll pay


    for it, just im from Financeter.”


    Candice never knew how caring Alex could be. She nodded stiffly and said, “I’ll ask for her


    preferenceter.”


    Before clocking out, Candice brought a few dresses to ask for Sonia’s opinion.


    As she was about to enter the office, she heard Sonia’s aggrieved voice, saying, Mr. Elysian, you


    should bring Candice to the party. I’m clumsy and I can’t do well. I don’t want to embarrass you.”

    Candice was stuck at the entrance, wondering whether to go in or leave.


    Then, she heard Alex say, “She’s just an employee. You are my girlfriend. Who do


    you think would embarrass me more?”


    Candice looked down.


    She was just an employee to him.
