Chapter 0316


    Alex''s face had always been expressionless, but Sonia felt that his cold expression was even more


    terrifying than usual now.


    His usual cold indifferent eyes were reced by a deep chill. When she met his eyes, all the


    prepared words were swallowed back. She even hesitated and considered leaving before making


    any moves.


    However, before she could act, he looked at her and asked, "The information about Aether


    Corporation, did you give it to Xavier?"


    Sonia was stunned, almost as if she didn''t expect Alex to ask her this question.


    Standing in ce, she felt somewhat at a loss.


    Sonia had thought Alex would ask her why she was with Xavier, why she had slept with another


    man. However, he was only concerned about Aether Corporation''s documents.


    Her originally prepared excuses seemed useless at that moment. She could only ask him, "Don''t


    you have any other questions for me?"


    Alex stared at her, and apart from the usual coldness in his eyes, there was also a hint of


    impatience. He tapped his fingers on the table and said in a cold tone, "Can''t you understand my


    words? I''m asking you, did you give Aether Corporation''s information to Xavier?"


    The hurt on Sonia''s face was too obvious. She slowly walked to Alex and looked at him with a


    mournful expression. "Alex, do you know what you''re saying? I''ve slept with another man, and


    you''re still concerned about your files... Alex, do you really not care about me?!"


    Sonia''s final questionpletely brought out Alex''s impatience. He didn''t bother to conceal it as he


    directly instructed Sawyer, "Call the police. Someone has stolen confidential business information."


    Hearing this, Sonia''s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Alex, screaming, "Alex!"


    Tears started to flow from her eyes. She looked heartbroken. It was as if Alex was an extremely


    heartless person.


    Still, he remained unmoved.


    He still sat in his original position and looked down at her from a higher vantage point without any


    sign of being moved.


    Looking at his indifferent expression, she suddenly felt an overwhelming bitterness in her heart. She


    bit her lip and turned her head to the side, trying to avoid his gaze.


    However, she happened to see Candice sitting in the corner.


    Candice was also expressionless as her eyes were filled with indifference.


    However, Sonia inexplicably felt as if she saw absolute superiority and mockery in Candice''s eyes.


    She could tolerate Alex''s indifference, but who was Candice to be indifferent toward her?!


    Sonia clenched her fists as she couldn''t tolerate Candice looking down on her!


    Clearly, Candice was inferior in every way!


    Why did Candice have the right to look down on her, to despise her?!


    Sonia''s palms clenched into fists, and she suddenly looked up at Alex, questioning, "Why is


    Candice here? Alex, why do you want to meet this despicable person again?!"


    Ayer of frost had already covered Alex''s face. He stared at Sonia intently, and besides the usual


    coldness, there was a surge of impatience in his eyes.


    His voice also carried a strong sense of oppression as he insisted, "Answer my question."


    Instantly, she was intimidated by his aura.


    It seemed as if she couldn''t understand why he was suddenly talking to her like this. Her voice


    choked, "Yes! I gave the documents to Xavier, but won''t you ask me why I did it?"


    "Alex, you should ask yourself who your girlfriend is. Why should your documents be delivered by


    Candice? Why can''t you tell me?"


    "I just want to know how important this document is to you that Candice can deliver it but I can''t!"


    "And you took her to take a family photo at your grandfather''s birthday? What about me?! What do


    you take me for? She''s just a slut who sleeps with anyone!"


    “You abandoned me for such a disgusting woman. Alex, do you have no heart at all?”


    Sonia almost cried out each word intively, looking at Alex with eyes full of hurt and


    disappointment.


    At this point in the absurd drama, Candice no longer cared about the aftermath. She hadn''t said


    anything, yet she found herself being disrespected by Sonia.


    Rising expressionlessly, she spoke in a calm tone, "Since it''s already proven to have nothing to do


    with me, I''ll leave."


    She nced at Sonia and said indifferently, "The affairs of Aether Corporation are your own


    business. Please don''t involve me. Otherwise, I won''t mind suing you for defamation and spreading


    rumors."


    This time, Alex didn''t say anything more.


    Before leaving, Candice nced at him again. His features were sharp, and in his dark eyes, there


    was ayer of unfathomable gloom.


    Sensing her gaze, Alex raised his eyelids, turning his attention to her.


    In that brief moment of eye contact, Candice''s brow subtly furrowed.


    She pursed her lips, shifted her gaze away, and left Aether Corporation.


    The night was cool, the roads outside had already quieted down, and only the top floor of Aether


    Corporation''s building behind her was still illuminated.


    Candice waited by the roadside for a while, then took a taxi back to the vi.


    Sonia''s aftermath waster conveyed to her by Ka after two days.


    It was said that she had been expelled from Aether Corporation and dumped by Alex.


    Sonia was unwilling. She had caused a scene at Aether Corporation for two days, making it quite


    ugly.


    Ka said, "Sonia deserves it. She is not content. What she did could be considered stealing


    company secrets, and because of her, Aether Corporation suffered a lot of losses. Mr. Elysian was


    kind enough to not report her for stealing business secrets, yet she shamelesslyes to the


    company to cause a scene."


    "She truly has no shame."


    Candice was not surprised by how Alex handled Sonia.


    After all, Sonia was someone he had genuinely cared about, so there would always be some


    privileges.


    He wouldn''t be willing to sue her.


    However, whether Alex pursued the matter or not, she would certainly take Sonia to court first.


    Ivor''s phone had been repaired, and the recordings inside could be reviewed. Candice was about to


    go out to meet Jackson to retrieve the phone.


    While Alex might let Sonia go, Candice wouldn''t.


    She had said that as long as Sonia meddled and caused harm to Joe, she wouldn''t let Sonia off


    easily.


    Meanwhile, at Northdale Youth Apartment.


    As soon as Sonia opened the door, a lively noise emanated from inside.


    She hesitated for a moment, then furrowed her brows, looking at the rtives sitting in the living


    room.


    "Oh, Sonia is back. Indeed, such a beautiful girl. No wonder she found such a good match."


    Sonia stiffened, looking at the woman sitting in the middle, "Mom, why is Aunt Jocelyn here?"


    Sonia''s mother, Joan, was dissatisfied with Sonia''s words and gave her a stern look. "Watch your


    words. Aunt Jocelyn came all the way to see you. By the way, invite Alex too. We''ll have dinner


    together tonight. Aunt Jocelyn has something to ask for his help this time!"Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.
