Chapter 0370


    "Maybe it''s blood congestion, and it didn''t react immediately. I remember E once hit her hand on


    the door, and it didn''t swell until the next day," Ang said. She looked at Candice''s hand,


    murmuring to herself while sharing some first aid methods.


    Halfway through, she suddenly sensed a cold and stern gaze on her. Ang paused and turned


    around to see Alex''s dark and deep eyes.


    She was smart so she immediately changed the subject and wore a pitiful and sad expression. "But


    I suggest you go to the hospital for a check-up, after all, nobody knows if there''s any damage to the


    bones.


    "But we have to rush back now, so we''ll trouble Mr. Elysian. Although Mr. Elysian is also injured, at


    least he''s a man, and it''s more convenient with someone apanying you." Ang spoke swiftly,


    grabbed her bag, and didn''t forget to bid farewell to her colleagues and Alex. "We''ll leave first. It''s


    better for you to go to the hospital for a thorough examination for this injury."

    After speaking, Ang didn''t linger. She left with her colleagues.


    Candice also wanted to leave, but Alex''s voice sounded. "Didn''t you hear what she said? Serious


    injuries can affect the bones."


    "I''ll go to the hospital for a check-up," Candice said.


    "Okay." Alex nodded, his voice deep, "Wait for me to change clothes."


    Candice looked back at him and exined, "I can go by myself."


    He had already stood up, looking down at her. His tone remained unchanged, "I said Sawyer is


    discussing thepensation."


    His implication was clear; he must apany her to the hospital.


    -


    They took another taxi to the hospital, and after a thorough examination, Candice was diagnosed


    with subcutaneous bleeding, nothing serious. But Alex forced her to undergo another full-body


    examination to ensure everything was fine before leaving.


    Candice held a stack of examination reports in her hand and asked Alex, "Should I give these


    reports to you or to Sawyer?"


    He lowered his gaze to her wrist, where besides bruising, there was some swelling, which looked


    quite rming.


    However, Candice was pregnant, and the doctor advised her to use ointments sparingly, so she


    didn''t apply any. Even when she was treating Alex''s wound, she had used cotton swabs.


    At first, when the symptoms hadn''t appeared, she didn''t feel ufortable. But now, she only felt a


    burning pain in her wrist, and the entire joint felt weak and powerless.


    However, the next moment, a hand reached out in front of her, and Alex directly took the report from


    her hand. "I''ll pass it on to Sawyer."


    Candice nodded, with no objection.


    -


    This time, when they returned to the hotel, Alex didn''t make her apany him, so Candice went


    back to her room by herself.


    But as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw a familiar figure rushing past the corner, looking


    somewhat familiar.


    She frowned and looked at it, but couldn''t remember who it was.


    Later, because of her hand injury, Candice had the hotel send dinner up directly in the evening.


    Before she could start eating, old Mr. Elysian called. He was extremely worried, "Oh my, what


    happened? How did you get into a car ident? Are you okay? Did you hurt anywhere? Do you


    feel ufortable anywhere?"


    Shawn bombarded her with a long string of questions, all full of concern.


    She answered them one by one, and finally heard him angrily say, "Whoever dares to drink and


    drive in broad daylight should be sentenced harshly. Fortunately, nothing happened to you guys. If


    something had happened, how would I have coped?


    "I heard you have a serious hand injury. Is it very inconvenient? Should I have Bruno buy a ne


    ticket toe over tonight? Grandpa can''t bear not seeing you and I’m worried."


    Candice was afraid that Shawn would impulsivelye to Sris. She hurriedly reassured him.


    "Don''t worry, I''ve already been to the hospital for a check-up, and there''s nothing wrong. I just need


    to rest quietly for a couple of days."


    Shawn obviously didn''t believe it, and his tone was still filled with worry, "They say it takes a


    hundred days for a muscle or bone injury to heal. Howe you only need to rest for two days?


    Candice, this is no joke. You have to take good care of yourself. If you feel ufortable or


    inconvenienced, just call Grandpa. I will definitely arrange everythingfortably for you."


    Listening to Shawn’s concern, Candice''s mood, which had been gloomy all day, eased somewhat.


    She patiently reassured the old man for a while before calming him down.


    "Okay, I won''te to Sris, but I''ll have someone bring dinner to you. If it''s inconvenient for you,


    just eat in the room."


    "I''ve already had the hotel send it to me."


    "What kind of nutrition can you get from hotel food? Eat what I arrange for you!"


    When Shawn was stubborn, no one could stop him. Candice was afraid he would mentioning


    to Sris again, so she had to agree quickly.


    But she didn''t expect that the dinner ordered by Shawn would be so sumptuous.


    In total, there were eight dishes, all of which were nourishing and health-preserving.


    She looked at the chicken broth among them, feeling both amused and exasperated.


    -


    The next morning, Candice''s hand looked even more rming than the night before. As soon as


    she got up, Hanley and Yana both called to ask about the car ident, and Candice replied to each


    one.


    When Candice arrived at the conference hall, Ang looked at her hand with pity. "Is your hand


    really okay? It looks so serious."


    With her injured, it was rather inconvenient. Fortunately, the course of the meeting didn''t require


    much note-taking.


    After the afternoon session ended, Ang approached her again, winking at her, "Wasn''t I


    particrly smart yesterday? Let me tell you, I may not have any other strengths, but I''m particrly


    good at reading people''s expressions."


    Candice was puzzled and asked, "What did you do yesterday?"


    Ang said, "I left with my colleagues yesterday! As soon as I received Mr. Elysian''s signal, I


    stopped being a third wheel, and I even created a romantic atmosphere for you two, right?"


    Her words were all over the ce, and Candice didn''t want to listen anymore.


    She packed up her things and prepared to go to Pearl Grand Hotel, where she had arranged to


    meet with Darius.


    Perhaps influenced by Alex, Candice felt heavy-hearted on the way to the hotel, as if she couldn''t


    breathe.


    However, unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at the entrance, she saw two figures tightly


    entwined.


    Henry and Hailey.


    There were several middle-aged men around them, almost every one of them holding a young girl


    who was about the same age as Hailey.


    From a distance, Candice could see that Henry''s hand was on Hailey''s waist, smiling with an air of


    self-satisfaction.


    Pearl Grand Hotel was luxurious and extravagant. Candice could naturally tell from Henry''s casual


    and familiar demeanor that he had long been ustomed to such ces.


    Having a meal at the hotel cost at least four figures.


    So whilst he had told Candice he’d had no choice but to stay in Sris due to difficulties that


    prevented him from returning to Dorrington City, he had been casually frequenting a luxurious ce


    like this enough to be familiar with it.
