Chapter 0455


    Listening to Henry''s words, Candice felt no emotions at all, nor was she surprised. She just asked


    Henry, "What if I say my child is his?"


    Henry fell silent, but soon regained his senses and said without hesitation, "Why can''t you heed my


    advice? Do you need to keep messing with these things? What do you think Alex is? What


    qualifications do you have to match him? Candice, let me tell you, one must have self-awareness


    and not fantasize about things that are notpatible with oneself. If your child is really Alex''s, then


    go have it aborted."


    Candice hung up.


    Henry said the words so easily, but in the end, there was only one meaning to it. She, Candice, had


    to make way for Nina no matter what.


    Candice thought she would be angry, but after hanging up on Henry, she felt bored.


    After being disappointed in someone, even if they act outrageously, she simply could no longer


    muster up any interest.


    Nadia and the others came out of the church shortly after. Hanley originally wanted to stay outside


    with Candice but had been dragged in by Ryan forcibly. He said that as the boss, he had to


    personally pray to ensure that Burning Star would have a smooth year.


    Hanley walked up to Candice, saw that she was a bit listless, and thought for a moment before


    taking out a candy from his bag and handing it to her. "Are you a bit sleepy from waiting?"


    The sun felt nice, and Candice was indeed a bit sleepy. She looked at the candy in Hanley''s hand,


    which had a familiar packaging. "Where did you buy this kind of candy? I didn''t see it in the


    supermarket before."


    Hanley raised an eyebrow. "Do you like it?"


    "It''s very tasty."


    Hanley''s originally indifferent expression turned into a smile. His eyes twinkled in the warm sun of


    Stugan City. "As long as you like it."


    -


    Setting aside the matter with Henry, they had a great time in Stugan City. And because of that


    phone call, Henry did not contact Candice again, so she rxed for a few days.


    However, she had been keeping an eye on the situation in the Sris stock market. After the New


    Year holiday, she was about to continue her journey to Sris.


    During this period, Candice heard something from Ka.


    It was about Sonia. After being released on medical parole, somehow the news of things between


    Xavier and her, as well as Quentin had been exposed.


    The story Candice heard was spreading in Dorrington. It was said that Sonia was kicking up a fuss


    to go to Sris to find someone but was being forcibly kept at home by her parents.


    The news and rumors were floating all around in Dorrington and Candice was brought up yet again


    asparison. This time, people were all on her side and spoke well of her.


    After listening to Ka''s words, Candice''s mood remained unchanged.

    The power of rumors was formidable. Weren''t the people now taking her side the very same ones


    who had used her in the past?


    As for Sonia''s medical parole, it had been orchestrated by Darius. Candice didn’t know what his


    purpose had been, however, so she could only wait and see.


    However, she was more concerned about another thing Ka mentioned. "Did you just say that


    Aether is preparing to acquire Horizon Holdings?"


    "Yes, there have been quite a few changes in thepany recently. I heard that Mr. Elysian now


    wants to return to headquarters, but it seems that there is some resistance over there."
