Chapter 0284

Jessica looked at Candice’s Indifferent appearance, and Inwardly, she knew that claiming not to be

moved would be untrue.

What she had said wasn’t a lle either. When Alex had first brought Candice to meet her, Jessica could

sense that he genuinely liked this girl.

Not to mention it was the first the had brought a girl home, and he was very protective of her

too.

Alex had grown up almost always by her side, mainly due to the strained relationship between Helen

and Daniel.

In Jessica’s impression, he used to be indifferent to everything. She used to worry that he might

becantisocial or emotionally incompetent in the future.

It wasn’t until Alex hesitated and asked her if he could bring a friend over that she was left

surprised.

After all, she had never seen him ask her such a thing from childhood to adulthood.

At first, Jessica didn’t even consider that it could be a girl; she thought it might be one of Alex’s

classmates or friends.

To be frank, in a certain sense, Alex’s relationship with Jessica was more like that of a mother

and son. Even when he took over Aether Corporation initially, he had consulted her.

However, what truly left an impression of Candice on Jessica was because of Helen.

Due to Daniel’s influence, Helen had always looked down on women from ordinary backgrounds.

She had once tried to mock Candice, intending to belittle her for her modest family background.

However, before she could proceed, Alex had intervened.

The mother and son had a heated argument, which turned the situation quite ugly.

Jessica had observed from the sidelines, and it was evident that Alex was openly siding with

Candice.

Later, when she followed her husband to the coastal area, she becless informed about the

affairs in Dorrington City. Occasionally, during phone calls, she would hear Alex casually mention

Candice.

It wasn’t until a few days ago when she was chatting with Helen that she learned about the strained

relationship between Candice and Alex.

“Ms. Kane.” Candice’s voice interrupted Jessica’s thoughts. She snapped back to attention, and her

expression quickly resumed its professional demeanor.

Candice asked in a businesslike manner. “Do you have any other requirements? Under the

condition that both parties find it reasonable, we will do our best to meet the client’s demands.”

Jessica’s thoughts were redirected to work, and she no longer dwelled on Alex’s matters.

Although she was Alex’s godmother, she genuinely approached the conversation with sincerity.

making the discussion pleasant for both sides..

Afterward, she extended an invitation to Candice. “Would you like to have dinner together?”

Without hesitation, Candice directly declined. “I’m sorry, Ms. Kane, I have something to attend to

later.”

Jessica took it as a polite refusal, and as Candice’s phone happened to ring, she nodded at

Jessica and left.

The call was from Jackson. Candice had been closely monitoring the situation with Yvonne, and

she had enlisted his help.

She answered the phone, and Jackson’s voice immediately cthrough. “There’s ssurveillance

footage here you can cand check. But after consulting my lawyer friend, it’s difficult to prosecute

with just surveillance. It would be best to have chat recordings or witness

accusations.”

Recording conversations was not practical, and there were only Yvonne and Peach as potential

witnesses. Yvonne’s current narrative was still centered around the idea that Sonia was after

Candice.

*Looking at the darkening sky outside, Candice let out a sigh.

Jackson inquired, “Given the current situation, do you want to continue?”

Indeed, considering the present circumstances, even if they found evidence proving Sonia had contact

with Yvonne, it wouldn’t be considered substantial proof.

Standing by the roadside, amidst the bustling traffic and neon lights, it seemed like everything was

conveying a message–there was no need to pursue the matter as no one would care.

However…

She couldn’t accept that.

After a moment, Candice lowered her gaze and looked at her slender fingertips. In a resounding

voice, she said, “Sometimes, evidence doesn’t necessarily prove justice. It’s also about karma.”

“Jackson, believe it or not, if Sonia is truly what we suspect, she won’t have a good ending.”

Her stance was firm, and Jackson didn’t say much. He just sent her the address, asking her to cto

check the surveillance.

It was a restaurant in a shopping mall. Jackson mentioned that the owner was his college classmate,

who had allowed them access to the surveillance footage.

The footage was ordinary, just Sonia and Yvonne having a meal together. However, Yvonne’s behavior

was reserved, holding Peach carefully.

After quickly reviewing the few minutes of footage, Candice asked the owner, “Can I have a copy of this

segment?”

The owner exchanged glances with Jackson and readily agreed.

As Candice had been focusing on Burning Star Studio’s business lately, she decided to stay at the villa.

Jackson dropped her off before leaving.

Contact from Aether Corporation con its own, but not until two days later.

It was Sawyer who called, and his request was simple. He hoped Burning Star Stucould

provide security measures to prevent a recurrence of such incidents.

Certainly, all of these things needed to be discussed further.

Sawyer’s words were conveyed, and Candice relayed them to Hanley and the others.

Hanley raised an eyebrow slightly. “Ryan and I will go. You stay here.”

Candice was relieved as she didn’t want to go to Aether Corporation either.

However, she didn’t get to relax. On Wednesday morning. Sawyer’s call cin. “Candice, your

need to cto the meeting at Aether Corporation.”

Hearing this, she paused and questioned, “Haven’t Hanley and the others already gone?”

“Mr. Elysian said that you have been responsible for the matters between Aether Corporation and

Burning Star Studio. Now, with a sudden change in personnel, if there are any communication issues

regarding the details, it could be troublesome.”

She remained silent. It was indeed challenging to switch representatives midway through a business

deal. Hence, she agreed and went to Aether Corporation.

Candice was familiar with the way to Aether Corporation and went straight up to the conference

room.

Alex’s habit was to hold small or less important meetings in the small meeting room next to the

president’s office. This way, he could efficiently handle work without wasting time.

“Mr. Elysian, Mr. Baldwin and the others are asking when you will cover again.” Inside the

president’s office. Sawyer pushed the door open and whispered to Alex.

Alex had just received an international conference call. He glanced back at Sawyer upon hearing

his voice.

Sawyer immediately understood and took a couple of steps back, not disturbing him.

After finishing the call, Alex started sorting out documents with a cold expression. “Has everyone

gathered?”

Sawyer hesitated for a moment. “Ms. Renault should be on her way.”

“Notifywhen everything is ready.” Alex’s tone was cold, and his slender fingers casually flipped

through a document.

Sawyer felt somewhat awkward. “But Mr. Baldwin…”

Alex put down the document, and his dark eyes looked at him without any emotion. “Don’t make me

repeat myself.”

Sawyer could only retreat in defeat.

However, as soon as he left the office and was about to head to the conference room, he

encountered Candice coming up.

He immediately felt relieved and greeted her warmly, “You’re here!”
