Chapter 0126

He had just received the gift when Sieg’s voice rang. “Candice, you’re so considerate. As expected of

Aether’s

ex–best secretary,”

He emphasized the word “ex“, as if to remind Candice of something.

Candice gave him a lazy glance and said, “Looking at how worried you are about Aether, there are

probably people out there that would believeif I said that you’re Aether’s best secretary.”

Sieg choked. He had just wanted to say something when he heard Jackson say. “Are we barbecuing

tonight?”

Marc knew Jackson was trying to stop things from getting worse, and so he said, “Yeah, the weather’s

nice

lately, so we’re having a barbecue tonight and having sfun.”

Since the topic had been changed, Sieg couldn’t just change it back again. He clicked his tongue and

pulled open his collars before sitting on the sofa to the side.

Meanwhile, Candice would chat with Jackson and everyone once in a while.

Until a car stopped in front of the gate. Marc said with a smile, “Alex is finally here.”

Candice blinked. It was Marc’s birthday… She knew Alex would be coming.

Sonia cwith Alex. She had already changed her outfit. It was not the sone she wore in the

morning.

Candice glanced at her and stopped. She then grabbed a glass of juice and drank before hearing Sieg

ask

Alex, “Aren’t you supposed to be busy, and you couldn’t join us?”

Alex said, “I cover after I was done.”

Marc walked over and said, “Since you made tto cover, here’s a drink for you.”

“Are you hungry?” Candice raised her head when she heard Jackson’s gentle voice. She saw him

asking with

a smile, “You’ve been staring at this cake for a while now.”

Only then did Candice realize she was still standing next to the long table. And because she spaced

out, it looked like she was staring at the butter cake in front of her.

Jackson raised his eyebrow and said, “Just take it if you want.”

He had just said that when he heard Marc calling out to them. “Jackson, Candice, the grill is ready.”

They had prepared three grills, but Candice wasn’t really that interested in barbecuing. She walked

around

before finding an empty swing and sat down.

Hanley had added her into their studio’s Whatand she would receive messages every once in a

while.

Since Candice had little to do, she read their chat.

Suddenly, there was a shadow cast over her. Candice raised her head and saw Alex’s expressionless

face.

Candice gulped and asked, “What is it?”

Alex’s cedar scent got closer as he got nearer to her. His eyes stared right at her.

Candice frowned, wanting to say something. Then, she saw Alex extend his hand and grab a jacket

from behind her.

Alex let out a chuckle and asked with his cold voice, “What are you dodging?”

Candice knew that what she did just now could make her look like she was thinking too much,

She looked away, hiding the emotion in her eyes, and said, “I thought I was blocking you.”

Alex let out another laugh. “You cover with Jackson?”

Candice said, “You cover with Sonia too, right?”

And speak of the devil. Candice had just finished her words when Sonia approached them and held

Alex’s arm. “Lex, can you grill something for me? Sieg said they tasted good,”

She then dragged Alex over, not giving Candice even a glance.

It was probably because she still remembered what happened at the hospital earlier in the morning.

Candice didn’t mind the silence. However, as the host, Marc still dragged her over after looking around

for her.

He then said, “Everyone’s having fun over there. Why don’t you go over too?”

Marc was the birthday boy, and she didn’t want to shhim, so she walked over.

There were many people surrounding the grill. When Candice walked over, she could hear Sonia’s

cheerful laughter.
