Chapter 0164
“Who gave you the authority to take matters into your own hands?” It was not yet the end of the
workday, and Candice’s voice suddenly rose in her frustration.
Sonia stood there, at a loss for words. She spoke softly. “Mr. Matthias had already laren int initiative to
extend an olive branch to us. Candice, why are you unwilling to accept it? Her eyes were starting to
glaze with tears as she continued, her voice aggrieved and sad. “Candice, I know that you don’t trust
we can give it a try.”
The office had quieted down at Candice’s sudden outburst, and all heard what Sonia said clearly.
Though her words were tactful, their meaning was apparent. That Candice was deliberately targeting
her because she was jealous of Sonia.
Candice paused for a moment, then closed her eyes before speaking in a cold tone. “I am unable to
postpone the appointment with Mr. Clark. Since you’ve made plans with Mr. Matthias, go by yourself.”

designated to handle the liaison with Blue Artifact. If Candice ignored him the chances of Aether’s
cooperation with Blue Artifact would be almost impossible.
After all, compared to Aether, Conrad would naturally trust the opinions of his own people more.
Candice had originally intended to meet Conrad, but not at this moment and certainly not in this
manner.
Feeling irritated that she had let her frustration get to her, she coldly reprimanded Sonia. “If you have
nothing else to do, go prepare for the meeting with Mr. Matthias.”
Sonia appeared a little hesitant, but it quickly disappeared. She spoke gently to Candice. Candice,
since Mr. Elysian has entrustedto work on the Blue Artifact project with you, I will definitely not
disappoint your expectations. I will talk to Mr. Matthias properly.”
At that moment, Candice felt that while Sonia might not have learned much from Aether, she had
certainly improved her art of conversation.
However, Candice did not bother to say anything more. She had to visit her grandfather in the nursing
hand then meet Zane.

Today was the anniversary of her grandmother’s passing, and initially her grandfather wanted to pay a
visit to her resting place. However, because of Yvonne’s unexpected arrival and the ensuing
disturbance, the plans had to be postponed.
When Candice arrived at the nursing home, the caregiver was having dinner with Yvonne had visited in

With a slightly settled heart, Candice exchanged a few words with her grandfather and then hurried to
meet Zane.
Fortunately, the place she had arranged to meet Zane was not far. When she arrived, he had just

He looked at Candice and extended his hand. “Ms. Renault, sorry for the wait.”
A faint smile graced Candice’s face. “Mr. Clark, no need to be polite. I didn’t invite you out tonight
for business matters.”
Candice’s attitude was well–calibrated. Zane’s current indecisiveness was quite evident, clearly a
result of weighing the pros and cons. Moreover, Aether probably wasn’t high on his list of
priorities.
Candice understood that establishing a relationship with such a person required more than just
discussing work.
She smiled at him. “When I met a friend the day before yesterday, he mentioned wanting to collaborate
with Blue Artifact. He said he loved Blue Artifact’s intangible cultural heritage exhibition. However, when
tickets went on sale last month, he was overseas for work and couldn’t get one. So, I wanted to ask
you if there will be another intangible cultural heritage exhibition this year.” Her smile was gentle and
sincere. “My friend insisted that if there’s one in the second half of the year, he’ll clear his schedule to
attend.”
