Finally, Alex let her go when she was almost out of breath.

But it was only for a moment before he pulled her into another embrace.

That night, Alex was wild and even suggested doing it right in the car. But Candice stopped him,

and he relented.

Candice was thoroughly bullied later on. Her eyes were red, and her lips had wounds from being

bitten harshly.

In Alex’s embrace, she asked hoarsely, “Lex, what’s gotten into you?”

Alex remained silent.

Candice furrowed her brow, looking up at him. However, all she could see was the taut line of his

jaw.

In the gloomy night, his voice carried an indescribable chill.

“Cici, I haven’t been ruthless enough to myself, so I’ve ended up where he is.”

He closed his eyes, his Adam’s apple bobbing. “Cici, can you givea little more time?”

At that time, Candice didn’t understand what Alex meant by his words. It was only until later, when

more and more people surrounded him, that she kept hearing the words in her mind.

Give him a little more time.

When she woke up, Candice’s forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat. She sat up as she felt

her heart beating furiously.

She didn’t know why she dreamt about this incident. It was probably because Alex mentioned it again

in the afternoon, which prompted her memory.

But in the dream, Alex had called her “Cici“. Now that she thought about it, Candice felt like she

couldn’t breathe.

It had been a long tsince someone called her that. More accurately, there were only two people

who would call her that.

Cici was considered to be Candice’s childhood nickname. When she was learning to write, she couldn’t

spell properly, and she felt distressed every tshe had to write her name.

So, one day, she asked her parents why her nwasn’t that, which was simpler and easier to

write.

At that time, Henry was still a good father. He held her and said, “Alright, from now on, Daddy will

call you Cici. Cici Renault, Daddy’s most precious treasure!”

Later on, when Henry divorced Yvonne, Candice kept this to herself and didn’t tell anyone. It wasn’t

until that twhen Alex went with her to visit Joe that Joe accidentally let it slip.

But after that incident, Alex had always preferred to call her Cici.

Memories, jumbled and fierce, kept flooding Candice’s mind. She sat on the bed for a while until she

heard a knock on the door.

Rubbing her temples, she went to open the door and saw Hanley standing outside with a glass of juice.

“Did you have a good sleep?” he asked.

Candice’s temples still hurt. “It was fine. Did you need something?”

“Ryan and the others went to the orchard a few days ago to pick sfresh fruits. We just squeezed

the juice. Here’s a glass for you.”

Hanley looked at her uneasy complexion and the cold sweat on her forehead. He reached out, pushing

aside sof her disheveled hair behind her ear.

He pursed his lips and spoke softly, “Did you have a nightmare?”

Candice was momentarily taken aback, then belatedly noticed Hanley’s action. She instinctively moved

back a bit.

Her reaction was a bit exaggerated, and Candice felt embarrassed about it. She furrowed her brows

and looked at Hanley, who calmly withdrew his hand and chuckled softly.

“Did I overstep? Sorry about that.”

Candice took the juice from him and said softly, “Sorry, I’m just not used to people suddenly touching

me.”

Hanley seemed like he wanted to say something else, but Candice’s phone suddenly rang. She

nodded at Hanley in relief and returned to her room to answer the call.

As Hanley watched her retreating figure, he lowered his head and turned to leave.

However, he heard a crashing sound coming from the room before he even stepped away from the

door…!
