Chapter 0296
Candice did not respond to old Mr. Elysian’s words. She brought the old man to a nearby restaurant and had lunch with him
before returning to the hospital. He barely ate anything during lunch and from his expression, his mood was not great either.
He had wanted to bring up Alex a couple of times, but Candice had calmly blocked him. Shawn was hesitant, but no longer
mentioned it.
The results of the check–up were still in the hospital. After having lunch, Candice brought Shawn
back.
As they passed by the emergency room, the doctors and nurses were busy and it was a little noisy. Candice didn’t look as they
passed, but the old man glanced inside.
Old Mr. Elysian’s results from the examination were not problematic, just that he was unaccustomed to the climate. Furthermore,
the time difference meant he was struggling to rest well. The doctor instructed him to return home, stroll a little more and rest
well.
Candice accepted the prescription the doctor handed over to her. “I’ll go and get the medicine first. Bruno, please bring Grandpa
over and wait for me.” The old man did not have much energy. so he nodded before leisurely following Bruno over.
Candice held the prescription and as she was about to hand the list over to the pharmacist, she heard a soft voice behind her.
“Lex, drawing blood hurts.”
A deep, cold voice comforted her. “Just this once.” It was Alex.

“But I’m still very scared. You know me.”
Candice paused and she lowered her gaze. She did not look around, acting as if she had not heard Sonia’s voice. She had no
idea that she was easily recognisable from behind.”
Sonia noticed Candice and came over. She just could not stand seeing Candice living better than she was, and she could not
stand how Candice always had a look as if Sonia was beneath her.
Since she started working in Aether, it had always been like that. Perhaps it was a woman’s sixth sense. From the first time she
saw Candice, she knew that she just could not get along with her. She had subconsciously rejected Candice. Especially when
she had heard others talking about the relationship between Candice and Alex in envious tones, she had felt even more
uncomfortable.
Why were some people so brilliant, as if all the good things in the world should fall on them?
But now, the glow on Candice had disappeared. More than that, Candice was not doing as well as she was now. After all, she
was now Alex’s girlfriend.
Sonia’s emotions moved slightly, and she rubbed against Alex’s arm affectionately, then walked. towards Candice. “Candice,
what a coincidence,”
Candice turned around without any expression on her face. Her gaze fell on Sonia’s other hand, which was held up high, with a
piece of cotton wool on it.
Her other hand was firmly pressed against Alex’s body. Alex’s black eyes were cold and deep, and his face was indifferent.

Candice’s gaze swept across his face and she said. “There are eight dispensing counters. It’s quite a coincidence that you came
here specifically to queue.”
Sonia frowned. Her face also seemed to be pale, and she looked at Candice. “I just wanted to come over and say hello to you.”
Candice didn’t know whether Sonia was just trying to mingle and chat, or if she was trying to show off her relationship with Alex.
A hint of mockery flashed in Candice’s eyes. She looked at Sonia coldly and indifferently. “Are we very close? Is it worth you
coming to me specifically to say
hello?”
“I...” Sonia was unable to answer the question. She pointed where her blood had been drawn.”
Candice, I just came out of the emergency room. The doctor said I should avoid getting angry. I just saw you and wanted to say
hello to you. You don’t have to look at me like that. And you were just with old Mr. Elysian. Lex and I came over to ask about his
situation. After all, he is Lex’s grandfather.” The hint of concern and struggle appeared on her fair face, but the light in her eyes
could not be ignored. “Actually, you shouldn’t have been troubled about this today. If old Mr. Elysian is not feeling well, it should
be Lex and I who should come. Why should an outsider take. care of him? Besides, Candice, you are not even an employee of
Aether anymore.”
