Chapter 125

Sonia’s face instantly turned pale as she looked at Helen, stunned.

From the afternoon when she met Helen, she seemed to have mostly ignored her. At first, she thought

it was just because Helen was a little cold. She didn’t expect Helen to act against her at such a time.

But Candice was still here and Sonia wasn’t willing to lose face in front of her, so she forced herself to

smile and said, “I just want to help.”

However, it seemed like Helen had completely ignored how pitiful she was. Instead, Helen raised her

chin slightly and, with a scornful look, gazed on Sonia like she was an object waiting to be appraised.

Sonia almost couldn’t handle it after Helen looked at her like that, but she forced herself to straighten

her back, to receive Helen’s judging gaze.

But she almost couldn’t hold her smile anymore, and all she could do was to quietly call out, “Aunt

Helen…”

“Aunt Helen?” Helen repeated how Sonia addressed her before taking the slip in her hand. With a

snort, she said, “As expected of a lowborn. They just don’t know where the line is.”

The disdain in Helen’s voice was too obvious. The color on Sonia’s face immediately washed away, as

if she had suffered greatly.

Candice didn’t react too much about what had happened. Well, it had little to do with her in the first

place.

With the report in her hand, she went and looked for the doctor.

The doctor read the report and nodded, saying that her grandfather was recovering well. He also told

her a few more things that she had to be aware of..

Only when she came back to the ward did she notice Jackson was back again and was chatting with

her grandpa. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Candice had gotten used to it already since Jackson had been spending a lot of time in the hospital the

past few days.

Joe chatted with him happily because of how scholarly he looked.

When Jackson saw Candice come in, he said with a smile, “Your grandpa recovered well.”

“Yeah.” Candice nodded. She then asked, “When did you come over?”

“I just got here,” Jackson said. He then reminded her, “Marc’s birthday is tonight. He said he sent you a

message, but you didn’t reply, so he asked me to come look.”

Candice gave it a thought and remembered that Marc did tell her about his birthday party.

She nodded. “I forgot about it because I’ve been too busy for the past few days.”

When Joe heard their conversation and knew that she had something going on, he quickly waved his

hand and

said he was tired. He then told Candice to take care of her business.

Without a choice, Candice left together with Jackson after checking his medicine.

Marc’s neighborhood was close to the countryside. It was quite a long drive there.

When they went past a shopping mall, Candice stopped and bought a gift for Marc.

Jackson gave it a look and said, “You really did learn something from Hanley.”

Candice looked at him and asked, “What?”

Jackson looked at the fountain pen in her hand and explained, “Every time Hanley buys a gift for

someone, it’s always a fountain pen, regardless of if it’s a guy or girl.”

The only reason Candice bought a fountain pen was because she was not that familiar with Marc. She

didn‘ know what to buy him. That was why she chose a fountain pen, which would go well with anyone.

But she didn’t think that she would hear about Hanley’s acts. She earnestly said, “Fountain pens are

quite good. They’re very practical.”

By the time they reached the Freeman household, the skies had only just darkened. Marc and a few

others

were preparing their barbecue in the yard.

Candice walked over and gave him the wrapped gift she was holding and said, “Happy birthday.”

Marc didn’t expect Candice to buy him a gift and only reacted after a while.
