The Wrong Woman Chapter 939
"But…" Candice hesitated.Elio nervously asked, "But what?"Candice's face grew even redder and her body became warmer. She shyly rested her head on his chest and said, "I'm afraid of getting pregnant before marriage."Elio couldn't help but laugh. He just tightly held her in his arms.She looked so shy revealing it that it made Elio feel a bit embarrassed too.They just hugged each other quietly for a while without saying anything.After a moment, they sat on the sofa. As Candice nestled in Elio's arms, she browsed her phone to order takeout.Since neither of them could cook and it was too late to ask the chef to come over, they decided to make do with something simple.Elio wanted to order from a highly-rated restaurant, but Candice refused.Growing up, her family had strictly controlled her diet and didn't let her eat any food that was unhealthy.Elio was also the same.Candice was worried that Elio might be as strict as her family, so she asked cautiously, "Should we hav

Elio felt increasingly pleased watching Candice's satisfied expression.He originally didn't intend to have dinner, but now with Candice's company, he had an appetite to eat.They drank beer, ate fried chicken, and had a barbecue together.After two cans of beer, Candice was already tipsy, making her eyes glazed and her speech incoherent.Elio was used to strong liquor, so these beers had no effect on him.He walked over to her and carried her upstairs.As Candice caressed his head, she murmured, "Elio, from now on, I'll protect you. I won't let anyone hurt you."Elio smiled wryly. He said, "Candice, you shouldn't drink. Don't drink anymore."Leaning against his shoulder, she murmured, "Elio, why don't you like me?"Elio gently placed her on the master bedroom's large bed. After removing her shoes, he covered her with a blanket. He responded to her drunken words, "I do like you."With her eyes closed, Candice pouted as if about to cry. She asked, "Why don't you like me?"Eli

When Candice shifted in her sleep, a sharp tug on her hair jolted her awake. Wincing in pain, she let out a whimper. As her eyes fluttered open, she realized she was in Elio's embrace. Both of them nestled together under the blankets, skin against skin.Her cry stirred Elio awake. He looked at her with bleary eyes, his voice gentle yet tinged with concern as he asked, "Candice, what's wrong?"Candice quickly pulled the blanket closer to her chest, embarrassment flooding her cheeks as she responded, "You're lying on my hair."Elio immediately lifted his arm to free her.Candice scooted away from his embrace, feeling bashful as her eyes darted around the room. She couldn't help but steal a glance at his well-defined abs. With a soft voice, she asked, "How did I end up in your room?"Elio offered a faint smile. "This is your room, too."Candice scratched her head, her recollection of the previous night was hazy. She vaguely remembered having a few drinks before everything went dark.
The Wrong Woman Chapter 942
The world around Candice and Elio faded as they surrendered to their passion in bed. On the first day of living together, they took the day off from work. They made love in the morning, and again after lunch in the study.Exhausted, they cuddled and drifted off into a nap. As dusk fell, Candice had just stepped out of the shower when Elio drew her back to the bed. Their passionate encounter stretched late into the night. Much like any couple enraptured by love, their moments together were wild, unrestrained, and brimming with passion. They experienced an unparalleled sense of release both physically and emotionally.Perhaps due to oversleeping, Candice awoke in the middle of the night. She reached for her phone, only to find it turned off. This explained why she hadn't received any calls all day. She had assumed her family simply wasn't worried about her.Upon powering the phone back on, she was greeted by dozens of missed calls—all from Mervyn—and a slew of messages. Among them w

Elio remained silent as he wrapped his arms around Candice's shoulders and pulled her close. He gazed up at the night sky, trying to calm the anxiety and unease within him by feeling the comforting warmth of her presence in his arms.His apparent generosity was nothing more than a façade, and his understanding was just an act. Deep down, he despised seeing Candice interact with Mervyn.Even though their relationship was purely platonic, Elio was overwhelmed by jealousy and bitterness so intense it drove him to madness. He simply couldn't stand it.Yet, Elio chose to keep this side of himself hidden from Candice, not wanting to reveal how petty and jealous he could be. He believed it was best to conceal his flaws until after they were married to avoid complications. …It was a bright, sunny morning when Mervyn arrived. Candice and Elio were walking to the front yard of the villa when they saw him approaching.The two men exchanged no greetings. Their hostile glances were like a s

Candice was utterly speechless. She leaned back in her seat, turned her gaze out of the car window, and ceased her questions about their destination.An hour later, the car turned into the driveway of an upscale neighborhood and halted in front of a luxurious high-rise apartment building. Mervyn stepped out first and led Candice through the community grounds, eventually ascending to a higher floor using an elevator.Candice's curiosity grew throughout the journey.Mervyn brought her into a lavishly decorated apartment. Her heart sank as soon as she saw the owner of the house. Mervyn had introduced her to Josie's aunt, Fenna.Fenna greeted them politely with a warm smile and invited them to sit. Shortly after, she signaled to a maid to bring over some refreshments.Candice mustered a strained smile, struggling to maintain politeness while harboring a desire to throttle Mervyn. Meeting Fenna was something she had never anticipated.After exchanging some pleasantries, Fenna cut to

Candice couldn't resist her curiosity. "I bet there are more diary entries besides this one. Where are they? I'd like to see them as well.""The rest are irrelevant and none of your concern. Focus on this page alone," Fenna replied with a stern tone.Candice gave a faint smile as she set down the documents, asking, "Is there anything more?"Irritated, Mervyn snapped, "Aren't these enough?"Candice shook her head. "No."Taken aback, Mervyn and Fenna exchanged a look of surprise.Candice smiled contentedly. "I'm really curious about when Elio started feeling this way about me. He wants us to have children together—surely that means he likes me a lot, right?"Enraged, Mervyn jabbed her head. "You're such a hopeless romantic! He has been plotting against you since high school—blocking your college applications, stopping you from studying abroad, and messing with those guys around you. I'm a victim, too!""How have you been a victim?" Candice asked.With his hands on his hips, Merv

Candice was in love with Elio?Just moments ago, Fenna had attempted to reveal Elio's true character to Candice. She portrayed him as intimidating and creepy, hoping it would convince Candice to leave him. Ironically, her efforts seemed to have the opposite effect.Fenna looked at Mervyn and thought he was an absolute fool. He had actually told her that Candice didn't have feelings for Elio and was merely being deceived by him.Mervyn slapped his forehead and gave a bitter smile. He slumped back onto the couch, too defeated to continue the argument.Candice turned to Fenna. "Ms. Hudson, is Josie aware of what kind of person Elio really is?"Fenna gave an awkward smile. "Of course, she knows. But she's smart enough not to get involved with someone as creepy as him.""That's reassuring," Candice replied. "A man as creepy as Elio shouldn't be around other women. He should stay with me."Mervyn couldn't contain himself any longer. "Candice!" he exclaimed.Candice jumped, her eyes w
