Chapter 600

Chapter 600:
Just as anxiety clouded her mind, she noticed a slim gap forming in the door of the house.
A chill ran down her spine, and beads of cold sweat formed on her forehead.
How was this possible? She hadn’t entered through the door at all, so why was it now ajar?
Unless…
At that moment, a low voice resonated from behind her.
“I was just pondering where to find you, and here you are, presenting yourself to me! Shall I address you as Candice or Candy?”
Candice’s scalp prickled, her lips quivered, and her entire body shivered with icy dread. It was Corless!
Candice turned around, staring at Corless, who was gradually walking toward her. She didn’t expect to run into him at the resort. How was that even possible?
Even if Corless knew she was coming to Wenkin to investigate, she had hardly stopped to rest from the moment she got off the plane to the moment she reached the resort, so there was no way he could have followed her there.
There could only be one explanation.
Corless came to destroy the evidence. She knew it. There must be evidence in the resort’s sample villa. She just hadn’t found it yet. However, it must be somewhere in the villa, undestroyed. She had been upstairs the entire time but hadn’t heard any noise.
Corless must have just arrived.
Candice narrowed her eyes at him and raised her guard.
She was in a dangerous situation, but it was also an opportunity. Meanwhile, Corless was scanning her greedily as if inspecting his prey.
“You’re smart. I didn’t expect you would know where to go to get the evidence,” he murmured.

His eyes widened in amazement, and he continued, “Beautiful, so beautiful. You’re good-looking and have a sexy figure. No wonder Milton is hooked on you. You’re so attractive. I tried to recall what you looked like back in school. I remember you were always wearing black-framed glasses, and you didn’t bother tying your hair. So, you were trying to hide your beauty then? I never imagined you could be so beautiful now. If I had known, I would have wooed you in junior high. Then Milton wouldn’t have a chance with you now.”
Candice felt sick and disgusted by his words.
She took a step back, thinking about her next move.
She looked around, trying to find something that could protect her.
“Stop looking. This is where I play with women all year round. Why would I leave anything here for women to use to protect themselves?” Corless scoffed, exposing Candice’s intention.
Candice bit her lip uneasily.
Although she had learned Taekwondo, her skills might not be enough to defend herself against Corless.
