Chapter 937
Mervyn’s eyes reddened with anger as he yelled at Candice, “Candice, can you wake up from your love-struck haze? Elio is not suitable for you, and you will regret this sooner or later!”
“Whether he’s suitable or not, I’ll judge for myself, but I’ll never regret it because this is my own choice,” Candice responded firmly.
Mervyn was heartbroken.
Back at the Morrison Residence, Candice left Mervyn alone in the living room and quickly went upstairs.
With nothing else to do, Mervyn went home.
That evening, Candice expressed her thoughts to her grandparents and parents.
“I want to move in with Elio.”
Her grandparents were against the idea, while Sienna and Daniel respected her decision.
Candice explained, “Elio and I have very little time together. If we don’t build a stronger bond before marriage, how can we maintain a long-lasting marriage?”
Her grandparents were not close-minded. They were just reluctant to let her go.
She continued, “Besides, Josie likes Elio. Her aunt has been trying to sabotage my relationship with him.”
Everyone was stunned. They asked, “Is it Fenna?”
Candice nodded. Then, they all looked at each other. They suddenly felt nervous about it.
They remembered how Fenna had once interfered in the relationship between Nathan and Wanda, so they all knew that her tactics were not ordinary. Sienna was the first to speak up, “I support you.”
Candice smiled happily and hugged Sienna. She said, “Thanks, Mom.”
…
The next evening, as the sun set and the sky turned red, a luxury car slowly drove into the villa’s front yard.
Sean opened the door for Elio.
Elio got out of the car and walked
into the villa, with Sean
behind. He asked, “Mr. Hof
need dinner arrangementsava
“No.”
you
“You ate very little during lunchtime, so you should eat something for dinner.”
Elio impatiently replied, “When did you become so nagging?”
Sean immediately shut his mouth.
Entering the villa, the lights were turned on. Elio took off his suit jacket then pulled off his tie and handed it to Sean.
Sean respectfully asked, “Is there anything else you need?”
After sitting down on the sofa, Elio murmured weakly, “No, you can leave now.”
“Okay, then…” Sean’s voice trailed off.
His gaze fixed on the woman who suddenly appeared behind the sofa. She silently reached out from behind Elio and covered his eyes. She then smiled lightly at Sean and signaled him to keep quiet.
Sean was shocked because he feared that Elio might throw her over his shoulder on reflex.
Elio was surprised by the hands that covered his eyes. He froze in place and his heart raced for some reason.
In his life, this had never happened
before. No one who was this cute,
childish, or playful had ever covered
his eyes
and asked him to guess
who it was. He had no one around
who would create such surprises for him.
He used to envy Jasper because Candice often did this to him.
Jasper would intentionally guess wrong to make Candice happy for a while.
Elio’s body tensed. He slowly reached up to feel the back of the hands over his eyes.
They were soft, delicate, and warm.
He could only hope it was Candice behind him. If it wasn’t her, anyone else would be thrown out. “Candice?” Elio guessed softly. He was very excited and nervous.
Sean was amazed because it was the first time he saw Elio play along with such a childish game.
