The Wrong Woman

Chapter 946

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 widening in surprise. "Why are you shouting my name like that?"This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Do you realize what you're saying? What happened to all the books you've read, the knowledge you've accumulated, and the education you've pursued over the years?

"And look at yourself now! You appear to be a complete fool, utterly blinded by your infatuation with Elio and losing all sense of right and wrong," Mervyn snapped.

Candice began to cry as Mervyn's words cut deep. Through her tears, she said, "How does loving someone make me a fool? Elio secretly took photos of me, imagined starting a family with me, and even drove away anyone else who was interested in me.

"He sabotaged my education plans and our plans to study abroad together. You see all his actions as terrifying and twisted, but I don't! I see a man who has loved me in secret for years.

"Yet, I was clueless all this time and I left him to suffer alone! I feel sorry and sad for him. What he did touched me deeply."

Fenna let out a snort. Unable to listen any longer, she left the living room.

Meanwhile, Mervyn clenched his fists as he struggled to find the right words.

Candice sniffled, wiped her tears, and said, If I had known he loved me, I would have told him how I felt years ago and we could have been together, instead of just starting now."

Mervyn's eyes turned bloodshot with rage. "He's been manipulating you from the start! What do you even find appealing about him? His deceitfulness?"

"Mervyn!" Candice snarled, her

patience finally worn thin. "If you get

another bad thing about him, our friendship is done." With that she grabbed her bag and left. Content

Mervyn rushed after her in desperation. He ended up dashing after her onto the main road. He grasped her arm, his demeanor softening as he chose his words carefully.

"Candice, I only want you to see his true character. Can you please take a moment to think about it, rather than acting impulsively?"

"Mervyn, I truly love Elio-more than I can say. Please support us if you value our friendship," Candice replied earnestly. "Candice "

"Enough. Yes, it's true he secretly

took photos of me, fantasized about me, manipulated situations, and even set traps to lure me in. None of these actions are right or honorable,

but they all stem from his love for me.

"I don't resent him for any of it. In fact, it only deepens my love for him. Do you get it?" Candice explained.

Overwhelmed with sorrow, Mervyn placed his hands on his hips and quietly gazed skyward.

Candice continued, "I was the one who proposed to him. I actually asked him to marry me. So, please stop conspiring with Josie to break up Elio and me."
