She opened the message.

Jim had replied:

“On Friday, I’ll be accompanying the young master to meet a client at the hotel. Miss Hale, perhaps you could bring the suit then.”

Candice: “Huh?”

At this point, the number of question marks in her head could’ve burst right through her skull.

Charlie Clemens wants to see her again?

At a hotel, no less?

And not just any hotel—one so secluded you could scream murder and not a soul would hear.

What on earth was this Mr. Clemens trying to do?

Candice didn’t dare speculate.

It wasn’t that she was scared—well, maybe a little.

This opportunity had landed right in her lap, but she wasn’t bold enough to act on it.

She just couldn’t figure this man out.

She was here to build a career, not get entangled in something messier.

After thinking it over, she decided to take a page from his book and leave the message unanswered.

Down in the garage.

Jim sighed and slid his phone back into his pocket.

No one was forcing anything, but he had a hunch the young ma

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 230 The Magnetic Field Here Really Is Problematic!

    “It’s real, there are ghosts here.”Charlie said this seriously, adding weight to his words, his eyes mysterious and dark. “Maybe we’ll encounter many supernatural phenomena soon.”“……”Oh, shut up!Candice’s face was expressionless.Charlie rubbed her small face playfully, “Believe it or not, we’ll have a ghost knock on our door soon.”“...I believe you’re—”“Knock knock.”Before she could finish her sentence or even strike him, the door was suddenly knocked on.A woman’s voice came from outside.“Mr. Clemens~~~”The voice was trembling.Candice froze, her hand stopping mid-air as she was about to slap him. Her scalp tingled as she instinctively threw herself into his arms, clutching his waist tightly.What was going on?Was there really... a ghost?Her face pressed against his chest, and she held her breath, staring at the door. Her hands gripped the fabric of his shirt tightly.His heartbeat was steady, but hers was racing.“Mr. Clemens~~~ Save me~~~”The voice from outside now had

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 229 He Has Enough Yang Energy

    “It’s a buttercream cake.”“This looks good.”“Thank God, finally something edible!”The guests were nearly in tears.Since they arrived on the island, no one had eaten anything, and by now, everyone was getting quite hungry. Furthermore, if they didn’t eat now, they would have to wait until tomorrow afternoon to leave, and who knew if the breakfast and dinner tomorrow would also feature dark cuisine. But tonight, they were certainly going to be hungry.Now, they understood the value of this dessert!The servants brought out individual servings of buttercream sponge cake to each guest.The transparent crystal glass bowls were layered with fresh fruit, cream, sponge cake, and jam. Just the sight of it was a delight, and the aroma was even more tempting— the scent of milk mixed with fruit, making everyone’s fingers itch to dig in.Candice particularly loved these little cakes.The other guests also began tasting the dessert.She picked up her spoon, took a small bite, then hesitated.

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 228 The Terrifying Banquet

    “I’m Belinda. I apologize for keeping you all waiting,” the woman introduced herself as she walked to the center of the banquet hall.The guests quickly gathered around.The closer they got, the stronger the unsettling feeling became.Her features were strikingly sharp, high cheekbones, deep-set eyes, an aristocratic nose, and full lips—skin so flawless that it seemed unreal, perfect... like a mannequin.Her skin was unnaturally pale, devoid of even the faintest hint of pores, and when she smiled, her lips seemed unnaturally stiff, as if botox had been overdone.This, combined with her stunning face, gave off a deeply eerie aura.And it wasn’t just Charlie and Candice who felt this unease—other guests also sensed the same thing.The castle itself already had an eerie, mysterious aura, and now, with this strange woman as the castle’s owner...Some guests furrowed their brows, some looked suspicious, some had fearful expressions, but most remained calm as if they didn’t feel anything st

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 227 Just Hit Me Instead

    Candice stood quietly, waiting for him to approach.She wasn’t afraid of his cold expression—who was he trying to intimidate?Jerry: Oh, God...Rex, excited, rushed forward as if he had just found his long-lost father. “Master Clemens, I’m here!”Charlie, with a stern face, looked as though he was ready to hit him.“What did I tell you?”Rex, unbothered, shrugged and spread out his black suit like a rebellious teenager. “If you’re angry, just hit me. I’m here anyway—go ahead, hit me.”Charlie furrowed his brows deeply, unable to do anything to this tough, thick-skinned brat.He looked away, his gaze filled with murderous intent, passing right over Candice and landing on Jerry, who was trying to hide behind her. “Get over here.”Jerry wanted to cry.I knew it! I knew this would happen!!He dared not approach. Instead, he tried to explain to Charlie from a distance, through Candice and Rex. “...I really tried to stop him! I couldn’t control him!”“Come here. I won’t hit you.”“...”Yeah

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 226 Reunion at the Banquet

    “No, really—you look amazing.”Vance walked up to Charlie, openly admiring his beauty. From his handsome face to his tall, upright figure—even his hair and hands didn’t escape his gaze.He looked like God’s masterpiece.Radiating a kind of irresistible allure, Vance couldn’t help but want to…He leaned in closer.Charlie raised a hand to block him, his expression stern. “Enough, Vance. We agreed to respect each other. Don’t cross the line.”“Sorry, I can’t help it sometimes.”“Try harder.”“I am trying.”“…If you push it, I will knock you out.” He flexed his wrist as he spoke.“…”Vance gave a sheepish smile and took a step back.Charlie walked over and sat down on the sofa.In his youth, he’d been clueless. By the time he realized his close friend was gay, he’d gone through a period of confusion and distance. But after they talked it out, he understood Vance had always been this way and wasn’t trying to force anything. They agreed to mutual respect.Friends remained friends.Though o

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 225 So Many Tricks

    In a small alley cafe, the three of them sat waiting after placing their coffee orders.Last night, they had "forced" Evelyn to reveal the true nature of the so-called networking event. After hearing the details, their determination to attend was more solidified. Well, okay, Jerry didn’t agree, but one arm couldn’t overpower two.Especially Rex's arm, which could probably strangle him with just half of it.From Evelyn's explanation, the event was organized by a business association.FG Society.An association mainly composed of top-tier businessmen.Although it's called a business association, its members were quite diverse—some with power, some with wealth, some with fame, and others with special talents. For example, various geniuses in different fields, like hackers, and even criminals—some borderline high-IQ dangerous individuals were also recruited.The association had a strict hierarchy, and the various levels of members created a kind of ecosystem.Exchanging interests, schemin
