Candice sneered.

“His mother doesn’t like me at all. She’s looking for a rich girl, meaning she still expects a match based on social standing. Let’s say my suspicion is true, and she knows that person is me, do you think she would be happy to accept me? Don’t be naïve. It would just make her more conflicted. She’d probably even think I’m scheming—knowing she’d be at the ball, I’d intentionally wait by the entrance to ‘bump’ into her.”

“...I say, Candice, can’t you think more positively?” Sophia thought her friend was being too pessimistic. “If it really is you, maybe she’ll change her mind and stop blocking you from big Mr. Clemens.”

“The biases in people’s hearts are like a mountain. If they could be so easily changed, Caroline would have accepted me a long time ago.” Candice’s expression was cold.

Sophia had no words.

Yes, Candice married Kyle, dedicating herself to the Jackson family and Aureate, balancing both family and career. As a daughter-in-law, there was no flaw to be found,

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 280 The Performance Was Ruined

    Everyone: "........."Some people were trying to hold in their laughter, while others couldn’t hold back and were already laughing. Some children were doing their best to stay composed... and then there was someone who was about to kill someone.Denise’s pitch-black eyes looked like two hellish gates blowing cold winds.She glared at Rex and smiled, her expression chilling. "What did you say?"Rex didn’t flinch under her gaze. Looking somewhat embarrassed, he scratched his head and explained to Denise, who was barely holding her composure, "I’m not too familiar with the young master’s phone. I thought I pressed the right button earlier, sorry. How about you try crying again?"Denise: "......"Charlie furrowed his brows and scolded Rex, "If you don’t know how to use it, ask me! How can you ask Mrs. Lawrence to cry again? She worked so hard to build up her emotions and cried so perfectly. Do you think repeating it will have the same effect?"Rex lowered his head. "I’m sorry, young maste

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 279 It Really was something

    Beatrice was still fuming when she heard this sentence, and turned to look at Candice. She frowned, not fully understanding.Denise’s eyes, heavy with sorrow, hid a cold, ghostly gleam beneath. "Mrs. Lawrence is very perceptive. If Aunt doesn’t relent, then both grandmothers will say that you are being too aggressive," Candice’s voice was soft and calm, her smile as sweet as melting toffee. "Just give her a chance to show her sincerity. However..."She glanced at Denise with some concern. "Mrs. Lawrence is only apologizing to the Lawrence family matriarch. If the Clemens family matriarch doesn’t show some form of response, the two families may develop a rift. So, how about this: let Clemens madam help you record a video to bring back. I suggest that you kneel before the Buddha and confess your sins. That would have a much better effect. It will definitely heal the rift between the two families once and for all."Everyone in the courtyard was stunned. "...!!"Kneel before the Buddha an

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 278 Please Apologize

    Beatrice was already frustrated, and now there was someone else making her even more upset... Who wants to get involved with the Lawrence family? If they want to deal with them, let them deal with it themselves!Just as she was struggling to figure out what to say, two new incense visitors arrived.The atmosphere, already tense, shifted as everyone turned to look at the newcomers. Seeing who had arrived, they all wondered: Is today the day this ancient temple will be torn apart?The newcomers were Kyle and Caroline.Kyle couldn’t stay in the lower temple anymore. Just as he was about to head up the mountain, Caroline suddenly appeared, asking why he had come to this place with Candice. Before he could explain much, he was brought along.The mother and son both had their own thoughts.They hadn’t yet discussed the child issue.When Caroline saw so many people, she was momentarily stunned. She had interacted with Beatrice and Denise at the ball, but that had all been under disguise, and

    Denise took a sip of tea.Her posture was elegant, but there was a hidden cold fierceness in her eyes. “You must have faith. Beatrice doesn’t dislike you, she dislikes me. Besides, Jin Hua is the eldest granddaughter of the Lawrence family, and the old lady favors her. She’s even willing to arrange a marriage with the Clemens family. The feedback from Old Madam Clemens has been quite positive. Beatrice may act tough in front of us, but she wouldn't dare defy her in front of her mother-in-law.”“Mm.”Hearing Denise’s words, Sarah felt a little more at ease.Indeed, in families like theirs, it didn’t matter who you dated before marriage. When it came to the actual marriage, it was all about family background first and personal compatibility second. There were many couples who had no feelings for each other after years of marriage, but none of that mattered when it came to ensuring the prosperity of the family line.The old lady had specifically arranged for them to meet at the temple, j

    "Miss Hale...!!"Those three words, in this particular moment, were like a nuclear bomb.Beatrice froze in place.The group of eight: “…”Under the scorching heat, the sun outside the pavilion was roasting the trees along the road, while cicadas screamed in a frenzied manner. Meanwhile, their space seemed to have been frozen in time.No one spoke.No one moved.Marlene was still holding on to her previous playful expression.They stood in silence for an unknown amount of time.Charlie was the first to snap back to reality.This was a situation only he could deal with. He calmly spoke, “Mom.”“Don’t talk to her, let’s go.”Suddenly, Beatrice spoke up, taking steps to leave the pavilion, not even bothered by the glaring sun.Candice: “...”She glanced at Charlie.The others silently exchanged glances.“Let’s go. The monk coming from that direction should be here to take us,” Charlie quickly deflected the situation, not wanting to dwell on it.He pulled Candice out of the pavilion.The o

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 275 Enemies Meet

    Candice sat across from her, unable to see the cable car behind them.But she didn’t need to guess; she already knew who it was.Kyle, of course.Who else could it be following them other than this man, who seemed so idle lately?“Hmm, that woman... she looks familiar.”Marlene stared out the window, deep in thought.A woman?Candice was surprised inside. How could it be a woman?Their group of nine had split into three cable cars.Charlie, his brother, and their mother took the first one because Clemens’s mother was afraid of heights and clung to both her sons’ arms.Sophia, Bianca, and Marlene rode together.She and Marlene, along with Rex, were in another.At this moment, the view of the front cable car was blocked by the one behind, and Marlene, sitting across from them, had seen the people in the car behind.Candice curiously looked back.Rex followed her lead and turned around as well.Then they saw the woman who sent a chill down Candice’s spine, while Rex instinctively went on
