Candice froze.

He clearly said he’d been "obsessing over it," but to her ears, it sounded more like… he’d been missing her.

Her cheeks flushed red.

“Uh… thank you for your concern, Mr. Clemens.”

“I care about all my subordinates.”

Charlie’s expression was calm and composed.

Jerry blinked: All of them? Really?

The atmosphere suddenly became oddly awkward, a delicate tension filling the room…

In the end, it was Jerry who broke the silence, smiling as he continued discussing the factory issue.

“Miss Hale, you’re sharp—your guess was about eighty percent correct. Very impressive.”

“What’s the other twenty percent I got wrong?”

Candice asked curiously, eager to move past the weird moment.

“You mentioned the two ghost workers—well, they really were ghosts. They’re dead. Edward killed them.”

“They’re dead?”

Candice was stunned.

She had guessed they might be relatives or friends of Edward’s, but murder victims? That hadn’t crossed her mind.

Jerry nodded. “Crazy, right? It turned into a homici

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 235 So It’s You

    The knocking on the door continued.“Come in.”Outside, the butler entered, fumbling in the dark.In his haste, he knocked over a vase and stumbled, looking quite disheveled.He panted as he approached Belinda, “Something’s wrong. All the power’s been cut off, and there’s no response from the control room. The castle’s in chaos.”Belinda raised an eyebrow.She crossed her arms and coldly sneered, “What’s all the panic for? No lights, but we have candles. Light the candles.”The butler hesitated, “...The candles are gone, even the ones on the candelabras have been taken. Everything’s been taken!”Belinda’s eyebrows furrowed in curiosity.She looked at the butler, then suddenly burst into laughter.That laugh carried a sense of helplessness toward the foolish people.“Alright, figure out a way to restore the power as quickly as possible. Go now.” She waved her hand.The butler, still a bit confused by her response, replied, “...Yes, ma’am.”He retreated, still puzzled, wondering why Bel

    Candice: "…"Sister, you're truly more dangerous than a tiger!Evelyn affectionately wrapped her arm around Candice, her red lips whispering in her ear, "Don’t worry, I’m amazing. I can take on ten of them."Charlie’s cold and handsome face darkened, "Evelyn, let her go."Evelyn raised her hands in surrender and smiled, "Charlie, you’re really too stingy. Can’t I just have a little chat with Candice?"Charlie ignored her."Candice, come here." He waved at Candice and then warned Dick, "Keep your people in check."Dick’s face grew slightly awkward.He glanced at his companion, pulling her aside to whisper at her.Candice walked over to Charlie.She glanced at the three people over there, thoughtful.Jerry stealthily came over, lowering his voice and slightly uneasy, "Candice, don’t you feel like... like someone’s been watching us?"Candice quietly circled her arm around his and whispered back, "It’s that woman who fell."Jerry: "…What!"He was so frightened, he grabbed her arm.Just wh

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 233 Gradually Understanding

    Candice’s heart raced for a moment.The next second, the cursed Japanese woman’s ghostly face appeared before her eyes.Ugh, forget it. She became the island’s owner. Who knows, that thing might end up coming home with her.“Although I don’t like this island, the thing you gave me, I’ll definitely... resell it at a good price.” She said, holding his hand with sincerity.“...”Charlie remained silent.Nearby, Evelyn teased, “Charlie, don’t get too confident. Maybe Vance and I will be the ones to find it first?”Charlie shot her a glance. “Maybe?” He smiled faintly. “Evelyn, don’t be so self-deprecating.”Evelyn was at a loss for words.Rex and Jerry also joined in, declaring that they would win for sure.The atmosphere lightened, as if they were truly immersed in a treasure hunt for the island.After a short while, Belinda handed each guest a map and a clue.“The activity will begin in twenty minutes. Good luck! I’ll be waiting for the winner on the third floor in the first room to put

    At the 9 o’clock direction.The Japanese wealthy woman, with an elegant and humble smile, waved at her.Yes, it was her.The same woman who had knocked on their door earlier and whom Candice had clearly seen falling from the upper floor.A chill rose from the soles of her feet."You... you... quickly, look, look..."Candice tugged at Charlie’s arm.The next moment, her face was turned towards him. Charlie stared at her lips, "What happened to your tongue?"Candice desperately tried to look away, tilting her eyes to the side."Didn’t you see it?"Charlie glanced in the direction she was looking and then politely nodded toward it with a faint smile before calmly turning back, "I saw it, so what?""..."Wait, isn’t he way too calm?!Is this okay?Is this even normal?Candice wasn’t sure if she was too frightened or if Charlie was too bold. "That woman... didn’t she already..." She gestured as if something had fallen in a parabola.Charlie furrowed his brows slightly.After a moment, he c

  • Too Late to Regret   Chapter 231 A Collective Trance

    His soft lips kissed along her waist and up to her ear.His strength was overwhelming.And he was so into it, like a starving wolf. No matter how much she tried to resist, it was useless. His large hands roamed freely, and her gown was about to be torn off...“Charlie, snap out of it!”This wasn’t normal.Too abnormal.Charlie was a man of great self-control. Even if he had desires, he wouldn’t lose his mind like this, as though possessed.She tried to stop him for a long time, but it was no use!Charlie, the hungry wolf, wasn’t satisfied with just the back. He flipped her over.Candice’s dress, already ridiculously revealing, now offered no coverage at all. To the hungry wolf, she was like a steaming, sweet dessert.“...I really might resort to violence!”She scratched him with her nails.The result?It was a disaster.The hungry wolf was even more excited, pinning her wrist down and showering her with kisses.Candice: ...?!No, I’m not rewarding you!They struggled for a while, her

  • 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
