Love On Ice: Don’t Leave Me, My Charming Liar

Chapter 450: "Weren't you busy with wedding preparations?" Nyla exclaimed, surprised. With a casual toss of her suitcase, Candy settled comfortably onto the sofa. She calmly dropped a piece of news. "I ran away." Nyla leapt from her seat in shock upon hearing this. She had been aware of Candy's circumstances for years. Once again, Candy had fled from her wedding. "Are you aware of the risks? Your family won't just let this go," Nyla expressed her concern. With a relaxed shrug, Candy replied, "Well, it looks like I'm broke now.

Guess you're stuck looking after me." Her audaciousness brought a reluctant smile to Nyla's face. "I'll always be here for you, but what's your plan for dealing with your family's backlash?" Candy laughed off the concern. "Let them deal with their own drama. I'm finished with arranged marriages." Her decision was final. The day she was meant to choose her wedding gown, Candy learned her fiancé was in love with someone else. Decisive as ever, she booked a flight the moment she discovered the truth, leaving in the midst of wedding preparations.

She left her fiancé a note, saying, "Cowards don't belong in the limelight." It was an insult to him, as it was clear he would not be able to get the position of family head. Unconcerned with the fallout, Candy felt only the exhilaration of her newfound freedom. "Franklin mentioned that the operation is already in motion. Without a seasoned consultant like me, do you think you'll manage?" Candy said. Ł∆Ŧéѕŧ Ç₳þŧ€яŞ ¡n GałnøνεlŞ.çø₥ Nyla's lips twitched into a grin, playing along. "Absolutely not. I'd be lost without you." Candy shifted uncomfortably, avoiding Nyla's gaze.

It was unusual for someone as confident as Candy to display such timidity. Nyla couldn't help but chuckle at her friend's rare show of shyness. Candy instantly wiped the expression off her face and coldly said, "I want triple my usual rate, and you need to cover my living and meal expenses as well." "Sure, no problem." "Just making sure we're clear." Subsequently, Nyla made arrangements for Candy to stay at her place, though Candy seemed hesitant. "Don't expect me to babysit your little one." "Don't worry, I haven't forgotten you have work to do," Nyla replied, her voice laced with amusement.

Despite Candy's claims of indifference, she had always shown a deep fondness for Charlotte, especially after discovering the child was a girl. She had even filled a whole closet with dresses for her, long before Charlotte could wear any of them. Nyla felt fortunate to be surrounded by such people as her friends Bonnie and Candy, and her coworker Franklin. Her life seemed wonderfully complete. . . .
