My Mirror Image by Maybe Not (Candice And Alex’s) novel Chapter 563

Ellis didn't have any jet lag. She had slept a lot on the plane and had been asleep in Yana's car, so she was now full of energy. As soon as she heard the phone ringing, her attention was immediately drawn to it.

Candice answered the video call. Alex stood on the balcony, surrounded by darkness.

After a pause, she spoke first, "Is there something wrong that you're calling at this late hour?"

"Yeah, there is," he answered.

Candice looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

"I kinda miss you and Ellis," he said.

Before Candice could respond, Ellis on the side began to fidget.

The little girl was very clever now. As soon as she heard someone calling her, she immediately leaned over to take a look. She stared eagerly at Candice's phone and reached out to grab it.

Since Candice didn't know what to say to Alex, she simply handed the phone to Ellis. "I'm going to take a shower. Keep an eye on her."

Alex looked at her with a serious expression, but there was a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Okay."

Candice turned and left. She could hear Ellis chatting with Alex behind her, and Alex patiently accompanied her. The father and daughter seemed to get along harmoniously.

When Candice returned after washing up, she found Ellis had already fallen asleep on the bed, with the phone screen still lit beside her.

Candice was about to turn it off when Alex's voice came through, sounding magnetic and low. "Don't hang up."

Candice glanced at Ellis and went to the balcony with the phone. It was sunny on her side, and the weather was very nice today. Candice leaned against the railing, letting the breeze blow through her semi-dried hair.

Alex said, "It took me a while to coax her to sleep."

Candice asked, "How did you coax her?"

"I read her some Ecuni versions of Stray Bird's collection poems," he said, then looked at her for a moment before continuing, "Jet lag is quite exhausting. You can take the opportunity to rest a bit, or else she'll wake up and start fussing again."

At that moment, she realized that he had coaxed Ellis to sleep just to let her rest properly.

However, Candice was tired herself, so she decided to hang up and go to sleep. But she remembered about Sonia and decided to tell Alex. "I ran into Sonia at lunch. She's working as a waitress at a restaurant."

Alex frowned slightly.

Candice calmly said, "If you want to go find her, I can send you the address."
