Candice came out of the bathroom with a towel covering her body. She felt relief when the cold water applied to his head and suddenly his headache disappeared. He looked for something to wear in the closet. He put it on and put light makeup on his face. He carried his sling bag and went out of his room. He was about to go out the front door when his mommy stopped him.

"Where are you going?" her mother asked.

“At the office, Mommy,” Candice replied.

“Don’t you have a headache anymore? Besides, you haven’t eaten yet.” Her mother replied.

“I’m not hungry yet. Maybe I’ll grab some food later at the office,” she replied.

His mommy frowned as if she didn’t like what he was saying but she chose to agree.

“All right. Go ahead. Just make sure you eat there.”

"Thank you, Mommy," she said and kiss her cheeks.

She enters her car and drove it. After a few hours, she arrived at the building. The guard greeted her and she smiled at him. Candice then open the door and she was greeted by a smile from her all office mates. And then she smiled back.

"What time is it? All I thought you absent?" Genevieve asked as she sit down.

"Nah, I won't go with you the next time you invite me. I got my hangover, my head hurts big time," she replied.

Genevieve laugh.

"Yeah. But come to think of it. You enjoyed it. And I didn't imagine that you dance." Genevieve said.

Damn you! The alcohol was the one I want to punch. I suddenly lost my sanity. So from now on, I won't taste the alcohol." she replied shaking her head.

"And then mind you. The great Candice Harlow Whitlock is crying over drinking alcohol," she said.

"Shut up. And lower your voice, they might think that I'm broken-hearted," she said.

"Don't mind them, they all know that you are single and ready to mingle," Genevieve said and flipping her hair.

"Your so talkative," Candice said.

"Yes, now you realize that we exist in your world. Because only now are you talking to your co-worker."

"I'm too busy," she said to cover up the embarrassment lest her colleague thinks she was too picky about the people she wanted to meet.

"Are you busy? Or do you just not want to talk to us?" Genevieve asked.

"Of course not. I've had a lot of piles of work these past few days so I haven't had a chance to mingle with you guys," she replied.

"Whatever."

"How's your hangover? Did you take medicine?" Genevieve asked in a concerned tone.

"My head hurts so much," she replied.

"Why did you drink too much? As much as I know that you don't have a problem? I was just ashamed that I invited you it's ended up your head hurt." said Genevieve.

"It's okay. Getting drunk is a new experience for me," she replied.

"It's good that you're still at work. I thought you were mad at me," said Genevieve.

"Silly."

By the way. How was your conversation with Nico? I noticed you were talking too deeply." Genevieve asked.

"Our conversation is fine. And I feel that he doesn't want to talk to me, so he was forced to because we were the only two left at the table," he answered.

"Uh-huh. But you two are perfect," it said.

"Really?"

Candice didn't even think about what Genevieve was saying to her at the time. Nico can't hide his looks so he's too aloof and doesn't like to talk.

"Did he tell you about himself?" Genevieve asked again.

"Aside from his name, he didn't mention anything else. And he said that you are not friends. Only Letitia and the boys are his officemates." Candice replied.

"Yeah. Just a while ago Letitia told me that Nicolai is happily married with one daughter. That's why it was included in their night out during those times, they forced it. The wife should be very understanding." answered Genieve.

"It's good. That's why he's so formal." Candice said but her brain flew.

He did not understand why he was disappointed by what he found out. That's why he's very quiet and only counts his words because he has a wife, unlike Logan who is very flirtatious and flirty. Only now did Candice think that the first words she had said to her were wrong. She smiled at the thought that she had just met a man who was so faithful to his beloved that even if he was not with her, he would remain a good husband. Candice felt insecure

About Nico’s wife, whoever she is, she is very lucky.

"Too bad we don't have a chance on him. He's handsome and faithful." could only say, Genevieve. Good thing she didn't notice her silence.

"We'll eat together later, Genevieve," he said.

"Sure."

When Nicolai arrived at the office, Logan immediately greeted him. He walked with her to her table.

"We thought you had a hangover?" asked Letitia.

"I didn't drink much," answered Nicolai.

"Just say you're afraid to get too drunk because your wife might scold you," said Letitia.

"Nicolai's wife, Letty, is not a nagger. She is very kind. Where can one find a woman like her? I feel like looking for one." Levi replied.

Nicolai just smiled.

"My wife is alone, Levi. But I know she has many other habits. Just look for it." answered Nicolai with a smile.

Letitia blinked.

"How are you going to find a sensible woman, Levi? You can't be sensible yourself." Logan laughed.

"What do you think of Candice?" Logan asked. Nicolai just listened quietly why did Miss Whitlock join their conversation? Levi sat down.

"What do you mean, Logan?" he asked.

"What can you say to Candice?"

"She's beautiful and kind but she's like a star because it's hard to reach," Levi replied.

"So you like Candice? Your dreams are so high." Letitia asked.

"Is there a basis for wealth now when it comes to love? I'm handsome and I have a job. If he takes me somewhere, I can be his boyfriend instead of being his servant," Levi replied.

"Is she single?" Logan asked looking at her.

"What? Why are you looking at me?" Nicolai asked.

"Maybe you know something. Because you talked to him there, right?"

"We just talked but we don't know each other. It's too weird if we just met then and then he immediately tells me he's single. I think he wants to talk to the air more than me." answered Nicolai.

"True. But when you got home, he drank and got drunk, lost his way on the dance floor and danced suddenly, then cried," said Letitia.

"The woman I like is someone like Candice. She works too hard and has a profession in life, you don't think about the inheritance you will receive from the family's wealth." Levi said.

"Do you try flirting?" Nicolai's suggestion.

"Yes. Will you help me?" Levi asked.

"Why should I help? Just ask Letitia because Genevieve is her friend." Nicolai said.

Letitia raised her eyebrows at what he said.

"If you're interested in her. You don't need any more help." Letitia said and walked away.

They were left laughing.
