Chapter 546 - Spare Room (2/2)

”What?!” This time it was Xander and Rui who yelled in chorus with a shocked look plastered all over their faces.

”What? Are you two deaf?!” Candice impatiently grunted, making Rui and Xander both shut their mouth to avoid annoying her.

Cali looked at Yera, who signaled her to concentrate on eating.

Rui cleared his throat and said, ”Yes, I have one room… I will have it ready for you for the night.”

Candice's eyebrows lifted as she murmured, ”But I'm not staying only for the night. You owe me, you know… I don't want to return to country V yet, so let me hide here for a while.”

”What's going on? Is there a problem?” Xander asked with knitted brows.

Candice pouted her lips and looked both at Yera and Cali as she mumbled, ”Please let me stay in your house for now? I promise I will behave and will definitely not crawl on the bed of either of your men at night…”

Cali's face reddened while Yera ended up bursting into a fit of laughter. Yera was already used to Candice's playful personality and language, so it was nothing new to her. She was just like that. She loved to act like she was an antagonist in some movies, but in reality, this woman had a golden heart.

”Candice… You have a den all over the world! What's wrong with you? Can't you see that we are both couples staying here who want some privacy?” Xander chided her.

”But, it's the only place he can't enter… Anyway, it's okay if you don't want me to stay here. I shall probably look for a more suitable place and hide there…” Candice murmured with a pouty face and dropped shoulders.

Yera chuckled and said, ”I'm sure Rui and Cali won't mind you staying here for a few days.”

”Yeah, it's okay. Besides, you helped us out, although I'm still a bit confused about what is going on. I'm in awe, to be honest. Why would Edward do that? Was it because I rejected him?” Cali asked out of curiosity.

”Hmm, no, it wasn't about that, but it's quite a complicated story. I heard it's not good for you to think too much. I suggest you not to worry anymore. Edward is now in the custody and it's where he should belong. It's not about you rejecting him. He's just a psycho.” Candice explained nonchalantly.

The evening went well and Rui went back to his room as soon as he showed Candice the room she could use.

Meanwhile, Cali was in a dilemma walking from one corner to another inside her own room. She wondered if it would be okay for her to crossover to Rui's room to sleep at night. She suddenly felt shy because Xander and Yera were married, so it was natural for them to sleep together, but she and Rui were just in a relationship.

She suddenly became conscious of what Rui's friends would think of her if they found out that she often slept with Rui.

”They will probably think I'm too easy…” she whispered to herself as she laid down on her bed lazily and tried to go to sleep. She was starting to doze off when she almost jumped on her bed because she heard someone knocking on her door.
