The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 847

"Why aren't you going? The whole family will be there," Jasper said as he started the car and drove off.

Candice remained silent.

Jasper continued, coaxing softly, "Candice, how about we get your makeup done and find a lovely evening gown? Just come along to the banquet with me, alright?"

Candice, with her naturally gentle disposition, found it difficult to resist her brother's request. She nodded in acquiescence.

The opulent Hoffis Manor gleamed with grandeur. Crystal chandeliers cast a radiant glow over the expansive ballroom, exuding an aura of luxury and sophistication. Soft, melodic music filled the air, mingling with the chatter and laughter of the elite guests.

Being the richest family in Norvania, the Hoffis family's banquet was attended predominantly by aristocrats and dignitaries.

The entire Morrison family was present.

Candice's uncles were huddled together, complaining to Tristan.

"What spell did you cast on Candice that she insisted on working for your company?" Duke grumbled.

Tristan laughed innocently, "I didn't even know Candice was working for us."

Taylor chimed in, "I offered her the funds to start her own business, but she refused. I even suggested she take the role of vice president at my company, but she said she couldn't do it."

Tobias added, "I planned to make a few blockbuster movies to kick-start her acting career, but she wasn't interested. She insisted on joining ND Group as a designer and working for your family."

"In my opinion, Candice shouldn't be working at all. We can easily support her without her having to work," Taylor concluded.

Tristan couldn't help but laugh as he looked toward the entrance. "Candice is here."

All eyes turned to the entrance.

Candice walked in with Jasper, dressed in an elegant, off-white evening gown that was both sophisticated and sweet.

Taylor waved them over, signaling Jasper to bring Candice to their group.

The noise was overwhelming, echoing in her ears.

Candice looked around and sighed, "Everyone, I'm fine. It's just a stained dress. There's nothing to worry about."

Jasper quickly interjected, "Luckily, I brought three evening gowns. Two are still in the car. I'll go get them now."

Sienna and Daniel approached.

"Candice, are you alright?" Sienna asked.

Candice managed a smile. "Mom, Dad, I'm fine."

"Follow Jasper to Aunt Chubs' room to change," Daniel instructed.

"Okay." Candice remained calm and nodded apologetically at the server. "I'm sorry for bumping into you earlier."
