Chapter 414
Chapter 414:
“You are right.” Annabel’s beautiful eyes narrowed. “I didn’t pay attention to these details in the past p>
“Don’t be too hard on yourself, Annabel. Onlookers see more clearly than players. Still, your canceling the engagement ceremony on impulse gave Candy a chance. But come to think of it, what if Candy is fake?” Anika snorted.
“Isn’t that just absurd?” Annabel furrowed her brow.
Despite her response, she couldn’t help flashing back to what happened at Benton Group earlier.
Actually, Candy was nothing like the kind-hearted girl Rupert used to describe.
She was two-faced and conniving.
A lot of things weren’t adding up about her.
“But I don’t think Rupert would make such a mistake.” Annabel touched her temple subconsciously.
Since Rupert was sure that Candace was Candy, there must be no mistake.
Was there anything wrong?
“What makes you so sure about that?” Anika disagreed. “Didn’t you tell me that Rupert once treated you as Candy? Why then do you think he wouldn’t repeat it again? Did Candy just stumble upon your engagement ceremony at the precise time she did? And what happened after that? The engagement was canceled. Wasn’t that too much of a coincidence p>
After thinking for a while, Annabel replied, “You know what, Anika? We’ll check it out when I come back. Let’s stop talking about this for the time being. My biggest wish right now is to find the doctor as soon as possible so that he can help cure Bruce p>
“You’ve got to look into the matter more carefully. It’s not easy to find someone you love. Don’t give up so easily.” Anika let out a sigh.
Annabel and Anika traveled for a long time before finally arriving at Chilly Mountain.
It was a vast expanse of forest, covered with trees, snow, and ice.

“Are you sure the doctor is here?” Anika asked, shivering from the cold.
“He should be, if my instincts are right,” Annabel said, rubbing her arms together for warmth. “Many years ago, he told me he would like to live in Chilly Mountain in the future p>
“Oh, just your instincts? How awesome,” Anika said helplessly.
Annabel noticed that her friend was almost freezing to death. “How about we ask someone around about him p>
“That’s fine with me.” Anika nodded and looked around.
At the foot of the mountain, there was a small village with several farmhouses. After a while, they reached one of the houses and knocked. “Hello! Is anybody home p>
“Who are you looking for?” A middle-aged woman with gray hair opened the door and stared at them curiously.
“We didn’t mean to bother you, ma’am. Do you mind pointing us in the direction of Perigoda?” Annabel smiled faintly.
She still remembered that Chayce had said that if he eventually settled down in Chilly Mountain, he would live in Perigoda, because the closest person to his heart was staying there.
