Chapter 99: CHAPTER 98



Andrew limited himself to explaining what the models had to do during the fashion show. It was a class that lasted for about an hour and after he finished explaining, Helena took over from him and supervised the models.

Due to Dastan\'s earlier comment, none of the members of the Heavenly Palace entered into a conversation with him, they just explained what should be done and Dastan having no other choice just watched and learned without asking any questions.

He knew that he had screwed up, however, it wasn\'t as if Andrew and the others weren\'t going to answer him if he asked something, because Andrew valued Candice\'s friendship very much, it\'s just that Dastan was very arrogant and didn\'t want to lower himself again to ask them something

While they were practicing for the fashion show, Gastón went to inform Candice. Gaston had nothing against Dastan, but he knew that Candice would find out about the incident sooner or later, so he went to report it.

Gaston wasn\'t stupid, he knew that if Candice found out what happened and that he hadn\'t reported it, he would suffer just like Dastan, so he didn\'t feel sorry for Dastan and came to the office.

When Candice saw him, she invited him in immediately. He could see Candice\'s enthusiasm for this cooperation and that made Gastón show solidarity towards Dastan because he knew that when he finished reporting, the young man was going to suffer.

"Go ahead, Gastón, tell me, how are things going?" Candice said enthusiastically, but soon her expression changed. Her brows were furrowed and her eyes held a hint of inquisition.

At seeing her like this, Gastón knew that her boss had understood that what he was going to report was not good, and when he heard her next question he could only sigh, "What happened?", ask Candice.

After a resigned sigh, Gastón regained his composure and began to report, "Mrs. Candice, everything is going according to plan, Mr. Andrew arrived accompanied by his wives and they are training in the living room."

"But," Candice said with a serious and even a little annoyed expression, and Gaston didn\'t dare to delay, so he replied, "An incident occurred when I introduced Dastan to Mr. Andrew and his companions."

Gastón paused to assess his boss\'s state of mind, only to be met with a cold and dangerous look, so he continued his report, not wanting to be responsible for his boss\'s anger.

"Stupid Dastan insulted Mr. Andrew\'s wives, calling them whores, and well, Mr. Andrew got mad." The room seemed to have descended into a glacier because the coldness in Candice\'s gaze was dangerous.

"What did Mr. Andrew say?" Candice asked without emotion in her tone and Gastón responded immediately, "If you insult my wives again, I promise that even Mrs. Candice will not have the ability to stop you from breathing your last breath, those were the textual words".

Candice was surprised at Andrew\'s arrogant words, for while it was true that her employee had been wrong, she didn\'t like that Andrew said that even she couldn\'t stop him, but not being impulsive Candice asked, "You were there. What do you think of what he said?"

Gastón thought for a moment about how to respond and Candice noticed, so she told him, "Tell me your thoughts honestly", then Gastón sighed and began to explain his analysis.

"Then, Mrs. Candice, I\'ll be honest. Mr. Andrew does not seem to me as soft as you said, in my opinion, his words did not seem empty, I even thought that he would kill Dastan at that moment ".

Candice\'s expression worsened considerably, as Gastón was one of her trusted men, so she knew him well and even valued his opinion greatly, and listening to him she couldn\'t help but think that if her subordinate\'s assessment was correct, she had underestimated Andrew.

"Do you think the boy hides his strength?" Candice asked seriously and Gaston answered, "I don\'t think so, his strength shouldn\'t be too different from what we know, but I feel that Mr. Andrew is not simple".

The office fell silent after that comment. Candice was deeply thinking about Gaston\'s words, but she had little information, as it had been difficult for her to infiltrate the Heavenly Palace.

After thinking for a while, Candice let out a sigh, since she hadn\'t found a solution or plan of action. She decided not to worry about it now, then she told Gastón that he could leave.

Obeying his boss, Gastón got up and started to walk towards the door, but when he was halfway there he stopped and turned to look at Candice and with a serious expression said, "Mrs. Candice, I know it\'s not my place to say it, but I still want to tell you something."

Candice was surprised by Gastón\'s behavior, but still allowed him to continue, "Tell me, no problem, I value your opinion", then Gastón blurted out what he wanted to say even if it made his boss uncomfortable, "It\'s better not to make Mr. Andrew an enemy".

Gaston\'s recommendation made Candice raise an eyebrow. She could tell that Gastón was a little worried and that intrigued her. Candice and her team have been in the business world for many years and have survived many threats, but she had never seen Gastón this way.

It was true that she valued Gastón\'s opinions, that\'s why his comment worried her and she couldn\'t help but ask, "Why do you think that? Don\'t worry, I intend to become friends with him since there is a lot of profit involved, but I am intrigued by why you are so cautious with him ".

Gastón remained silent for a few minutes, Candice did not interrupt him, then Gastón began to speak again, "Mrs. Candice, do you remember when we first met?"

The strange question confused Candice, but even so, she nodded, letting him know that she remembered it and Gastón continued speaking "Back then the pressure you gave off was incredible and it made me admire you, that\'s why I decided to follow you".

Gaston paused before continuing, "Despite your powerful aura, I could somehow gauge your strength and that you would achieve great things, but with Mr. Andrew, I couldn\'t do that. The aura that he emitted gave me a strange feeling."

Again Candice was surprised by Gastón\'s words. Her expression grew more serious and she asked, "Do you feel that he is superior to me?" Gastón hesitated for a moment and Candice knew that her subordinate wanted to sugarcoat his words so she added, "You don\'t have to sugarcoat words, tell me what you feel."

Then Gastón did not hold back and said, "I do not feel that you are superior, for me you are a bird that flies above the clouds, but Mr. Andrew is not from this world." silence filled the office.

Candice had already noticed that Gaston\'s evaluation of Andrew was incredibly high, but she never expected those words, so she couldn\'t help but swallow a sharp breath.

"That high?" She couldn\'t help but ask, and Gastón grimacing annoyed, because he didn\'t want to belittle his boss, said, "Yes, that high. Since I\'m being bold and disrespectful, I\'ll say something else. I think Mrs. Candice should consider that boy."

Candice\'s eyes widened when she heard Gastón and she suddenly wanted to rebuke him, but she managed to calm down. She knew that all of her trusted staff knew about the taboo of talking about her affective relationships, so she thought, "If Gastón dares to talk about it, it means that this boy has something special."

Seeing that her boss didn\'t reprimand him relieved Gaston who was holding his breath since he spoke, then Candice told him to back off, and only then he could breathe again.

Candice remained in the office silent, thoughtful, and soft-spoken she said, "What do you think?" The only one in the room beside her was her butler, but he was not the one who answered. the person that answered was a woman who emerged from the shadows and said, "I was present when Gastón reported."

"Do you share his thoughts?" Candice asked again, and the woman replied, "Yes. That man is not simple." Candice nodded, and the woman stepped back into the shadows.

Although a little worried, Candice was also a little excited, since two of her closest subordinates had given Andrew an impressive assessment and somehow this moved her.

It wasn\'t that she wanted to compete with him. She wanted to see how far the boy\'s ability would go. She even considered Gaston\'s proposal to get closer to Andrew if he lived up to her expectations, but for now, she decided to just wait and see how things evolved.
