Candice couldn’t resist her curiosity. “I bet there are more diary entries besides this one. Where are they? I’d like to see them as well.” “The rest are irrelevant and none of your concern. Focus on this page alone,” Fenna replied with a stern tone.
Candice gave a faint smile as she set down the documents, asking, “Is there anything more?”Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Irritated, Mervyn snapped, “Aren’t these enough?”
Candice shook her head. “No.”
Taken aback, Mervyn and Fenna exchanged a look of surprise.
Candice smiled contentedly. “I’m really curious about when Elio started feeling this way about me. He wants us to have children together-surely that means he likes me a lot, right?”
Enraged, Mervyn jabbed her head. “You’re such a hopeless romantic! He has been plotting against you since high school-blocking your college applications, stopping you from studying abroad, and messing with those guys around you. I’m a victim, too!”
“How have you been a victim?” Candice asked.
With his hands on his hips, Mervyn answered through gritted teeth, “He secretly funded the ‘free’ scholarship I received to study abroad. He wanted to separate us!”
“Separate us?” Candice echoed, puzzled. “But we’re not even together. What’s there to separate between us?”
“That’s exactly why I find him so terrifying,” Mervyn explained.
Fenna glanced at Candice, then at Mervyn before saying,” And the worst is yet to come.” She then pulled out another stack of photos and handed them to Candice.
“He’s somewhat disturbed,” Fenna remarked sincerely. “Candice, you must consider carefully and not rush into anything.”
Candice accepted the photos and began to flip through them, one by one. Tears inexplicably welled up in her eyes, and she struggled to articulate the emotions stirring in her heart. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Those photos of her had been secretly taken since she was a child. Every aspect of her life was captured on camera, including pictures of her sleeping. Not all the photos were artistic or beautiful. Many were inappropriately focused on her legs and chest, particularly when she wore a dress. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Viewed individually, the photos gave off a creepy, invasive vibe. However, when seen collectively, they clearly depicted the obsessive actions of a guy secretly photographing his crush. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Elio was clearly obsessed, as evidenced by these secretly taken photos. But why had Candice never noticed anything before? Mervyn poked the thick stack of photos in her hand and asked, “Aren’t you terrified by such a creepy guy?”
Fenna added, “Do you remember the guy who openly confessed his feelings for you at the school gate in your senior year?” Candice nodded in response.
“That guy ended up in the hospital the next day. A week later, his entire family moved to another city,” Fenna said.
Mervyn couldn’t resist snarking, “Elio’s psycho. His mind is like a bottomless pit of darkness.”
Candice hung her head with a heavy heart and murmured, “So, he’s been crushing on me since I was a kid?”
Exasperated, Mervyn grabbed her arm. “Can we stay on topic here? We’re discussing his character and the messed-up tactics he employs! Aren’t you afraid of a guy so warped and dark?”
Candice gripped the photos and retorted, “Why should I be afraid? Who drove him to these dark actions? Wasn’t it all because of his mother?” “Are you feeling sorry for him?” Mervyn was baffled.
Candice offered a bitter smile. “I do feel sorry for him, but I love him even more.”
Fenna was completely stunned at her words.
