Signs that show Albert was in love with Candy
While women can be very verbal in expressing themselves, men may be quite the opposite. When a man is in love, rather than expressing his feelings in words, he probably shows it through his actions or behavior.
To me, Albert was like that. As I mentioned in an earlier post, he shielded Candy from a lion’s attack without second thought, which indicates that he put her life before his. What’s more important than one’s own life?
Moreover, he was happy to be with her or wanted to be around her. Other than the fact that he had chosen to hide his recovery so that he could continue to live with her for a few more months, he paid surprise visits to her after she had moved back to Pony’s Home. In Candy Candy Final Story (CCFS), it is clear that Albert was a very busy businessman, and yet he went all the way from Chicago to Pony’s Home to visit Candy (considered that it could be a day trip for him back and forth), and not just once. Even Candy wrote to him saying that her heart was slowly getting used to his surprise visits. Hence, instead of relaxing at home during his break, he opted to spend time with Candy, which implied that he missed her a lot and keeping in touch with her in writing was not enough.
Also, Albert cared about what Candy cared about. In CCFS, he bought the land from Mr. Cartwright and paid to renovate Pony’s Home. With his vast family fortune, this was but a small amount of money, but this was not an investment because profit was minimal (if any). Rather, it was a generous giving. Often the way a man handles his money is a gauge of his affections. I won’t be surprised if he got oppositions from his aunt or others about spending money on upgrading an orphanage, but as the family head, he had the power to do what he saw fit.
There are other posts along this line for your interest. Until next time! 🙂
Hi Ms Puddl, You couldn’ t say it any better! I have a question for you or the others. Why Albert didn´t want to put his arm on Candy’s shoulder(CHP.. 5 APR ) But he didn´t mind holding Candy’s shoulder in front of the people at the
party? Was he so in love or so jelous of Darren? I think Candy has noticed this situation, maybe she felt flattered to get his attention, eventhough she might have being very unconfortable and wet too! What would you do in her shoes?
Thanks so much, Hope to hear from you soon! Anyway, please congratulate QVC on my behalf for agreat job on APR 2!
ps. My key board wasn’t working well, so sorry for several mistakes.oops!
Hola Brenda, it took me a moment before I realized you were talking about a chapter in my story, Peculiar Relationship, because you left this comment on an irrelevant post. 😉
Hmmmm… About Albert’s and Candy’s actions in that chapter, I will let you imagine what went on their minds. 🙂 💓
Sure I’ll let my friend QuevivaCandy know! Thank you so much for your encouraging words, Brenda! 💓💕💗💞
Hola amiga, How nice to hear from you so soon! I thought you ‘d like it . Honestly, I won´ t blame Candy at all!
Have you listened that love sometimes get us a little crazy? jajaja…LOL! I guess, Candy couldn´t eat or sleep well
thinking and longing for Albert, as you ‘ve mentioned in your stories. Had this ever happend to you? Actually, this happened to me. in my opinion, he liked Candy at first, then he liked Candy’s friendship, but after his recovering,
the day they shared the sandwich, somehow, he wanted her to share… At that moment I guess he knew, that
something was going on between them, ! Come on, she was pretty and she was already a grown up miss with a a big heart ! I am sorry, this is not onmy business,but I agree with you, it was a process because of their special relationship well planned by Mizuki. So,she granted Candy with all she decerved through POH.
Well enough of writing! It’s always a pleasure to read and yet get some news from you.
Thanks for all my dear friend!
Hello Brenda! I think most of us have gone through a stage in which we miss someone so badly that it hurt or affected our sleep. Don’t you think?
So what Candy went through wasn’t missing a friend or ‘brother’… Albert was more than that by then.
Back to the sandwich scene, I think Albert was already in love but didn’t ask for anything from Candy. She still mourned over Terry because his career had gone downhill and he was missing. Albert really wanted to share her sorrows and burdens … for the rest of her life… even though he knew her heart seemingly belonged to Terry.
Have a great day, Brenda! 💓💕
Hello Ms Puddle, I totally agree with you! He would do anything to please Candy, she loved to see him around as much as possible, though his busy life ! I think that anygirl would notice “the look”.“The eyes are the mirror of the soul and reflect everything that seems to be hidden; Quote by Paulo Coelho. Anyway,
Ps. I found the songs sing along on youtube. (According to Mizuki, she created Candy smart enough, but sometimes naive. psThanks for your replay.
Hola Brenda! Yes, I totally agree, that the eyes are the mirror of the soul! Nice quote, Brenda! Thank you for sharing it with us! 😘
Candy was a smart girl, but when it comes to love, she wasn’t so smart anymore… Sigh 😋😝
So true. You put it so well in writing 🙂
Thank you CKati! Happy to hear that! 😀
Of course Albert is already in love with Candy. Why else do you think he let Candy hug him all she wants? Only one thing she hasn’t done is rope her arms around his neck! 😛
Laugh out loud… That reminds me of one of my old chapters in Love Never Fails 🙂
Like they say when a man is in love with a woman, he’ll do everything to make her happy and secure. 😉
That’s very true indeed!! Thank you! 😀
Well said!
Thank you! 🙂
The sparkle in their eyes as they met again in London proves they’re happy to see each other
Very interesting! Though I think Albert still treated her as a little girl then. After all, he knew very well who she was. 😛
Hi! I think Albert was in love with Candy since they were in London.
Really? You think so? Why?
In reply to Anonymous:
I don’t agree with you on this. It would be kind of sick if he were in love with her then. She was just a young girl and he knew that. I am convinced that he started to fall in love with her when he lived with her, because he didn’t have any memories of her and she was a bit older. It just makes more sense to me.
Yes CKati. That’s what I think too. Mizuki made him totally forget who Candy was first.
