Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 163: Candice nodded. "Yes, I was there." "Damn! Mr. Lopez did that for you? That's so damn cool." Bettina gave her a thumbs-up in amazement. "I never thought of doing that before-mainly because it's too expensive. But then again, he's really rich." "You're overthinking. Why would he do that for me?" Candice glanced at Bettina. "He bought the ballet troupe to start a business venture in the art industry." Bettina snorted. "You're clueless when it comes to love." After thinking for a while, Candice still believed it was impossible Milton did it for her.

He didn't know Madilyn and didn't realize she was her nemesis. Besides, why would he spend so much money just to avenge her? She shook her head. "No way. It doesn't make sense." Bettina poked Candice's head and said, "You're such a fool." "Well, let's forget about it," Candice smiled. "I have a favor to ask." Intrigued, Bettina replied, "Tell me. I'm so bored right now." Candice pulled a stack of files from her bag. "I've been investigating the inside story of my family's bankruptcy three years ago.

After my family went broke, Benson and Grady took over and renamed Blake Group to 'Centilength Biotech.' "Many senior employees were fired, but they kept all the researchers in the R&D department. I need you to find records of Benson's and Grady's bank accounts for me. I want to know if they've been involved in any illegal activities over the past three years." Bettina took the papers and flipped through them. "All right, I'll take care of it." She raised her eyebrows. "But it's been years. Digging up the truth will be quite a challenge. If you get into any trouble or danger, tell me.

Don't take this on alone, you hear me?" "Okay." Candice nodded, touched by her great friend Bettina's words. That was why she had always trusted her. Bettina turned serious as soon as she received the task. She turned around and hurried to make the first phone call.

As she went down the stairs to log out for the day, she noticed Greyson waiting for her at the entrance. He seemed to have purchased a new car.

His Maybach was parked by the road, gleaming under the streetlights. Once he saw her come out, Greyson walked up to Candice and began to explain, "Candice, about what happened this morning..." Before he could finish his sentence, Candice quickly interrupted him. "I've already forgotten about everything that happened this morning. Do you have anything else to say?" If he wanted to talk about the fake kiss, she never wanted to bring it up again. "Get in the car. I have something to show you," Greyson ordered as he grabbed her arm.

He had wanted to share the information with her earlier in the morning, but after she left in a fury, he immediately received an emergency call from Harmony Hospital. Once the call was over, he wanted to find her and explain, but she was nowhere to be found and wasn't answering any of his calls. . . .
