Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 209: Where had her resistance and determination gone? She couldn't put a finger on it. She then went online, opened her browser, and visited the most well-known Q&A site-where people ask questions and others provide answers. This was Candice's first time visiting a forum like this, and she felt a little out of place. She created a profile while concealing her IP address. Then she began typing her question: "I was coerced into sex with a guy." She typed one sentence, paused, then continued, "He kissed me several more times after that.

Although I resisted at first, lately I no longer want to resist him. For some reason, I can't figure out why." Afterward, Candice hit the send button. Since it was public, she felt terrible about posting such a personal question. She was a lawyer-usually the one answering questions-and seldom sought advice from others when faced with similar issues. With that thought, she was about to delete the post. But before she could, she received a response: "You must have fallen in love with him." Candice was taken aback and stared blankly at the screen. Then she sneered. How was that even possible?

Falling in love with Milton was improbable. It was he who compelled her-all this time! Candice rolled her eyes and responded, "That just can't be possible. I don't have Stockholm syndrome. If a guy has to compel me to do anything, he won't get any of my affection." Only a few minutes later, the comment section exploded with other viewpoints. "Do you think he's gorgeous?" Exclusive chapters at gⱯlnσνls․com "Is the guy who forced you fond of you?" Candice grumbled at the feedback and replied one by one. "He's not that bad.

Nonetheless, he might be the most attractive person in the world!" "I have no idea whether he even likes me. Not in my opinion." Were these responses really helping her? Several more comments followed. The first person to reply again shortly after said, "It has nothing to do with Stockholm syndrome. I can tell you have feelings for him. Just think about it. If he were a vile old guy, would you resist?" That was followed by a slew of responses: "Come on, sis. Physically, you've accepted him, right?" "That's just how you are.

You've grown used to his presence and his overbearing behavior toward you. So you're giving your consent." . . .
