Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 211: With that in mind, she picked up the phone. "Candice, what the heck have you been up to? Didn't you read the many texts I sent you?" Greyson's voice on the other end of the line was filled with irritation. Candice suppressed her frustration and replied, "I normally don't check my messages. If there's something serious I need to know, give me a call, Mr. Harman. Forget about contacting me unless it's urgent. Like you, I have a full schedule." "Okay, tell me, what's been keeping you so busy?

Do you have so much on your plate that you can't even respond to a message?" Candice frowned. Was he calling just to argue with her? Damn! "What's wrong with you, Greyson? I'm afraid I have to decline further conversation if you have nothing to add because I need to work overtime." Then, in a quieter tone, Greyson replied, "Tonight, there's a meal you can't miss. It's at the restaurant on the top floor of the Hyatt Hotel. Room 206. You need to be there before 7:00." "The Hyatt Hotel? The restaurant on the top floor?" The Hyatt Hotel!

"The Hyatt Hotel does, in fact, have a restaurant on its top floor. I know you, you won't be late!" Greyson abruptly ended the call before she could decline. Candice stared at her phone in confusion.

The top floor of the Hyatt was a fine dining restaurant? So, Milton hadn't given her a room key that day-he had actually handed her the key to the restaurant! She touched her face, feeling the warmth spreading across her skin. Damn it! So Milton's intention was to have dinner with her, not to sleep with her.

Milton, however, knew she had misinterpreted him but never bothered to clarify. Candice gathered her belongings and powered off her computer.

The Hope Law Firm was nearly empty. She was the very last person there. Once outside, Candice grabbed a cab. She headed straight to the Hyatt Hotel. Greyson had sent her the directions to Room 206. Truth be told, she had no desire to see him. What he had done to her last time was still fresh in her mind. Yet, she needed to hand over the Centilength Biotech file to him. . . .
