Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 244: Candice grinned and replied, "Of course. I've already saved a room just for you." After hanging up the phone, Candice took a deep breath and headed for the shower. The warm water helped her relax and wash away the fatigue of the day. Once finished, she slipped into comfortable pajamas, a towel draped over her shoulders as her wet hair dripped down. While in the shower, she had ordered some delicious omelet rice with curry. Just as she stepped into the living room, the doorbell rang. The speed of the delivery surprised her.

Even though she lived in the heart of the city, it was impressive that the takeout arrived so quickly.

You are too thin as it is." He then unceremoniously threw her omelet rice into the trash can.

"What are you, a policeman?" Candice's eyes widened in displeasure. "What do you mean?" Milton arched an eyebrow and asked. "It means you should mind your own business!" Candice scowled.
