Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 452: But that had been his plan at the time. Now the situation had changed. Candice had fallen down the stairs by accident, resulting in the loss of the fetus. Given the severe impact, it was not surprising the pregnancy ended abruptly. It seemed highly likely that Erica, Milton's mother, had a hand in this unfortunate event. This created an irreparable rift between Milton and Candice. This was exactly what he had wanted all along. Candice had repeatedly refused Greyson's proposal to remarry, even confronting his grandfather in person. Greyson knew this was because of Milton.

But if the truth about Candice's unhealthy fetus were to be exposed now, the rift between her and Milton might potentially be repaired. This would create more obstacles for him to win her over. At that moment, Greyson realized he needed to weave a web of lies to cover the truth, and there was no turning back. Adjusting his posture, Greyson said coldly, "Essie, I need you to keep this a secret." "Ah! Why?" Essie asked, confused. If Candice knew she couldn't keep her baby, it would ease the pain in her heart. Besides, Candice had already suspected that her baby might not be healthy.

This child was not meant to come into the world. Essie, being a woman herself, could understand another woman's thoughts. Therefore, she was even more puzzled by Greyson's request. But one thing was clear: the child was not Greyson's. There was no hint of regret in his eyes for the child. Essie couldn't help but wonder what Greyson's intentions were, but she knew it wasn't her place to ask. "No reason. Just do as I said." With the fluid grace of a practiced hand, Greyson produced an air ticket, a check, and a folded letter from his suit pocket.

"Here is the air ticket and a sum of money," he announced. "This is your offer. You have been accepted as a doctoral student at Hawkins Medical College. You will be there to further your studies for the next three years. Harmony Hospital has already secured a position for you. I have arranged for your personnel file to be transferred accordingly. Upon your return in three years' time, I promise you even greater benefits." galnσνels.c○m hosts fresh updates As Greyson held out the offer to Essie, her eyes widened in disbelief.

To be admitted as a doctoral student at the prestigious Hawkins Medical College was the ultimate dream for any doctor. With her qualifications and education, she had never dared to believe she was eligible for such an opportunity. Greyson's generosity was both unexpected and overwhelming. She examined the offer closely, turning it over in her hands, then looked back up at Greyson in awe. "Really? Sir, you... you are truly remarkable." Essie was too excited to speak coherently. Greyson smiled, his voice filled with assurance. "I said I would be responsible for all the consequences.

I will keep my word. Over the next three years, after you leave Ploville, this matter will gradually be forgotten, and no one will mention it again. You can study with peace of mind. As for East Hospital, I've arranged for someone to take the blame for you. You will have no responsibility." . . .
