Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 462: "It's totally unrelated to the case." He reached out and gently squeezed her chin. Expecting her to pull away, he gripped her chin firmly. "But I did hurt you, after all." She grinned and said, "Yes, you hurt me on our wedding night. Yet, you came to my rescue. Maybe it was fate. I've dropped the case, so we're even now. There's no debt between us anymore." "Fuck! I can't be even with you at all!" Milton cursed angrily. Candice ignored his anger and smiled sweetly. She extended her hand, revealing the jade bracelet, then slowly took it off her wrist.

Candice carefully held the priceless jade bracelet in her hand and handed it to Milton, smiling with self-mockery. "I had tried every means but failed to take off this bracelet in the past. I didn't expect it to be so easy to remove now. I needed to lose weight, but I never thought of such a simple method. The night I fell down the stairs, I happened to be wearing the wristband, so this bracelet remained intact. That's good-I couldn't afford to break it.

Now I can finally return it to its rightful owner." Milton let go of her chin, squinted at the bracelet in her hand, and wore an expression best described as restrained rage. She took it off! "I will never take back what I've already given to others," Milton said coldly. Candice ignored him. She took out a handkerchief and wrapped the invaluable jade bracelet. Regardless of his objections, she stuffed the folded handkerchief into the pocket of his suit. "I'm sorry. I heard that bracelet is an heirloom of your family. I don't deserve it.

Keep it or give it to someone who does." After saying that, Candice suddenly remembered the necklace around her neck, an award-winning piece of jewelry. She couldn't take it off, nor was she willing to destroy it just to remove it. Well, she would keep it for now. It could be her small wish fulfilled.

"Even if I wanted to, how could I?" Candice chuckled lightly. "You're one of our firm's most prominent clients.

You're a big boss. Don't worry. The cases I've taken are all progressing normally. I have submitted the necessary defenses. Trial sessions will begin next month. I'll attend myself. As for your mother's cases, I'm confident I'll fight for her best interests. Please tell her not to worry." "That's not what I meant." Milton frowned. Damn attorney-client matters! That was not what he was talking about. "And...

I will continue to work as your personal attorney." Candice took out a key and said, "Last time, you proposed to return my family's villa to me as an advanced twelve-year payment for my legal services. I've decided to accept it officially. I'll move in tomorrow or the day after." "Tomorrow. It's all good. Moving forward, I will strictly distinguish between business and private matters." . . .
