Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 89: Candice was forced to sign an unjust contract after the Harman family humiliated her, all because of him. Miserable and helpless, she was kicked out of the Harman family that night in the midst of heavy rain. Alone, she walked through the heavy rain. But fate had another humiliation waiting for her. She could have identified the man, but she stopped herself from rolling down the car window and missed her chance. Later, Mona took over the case. Actually, Candice had many opportunities to discover the man's identity. However, she was avoiding the truth.

She had never imagined Milton would be responsible for her plight. In front of her, Milton stood with pursed lips. His handsome face was filled with arrogance. He had just announced that he would not acknowledge her child. Even if she was pregnant, he demanded she undergo an abortion. According to him, her child had no right to the Lopez family inheritance. What was truly ridiculous was that she was indeed pregnant due to her carelessness after that night. But she would never reveal the truth to him. No matter who the man was that night, Candice had never considered having an abortion.

She had witnessed her parents' deaths firsthand and could no longer accept the loss of any family member, including an unborn child. With this thought in mind, Candice lowered her gaze. Her breaths were as intense as the tides, and she wanted to pull her hand away, but Milton held it tightly. "Are you really Candice Blake?" Milton finally spoke to confirm the truth. Candice lifted her head and smiled. "Yes." Milton's thin lips twisted. Candice continued, "I'm sorry, but I won't accept your terms.

I'll make sure you pay for what you've done." Judge Fletcher intervened, sensing that something was amiss. Mediating before the court was part of his responsibility. "Let's remain calm and discuss this reasonably," he suggested. Updates loaded at gσvs.co After all, Milton was a prominent figure in Ploville. If Judge Fletcher offended him, his career prospects could be ruined. "Leave," Milton growled quietly. After a moment, Judge Fletcher realized Milton was asking him to leave. He felt uneasy but touched his nose and spoke quietly to Milton before exiting the room.

"If you can't handle her, I'll help you out." Judge Fletcher then hurriedly left, the door shutting behind him. Candice was finally free from Milton's grasp. She sneered, "I handed the case over to someone else because I didn't want to see you. If I had known it was you, there's no way I would have let you humiliate me again today." Her voice was filled with bitterness. "How absurd! Milton Lopez, you're quite the actor. You knew it was me all along, didn't you? With your abilities, how could you not have discovered my identity? You let Raul come to our law firm to make sure I took the case.

Then you got the chance to approach me, thinking I would fall for your charm. Did you do all that just to humiliate me again?" For the first time, Candice said his full name. "Why do you still want to talk? Haven't you already achieved your goal of humiliating me?" Without a word, Milton's face twisted with rage. He hadn't done those things, but explaining himself seemed pointless at that moment. Guilt gnawed at Milton's conscience. The two stood in a tense standoff for a moment. With a scornful grin, Candice pushed Milton away and headed toward the door.

However, just as the door creaked open, Milton slammed it shut forcefully. The loud bang startled Candice. When she regained her composure, she realized she was trapped between Milton's arms and the door. . . .
