Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 91: "Hmm..." Candice tried to resist, but all she could do was widen her eyes in disbelief. What... What on earth was he doing? She was completely at a loss. How could he kiss her forcibly in the court? She wanted to stop him, but her hands were firmly gripped by his. Milton wasn't satisfied. He pressed Candice's body closer to his. She grumbled and parted her lips slightly, then he kissed her more violently. He was overwhelming, leaving her no room to struggle. The kiss seemed to last forever. It was as if he wanted to consume her entirely.

At that moment, Judge Fletcher knocked on the door and called out, "Mr. Lopez, are you still in there? Mr. Lopez?" He knocked a dozen times. Although he tried turning the doorknob, the door wouldn't budge. He was bewildered. Was something happening inside? Worried, Judge Fletcher began banging on the door more urgently. Only then did Milton finally let go of Candice. She gasped for air, cheeks burning as red as molten lava. Her lips were swollen and slick. The scene was awkward. Candice hurriedly stepped away from the door. Judge Fletcher finally opened it and staggered inside.

His eyes darted between Milton and Candice, and he furrowed his brows. They were both flushed and out of breath. Had they been fighting? But he hadn't heard any noise outside. "How did your discussion go? Have you reached an agreement? Can we settle the case today?" Candice bit her lip and lowered her chin. Then, she quickly excused herself, walked past Judge Fletcher, and left the room. Milton stared after her until she disappeared from sight. Judge Fletcher carefully observed Milton's expression. Since the plaintiff left abruptly, it was safe to assume they hadn't reached a consensus. "Mr.

Lopez, will you please post bail first? It's two hundred million." The bail was substantial because it was a criminal case. Milton glanced at Judge Fletcher and nodded in response. Then he took out his phone, tapped on Candice's missed call, and began editing her contact name. After a few seconds of thought, he deleted her entire contact name and replaced it with "Honey." He then put away his phone as if nothing had happened. Judge Fletcher spoke again, "What are your plans next, Mr. Lopez? There are still four months before the hearing. During that time, both parties must provide evidence.

If you can prove you were framed that night-" Milton interrupted before he could finish, "There will be no need for that. I will make her marry me before the hearing."

What was going on? What did Milton mean? The plaintiff and defendant would marry before the hearing? And then? What about the case? Would there still be a trial? Had he missed something important?

Did something happen in the room while he wasn't there? . . .
