Chapter 302
Chapter 302:
“If you want to terminate the contract with me, I won’t stop you, but at least help me deal with this case first. Will you withdraw the termination application? Please?”
Candice felt her wrist burning under Milton’s touch.
She looked up at him.
He was extremely persuasive.
His deep, magnetic voice was so bewitching she found herself agreeing in a daze.
“Okay.”
Only after saying that did Candice realize she had already made a promise.
Settling the case would take at least six months.
She didn’t know what might happen during that time.
Seeing that Candice agreed, Milton quickly took a piece of paper from the documents and handed her a pen.
Glancing at it, Candice saw it was a letter of consent to withdraw the termination application—Milton had already prepared it for her.
Now she couldn’t help but think that he had tricked her.
How scheming this man was!
But at that moment, Milton was close enough for her to feel the warmth radiating from his body. For some reason, it made her heart race and her breath come in short bursts. Every time they touched, Candice felt as if her mind was unraveling. She couldn’t think straight.
But she had already given him her word. She had crossed the point of no return. No amount of regret could free her from the situation she had put herself in.
What’s more, this was a case related to Erica. Candice had a good impression of Erica. Erica was very unlike the vicious Rachel. She was noble, elegant, gentle, and generous. Erica was a good woman.
Candice liked Erica because she reminded her of her late mother.

In the end, Candice grabbed the pen from Milton and ignored his intent gaze.
She signed her name on the letter of consent, officially agreeing to withdraw the termination of the contract.
From this moment, Candice was still Milton’s personal attorney.
After signing, Candice took out the documents she had just read again. “I have to write the defense today and submit it online before court opens tomorrow morning.”
“Are you sure? Aren’t you exhausted? You should take it easy. Forget it. This isn’t that important. There isn’t much to lose.”
Milton furrowed his brows and added, “Can’t the hearing take place over there?”
“It’s no trouble. I’ll sort it out and transfer the case back to Ploville, where our chances of winning are much higher.”
With that, Candice put on her game face and got to work.
