Chapter 569:
After struggling for a moment, she couldn’t resist the lure of the scrumptious food.
She took the bowl from his hand, intending to eat the porridge.
However, her symptoms hadn’t completely subsided, causing her fingers to tremble slightly. The spoon rattled against the bowl with a crisp sound. Gritting her teeth, she tried to suppress the trembling, but it was futile.
Milton noticed her unusual behavior and swiftly reached out, covering the back of her hand.
“Let me feed you. Stay still.”
Milton took the bowl from Candice’s hand and fed her the porridge slowly.
Knowing how stubborn she was, he didn’t say a word until she finished the porridge.
Candice took a piece of tissue from the bedside table and wiped her lips.
She looked away and said, “Get out. I want to get dressed.” She was currently naked, with only her quilt covering her body. She pulled up her quilt, leaving only her eyes exposed. He must have seen her just now. However, she couldn’t control her relapses. She knew it would take her at least two or three days to recover from the stimulation.
Milton frowned. Suddenly, he sat on the edge of her bed and pulled her into his arms.
Candice was about to struggle when Milton said in a low voice, “Don’t move. I won’t do anything.”
He held her in his arms and gently stroked her smooth back.
He used to despise fragile-looking girls, as, for all his life, these girls tried to act weak to get close to him. He was disgusted by the sight of this pretense.
However, recently, he realized that he had double standards when it came to Candice.
She had two sides. People unfamiliar with her would think she was a sharp, capable, and eloquent lawyer. However, when they got to know her better, they would discover another side—fragile and helpless with a miserable past.

Every time Candice showed her weakness, he would feel an endless desire to protect her and an urge to possess her.
Just like now, when she was curled in his arms like a cat. He felt sexually aroused. He tried his best to restrain himself. He must be crazy to have such an evil thought. He couldn’t believe the type he hated the most seemed most attractive to him now.
Perhaps it was simply because she was Candice. No matter what kind of person she was, he would feel attracted to her.
Candice could no longer resist his strength. Through the thin quilt, she felt his warm body against hers.
Miraculously, she calmed down gradually.
She gradually stopped trembling and became quiet even without taking her medicine.
He seemed to have the power to heal her. It was ridiculous, as he was also one of the people who had hurt her. Was she so desperate for love that her heart could be fixed with just a little care? She clearly knew that all these concerns were superficial. He had made her lose her child, her only family. Her mind was in chaos.
