Chapter 671:
Upon Milton’s arrival, Sigrid’s face brightened, her gaze filled with admiration for him. Her spirits lifted. Ultimately, Milton had to respect the prestige of their families.
She quickly instructed the waiter, “Bring an extra set of utensils.”
“No need,” Milton declined promptly. “Just here to say hello. I won’t be staying.”
Sigrid’s hope was shattered once more. His demeanor was too perfunctory. He seemed distracted. His thoughts were undoubtedly fixated on that bitch, Candice. The memory of him embracing Candice in her presence was infuriating.
Sigrid had noticed Candice’s black outfit for the evening. It was the most recent award-winning creation of the Royal Garden Corporation, a snug and flawless piece. The garment impeccably accentuated Candice’s physique. Sigrid was envious. She hadn’t anticipated Candice’s figure to be that attractive.
This bitch must have lured Milton with her physical appeal.
She continually reminded herself that men eventually grow weary of women. She was a noble virgin and needed to behave accordingly.
At the dinner, Erica greeted, “Paisley, it’s been a while. You look different, even better-looking.”
Paisley brushed her bangs aside and replied, “That’s so nice of you.”
“How long are you planning to stay this time?” Erica inquired again.
“Not too long. I’ll be departing the day after tomorrow. To be frank, the Olson family encountered a problem in Ploville.” Paisley feigned a sigh.
“Oh, what kind of problem?” Erica questioned.
“Well, you know how it is. When your operations expand, legal entanglements are inevitable. This one’s a bit tricky. By the way, I heard that all the disagreements and private assets of the Gonzalez Group have been settled effectively. Moreover, your attorney performed admirably, reclaiming substantial losses and warding off potential issues. Who possesses such remarkable skills? Could you introduce this attorney to me?” Paisley requested with a smile.

Erica was taken aback. Naturally, her cases were overseen by Candice.
But it wasn’t quite appropriate for her to disclose this. The recent scene of Milton embracing Candice suggested an intimate bond between them. She was well aware that Paisley’s visit to Ploville was to discuss a potential marital alliance between their families. However, Erica had no intention of merging through matrimony. She was contemplating how to politely decline without causing any discord within the families.
She hadn’t met Paisley in several years, and the Paisley standing in front of her seemed different, not aligning with her previous memories. Paisley used to radiate purity, vivacity, and happiness. However, now her face bore the obvious signs of excessive cosmetic enhancements, especially hyaluronic acid treatments.
Erica cleared her throat, attempting to respond, “Well…”
Paisley shot a quick, piercing look at Milton, then back to Erica. During her stay in Ploville, she had already gathered all the information she could about Milton, Erica, and Candice, including who handled Erica’s cases.
She deliberately brought it up. “Ah, the woman we just met, Milton’s private attorney, could it be her? Incredible! Such a young and talented professional!”
