Chapter 294:
But instead, she hadn’t even heard what he said?!
She was absent-minded, completely lost in her own world!
After responding to Greyson, Candice hung her head in shock as she realized she had accidentally sent the unfinished message.
The message read, “Don’t call me. Wait for me tonight.”
Candice had intended to add, “I’ll call you when I get off work.” However, while listening to Greyson, her finger accidentally tapped the screen and sent the incomplete message.
Ugh, she had actually asked Milton to wait for her tonight. The words were so suggestive that Candice couldn’t help but blush.
Just then, Greyson repeated his words. “I said I’ve decided to fulfill your wish and restore our marriage. Are you satisfied now? We can do it this afternoon.”
Candice bit her lip and tried to quickly retract the message under the table, but it was too late.
In response, Milton sent a “hug” emoji and the word “okay.”
“Damn it!” Candice muttered under her breath. As expected, Milton had misunderstood her message.
Finally, Greyson noticed something was wrong. He stood up and looked down at her, realizing she had been texting and ignoring him.
“Who are you talking to?” he asked, clearly irritated.
Candice locked her phone and replied curtly, “I was answering a client’s legal questions. Mr. Harman, lunch break is still work time, and I’m very busy.”
She decided to ignore her earlier mistake and tossed her phone into her bag.
Then she looked up at Greyson. She had caught part of what he had said.
He acted as though he was superior to her, as if it were a great honor for her to be married to him.
It was an insult.

Candice should have been angry, but she wasn’t—perhaps because she had been messaging Milton. Instead, she remained calm.
“Aren’t you going to marry Madilyn?” she asked with a smile.
“No,” Greyson replied, frowning.
Candice was a little taken aback by his direct admission. She hadn’t expected him to be so upfront.
Greyson glanced at his watch and said, “Let’s head straight to court after lunch. I’ve already spoken with the judge.”
True to his word, he pulled a blue velvet box from his pocket and opened it to reveal a dazzling diamond ring.
Under the bright lights, it sparkled with colorful light.
He offered the ring to Candice and said, “I owed you a ring.”
Last time, he had thrown away the necklace he bought for her. After some thought, he decided to buy a ring instead. He had never given her anything like this before.
