Chapter 910
Chapter 914:
As she confirmed the accuracy of every piece of information, a profound sense of relief washed over her.
She realized that her worries had been excessive.
Candice suddenly erupted into laughter—a torrent of sound that seemed to pour from the depths of her soul, as though she had momentarily lost her mind.
For far too long, she had been tormented by these lingering fears, plagued by doubts about her own mother and manipulated by Greyson’s insinuations.
The absurdity of it all became painfully clear.
She had even entertained the ridiculous idea that she and Milton might be siblings, trapped in a constant state of fear and guilt.
Shouldn’t it have been Erica, if anyone, who harbored such concerns and opposed their relationship from the start?
After days of inner turmoil, Candice finally felt the sweet release of peace.
Tossing her phone aside, she turned her gaze to Milton.
Milton had always been a light sleeper, but this morning, his slumber was particularly deep.
Sunlight poured softly into the room, casting a pale golden glow across the white pillow, illuminating his handsome profile.
His sharp features were perfectly defined—thick eyebrows above a high, elegant nose, and lips that were both noble and unruly.
He exuded a charm that could disarm anyone, the kind of man that seemed to exist only in dreams.
Candice found herself drawn in, utterly bewitched.
An intimate memory flashed across her mind, one that deepened her infatuation.
Every time she took the initiative, Milton responded with gratifying eagerness, reinforcing the magnetism between them.
A surge of bashfulness rose in her chest, and she unconsciously clutched at the bedsheet, her cheeks flushed with a delicate hue.

She couldn’t help but be increasingly captivated by him.
Could a man so perfect truly belong to her?
Why should she shrink back because of Sigrid or Paisley?
She had to fight for her own happiness.
With these thoughts racing through her mind, Candice suddenly found herself rising and approaching Milton.
Slowly, she wrapped her arms around him, enveloping him in a gentle embrace.
Tenderly, she pressed her lips against his, savoring the sweet connection they shared.
Milton had never experienced the sensation of being awakened by a kiss before.
At first, he thought it was part of a dream, instinctively responding to Candice’s affectionate gesture. As the feeling deepened, he slowly opened his eyes, only to find Candice’s face right before him.
