How to get out of pause until date if target is achieved?

Question

Hi,
We are developing a SharePoint Designer 2013 platform workflow on Office 365 SharePoint Online. Following is what we are trying to achieve:
Document Library workflow.
There are 3 users involved e.g. UserA, UserB and UserC.
There are 2 content types e.g. Notification Letter and Statement Method.
As soon as UserA uploads/adds a document the workflow kicks-off.
An email is sent to UserB where he verifies it and select a dropdown verification complete.
This workflow also kicks-off on item change hence it creates a task process and assign UserC a task.
If UserC rejects the task, the email is sent to UserB and he has to resubmit.
However if UserC approves it then it goes to the approval folder.
In the above process we need to have reminders/notifications to UserC. There are 3 reminders. As soon as the document is added the document should be sent to the approval folder within 30 days (cut off) from the item creation date. First reminder 7
days before the cut off date. Second reminder 2 days before the cut off date. Finally the last reminder on the cut off date itself.
If I set Pause Until Duration event then the workflow as expected doesn't do anything till the date. How to break the Pause Until Duration if the UserC approves the task within the date range before cut off date.
I was thinking of loop but couldn't figure out how to achieve it in a better way.
Thank you

Here the user break the pause duration using code. if you don't want to code means just split the workflow into two
One for managing approval
One for managing Email
So that the pause state in email workflow will not affect the approval workflow.
Also in Email workflow we have check the approval and moved status so it will not send the remainder mail to approved request
