Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

"Yes," said Cooper, bowing his head.

Before their conversation ended, Savannah reacted and quickly turned, going downstairs quietly. She went back to the dining-room and found the maid cleaning the table.

"Miss Schultz? Didn\'t you deliver the food to Mr. old Sterling?" The maid took the tray from her hand and asked.

"I didn\'t see him. Forget it. Serve it later." Savannah\'s voice was a little abstracted.

The servant took the tray and left.

Savannah walked downstairs like a somnambulist, with an absent gaze, and went back to her own room. She shut the door and leaned her back against it, her legs shaking, and her cold face was streaming wet with tears.

When did she cry?

Fortunately, the maid didn\'t notice it, or the tears didn\'t run down until she went upstairs...

She ran a hand over her face, trying to wipe away her tears, but the tears would not cease.

She yielded to the overflow.

Just an hour ago, he was talking with her on the phone, telling her he was also nervous; he said he would send her to UCLA and discussed with her about the major, and he looked at her with fervent eyes, asking for a kiss from her...

But now, he left her and the unborn baby before the wedding and went to another city to see another girl...

He built a heaven for her by promising her the marriage, but then he made hell of heaven all of a sudden…

She was afraid, afraid that he would not come back, that he would regret their engagement even if he came back.

These days, she had been telling herself not to think about that girl. As long as he was at her side, she believed that he would forget that girl one day...

But the girl appeared so soon.

Was it all a dream?

She stumbled towards the bed and pulled out her cell phone. It almost slipped from her trembling hand several times. Finally, she tried to calm down and dialed his number.

The person you have called is unavailable right now. Please try again later.

His phone was turned off.

Maybe he had flown to Chicago and was with that girl now.

They must have much to say to each other that he had no time to listen to her phone call, right?

Her heart wrenched.

Just then, a knock came at the door, and Cooper\'s voice was heard, "Miss Schultz."

Savannah pulled herself back, wiped the tears from her face, and bestirred herself. Taking a deep breath, she moved to the door and pulled it open, forcing a smile, "Cooper, what\'s up?"

For pride or something, she didn\'t want them to find out that she had known it.

Cooper looked at her with pity in his eyes, his voice soft, "Miss Schultz, we\'re going to send you back to your house in Green Bay tomorrow noon, please prepare yourself.

Savannah held back her tears with difficulty and nodded. "Yes, I know."

Could the wedding still be held as scheduled?

The groom might not even be able to come back.

About noon the next day, the driver was in the car waiting for Savannah in the courtyard.

Old Sterling personally sent Savannah out of the door. "Take care of Savannah," he said to Sophie, who was going with Savannah. Then he looked at her and said kindly, "Savannah, have a good rest for one night. Dylan will pick you up the next morning."

"All right." Savannah gave old Sterling a weak smile and nodded.

All through lunch, old Sterling behaved as usual and did not mention that Dylan had flown to Chicago last night.

Everything was quiet in the house as if nothing had happened, and the wedding would take place as scheduled.

She knew that old Sterling didn\'t want her to be worried and upset, so she just let it go.

She climbed into the car with Sophie. As the car pulled out of the gate, old Sterling\'s face tightened again. He turned to Cooper and asked in anxiety, "where\'s Dylan now? Have you connected with him?"

Cooper immediately came forward and whispered, "Yes, I got through to the young master just now."

"Did you tell him to come back soon? He\'s going to pick up the bride tomorrow morning! Come back today, or he\'ll be late!"

"I told him, and he said he knows what to do."

Old Sterling was not satisfied with his reply, but his son always knew the distance. "Call him again and urge him to come back within today!"

"Yes, sir."

Green Bay.

When she returned to her old home, Savannah didn\'t have to keep up the pretense any longer. She locked herself into her room without a word.

Garcia sensed that something was wrong. Savannah\'s wedding was going to be held tomorrow, and she should be very happy. Even if she felt nervous, her behavior was too strange.

However, Sophie, from the Sterling family, didn\'t know what happened, and Garcia could only let Savannah alone.

It was a hard night.

Savannah didn\'t know how she spent the night. She tossed on the bed and woke up many times from nightmares.

When she finally fell asleep again, she was awakened by the fetal movement and could not sleep anymore. It was about five in the morning.

The baby seemed more restless than ever. Was the baby also aware of her emotions?

She took a deep breath and touched her belly, forcing a smile, "be good, baby, your father will come to pick us up in a few hours. We can see him soon."

She kept whispering to the baby and to herself.
