Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

"...As for Alexander, when did I treat him like a son... we must take his company over... We're doing him a favor... Even if he dies outside, it will have nothing to do with me!"

The recording stopped abruptly.

Everyone froze in shock.

Although they had been really curious about what else Gary could say, they hadn't expected the father and son would be so shameless!

How could they say they were doing Alexander a favor when they tried to take over his company? Allen and Alexander were both Gary's sons. Gary could even take all the responsibility for Allen, but he could say such cold-blooded words that even if Alexander died outside, it had nothing to do with him.

"Good Heavens! Is Gary Christopher really Alexander's father? How could a father be so partial!"

"He isn't just partial! He is so inhuman! He's worse than a beast! He actually had the face to say Alexander is cold-blooded!"

"Alexander's father is so terrible. Even if he did something bad to the Christopher family, I think Gary deserves it!"

***

The recording had made everyone take Alexander's side. What Gary had done really pissed everyone off. As a father, he was so cold-hearted to his children, which was not acceptable to anyone.

"No, it's not like that..." Gary's face turned pale as he struggled and said. "These recordings are fake, fake...".

However, who would trust him?

Over, everything was over... Gary had known that because he was Alexander's father, he had an innate advantage in morality. However, after the recordings were made public, no one would believe his words anymore.

"Alexander Christopher!" Gary seemed to grasp at the last straw and yelled. "Even if I framed you and I didn't regard you to be my son, what can you do to me? I'm still your father! This is the fact that you can't change. Do you want to take revenge on me? You'll be unfilial if you do anything to me!"

Everyone was shocked at his impudence.

Gary actually dared use his identity as Alexander's father to blackmail him after he had done so many cheeky things?

Just then, a clear voice came. "But that doesn't mean I won't do something to you!"

Everyone couldn't help looking back.

Seeing Heather coming, they hurried to make way.

Heather walked to Alexander. She reached out her little hand and took his large palm lightly.

She had heard the recordings.

She was really angry and sad for Alexander. How could such a man be called a father?

Alexander was his biological son. Even if Gary had done something so cheeky, if Alexander did something bad to the Christopher family, someone might say he was cruel.

However, she was different. She wouldn't watch Alexander being bullied.

Alexander softly squeezed her palm, indicating that he was fine.

She took a deep breath, looked at Gary, and spoke coldly, "Remember what I'm saying now. Mr. Christopher, since you and your son dared to drug me, then Denmark's family will definitely pursue this matter! From now on, whoever dares to help Christopher Technologies will be considered to be the Denmark family's enemy!"

Her cold words were loud and clear, but instead of thinking Heather was using power to bully the Christopher family, everyone felt very comfortable and delighted.

"You, you can't do that!" Gary's face turned paler as he bellowed in disbelief. "I, I am Alexander Christopher's father! I'm telling you, I forbid you to pursue this matter!"

"You're Alex's father, but does it have anything to do with me?" Heather looked at him coldly and said. "Do I owe you a debt of gratitude, or have you raised me? How can you forbid me from pursuing it?"

Everyone looked at Heather with appreciation, and their hearts were filled with admiration. Such a nice girl... Why could something as good as this not happen to them?

Gary's heart was filled with despair.

Heather's words made it impossible for him to refute. He looked at Alexander with a last glimmer of hope. "Alex, I'm your father. You should control her, stop her..."

Alexander looked at him coldly, "Mr. Christopher, you renounced me sixteen years ago, so now we are related to each other in nothing but blood."

All the guests were tremendously shocked.

Once again, they really felt that they were right to be here tonight because they could watch such a wonderful drama.

It was the first time that Alexander had publicly acknowledged his family ties, but his family members were such an eye-opener. When they had thought the Christopher family were shameless enough, Gary and his son could always refresh their three views and show them what was more shameless!

Sixteen years ago, Alexander was seven or eight. Gary was very cold-blooded as he actually had cut ties with a kid who was only seven or eight years old. Alexander could have accused him of the crime of abandonment!

Facing everyone whose eyes were filled with condemnation, Gary tried hard to explain. "Well, I, I was muddled for a moment..."

Alexander cut him short with an indifferent air, "Mr. Christopher, I will make it clear that from today on, the honors, disgraces, ups or downs will be none of my business! Besides, whoever goes against the Denmark family is going against me!"

Hearing this, everyone thought Alexander was very handsome and strong.

Sure enough, even if such a good man had such rogue relatives, he wouldn't be trapped by them.

People had just thought that because Heather stood up for him so much, Alexander was too lucky for he was able to be with Heather. However, didn't Alexander also stand up for Heather now?

Alexander had said so because he hadn't wanted Heather to bear such a heavy burden. Now it was clear that Alexander and Heather were very good to each other and loved each other very much.

"Alexander Christopher, you can't be so cold-hearted..." Gary shouted in despair.

Everyone looked at him with disdain. Such a cold-hearted person actually had to face to say his son was cold-hearted? Alexander waved calmly. "Send Mr. Christopher away."

"When you go home, remember to wait for the summons," Heather said coldly.

Gary and Allen were ashen-faced. How could they not know that Alexander would not go easy on them anymore?

After Alexander's bodyguards drove the father and son out of the hotel, all the guests went downstairs to celebrate Grandpa Joseph's birthday.

Alexander and Heather sat in the corner, holding hands.

"Didn't I tell you not to show up?" he asked with resignation.
