Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Robert's bodyguard had never seen anyone dare to act so violently to the governor. He growled out a warning, threatening Dylan with his guns. However, Robert glanced at him and signaled him to step back.

"If you don't believe me, you can have your men search the whole place. You can also search for all my properties. If Miss Schultz was still in LA, you would have found her sooner or later. I didn't lie to you. She had really gone and of her own free will. Kevin didn't force her." Robert said slowly under Dylan's icy stare.

Dylan held his breath. She went away with another man of her own will?

In the car on his way to Balfour Sanatorium, he found lots of excuses for her. Maybe she was just angry at him for delaying the wedding, so she intentionally went out with Kevin for a few days in order to let him feel the same as she did. He thought she would go back to him in the end anyway...

However, his thought seemed so ridiculous now.

She left the country with Kevin together.

"Where are they?" Dylan grabbed Robert by the collar, yanking him up.

It must be Robert who secretly helped them to leave the country.

He had arranged for people looking for Savannah at all the airports, railway stations, and ports in LA, and he would be informed if Savannah bought a ticket with her passport. She could not leave the country through normal procedures.

Only Robert could do it.

Her departure had been well arranged.

Robert kept calm in the face of his anger. "What are you going to do? Go find her and bring her back? You can get her body back but not her heart! If you really love her, you won't force her, will you? As I said, Miss Schultz went abroad with Kevin of her own will. There's no coercion. You know nobody can force her to do anything she doesn't want to do."

A feeling of sharp psychological pain came to Dylan, but he was immovable. "I prefer violence. Just tell me where she's gone, or—" Dylan sneered and threatened him coldly, like a red-eyes beast, "you don't want to serve another term as governor."

Although the Smith family was a political family, many factors influenced his reelection. Besides the help from its in-laws in the political circle, there was also the financial support from huge financial groups like the Sterling group. If the Sterling family really wanted to have a fight with the Smith family, there was a good chance.

Robert's bodyguard had never seen his master be treated like this. He was about to separate them when Robert took out a mobile phone and indicated the bodyguard to hold it.

The bodyguard understood immediately. He took the phone, tapped the screen, and then handed it to Dylan.

"Since you don't believe me, please watch this video first. If you insist on getting Miss Schultz back after that, I'll let you know," said Robert, looking at the madman before him.

Dylan narrowed his eyes, and after a moment, he freed one hand to take the phone. The video had been selected. He pressed the play icon, and the video got started.

A familiar girl's voice caught Dylan's attention.

"Kevin, come here! Look, irises here! Are they the same as those in our orphanage?"

On the lawn outside Balfour Sanatorium, Savannah, wearing a baggy white gown, laughed and waved to the phone camera.

Apparently, it was Kevin behind the phone.

Savannah picked an iris in the meadow, ran to Kevin, and put it on his ear. As Kevin laughed and dodged, the camera moved, and the video picture distorted.

Of a sudden, Dylan's heart wrenched.

She smiled so happily, not a bit sad or constrained.

Even if she had decided to leave him and divorce him, at least she should be a little distressed and lost, right?

But she was clearly relaxed and happy these days at Balfour Sanatorium, much brighter than when she was at his side.

Her smile was so pure and hearty as if she didn't even remember him.

When Dylan's grasp relaxed, Robert stepped back and straightened his collar. Then he looked at Dylan.

This video was taken yesterday.

Savannah felt much better and wanted to get some fresh air, so Kevin took her for a walk on the lawn.

Robert was a man. He understood that the video was a lethal blow to the proud man, much more useful than his words.

A moment later, Robert took a deep breath and said, "Miss Schultz left one thing for you."

Dylan stared sullenly at Robert.

Robert gestured to the bodyguard, who got the message and walked quickly into the building. After a while, he came out with something in his arms.

Garwood startled when he saw clearly what was in the guard's arms. It was a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes!

By the gate light, all the people present stared at the new-born baby in silent wonder. The small baby was sucking its thumb and sleeping soundly, not knowing what was happening to the two powerful men. Though he closed his eyes, the line of his nose and the shape of his small mouth was obviously the living image of Mr. Sterling!

Was the baby just given birth by Miss Schultz? It should be Mr. Sterling's baby that Savannah had given birth to.

Dylan's face changed suddenly.

His attention was engaged by the bright smile on her face when he watched the video. Then he remembered that her belly had been flat under her loose gown!

"The baby's prematurely born. Luckily he's very healthy." Robert looked at him.

That was what she left for him? What did this mean? A parting gift?

Or was she afraid the baby would affect her future happiness with Kevin?

In order to get a clean break with him, she even gave the baby back to him! Clenching his fist, Dylan's gaze gradually flew at the tiny baby that was his flesh and blood.
