Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Edmond adored her as a goddess, and she knew it well.

This man could do a lot for her if she made good use of him. He often showed his affection to her, yet Charlotte's heart belongs to Dylan. She dreams to become Dylan's wife no matter what way she'll take.

On the day of the final, Savannah was having her breakfast when she received a text message from Kaiden.

"Come on, mommy! I believe you will win first! I've booked a restaurant for you to celebrate!"

His cute words cheered Savannah up. She can't help not to smile. Her young boy resembled his father. She knew Dylan has been doing his best to become a great example of their son.

After breakfast, she dressed, took a satchel on her back, and went out.

At the gate of the community, Kevin was waiting for her in the car.

Savannah greeted him with a smile and got in.

When they arrived at the exhibition center, Savannah got off and waved goodbye to Kevin.

"I'm gonna go, Kevin. I'll call you after the contest."

"Do you want me to wait for you here?" Kevin smiled.

"No. I'll be nervous. I got through the second round alone, right?" Savannah laughed. She didn't mention what happened in the semi-finals to Kevin because she didn't want him to worry.

Not far away, Charlotte and Katrina stood by a red Toyota Highlander, watching their talking.

Charlotte squinted as Kevin drove away. The man who sent Savannah here must be Kevin Wills, the man who took her away and lived with her in Italy for three years.

Kevin and Savannah were really close.

"Oh, this bitch never stops flirting with other men while she haunts your man," Katrina said acidly.

Without a word, Charlotte just beckoned her best friend to catch up with Savannah.

Savannah slowed down after she entered the exhibition hall.

"Miss Schultz!"

Footsteps resounded presently upon the marble pavement of the hall within.

Savannah paused, looked back, and saw Katrina walking to her.

Surprised, Savannah didn't answer her. After the theft incident, it was somewhat embarrassing to see her.

"Um, Miss Schultz, you're not still mad at me for that, are you? Elliott said it was just a misunderstanding. Oh, I forgot to congratulate you for advancing to the final." Katrina smiled.

"Congratulations to you too, Miss Kaif. You're early." Savannah said drily.

"Well, my best friend came to LA to see me. Knowing that I have a contest this morning, she came early and sent me here. Let me introduce her to you, and perhaps we can be friends in the future." Katrina smiled as she took Charlotte's arm.

Savannah then noticed that the girl next to Katrina looked familiar.

She seemed to have seen her somewhere.

Oh, yes, she met this girl the other day when she went to the library.

"This is Charlotte Rowe. Oh, she's from the Rowe family. Do you know the Rowe group? It's well known in Chicago." Katrina said slowly as she studied Savannah's expression.

Savannah was stunned for a moment.

Charlotte? The heiress of the Rowe group?

Wasn't she the girl Dylan had been looking for?

It was for this girl that Dylan abandoned her before their wedding day?

She couldn't remember who Charlotte was. Today, she finally saw her.

Different from what she had imagined, Charlotte didn't look much like her.

Since she used to be Charlotte's replacement, she thought she and Charlotte would look alike, but now it seemed that they didn't have much in common.

Charlotte was fair-skinned, beautiful, and sweet, with clear, big eyes, like an innocent and pure princess who was well protected by her family.

She didn't know that Charlotte was Katrina's best friend.

"Charlotte's well-bred and beautiful, and she's been pursued by many men." Katrina glanced at Savannah and continued, "but she refused them all. Only the top man is worthy of her."

Savannah understood immediately. A faint smile played on her lips.

She wondered why Katrina suddenly stopped her and even introduced her best friend to her.

Obviously, Katrina knew that she was Charlotte's rival in love, and she praised Charlotte in front of her deliberately.

The real purpose of Charlotte, who accompanied Katrina to the finals today, was to see her, right?

"Oh, I see. Miss Rowe does look great." Savannah gave Charlotte a gentle look.

Katrina frowned. She was about to say something to irritate Savannah when Charlotte signaled her with a wink.

"Katrina, I want to talk to Miss Schultz alone."

Katrina nodded and went in first.

Charlotte looked at Savannah, and then she smiled.

"Miss Schultz, I think you already know who I am."

"You come to me today." Savannah nodded and said quietly.

"Yeah. I learned from Katrina that Miss Schultz took part in this designer competition, and then I knew you're back. So, I come from Chicago to see you."

From Chicago? Was Charlotte not in LA these years?

She thought Dylan would have been with Charlotte after she went to Italy.

"You just want to see me? Or you're afraid that I'm getting too close to Dylan?" Savannah was frank in her questions.

Charlotte was surprised at Savannah's straightforward way. But since she was so frank, she could be frank with her too.

"Miss Schultz, are you back for the competition only?"

"You're right," Savannah replied calmly, "The only reason I came back was to participate in the competition. I'll leave when the contest was over. You can rest assured. No matter what happened to Dylan and me three years ago, we're strangers now."

It was obvious what Charlotte was up to. She was just nervous that she was gonna get back together with Dylan, wasn't she?

It seemed that Charlotte had not been with Dylan these three years, but she never gave him up and was still obsessed with him.

Charlotte took her as her love rival and worried that she would make it up with Dylan. But in fact, she didn't want to get into the love triangle, which might hurt her again.
