Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Kitty obediently put down her brush and stood up.

Tony, however, couldn't stand up for a long time. His face looked flushed, and he said in a weak voice, "Sister Savannah, my head hurts."

Savannah thought he was faking his illness so as not to go to sleep, but when she touched his forehead, she knew something was wrong because his head was burning.

Tony was not in good health. He must have caught a cold, but he didn't tell anyone.

Fever was a big thing for children.

"Kitty, please inform the director that I'm taking Tony to the nearby hospital first!" Savannah picked Tony up and headed out, stopped a taxi at the door, and got in.

About ten minutes later, the car stopped at the hospital.

Savannah hurried into the hospital with Tony in her arms and checked in.

The doctor took Tony's temperature and gave him a shot of penicillin to bring down the fever.

Savannah accompanied Tony in the infusion room. After a while, she was relieved to find that Tony's fever was finally brought down, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Just then, the director called her, "Savannah, how is Tony? Which hospital are you in? I'll be right here!"

The director was in poor health with old age; Savannah didn't want to trouble him to come here late at night. "Tony's fever was allayed, and the doctor said he is fine now. You don't need to come. I will bring him back later."

"Thank you, Savannah. You must be tired."

"It's alright."

Though she had lived in the orphanage for only half a year, everyone here was like her family.

Tony was ill, so it was normal for her to take care of her little brother.

When she hung up, she held Tony in her arms and patted him on the back gently. Her lids grew heavy, and she gradually fell asleep.

Her head fell forward, and she unconsciously let go of Tony, who almost fell to the ground!

She suddenly woke up when someone reached his arms to catch Tony in time!

"Brother Kevin? What are you doing here…" Savannah opened her eyes, surprised to see Kevin in front of her. He was in a black coat, thinner than before, and was staring at her tenderly.

"The director called and told me that Tony had a fever, and you took him to the hospital. He was worried about you and asked me to come here to take care of you." Tony was also Kevin's little apprentice, so the director also called him.

"Oh..." Savannah nodded and lowered her head again, avoiding his eyes. If it were not for Kevin, Tony would have been dropped on the ground.

"Let me hold him." Kevin knew that she had been holding Tony all night, and her arms must have been sore and stiff.

A nice warm feeling came inside of her, and she put Tony in his arms.

Kevin sat down next to her with Tony in his arms.

Silence fell upon them until Kevin opened his mouth after a long time, "Savannah, how are you?"

Savannah paused and forced herself to smile. "Fine."

"Then why did you go back to the orphanage late in the night?"

"I… I just stopped by and wanted to see the director, Tony, and Kitty…"

"Don't lie to me. When I saw you the last time in the orphanage, you were unhappy because Devin betrayed you. What about this time?" Kevin's voice became gentle but firm.

Why could Kitty and Kevin read her mind?

Was it because those closely involved cannot see clearly?

Savannah smiled bitterly, but her voice insisted: "Kevin, nothing really..."

Kevin interrupted, "He is bad to you?"

The simple sentence made her eyes moist, and her disquiet boiled over in front of her brother Kevin.

She looked like a wronged child.

In front of Kevin, she could always vent her feelings without worry.

Kevin saw clearly her manner and knitted his brows. "I restrained myself with difficulty from taking you away from Dylan Sterling because I convinced myself that he might be nice to you. But now that he makes you cry, I'll have no reason to make myself believe that you will be happy with him! You don't have to stay with him, Savannah. Just leave him, and don't worry about me. Leave him, and I will protect you."

Savannah swallowed her tears when she heard that. How could she trouble Kevin again because she was out of sort?

After her three uncles were fired, she got to know Dylan better and better. He would do anything if she went against him.

He said that if she broke the agreement, he would destroy the Schultz's factory and send Kevin back to prison.

"Brother Kevin, it's really not him. I'm just in a bad mood today, but it's about work…" She tried to find an excuse.

Kevin was silent for a long time when he saw that she was unwilling to tell the truth. Finally, he said gently, "Remember, if anything has occurred to distress you, just tell me. I will always be your last harbor."

Tears rose in Savannah's throat and slowly burned their way to her lids. She ground her teeth to resist an impulse to cry in his arms.

Maybe she did a lot of good things in her previous life, to have a brother like Kevin standing behind her now.

Sadly, besides her, there was already another man who had her under his thumb...

"By the way, Kevin, has Dylan gotten JK in trouble recently?" At the thought, she couldn't help asking.

"No." Kevin smiled grimly. She dared not leave because she was afraid that Dylan would seek revenge against him.

Just then, Tony woke up and began to cry.

They were busy lulling Tony and said nothing more.

The night grew deeper, and Savannah became weary and sleepy. She spent half the day in the resort and half the night in the hospital; she was really tired but still forced herself to stay awake.

Now Kevin came, she was not alone, and with a feeling of safety, she finally closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Kevin looked at her lovely face complacently, her thick lashes down, her lips full and red. He raised his hand over her shoulder and then gently led her head to his shoulder.

***

Arcadia resort.

In the broad courtyard, there came a burst of heart-rending screams.

"Ah----ah---- please spare me, Mr. Sterling! I really didn't know the small model was yours! Ahhh----- Mr. Sterling, I didn't take advantage of Miss Schultz! Release me, please!"
