Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

"Yes, officer, please investigate the case again. Olivia couldn't have fallen downstairs for no reason!" Matt was not convinced too.

A trace of impatience showed on the officer's face. "We checked the girl's background. She doesn't have any enemies, and she's just a model, not a head of state. Who's going to murder her?" Then he turned and left.

Savannah watched the police leave with clenched fists. She didn't believe Olivia had fallen herself.

If Olivia was murdered, how could they let the murderer go free?

She had been framed, and she knew the feeling of powerlessness and bitterness when an injustice that could not be righted.

Olivia must be painful if she had been pushed downstairs by others but couldn't say it out now!

After seeing Olivia in the ward for a moment, she got up and left.

Out of the hospital, she stood on the side of the road with a heavy heart for a long time.

Not far away, the Sterling's bodyguard came up to Savannah when she saw her standing rooted to the ground, afraid that she might have an accident. "Miss Schultz, what happened? Where do you want to go now?

Awakened by his voice, Savannah looked up, startled for a moment, and then began to look for a taxi.

"Miss Schultz, where are you going now? Back to the Sterling's house?" The bodyguard asked.

Savannah looked straight at the comings and goings of the cars on the road and answered, "the city police station!"

The bodyguard was amazed, "the city police? Why?"

Just at that moment, a taxi stopped, and Savannah didn't have time to say more. She got in the car and slammed the door.

The bodyguard looked at the car driving away, took a breath, and then hurriedly called Mr. Sterling.

"Sir, Miss Schultz came out of the hospital and went to the city police."

The Los Angeles Police Department.

It was the first time for Savannah to come to this place. When she was wronged by Valerie last time, Susan asked two officers to arrest her but was in time stopped by Dylan, so she didn't come here at last.

She didn't expect that, for the sake of her best friend, she came today.

Taking a deep breath, she walked to the front desk. "Excuse me."

"Register here." The reception didn't lift his head.

"No, I'm here... to ask for the surveillance video for a case," Savannah said calmly.

"What do you mean?" The front officer looked up in surprise.

"My friend Olivia was seriously injured days before, and the police thought she had done it herself, so they closed the case. But I don't agree. I think it was an attempted murderer, and I want to get the surveillance video that night and investigate it myself."

The officer paused for a moment, then burst out laughing, "are you kidding? Miss, this is the police station, not your home! When the police reached a conclusion on a case, it can't be doubted! What's more, who are you? How can I give physical evidence like surveillance video to you?!"

"But this case really has a lot of doubtful points! If you don't want to make more investigation, I'll do it myself!" Savannah was worried.

"Enough, Miss! This is the police station, if you keep harassing us with unreasonable demands, don't blame us for being rude to you!" The officer raised his tone!

"Unreasonable demands? I just want to know the truth!" Savannah didn't give up.

"You are obstructing official business in this way, you know?" As he said this, two uniformed officers approached at once.

"I beg you to reinvestigate it, please!" Savannah, regardless of the two strong men, said earnestly.

The two police officers looked at each other and were ready to grab Savannah by her shoulders. At that moment, sonorous footsteps came, accompanied by a man's cold and emphatic voice,

"Who dares touch her?"

The policemen present were all struck dumb.

The coming man was dressed in a pure black suit, tall, broad-shouldered, and slim. He was endowed with a noble and dignified manner, which made him sterner than the policemen. His dark eyes now flared with anger, falling coldly on the officers.

The two police officers paused and gasped when they saw the man in front of them clearly.

Dylan Sterling!

Dylan walked to Savannah, held her hand, and pulled her to his side. "Why come to this place alone?" His tone was stern.

She could feel his displeasure and anger and knew that she had made him unhappy. "I... I want to reinvestigate Olivia's case..." she murmured.

"Investigation is the job of the police." He said more sharply.

The little woman became bolder that she dared to go to the police station by herself.

If the bodyguard hadn't notified him or he had failed to arrive in time, she might have been hailed in the police station.

"But the police concluded that Olivia fell downstairs on her own. I can't believe it. I want to investigate it myself!" Savannah said stubbornly. Then she pulled his sleeve, "Dylan, please, help me..."

As long as he could speak for her, the police wouldn't refuse him!

Dylan glanced at the woman with a frown.

Just then, the police chief, who learned that Dylan was here, came out to see him, "Mr. Sterling --"

Then his eyes fell on Savannah. He remembered the girl, who was kidnapped and almost sold to Mexico. In order to save this girl, Mr. Sterling almost turned the whole world over and flew to Mexico personally! Thinking of this, he hurriedly scolded the officers. "What are you doing? What did you do to Miss Schultz?"

The three officers understood immediately that the girl had a strong relationship with Mr. Sterling. They took a breath and said, "Sir... this woman... this young lady wants the surveillance video for a case. We told her that surveillance video is important physical evidence and can't be given to her. But the lady insisted..."

The police chief learned the whole story and then turned to Savannah, "Miss Schultz, I'm sorry, surveillance video can't be shown to common people."

Hearing this, Savannah could only bite her lip. Seeing the disappointed look on her face, Dylan spoke and asked, "Am I a common person?"

The police chief paused and then reacted, "of course not! Mr. Sterling's a well-known figure of extraordinary status. It's our honor to have the case checked by people like you!"

Savannah was speechless. When she asked for the surveillance video, she was almost thrown into prison. Now Dylan wanted to interfere in the affair, he could even receive thanks from the police!

"Good. Then please took it out for me to have a look." Dylan's tone was authoritative.

"Get ready for Mr. Sterling!" The police chief ordered his subordinates and then turned to Dylan. "Mr. Sterling," he said, "please come with me."

Dylan glanced at Savannah and then strode in with the chief. Savannah opened her eyes in pleased surprise, hurrying over to them.

They followed the chief into the interrogation room, which had a 40-inch television, and the surveillance video was ready.
