Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Crystal started and restarted her phone, but she was still unable to edit her Contact List, so she posted her problem to Instagram, and within minutes she was flooded with suggestions.

Re: What is the phone model? Why can't you edit it? Try rebooting the phone and try again.

Re: Look at the manual and click on the Contacts. You are supposed to edit them directly from there.

Re: Show me the model.

Crystal took a picture with her old phone and added it to the comments, and the replies continued to fly in.

Re: Isn't this the latest and most expensive model?

Re: Yes. It's an iPhone Princess Plus!

Re: The phone is studded with diamonds!

Wow! It is so beautiful.

Re: It is inlaid with 318 expensive diamonds!

Re: Crystal, stop showing off!

Crystal was frustrated because the problem was being ignored. Now that she'd posted the photo, all anyone wanted to talk about was how expensive the phone was. "That's not the point at all," she wrote. "All I want to do is edit the Contact List. Do any of you know how to solve this problem?"

When it came to the critical question, nobody seemed to have a solution to her problem. In the end, "The Electronic Maniac" wrote: "I think there is something wrong with the program. You should contact a seller and ask them to solve it. By the way, did you buy it yourself, or did someone else give it to you?"

Crystal: "Someone gave it to me."

The Electronic Maniac: "He may have set this up intentionally. If so, he should have a program that would resolve the issue."

Crystal thought about that possibility and quietly turned off Instagram. If Nathan had tampered with her Contact List, she wondered if there were any other programs that he had tampered with. If so, she would not dare use the phone, not if she couldn't guarantee her privacy. Crystal sighed as she put the phone back in the box. Despite the new phone's fancy features, she preferred her old one.

Crystal had no classes in the morning, so she called Serenity and asked her to go with her to get her old phone fixed. Crystal had just woken Serenity up, but she agreed to go. "If you get there first," she said, "wait for me. I'll get up right now."

Serenity hung up and went back to sleep. Thus, Crystal arrived first.

The mobile phone store was in an old alley near her school. There was a big slate bluestone road, and the store was between two rows of old houses. Out of all the buildings in the downtown area, this was one of Crystal's favorites. It had been built in the 1800s, and it had been preserved because of its historical value.

As Crystal approached the store, a bicycle braked and stopped beside her. It was Frank. He looked at her and said, "Hey! Crystal, are you waiting for someone?"

Crystal: "I'm waiting for Serenity."

Frank: "My friend owns this store, and I happen to have business with him. Why don't I take you in? You can wait inside for Serenity."

"That is what I was going to do," Crystal said, and they went into the store together.

Other than the owner, Frank and Crystal were the only people in the store. The shop owner leaned on the counter and said, "Hey, Frank! Is this your girlfriend?"

Frank blushed and said, "Don't be ridiculous, Reg. She is my classmate. Her name is Crystal."

Crystal took out her cell phone and showed it to the shop owner. The shop owner was very polite, and he offered them some water to drink while he looked at the phone.

Crystal noticed that Frank was blushing, and she asked him if he was nervous. Frank said that he wasn't, but Crystal didn't believe him. "Why do you get so nervous every time you're with me?" Crystal asked.

Frank ignored the question. He turned around and said, "I'm going to go look at phone cases." He had only taken a few steps, though, when he stumbled and almost fell. To Crystal, he looked like a shy young boy with a childhood crush."

"Wait a minute!" Crystal said. "Could you do me a favor?"

Frank nodded, and Crystal walked up to him. "May I borrow your cell phone?" she asked.

Frank shrugged and said, "Sure." Then he took his phone out of his pocket, unlocked it, and handed it to Crystal.

As soon as Crystal had the phone, she turned on the camera, grabbed Frank, and asked, "Would you like to take a selfie with me." Frank was startled, and he pulled away. Crystal chuckled. "If you don't want to take a picture with me, I'll find someone else."

"I want to!" Frank sputtered. "You surprised me. That's all."

Frank stood next to Crystal, and she held up his phone to take the selfie. Then, after taking a few pictures, she paused to look through the album. She selected one that she was relatively happy with and posted it on Instagram, along with a photo of her broken phone and another of the iPhone Princess Plus that Nathan had given her. Beneath the images, she wrote, "All I that women want is a happy destination to call their own, or a mobile phone - whatever suits them best!"

Almost immediately, people began to comment on her post. Someone asked her what was going on, and another person wished her happiness. She waited for half an hour, and then she deleted the post. By then, she assumed that Nathan had seen the pictures, which had been the post's purpose. Once that was done, she deleted the photos from Frank's phone and handed them back to him.

.After examining Crystal's phone, the shop owner said, "I can fix this, but your mobile phone's accessories are out of stock. I can have them in by the end of the day. I hope that isn't too much of an inconvenience."

"It's fine," Crystal said. "I'll come and get it tonight.. Thank you."
