Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Suddenly, Chris walked through the door, and when Judy saw him, her eyes lit up. "Talk to you later! My darling has arrived!" she exclaimed, and then she ran to greet him.

Once she was gone, Eric wrapped his arms around Crystal. He laughed and said, "I knew you'd be fine. You're tough, and you don't put up with anyone's bullshit. That's my girl, you never failed my expectation,"

Nathan couldn't bear the sight of Crystal in another man's arms, so he grabbed her arm and pulled her towards himself. Eric would not let go, and she felt like they were tearing her in two.

"Stop it!" she cried. "You guys are hurting me! What are you guys doing here? I was told to come alone! You are fucking everything up! I didn't ask any help from both of you," she yelled, but the two men kept dragging her on both sides; no one wanted to give up.

"I was in the hospital," Eric explained. He let go of her arm and said, "I'm sorry if I hurt you. When I discovered that you were in danger, though, I had to come. I can't let you get hurt,"

Nathan let go of her other side and said, "It was the same for me." His eyes were on Eric, glaring at him.

Eric ignored Nathan and turned to Crystal, then said, "Now that I know that you're fine, I had better get back to the hospital."

Crystal: "Why do you need to go to the hospital? Are you okay?"

Eric hesitated for a moment, and then he said, "I am fine. It is my friend that is in the hospital."

Crystal gave Eric a quick hug and said, "Well, then; I guess you'd better get going. Thank you so much for being so concerned, but for next time, you should know that I can handle myself!"

Eric smiled, and before leaving, he leaned into her and whispered, "You're often in danger. I wish I could keep you at my side at all times. Please wait for me. I won't be long..."

Suddenly, Nathan grabbed Eric and yanked him away from Crystal. Then he glared at her and demanded to know what Eric had said.

"I didn't hear him clearly," Crystal replied. It was true. She hadn't understood his instructions.

"Go home and change your clothes," Nathan commanded. He couldn't stand the smell of Eric on her.

"Why?" Crystal sniffed her sleeves and said, "I'm clean."

"Don't be so defiant!" Nathan roared. "Just do as I say!"

Crystal was speechless. She had no idea that he could be so domineering.

Suddenly, all of her classmates began to cheer, and she turned around to see what all of the commotions were about. On the opposite side of the room, her peers had formed a circle around Judy and Chris, and Judy looked prouder than she'd ever seen her. Her chest was puffed out, and she looked like she was on top of the world.

Judy was smiling. "You guys are too kind," she said. "Louis also belongs to Starlight Entertainment, which is subordinate to the Brilliant Group. The company has signed up a lot of superstars. If you tell me who you like, I'll get you their autographed photographs."

Nathan looked at Crystal and smirked. "Did she help you just now?" he asked. "She hardly seems like the helping type."

"She did, though," Crystal replied. "She looks pretty vain, but she has a good heart.

She's the only one who helped me."

Nathan put his arm around Crystal's waist and led her towards Judy. "Then we will have to do something kind for her and Chris," he said. His bodyguards walked on either side of them and pushed her other classmates out of the way. Nathan's perfect figure was stunning, and everyone was shocked to see him with Crystal. As they passed through the group, Judy pointed him out to Chris and said, "Chris, this is Crystal's boyfriend. We met him at the concert. Do you remember? He took the stage and played a song!"

Judy turned to Crystal and said, "After the concert, Chris's agent talked to me. He said that he wanted to sign your boyfriend." She turned to Nathan and asked what he thought about that.

Nathan ignored Judy. He turned to Chris and said, "Starlight Entertainment has a big-budget production in the works. It is called Beyond the Sky. If you're interested, the lead role is yours."

Chris's face turned red. "I've heard about Beyond the Sky," he admitted. "But aren't there a lot of A-List actors vying for that role? I wouldn't want to embarrass myself, but thank you for thinking of me."

"Would you at least consider it?" Nathan took a card out of his pocket. He handed it to Chris and said, "Here is my business card."

Chris took the card out of politeness, and when he saw Nathan's name on it, he was stunned. He hadn't realized that Nathan was Nathan Davis, the president of Brilliant Group. He's my boss! - he realized in dismay. He immediately offered his hand to shake.

"President Davis," he said. "I'm sorry for not recognizing you."

Judy was as shocked as Chris was. "You're the President of the Brilliant Group?!?!" she exclaimed in near disbelief.

Instead of answering her question, Nathan looked at Chris and said, "Bring my business card to the office, and someone will arrange everything for you."

Chris thanked Nathan. He had never imagined that the company president would take a personal interest in him, and he was thrilled. What a lucky day! - he thought.

Now that everyone knew who Crystal's boyfriend was, they began to talk loudly amongst themselves. They had thought that she was a Sugar Baby, but it turned out that the truth was far more interesting than the rumors had been. And now that they knew who she was connected with, they were eager to please her.. They all regretted the bad things they'd said about her, and some people even wanted to lick the soles of her shoes.
