Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

"What's up?" Savannah saw the serious expression on his face.

"Nothing." Dylan took the phone back into his pocket, unbuckled Savannah, and led her into the villa.

Judy was even more delighted than Savannah when she learned that Savannah's injustice was righted.

"Justice has long arms," Judy laughed, "Mrs. Yontz is such a scheming woman! But Miss White was from a good family, it was really uncivilized for her to commit perjury. How could she be so ungracious?"

"Judy, cook Miss Schultz some food." Dylan interrupted Judy.

He didn't want Savannah to think about this anymore.

"Are you going out?" Savannah suddenly blurted out; it sounded like he would not stay here.

A ghost of a smile appeared on his lips, and his eyes were alight with humor as if he enjoyed her response.

"I... I don't mean that. I mean..." Savannah blushed. Was she afraid of his leaving?

"Okay, I know." Dylan squinted when he saw her trying to cover up her nervousness.

You know it? Savannah blushed even more brightly. She followed Judy into the room to avoid the embarrassment.

After the little woman entered the house, Dylan turned and got into the car, heading out of the Beverly Hills.

He stopped some way along the road.

On the pavement before him, a slim figure seemed to be waiting for a long time. Seeing the familiar car, she ran up to it.

The young woman was Abby.

When she heard what happened in the Sterling's house today, she was really psyched out.

Valerie's scheme was exposed.

What she did had been discovered, too.

Dylan now knew that she and Valerie had conspired to frame Savannah.

Then she summoned up her courage to come here and texted him just now. She wanted to explain to him face to face.

She didn't expect that he agreed to see her.

Since he still wanted to see her, he was not that angry, right? Maybe he could forgive her?

His presence lit new hope in her heart. She stood at the car window, looking longingly at the handsome man in the car.

"Dylan, I'm sorry, I know you are very angry… I can explain... It was Valerie who forced me to testify for her falsely. I didn't want to tell a lie!"

"You were forced?" Inside the car, Dylan snorted as he said in a sarcastic voice, "what could Valerie do to force you?"

By now, the woman was still looking for excuses.

Abby paused, knowing she couldn't quibble, and then she cried, "Yes. I admit that I had my own self-interest... But I just want you, and I don't want Savannah to be with you. Dylan, please forgive me this time. As long as you don't get angry, I can do anything..."

"Just do one thing." Dylan glanced at the woman crying out of the window.

Abby grabbed the edge of the window with both hands and nodded.

"Now go back and tell everyone on Twitter that you have wronged Savannah. You and Savannah have been having a few disagreements, and you spread rumors on the Internet because you wanted to avenge yourself on her." He had gotten the PR draft ready for her.

Tears froze on Abby's face.

Wouldn't that discredit her? She would lose lots of fans, and she was never going to live it down!

Dylan's dark eyes looked even colder when he saw her unwillingness.

"Well, I can also call your father and ask him to push you. If I speak to your father personally, you may have more trouble, and the White family will come to no good. Think it over." His voice was deadly cold.

Abby gazed at the man and clenched her fists.

The White family will come to no good?

He was going so far that he would not spare her family for Savannah?

Although the White had a good relationship with the Sterling, the White was far inferior to the Sterling in terms of financial situation. What's more, her family needed to rely on the Sterling in business.

According to ages, Dylan should call her father "Uncle White," but in fact, whenever her father met Dylan, he would respectfully call him Mr. Sterling.

If Dylan really took his anger out on the White family, he would not be softhearted.

By then, she would become a sinner in her family, and her father would surely resent her for offending Dylan.

In the end, she still had to clarify the matter on the Internet.

As the daughter of a rich family, the most terrible thing was to annoy the family's head. Her pocket money and her position in the family would be at risk at that time.

There was little choice.

Finally, Abby gritted her teeth and said, "I know what to do."

"I will see how you post this announcement. Be honest and pay attention to your words. I don't want you to repost the tweet."

This meant a warning to Abby.

"Okay." Abby drew her lips together.

Dylan did not look at her again and started the car.

"Dylan!" Abby cried as she ran alongside for a few paces to catch up with the car, "I know I was wrong, and I will clarify the thing online as you told. Can you forgive me?"

Dylan slowed down and stared into the rearview mirror.

Abby's face lit up, and she thought the whole thing was not final, but then she heard his cold voice come.

"You should be glad you're the daughter of the White family. Otherwise, you will bear more than that. Even if you have a good family, I will never like a scheming woman like you."

With that, he stepped on the gas. The car shot forward, raising a cloud of dust.

Abby stood for a moment and then fell full length to the floor, her face as pale as death.

***

The next morning, Savannah got a text from Olivia as soon as she got up.

"Savannah, open your Twitter!"

Another trouble? Savannah picked up her phone and logged in her Twitter nervously.

Abby's latest tweet hit the headline.

"Because of a small conflict with Miss Schultz, I bore a grudge and made false remarks on Twitter to take revenge on her. However, Miss Schultz never defended herself and suffered my insolence in silence. After the event, I calmed down, knowing that I had already violated the law and harmed the reputation of Miss Schultz. I did not want to make things worse. Hereby, I solemnly apologize to Miss Schultz, hoping that she could forgive my past misdeed."
