Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

When Savannah saw clearly the coming one, her nose twitched, and tears came down. She purred and whined but could not utter a word.

There were so many boxes, desks and chairs that divided them from each other.

"Don't be afraid," Dylan shouted, and then walked around those obstacles, rushing towards her. But when he was several footsteps from her, a burnt-out fluorescent light on the top beam cracked and fell on him!

Savannah looked at him in horror. She wanted to cry out, but her voice wouldn't work. Luckily, Dylan reacted swiftly. He sprang away and escaped the falling tube and continue his way to Savannah.

Savannah came to herself and began to shake her head violently.

Don't come! You will be burned!

But Dylan did not stop. He put his arm over his head and darted to her. He pulled the cloth out of her mouth and untied her hands and feet quickly.

At the moment the cloth was pulled from her mouth Savannah choked and sobbed, "Dylan..."

"Don't cry." Dylan took off his coat and wrapped her up.

"But you..." Savannah sounded shaky. Without the only coat, he would be injured. In fact, his hand was already covered with severe burns.

Dylan didn't say anything but picked her up, pressed her face into his arms to secure her, and strode toward the door.

Being clasped to his bosom, Savannah was still frightened but felt secure. When they almost reached the door, a horizontal beam above the door frame was burning with a crackling sound, and it became too thin to hold itself.

Savannah gazed at the beam and suddenly screamed when it fell to them crazily. Before she knew, Dylan pressed her to his bosom tightly, and with a thunderous sound, the beam seemed to fall on the back of his head!

"Dylan! How're you?" she raised herself anxiously, only to see him catch his breath and pick her up again. "Nothing."

Savannah thought he dodged the beam and breathed in relief.

At this time, the bodyguards came in with two soaked blankets and helped them out.

Out of the lumber-room, Dylan put down Savannah unsteadily. He looked at her and was about to say something when suddenly he blacked out.

"Mr. Sterling!" The bodyguard cried and flung his arm to stop him from falling.

A medical staff next to them shouted, "blood! He's bleeding..."

Savannah's heart came to her mouth again. She looked up and saw the blood running down Dylan's forehead like a stream.

That beam did hit him!

***

Savannah, Garwood, and Judy were waiting outside the operating room along with several bodyguards.

"Mr. Sterling I'll be fine." Judy held Savannah's arm tightly and felt her shaking.

An hour ago, Dylan was sent to the emergency room in the hospital. Two doctors checked Savannah over. Fortunately, she was rescued in time and didn't breathe in too much smoke and dust. The baby was fine too.

Judy asked the bodyguard to send Savannah back first, but Savannah insisted on staying until Dylan woke up.

Savannah stood, immobile, and her hands clenched. She stared at the light of the operating room, her heart thumping nervously. The unborn baby seemed to feel her panic and moved uneasily in her belly.

Finally, the door of the operating room opened, and two nurses pushed out a gurney on which Dylan was lying silently with his head wrapped by white gauze. Savannah hurried forward but dared not ask the doctor after Dylan's situation.

Judy turned to the doctor behind the nurses, "Doctor, how's Mr. Sterling?"

"We've sewed up the wound on his head, and his life is not in danger now." The doctor said.

Judy and the bodyguards were relieved, but Savannah was still in a trance, "why hasn't he woken up?"

The doctor hesitated for a moment, and then his expression became a little serious, "he should wake up three or four hours later from anesthesia."

"What if he can't wake up at that time?" Savannah had a bad foreboding.

"If that's the case, I'm afraid it's a nerve injury. Anyway, we'll see." The doctor replied, and left.

Savannah took a deep breath. Dylan had consciousness before he was sent to the operating room, how did his situation suddenly become so serious?

What did the doctor mean by saying nerve injury? Was Dylan likely to remain unconscious? Even… the same as Olivia?

After the nurse pushed Dylan into the ward, Savannah controlled her emotions and said to Judy, "Judy, I'll wait here tonight until he wakes up."

"Savannah? No, you're still pregnant! How can you overwork yourself? You may rest assured that I will keep some servants here with Mr. Sterling." Judy advised.

Savannah bit her lip, "it's okay with me. There are sofas and beds in the ward, and I won't be tired."

"I'll leave with you." Judy had to agree when she insisted.

Savannah nodded and entered the ward first.

Dylan was lying on the white bed quietly. However, his head was bandaged with while cloth, he was still the most handsome man on the planet.

Savannah closed the door and slowly walked to the bed, and sat on a chair next to him. Her poor head was full of the picture about fire and his anxious eyes. She felt like she had just watched a thrilling action movie.

He was really desperate to save her.

For the first time in her life, a man was willing to risk his life for her...

She was really moved, her heart warm with a vague feeling.

Savannah spent her night on the sofa opposite the bed.

When she opened her eyes, it was dawn.

Savannah woke up and immediately looked at the bed where Dylan was still lying.

The doctor said Dylan would wake up in three or four hours at most. That was to say, he should have come back to life in the middle of the night. Now it was more than eight o 'clock in the morning. Why hadn't he come yet?

He didn't really hurt his nerve as the doctor said, did he?

No!

Savannah hurried to the bed and whispered, "Dylan?"

The man didn't open his eyes.

"Dylan? Can you hear me? Wake up!" Savannah bit her lip and slapped him gently on the cheek.

Dylan was still lying silently in the bed, just like he was last night.

Tears rose in Savannah's throat and burned their way to her lids. She stretched out her hand to press the bed bell furiously with red-rimmed eyes.

After a while, the doctor came in with a nurse.

"Doctor, he's not yet conscious! What's wrong with him?" Savannah choked back her tears and fear.
