Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

"My beautiful bride, you look good in anything!" Olivia laughed as she came in with Kaiden.

Kaiden, carrying a satin box in his arms, nodded as he repeated, "Yes, my beautiful mummy looks good in anything!"

"That's honey-sweet of you two," Savannah laughed. "Where have you been? Ah, Kaiden, what are you holding in your arms?"

Olivia's smiled wavered. She motioned Kaiden to hand her the satin box and said doubtfully, "Just now, I took Kaiden to the bathroom. When we walked out the door, a pretty boy gave Kaiden a wedding present and asked him to give it to you and Mr. Sterling."

A pretty boy?

Kaiden nodded and added sweetly, "yes, a pretty brother, maybe 14 or 15 years old? He's nice, and he has beautiful eyes."

"Where's the pretty brother? Didn't you invite him in?" Savannah thought she knew who the boy was.

"I asked who he was and why he didn't come in. He just handed the box to me and ran away without answering my question. But he was so tender and gentle when he talked to me. He asked me what my name is and touched my head. Oh, he also asked me to say sorry to dad for him. Does he know dad?" muttered Kaiden, retrospectively, looking very fond of the pretty brother he met for the first time.

Say sorry to Dylan?

Savannah caught her breath.

The pretty boy in Kaiden's words was, very likely, a pretty girl.

"Is there anything wrong with the present? Shall I call security to check it out first?" Olivia got a little nervous when the look on Savannah's face turned stern.

"No." Savannah let out a deep breath.

She thought she knew the mysterious kid who gave her a wedding gift.

It was Greta.

Overcome with emotion, Savannah looked at Kaiden again.

Kaiden, do you know why the pretty brother was tender to you?

Because she's your cousin.

You should be sister and brother.

"Mommy, do you know that pretty brother? Who is he?" Kaiden looked thoughtful and wondered.

Savannah stooped down and stroked Kaiden's head.

"She's your cousin, someone close to your dad and you. She's your family."

"Cousin? Then why didn't she come to your wedding?" Kaiden was still wondering.

"She may be engaged now and not be free to come. But don't worry, you will know each other one day," Savannah said softly.

"Really?" Kaiden's eyes popped in pleasant.

It seemed that the little guy liked Greta, maybe this was the strength of blood.

Savannah nodded. "She'll be back for sure."

Just then, the door was knocked.

There in the doorway stood a tall, thin man in a well-pressed suit. On this special day, he had this great charisma so that no one could resist his overbearing charm.

Dylan came to urge Savannah out, but the moment he saw her, his deep eyes became full of tenderness and, ignoring Olivia and his son, he leaned over and gave her a wet kiss.

"Hey, hey! I'm still here! Don't be so lovey-dovey in public, okay? Fine, fine, Kaiden, go out with auntie, your daddy needs private time." Olivia took Kaiden's hand and laughed her way out.

As soon as the door closed, Dylan doubled locked it before he threw his long arms around the little woman and kissed her even more fervently.

They had been busy preparing the wedding reception and had spent too little time with each other these days.

Finally, he managed to catch her alone today. How could he keep himself from approaching her?

As his kisses continued, Savannah's exposed white neck was covered with shallow love bites.

Her skin was so fine and thin that it was easy to get marks.

"All right, the guests will laugh at me if they noticed that." She avoided his lips helplessly, trying to get out of his arms.

"Who dares laugh at Mrs. Sterling?" He didn't let her go but held her close, breathing against her ear.

It was not easy for Savannah to push the impatient man aside. She straightened her dress and sat properly, looking pointedly at the satin box on the dresser.

"Greta came and left a gift, and with that, she left."

Dylan restrained his desire and calmed down. With a thoughtful look, he picked up the satin box and opened it. Inside was a necklace. The pendant was a small sapphire.

The beautiful shimmer of the jewel enlightened their eyes.

Dylan had seen a lot of precious jewelry. Savannah also had a course about jewels when she studied design in Italy.

They all recognized the sapphire necklace.

This was the famous "Star of the Heaven" from the time of King Vittorio Emanuele III of Italy.

The sapphire necklace was handmade by craftsmen in the court, and the pendant was made of a priceless sapphire.

After the First World War, "Star of the Heaven" disappeared and was never heard of again.

Undoubtedly this one was genuine.

They didn't expect it was owned by Greta, and she gave it to Savannah as a wedding gift.

In the satin box, Savannah noticed a small card which said:

Sorry. I wish you happiness.

This sorry was, of course, to both of them.

It seemed that Greta had found out that her father's death had nothing to do with Dylan.

"Since she knows it's a misunderstanding, and she came to LA personally to give us the wedding gift, why not she come to see us?" Savannah showed a frown.

Was she too shy?

Or she still felt guilty after nearly killing her uncle?

Dylan took Savannah's hand gently, looking deep out the window.

"It's okay," he said. "As long as she knows that there's a home waiting for her in LA."

Savannah breathed a sigh. She believed that the obstinate girl would return one day.

"Do you know what this 'Star of the Heaven' means?" Dylan interrupted her thoughts.

"Huh?" Savannah looked at him unblinkingly.

"It's said that those who have 'Star of the Heaven' can live a happy life and spend the whole life with the one you love the most, and never to be separated." He looked down at her with tenderness, as if he were gazing at the most precious jewel in the world.

Spend a lifetime with the one you love most and never to be separated...

That was probably why Greta gave her this expensive gift.

She wished her uncle and aunt to spend a happy life together to take over where her parents left off.

Suddenly, Savannah's eyes moistened with tears.

Dylan stooped down and kissed away the tears.

His bride raised her head to meet his kiss. Her happiness overflowed.
