MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Chapter 212 - 212: He’s Coming



The search, though long continued, proved unsuccessful. There was no trace of Savannah or Donna.

Dylan stood on the shore with his hands behind his back; his face became gloomy, and his lips compressed in front of the fruitless search.

The police chief went to him discreetly and said, hesitatingly, "Mr. Sterling, we've searched all the cargo ships returned, but nobody has been found... "

"Has any freighter hasn't sailed back yet? Keep sending signals to those freighters that haven't returned! If you can't contact some of them, drive yachts to call them back!" He shouted in a voice husky with emotion, and his bloodshot eyes showed his need for sleep.

It was normal that communication signals at sea could not be picked up by all cargo ships, so there must be some cargo ships that had not sailed back...

The police chief almost cried out. There were too many ships and freighters in and out every day. How could they chase after them? It was like fishing for a needle in the ocean! But he dared not refuse him.

Dylan stared at the distant boundary between the sea and the sky. His dark, bloodshot eyes twinkled like the stars in the sky.

Savannah, you always want to leave me, don't you? Now you finally get what you want, will you be happy?

But you can't escape without my permission!

I will turn the world upside down to find you!

Just then, the phone in the pocket of his pants started ringing.

He took it out and slightly frowned. It was a strange number from outside LA.

How could a stranger call his personal number?

He composed himself and answered it.

"Hello?"

In the morning.

Savannah was woken up by the middle-aged woman who came in with breakfast.

"Eat quickly! Why do you become so thin and bony after only two days? How can you make money for me like this! Listen, we'll arrive at our destination tonight. Don't try to run away, and be good!" said the middle-aged woman violently before she left.

Sure enough, the day was the last day. Savannah felt a tug in her chest. When this day was past, and they were brought to the red-light district, they would die.

Donna started crying again. "Savannah... No one can save us... It's too late... They'll sell us as soon as they get on shore tonight..."

"We still have one day." Savannah's heart pumped hard too, but she still tried to be calm.

Donna knew Savannah was just saying that to make her feel better, and her tears streamed from her eyes.

Savannah looked at Donna, trying to ignore the lump in her throat.

Even if the nurse in the clinic called Dylan and told him, the freighter had left their country long ago, and there was only one day left. How could she expect Dylan to arrive on time?

Now, they could only pray for a miracle to come.

But how could a miracle happen to an ordinary girl like her?

They couldn't eat even a mite of food. Sitting on the cold floor, Savannah clasped her knees with two hands and leaned against a container, staring blankly at the black window.

Time went by so painfully but quickly. When the door was pulled open again, it was already evening!

The radiance of the sunset died away outside the cabin. The middle-aged woman led two hatchet men in.

It's all over. Savannah had a bad feeling.

It was so. The middle-aged woman hugged her arms. "Here we are. Let's get out!" With that, she motioned to the two men. Then they went up to Savannah and Donna with ropes and began to tie them up.

This was their last chance to fight back. Savannah and Donna glanced at each other and fought tooth and nail to get away. "Let us go! Help!"

Donna bit one man's arm hard, which made the man scream in pain and take two steps back.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman slapped Donna in the face angrily, throwing her to the ground!

"Donna!" Savannah used all her strength to bump against another man and came hurriedly to Donna.

The middle-aged woman picked Savannah up. "You want to make a noise in my place? I've got a lot of ways to deal with women like you who don't obey! Would you like to try them one by one?"

Looking at Donna, who was lying on the ground half-consciously, Savannah was deeply troubled by the fierce glare on the middle-aged woman's face, and fear took hold of her.

She knew that their resistance would only make their fate worse!

The middle-aged woman let her go when she saw her silence.

Savannah fell on the floor heavily, and for a moment, she was stunned. Tears sprang to her eyes.

"Tie them up!" The middle-aged women ordered!

The two hatchet men tied Savannah and Donna up again, gagged them with cloth, and carried them out of the cabin.

Savannah refused to accept, gritted her teeth, and was almost pushed forward by the man.

From time to time, in front of them came the middle-aged woman's threatening voice, "I'll kick your ass if you're not obedient!"

She and Donna would be finished as soon as they got off the ship!

Was her life over?

She was overwhelmed with grief, sorrow, despair…

Just then, they heard noises of footsteps and voices outside the cabin.

Many of the crew who had already disembarked seemed to be driven back again.

The middle-aged woman frowned. While the two men kept a close eye at Savannah and Donna, the woman went out to gather information.

When she came back, she looked a bit pale.

"What's the matter? What happened?" The two men asked.

"Dame! A lot of policemen came. They've blocked the ship and seem to search for somebody." The woman said as she asked them to go back to the cabin. Then she threw a glance at Savannah.

Savannah opened her eyes wide, hope arising from despair.

Search for someone?

Is Dylan coming?

She had prayed for miracles all day, and she didn't expect a miracle to happen.

The miracle was him!

"What? They can't be looking for these two women!" The two men startled!

"Anyway, they don't allow people or cargo off the ship. Now you lock them in two secret containers! Wait till they finish searching and go away!"

The two men immediately carried Savannah and Donna into two separate containers in a corner and locked them.

After a dull slam, blackness rushed into Savannah's eyes!

At the same time, she found it difficult to breathe! Oxygen was slowly decreasing!

After a while, she heard that the cabin door was kicked open, and then the middle-aged woman screamed in alarm. "Who are you?"

"Mr. Sterling. Do you want to search here?" It's Garwood's voice.

"Sure." A very familiar, cold, and husky voice said.

Savannah's heart jumped at this single word!

Dylan! It was him!

He's coming! He's really coming!
