MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

"Savannah, I heard you submitted resignation to Jenkins?" asked Fiona as she walked over.

"You're really a gossip girl," Savannah nodded and laughed.

Fiona took her aside and lowered her voice, "you didn't have a fight with the big boss again, did you?"

Last time it seemed that Savannah resigned after having a quarrel with Mr. Sterling. So Fiona wondered if they had any misunderstandings again this time.

"No. We're fine." Savannah shook her head and beamed with happiness.

"Oh, silly me!" Fiona patted herself on the head. "Savannah, are you going to hold a wedding?"

"Yeah. Well, it's next month," Savannah said with a soft smile.

Fiona was relieved. So, Savannah resigned because she would get married soon.

She had been wondering when Savannah would marry the big boss since she saw how much he doted on her. His fervent and intense gaze indicated how he cared for her.

"Even if you're going to get married, you don't have to quit," said Fiona impulsively as she held Savannah's hand, "you will feel bored as a housewife. Fashion design is your favorite work. It's a pity to give up."

"I know you don't wanna me leave." Savannah chuckled.

"Of course, you are my best friend in the company. I'll have to eat alone after you leave…" Fiona heaved a deep sigh.

"Actually, I don't want to quit. It's good to work here. But..."

"Then, why?"

"He let me run a design company instead and said it suits me better." Savannah smiled shyly.

"You mean… Mr. Sterling bought you a design company? Which company?" Fiona immediately understood.

"K&G."

"Oh my, K&G? That's a very time-honored clothing design company in LA, and they had several well-known brands! Mr. Sterling bought K&G and gave it to you? Oh, my goodness! Savannah, you are the boss of K&G!" Fiona exclaimed in a low voice with envy.

"... Come on, you're making me nervous. I'm still trying to figure out whether I should take it over or not. I'll be laughed out of my wits if I make a mistake." Savannah said helplessly.

Fiona's words gave her much more pressure. She had been nervous about running K&G for fear of being laughed at because she was too young and inexperienced.

"You're the last one to be nervous. You're the boss! Fire those who dare to laugh at you!" Fiona joked.

Savannah shook her head with a soft chuckle. Sometimes Fiona was really simple and naïve.

Fiona continued, "As I know, men, in general, will give their girlfriends or wives diamonds, luxury watches, or cars. But the big boss gave you a company as a toy! Ah, I'm so envious of you having such a rich and handsome man! I guess I have to go to the church on the weekend and ask God to give me a man of the same style!"

"Don't worry, you'll get what you want." Savannah grinned.

They chatted for a while before Fiona went back to her department.

After the proposal that night, the Sterling family began to arrange their wedding.

According to Dylan and Savannah's common wish, the wedding should be held in a relatively low-key way. They didn't want to attract public concern.

As Dylan planned, after the wedding ceremony, he would take Savannah to travel around the world by private plane for half a year.

But old Sterling was not supposed to keep a low profile. Dylan was his only son, the helmsman of the family. His wedding had been messed up three years ago, and this time old Sterling wanted to make up for it. As he said, it must be a grand wedding.

Kaiden, after being motherless for three years, wished the whole world could know his dad and mommy were going to get married.

Savannah didn't want to disappoint old Sterling, so she had to let him plan the nuptials.

It took a lot of work to make the wedding unprecedentedly grand. So, the wedding was scheduled for the middle of next month.

Savannah checked out of Zagreb Film after finishing the rest of her work.

The bride-to-be always had a lot to do before the wedding banquet, but since old Sterling and Dylan had undertaken most of the wedding arrangements, Savannah had more spare time and decided to start her work in K&G earlier.

She was, after all, young and savvy and had some experience in Zagreb Film. She quickly engaged herself in K&G's business and mastered her new job quite well.

K&G had more than 100 employees in LA, but Savannah only had to deal with the senior managers and her personal assistant, Tina, appointed by Dylan.

Tina had rich experience in the fashion design industry. She looked straightforward, energetic, and meticulous, and she helped Savannah a lot.

As Dylan said, K&G's business was mature and stable, and it was easy for her to manage it.

After getting familiar with the operation of the company, Savannah threw herself eagerly into her fashion designs and wanted to create her own brand.

Compared with what she did in Zagreb Film, she preferred her present work. She could involve herself completely and deeply in fashion design now, and her job allowed her to release her full interests and natural gifts.

This morning, Dylan took Savannah and Kaiden to the cemetery to fulfill his promise.

A few days ago, he spent a lot of money to clean and repair the tombstone for his father-in-law, whom he had never met.

The letters on her father's gravestone had been worn away when Savannah came last time. But this time, she found it was changed to a fine white marble and was planted with plants and flowers on both sides, no longer deserted.

What's more, Dylan adorned the tombstone with "We will cherish you always," and, besides her name, he added his name and Kaiden's name on the tombstone.

From then on, she was no longer alone. Her father left her forever, but she was lucky to have Dylan and Kaiden beside her.

Standing in front of the tombstone, Savannah was unable to speak. Her eyes moistened.
