Chapter 567 - 567: You Work Too Hard
This was the first time for Dylan and Kaiden to pay their respects to Savannah's father.
Kaiden behaved as good as gold and said a lot to his grandpa. Savannah couldn't help laughing when she heard him whispering, "Are angels in heaven beautiful?" and "I will take care of mom."
Then Dylan took out some food and flowers and put them in front of the tombstone before they left.
***
As the wedding banquet was around the corner, Savannah was busier and busier not because of the wedding, but her work
In the evening, Savannah was still at K&G, working on a design project.
This was the first brand created by herself after she began to manage K&G. She devoted all her energies to the brand these days.
The name of the new brand was—Young.
Its main target market was young female consumers who liked trendy clothing. The brand style was elegant, sweet, and noble, suitable for young women between 18 and 28 years old for formal occasions, such as interviews, daily work, important dates, and all kinds of banquets.
Outside the office, a very dignified and charming man, dressed in a fine gray suit, stepped out of the elevator.
Tina looked up from her PC when she heard the footsteps and hurriedly stood up.
"Mr. Sterling."
Everyone in the company knew that K&G was bought by Mr. Sterling and given to Miss Schultz, its current boss.
It was said that Mr. Sterling and Miss Schultz were getting married soon.
Dylan nodded and glanced at the closed office door.
"Miss Schultz's still at work. Shall I announce your arrival with her?" Tina asked.
"No," Dylan raised his hand to indicate to Tina to continue her job. Then he walked gently toward Savannah's office.
She was so involved in her work that she didn't even know the door opened and someone came in.
She did not look up until she heard the footsteps and muttered,
"Tina, why don't you get off work, I'll go by myself..."
Before she finished, a pair of arms with familiar heat wrapped around her from behind, pulling her into the man's chest!
Her eyes bugged for a moment before she reacted, turned, and threw her arms around his neck.
"Oh, my. I was so frightened. Why don't you call me?"
The warm rays of the evening sun, filtered by the pale blue curtains, slanted into the room as only blurry shadows.
Dylan held her waist in both hands, his eyes drooping slightly as he glanced at the papers strewn across the desk.
"I wouldn't have given you K&G if I'd known it. You work too hard." His voice was gentle yet laden with dissatisfaction.
He never knew that the little woman would have become a desperate able woman.
She was so busy that she couldn't even get home at off-hours.
He called her when he came out of his company, but she didn't answer the phone. Then he called Garcia and knew she hadn't returned yet. So he drove to K&G directly.
"Young is my first original brand, and I want to make it as better as I can," she played the woman and shook his hand in disapproval with chagrin on her face. "You gave me K&G, but I don't want to always rely on you. I don't want to waste your money or make the company suffer loss..."
Looking at her serious expression, Dylan could not help laughing. His heart gave a throb and began to fill with warmth.
Before, he didn't know what he liked about her.
It was not until this moment that he knew it was her steely and unyielding spirit that touched him most.
In the eyes of outsiders, a small still model like he was eye candy only.
But she was not content to be valued just for a beautiful face.
He should have known that she was the same girl who had saved him from the five years before.
She was so persistent, even stubborn in the fire that night.
At that time, she did not know him, and obviously several years younger than him, but she worked with all her might to save him, exhausted herself to drag him out of the fire regardless of the danger.
"Well. It's okay to work hard, but don't forget our thing," said Dylan softly.
Savannah knew he was referring to the wedding.
"I've drawn up my guest list and gave it to Cooper yesterday. In addition to my mother, Olivia, Mat, my colleagues in Zagreb Film, I also invited the director of the orphanage and a few teachers, kids, and..."
Here she stopped abruptly, raised her face, and looked tentatively at him.
Dylan knew what she was thinking.
She wanted to invite Kevin.
Kevin was such an important person in her life. How wouldn't she want to share her greatest happiness with him?
She was just afraid he would be jealous and stop her.
That's right. Even though he knew she was going to marry himself and couldn't possibly have anything more to do with Kevin, he still didn't want her to meet Kevin.
However, as long as she was happy, he would swallow all his unwillingness.
He gave her hair an affectionate stroke and said, "call Kevin and ask him to come back for our wedding."
"Are you sure?" Savannah asked in a happy surprise.
"Am I that mean to you?" Dylan looked a little unhappy.
"Well..." Savannah hesitated and decided to change the subject, "All right, I'm hungry now. Why don't we get something to eat?"
"Sure, my babe," Dylan laughed, took her hand, and walked out of the office.

Though Dylan had agreed to invite Kevin to their wedding banquet, Savannah still didn't know what to say to him.
To avenge her father, she asked Kevin to go back to Italy, and she hadn't made it clear to Kevin yet.
What would Kevin think of her if she told him she was not angry with him at that time but stayed to revenge, and now she had made up with Dylan?
Maybe Kevin was still in Italy waiting for her to change her mind and forgive him…
The more she thought about it, the more she felt guilty.
She agreed to be Kevin's girlfriend because she hadn't got her memory back and wanted to avoid Dylan.
But looking back, she thought she was really too selfish.
