MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

"We can't figure it out. But I guess he didn't expect it to get a lot of exposure in the media. He was scared. After all, he might be put in jail if we found him and charged him with larceny. So he turned himself in for leniency," Stephens said what he thought.

Savannah nodded. If so, she was in luck!

If this worker did not confess his crime to the police himself, it would be very difficult for her to find him, more impossible to find the culprit, Katrina.

The lawyer finished Raymond's assignment and left.

Before nightfall, online posts about Katrina incited a worker to steal K&G's design were pouring in.

K&G had finally cleared its name. Savannah sighed with relief.

It was the first crisis she met after taking over K&G. Luckily, she got through the trouble almost without danger.

Just then, her phone rang.

"Savannah, I just come back from a business trip with Dan today. I heard that K&G has trouble. Need my help?" Kevin's anxiety oozed through the phone. It sounded like he had just stepped off the plane.

"Don't worry, Kevin. It's been settled," Savannah replied, with a feeling of warmth in her heart.

"Really?"

"Well. My grandfather's lawyer came to help me out." She had mentioned Raymond to Kevin when they chatted online.

"That's good. Let me know if you have any trouble again," Kevin said with relief.

"I know you're also very busy lately. Don't worry about me. Go home and rest," Savannah urged.

"Are you still in the office?"

"Yeah."

"Give me a moment, I'll be right there." Then he hung up before Savannah could answer him.

Less than half an hour later, Kevin called again.

"I'm downstairs at your office. Come downstairs."

Savannah went downstairs and walked out of the office building. Kevin was standing not far away with a bag in his hand. His face was worn out from the journey, but his eyes lightened when he saw her, and the tiredness on his face had quite gone.

"Your favorite egg tarts and seafood spaghetti." He handed the bag to her.

His thoughtful concern so touched her that her nose twitched. After being constantly anxious all day, she did not even bother to eat.

Kevin always cared about her the most.

Egg tarts and seafood spaghetti were what she liked since childhood.

When they lived in the orphanage, the food was not so good. Kevin always bought those she liked with the money he earned from paintings.

After all these years, when she had difficulties, it was still Kevin who cared for her most. He sent food to her as soon as he got off the plane from a business trip for fear that she would starve herself.

But where was Dylan, the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with?

Did he know that she and K&G had been falsely accused of plagiarism this morning? Did he ever think of helping her?

Her sight dimmed slightly.

What was she still thinking about?

He had called off their wedding, and they had no relationship. They had not seen each other for a long time. He even never came to see Kaiden, as if he was avoiding her.

Kevin noticed the mixed emotions in her eyes. He led her to sit down on the edge of a long flower-bed.

"Miss Schultz, the legal representative and chief designer of K&G do you mind if we sit on the curb like this?" said Kevin half-playfully.

"Why should I mind if you, the founder of JK, don't mind?" Savannah braced herself and smiled.

"If you don't mind, just eat here. They don't taste good when they're cold." Kevin took out the food box for her.

Savannah's stomach pitched as she sniffed a pleasant smell. She gorged herself on the seafood spaghetti and egg tart and finished all of them quickly.

After eating to the full, she rose and stretched herself.

"You look just like when you were in Italy," Kevin said and smiled with relief.

"Well, I still occasionally think of my life in a small town. I felt like it's a haven of peace, not as crowded as LA, but clean and simple, uncomplicated and free," Savannah said softly.

"Would you like to go back to the Italian town with me?" Kevin's voice came quietly to her like a feather.

Savannah paused, looking into Kevin's deep, clear eyes.

He was still the boy who had always protected her in the orphanage. He had been waiting for her all these years.

She knew how difficult it was for Kevin to ask her that question after all she'd been through.

But because of Kevin's unchanging love for her, she couldn't just say yes.

She didn't want to break his heart again.

"Could you let me think about it for a few days?" Savannah whispered.

Kevin nodded.

After so many years of waiting for her, what was the hurry now?

The dinner party held by Raymond would take place in the five-star hotel tonight.

In the evening, Savannah spruced up and went downstairs.

Kaiden had heard that his great-grandfather had come to LA.

After having a mommy and a grandmother, now he had a great-grandfather. He felt amazing.

Today, he was going to visit his great-grandfather with his mommy. Dressed up by Garcia, Kaiden took Savannah by the hand and got in the car excitedly.

Joanne and the housekeeper who came with Raymond to LA were already waiting at the door when Savannah and Kaiden arrived.

Raymond was resting in the hotel lounge before the party began. He was delighted to see Savannah again and overjoyed to see the cute little boy next to her.

Joanne was his only daughter. He never thought that he would have not only a granddaughter but also a great-grandson at his age. His lonely life became suddenly lively.

Kaiden stared at this old man curiously. He looked older than his grandpa, and his hair was silvery white. According to his grandmother and Aunt Garcia, it was said that his great-grandfather had done something wrong before, which made his mommy unhappy. But when this old man smiled amiably at him, he looked like a simple kind old man.
