Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

"Does your stomach hurt?" He sat next to her, a note of concern in his tone.

"Fine, really..." Savannah shook her head, "I get the same stomach ache every month during my period. Never mind, the pain will pass in a day or two."

The frown on his face was deepening to a scowl.

From the way she looked, he knew she couldn\'t be all right.

She didn\'t feel so bad every month when she was with him three years ago.

Perhaps it was still because of the massive bleeding when she gave birth to Kaiden.

He poured a glass of hot water for her. After she drank it, he held her in his arms and put her on his lap, adjusting her in a comfortable position. Then he put his hands on her stomach, gently massaging her.

"How are you feeling now?" He looked worriedly at her.

Although still in pain, she was comforted by his concern and seemed to be better.

But then she felt a little guilty.

After all, she approached him for a purpose.

But he was unaware of that and was so protective towards her...

Not daring to look him in the eye, she drew herself into his arms, put her arms around his neck, and merely said "er" as a reply.

"I heard Jacob said, there\'s one good way to relieve the symptoms of dysmenorrhea," he whispered, leaning close to her ear.

"What?"

"Have a baby." His voice was low and husky.

"I\'ve already had a baby. It doesn\'t seem to work." Savannah was a little amused.

"Maybe one kid isn\'t enough." He bent his head, running his lip over her tiny earlobes.

She blushed and closed her eyes. This man is really bold. Seriously, she hasn\'t heard such a thing.

Party evening.

When Savannah came back home from the company, Kaiden was already dressed up by Garcia.

Garwood, sent by Dylan to pick her and Kaiden, was already waiting for them in his car at the door.

The party was not held in Royal Villa as Lionel planned but in a five-star hotel.

Joanne had heard that Savannah would come today with her grandson. She was standing at the entrance of the banqueting hall, looking forward to seeing them.

When Savannah came over, Joanne quickly walked forward, her eyes brightened at the sight of the pretty boy next to Savannah. She knew the boy must be her grandson, whom she had never met.

"Kaiden?" Joanne squatted down, taking Kaiden by the hand, and looked at him fondly.

"Kaiden, call grandma." Savannah smiled.

Kaiden looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him, who looked exactly like his mommy.

"Grandma, my name is Kaiden. You\'re so beautiful, not like mommy\'s mommy, but mommy\'s sister," he said sweetly.

Joanne couldn\'t stand the sweet words of the little guy at all. She hugged Kaiden and gave him a big kiss. Kaiden giggled and held out his arms, asking Joanne to lift him up, as if it wasn\'t their first meeting.

"Kaiden, come down, your grandma isn\'t in good health. Don\'t make her tired." Savannah shook her head and laughed helplessly.

"That\'s all right. I\'m fine," Joanne couldn\'t let go of her lovely grandson.

To tell the truth, every time she thought about Savannah giving birth to a child for Dylan without even a wedding ceremony, she felt quite uncomfortable. She even thought that the child was a burden for Savannah, and she somewhat hated the child.

But after she saw the cute boy, she liked him at once!

"Savannah, don\'t forget to bring Kaiden out when we eat together," she said to Savannah with a smile.

Kaiden sighed slightly like a grown man. Well, he had been used to it. Besides grandpa, now he had to keep grandma company too. He was so handsome that he was liked by all who had met him.

Savannah laughed. This little guy was really favored by everyone.

When they went into the banquet hall together, guests looked at them curiously, wondering who was the young lady and the handsome boy in a custom-made tuxedo next to the young mistress of the Rowe family.

Savannah just smiled, saying she was from the Sterling group.

Today\'s dinner party was held to announce the new cooperation of the two groups, and of course, it was normal that the employees from the Sterling group came.

"Why didn\'t mommy say she\'s grandma\'s daughter?" Kaiden asked Joanne curiously.

Savannah also reminded him on the way here just now that he should not call her mommy or Joanne grandma in front of others at the banquet.

Joanne looked at Savannah and sighed.

Although Savannah accepted her as her mother in private, she kept a certain distance from her on public occasions, afraid that people would discover their mother-daughter relationship.

She knew that Savannah didn\'t want to damage her reputation.

Actually, she really didn\'t care.

"Savannah," Joanne was about to say something when some rich ladies she knew well came and greeted her with a smile, "Mrs. Rowe."

Joanne was the hostess of the Rowe family, and Ethan was not here. She had to entertain the guests today, so she put Kaiden down reluctantly, took a sorry look at Savannah before she went to the guests.

It was a business party, but not quite normal, and many guests brought their own children.

Kaiden pulled Savannah\'s sleeve when he saw several children of his age gathered in a corner, playing with toys brought by the waiter.

"Mommy, I want to play with them!"

"Go ahead." Savannah smiled and touched his head.

Kaiden immediately ran towards the children.

Savannah sighed quietly, looking around, but didn\'t see Lionel.

Just then, Garwood saw her and came over.

"Miss Schultz, Mr. Sterling, was consulting the business over there. Shall I tell him that you\'re here and ask him to come?"

"No. Since he\'s busy with business, I won\'t bother him. I\'ll walk around by myself," Savannah smiled and said.

"All right. Mr. Sterling will come to you after business." Garwood nodded.

After Garwood left, she stopped a waiter and asked, "excuse me, where\'s Mr. Rowe, please?"

"The banquet hasn\'t officially started yet. Mr. Rowe should be upstairs in his room."

Savannah took a look upstairs.

According to her plan, she, Dylan, and Lionel, the three of them, had to be on the spot at the same time.
