Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 265 - 265: There Was No Clue

Melted by her girly appearance, Judy, without hesitation, agreed and asked the bodyguards to wait for them outside.

The bodyguards nodded. They stood in place and watched Judy walking into a café with Miss Schultz.

In the café, Judy ordered a glass of fresh fruit juice suitable for pregnant women. After a few sips, Savannah said that she needed to go to the washroom.

"Let me go with you," said Judy, not willing to leave her alone.

Savannah shook her head, "I will go myself. I'm not that weak. Just wait for me here, okay?"

"But..." Judy was still worried.

Savannah smiled bitterly, "Judy, are you afraid that I will find a way to abort the child? Don't worry, I dare not give Dylan a chance to punish you and Garwood like that again."

Judy knew she had behaved much better these days, so she didn't say anything more.

Savannah left her seat, walking out from the back door of the café. The street was filled with bars, cafés, and restaurants. The bar where Monica worked was very near.

She walked over to the door of the bar and dialed the number Kevin gave her.

A few minutes later, a hot sexy woman with long-wave hair teetered out in high-heeled shoes. She squinted at Savannah, "Who are you? What do you want to see me about?"

"I want to ask you about something. Please tell me all the details." Savannah knew that this woman was Devin's previous lover, Monica, who had quarreled with Valerie before. She would try to get information from her.

"Ooh, it sounds funny. Why should I answer your question?" Monica hissed, but before her voice had died away, her eyes grew wide!

Savannah pulled out several bills, waving them in front of her. "What about it? Are you willing to answer my queries if I'll pay you?"

Monica took the money, stuffed it in her bra, and said, "Okay, go ahead."

"Did Devin's wife come to you a few months ago?"

Monica frowned, and soon remembered, "Ah, yeah, that crazy woman made a scene here a few months ago, crying that I robbed her husband. Ha! Devin doesn't like her at all! She's nothing in his eyes even without me!" said Monica sarcastically.

"And then? What happened after that? Where did she go?" Savannah had a feeling that Valerie had a one-night stand after she left here.

"How do I know where she went? I just gave her a lesson but didn't follow her!" said Monica lazily.

"I advise you to think it over." Savannah looked at Monica.

Monica paused and thought for a while, "I really had no idea where she went. But two hours later, when I sent a guest out of the bar, I saw her coming out from Hot Bird across the street. Her face red and her hair was messy. I guess she got herself drunk in a bad mood."

Hot Bird is on the same street? Hot Bird again!

Savannah was surprised.

Valerie might have an affair with another man in Hot Bird and become pregnant...

Perhaps the man was a staff or a regular caller of Hot Bird!

After talking with Monica, Savannah hurried back to the café.

Judy was about to look for Savannah when she saw her finally come back. She sighed with relief, "Savannah, let's go back to the car."

Savannah turned her head and looked in the direction of Hot Bird. She knew that it was impossible to continue to investigate today, but it was great progress to come to this step. She nodded and left with Judy.

***

Savannah had been thinking about how to go to Hot Bird secretly.

Of course, she couldn't go with Judy following her.

This day, Dylan called and said he had a business dinner with a client from Europe, and he wouldn't come back to Beverly Hills. Savannah knew her chance came.

After dinner, Savannah deliberately said that she was tired and went to bed early. She knew that as soon as she went to sleep, all the servants in the villa would relax and let their guard down.

After a while, when the house became dark and completely quiet, Savannah jumped out of bed, put on comfortable clothes, and tiptoed quietly down the stairs. She slipped out of the postern door of the villa.

Savannah stopped a taxi and headed for Hot Bird.

There was little traffic on the road late at night. The taxi drove very fast and soon stopped at the bar.

The bar was noisy, crowded at this hour, and the music had started, so there was a large crowd on the dance floor.

Savannah made her way to the bar and sat on a high chair, taking a breath at the noise.

There was no clue. Where should she start?

It seemed that she could only try her luck.

Savannah took her cell phone and showed Valerie's picture with the staff and some young men who looked like regular customers. However, they all said that they had never met Valerie. Nothing had been found out, and she almost was entangled by some womanizers who tried to chat up with her.

When Savannah finally gave those men the slip, she hurried on and accidentally bumped into someone.

"Sorry!" Savannah looked up and saw a man looking rascally in front of her.

The man opened his small eyes wide when he saw Savannah clearly. He looked like the hungry hound got wind of the game. "It doesn't matter, sweetie. I was too careless to bump into you. How can I let a beautiful young lady apologize?"

The girl in front of him looked only 20 years old, wearing a camel-colored loose sweater dress. Her skin was white and smooth, and she looked comely and young in the dim light of the night bar. Though she dressed conservatively, the man, who was experienced in picking up women, could say that this girl had wide hips and busts under her loose dress.

Savannah frowned and was about to move past him when he blocked her way with a devil smile.

Dearest Lovies,

Here are the batches of chapters that I have promised to release today once we've reached our goal. A few reminders, read each coming chapter carefully because I will leave some hints of the future twists and slight revelations of the mysteries behind the FL's life. Lastly, please be kind not to bend your anger against me while reading along the way; fasten your seatbelt, kidding! I'm reading your comments if I have spare time checking my account. I am a bit busy, as I handled business matters left by my late husband.?I took over our family business; that's why I might not be able to check my account often. Rest assured, I will give our MC's a happy ending.

Our next mass release will be depending on how many power stones we could gather before Friday morning. Stay safe, everyone!

Love lots,

Anna Shannel Lin
