Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 436 - 436: Go Home, Charlotte

Charlotte lived in the house which Lionel had bought in Royal Villa.

"Here we are." Dylan pulled open the passenger door.

Charlotte got off reluctantly. She tried to talk to him on the way, but he seldom answered her. Now she arrived home, and it disappointed her that he was going to leave soon.

"Dylan... Can you go in with me? I... I want to talk to you." She bit her lip and murmured.

She had too much on her mind to tell him after three years.

At last, they were alone. How could she let him go?

"I won't go in." He looked at her and said, "I'll ask my secretary to book your plane ticket later. Go back to Chicago. Your brother must be worried about you."

Charlotte's expression froze, and a wry smile played on her lips.

Ah. It turned out that he sent her home in person, not because he was concerned for her safety, but to drive her away.

Dylan thought that she understood. He was about to turn to leave when she suddenly threw her arms around him from behind.

"Dylan, don't go... Please... Three years... I've been waiting for you for three years... Do you know how I've spent the last three years in Chicago? I missed you every day..." She mumbled sobbing. "Why? Why don't you let me stay with you? Didn't you keep looking for me? Why do you treat me in this way now? I'm sorry, Dylan. I'm not blaming you. I just don't understand... I really don't understand..."

He took her arm and pulled it away gently. Then he looked at Charlotte, who grew excited while speaking.

"I'll ask a maid to come out and take you in." He said drily.

Charlotte, seeing his impassive expression, knew that he didn't want to talk to her and still kept a distance from her.

After three years, Dylan almost forgot Savannah.

If Savannah hadn't reappeared, he would have softened towards her, and at least, he wouldn't ask her to go back to Chicago as soon as they met again.

Savannah, why don't you disappear and never come back again?

Charlotte knew that her stepmother treated her as her own daughter because she predicted her feelings for her daughter on her. Because she really missed her own daughter, Savannah.

Now, Dylan treated her so coldly because of Savannah again.

"Go home, Charlotte. I'll have my secretary bring the ticket to you soon." The man's indifferent voice came again.

"No!" Charlotte put her hand to her face and cried. With that, she turned and rushed into the villa.

Kaiden talked with his grandpa for a while. Then he went to the toy room and sat alone in the toys playing while waiting for his daddy.

Toys today didn't seem so fun. He felt a little fretful after a while.

Finally, he took out the phone and called Savannah.

"Kaiden?" Savannah's soft voice arrived on the phone.

"Mommy, I miss you," Kaiden muttered.

Savannah noticed the grievance and unhappiness in the boy's voice and asked with concern, "what's the matter? What happened? Where are you?"

"I'm at grandpa's house," Kaiden replied in a sullen tone.

"What's not to be happy about? Did grandpa scold you for something?" Savannah was relieved and then asked with a smile.

"No, I'm waiting for daddy to pick me up in the toy room now. Today, a young auntie came to dinner at grandpa's house. Daddy sent her home after dinner and hasn't come back yet." Kaiden pouted.

"Who's that, auntie?" asked Savannah, and she seemed to guess who it was.

"Auntie Rowe."

Charlotte.

Savannah paused and comforted Kaiden, "it's just polite to send the guest home at such a late hour. He'll pick you up later."

"But I don't like that, auntie." Kaiden was sensitive about this. If he was not here today, what would that auntie do to his daddy? Would they be together and abandon him later?

"Mommy, when will you come back?" Kaiden quavered, "no, auntie would bother daddy again if mommy moves back and lives with us."

"Kaiden, didn't I say that? I can't live together with your dad." Savannah said patiently.

"You're just going to let daddy get stuck with those pesky women?" Kaiden was not convinced.

"If your father can find a good auntie, it's good for him and good for you."

"No!" cried Kaiden unhappily, his voice trembling. "No, auntie! No new mommy!"

"Okay, right," Savannah soothed him in a soft voice, "don't worry. Your dad's so picky and tough. It's hard for him to find a good auntie."

Kaiden nodded with tears.

At last, Savannah calmed him down with a children's song. After hanging up, she sat on the sofa and didn't move for a long time.

She would go back to Italy with Kevin after he finished the business in JK.

She didn't think too much about what Dylan did that night. Though he was still her legal husband, they both knew that he couldn't stop her if she insisted on leaving.

But she felt a little upset by Kaiden's call.

After a while, she smiled to herself, a little mockingly.

Even if that man was with Charlotte now... wasn't it a matter of course?

They should have been together three years ago.

But what was she thinking? Why was she distracted by the thought that they were together?

That should be good for her to know that he and Charlotte went well, and she was able to divorce him and return to Italy.

But why? Why did the lonely figure under the streetlamp that night still haunted and lingered in her mind? Why did she remember the hard kiss again?

Shaking her head, she tried to get rid of those strange thoughts.

What she should do now was to finish her work in the company and wait for Kevin to finish his work in JK. After that, they would go to Italy together.

After that, maybe they could be together soon.

She took a deep breath and turned up the volume on the TV, trying to focus on the TV show again.
