Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 607 - 607: Kaiden Was Worried

Savannah was even more surprised. She knew Mr. Smith was always ready to help Kevin. He even provided a house for them and called Kevin now and then to show his concern when they lived in Italy.

But she didn't expect Mr. Smith would have used such illegal means to punish Andrey for Kevin. As the governor, he should act cautiously in case his political opponent had something on him.

She wondered what their relationship was. Why did Mr. Smith do so much for Kevin? Why did he help them before?

Was it really because they had cooperated once and became good partners?

Before she could ask more, Kevin said softly, "Now that it's over, don't think about it anymore. It's our wedding tomorrow. Keep a good mood, okay? I don't want to see worried about things that are not important,"

Savannah said no more and nodded. Just as she hung up, the phone rang again.

It was Kaiden.

"Mommy! Are you really going to marry uncle Rival?" Kaiden asked in an injured tone. He was so affected upon hearing the news that her Mom would marry someone tomorrow.

A few days ago, he learned that Savannah and Kevin were going to get married.

The boy broke down and made a great to-do for a few days and finally stopped when he knew he couldn't change Savannah's mind.

He had been very depressed in Sterling's house these days, and even his favorite toys failed to make him laugh.

Savannah's eyes shadowed. She felt guilty about Kaiden.

In her relationship with Dylan, Kaiden was the most innocent.

Although he was born in a rich family and had been spoiled by everyone since childhood, he didn't have a complete family.

After a pause, she finally said, "yes."

"Why can't you marry daddy?" Kaiden choked up.

Savannah held back the sadness in her heart, and with a helpless smile on her lips, she said sorrowfully, "I'm awfully sorry, Kaiden..."

"You don't have to say sorry. It's daddy who should say sorry!" Kaiden's voice suddenly became angry.

"Your father has a reason… Don't be angry at him, he's a good father to you, and took care of you, when Mommy's not with you before." Savannah quickly said. Though she hated Dylan, she didn't want Kaiden to hold a grudge against his father, like Dylan and old Sterling.

"I called him yesterday, but he didn't even answer my phone!" Kaiden became angrier as he complained, his puppy-fat face turning red.

"He didn't answer your phone?"

"Well, bad daddy didn't answer my phone, not even grandpa's!" Old Sterling and Kaiden called Dylan several times. They wanted Dylan to get Savannah back, but Dylan never answered the phone.

"Not even grandpa's phone? He may be too busy..."

"No! Even if he's busy, there's time to answer the phone, right? But we couldn't find him since the day before yesterday. Even uncle Garwood didn't tell us where dad is. Grandpa sent someone to the company to look for him. The secretary said he hadn't been to the company for several days!" Kaiden gave a kind of sob as he said the words.

Savannah held the phone tightly with a wry smile.

He knew that old Sterling and Kaiden would be looking for him, so he avoided them deliberately. Or maybe he thought who she was going to marry was none of his business,

Her heart sank within her.

Up to now, she still had illusions about him, hoping he would come to her on the eve of the wedding and told her he had his difficulty. She still couldn't believe he gave her up because of his family's reputation or something like that.

But he never tried to come back to her.

He even disappeared before her wedding without a word.

It was just as well.

At least she wouldn't have any more illusions.

On the morning of the wedding, Savannah arrived at the hotel early, accompanied by Joanne and Olivia.

Joanne stayed with her daughter for a while in the dressing room before heading out to receive guests.

Savannah sat in front of the dresser, being prepared by a make-up artist.

Olivia stood behind her, looking at Savannah in the mirror.

Savannah had changed into a white wedding dress and veil, and her make-up was clean and beautiful, perfect as a princess in a fairy tale. She smiled as she talked to the make-up artist, but she didn't look happy at all.

Olivia was shocked when she was told that Savannah was going to marry Kevin.

As long as Savannah was happy.

It was better to marry a man who loved her than stuck in a relationship with Dylan.

There came a knock on the door, and Kevin came in.

Olivia and the make-up artist exchanged a glance and went out.

Kevin wore a trim white tailored suit, looking perfect and smart.

"Kevin..." Savannah got up.

Kevin looked at his bride. She looked beautiful in her wedding gown. Though she was smiling, there was no fervent emotion in her eyes, as if it was not a special day for her.

"You are beautiful today." He touched her hair softly.

Savannah flushed under his hot eyes, twisting the hem of her dress around her fingers.

"Nervous? It's okay. You can share some of your nervousness with me." Kevin took her hand and squeezed it softly.

Savannah took a deep breath and nodded.

Kevin was always so considerate.

Just then, a knock came at the door, and Dan's head protruded in. His eyes fell on their folded hands and teased.

"There's no rush. Wait until the night…"

"What's up?" Kevin loosened his hand on Savannah's and went to the door with a frown.

"Miss Smith's outside the hotel. She wants to see you." Dan lowered his voice.

Savannah heard clearly. Miss Smith? Robert's daughter?

"Let Miss Smith in, Kevin," she said quickly.

"No," Kevin averted Savannah's eyes and said dryly, "I'll go out alone and let her go."

Savannah was puzzled by his attitude. The daughter of the governor came to congratulate them in person. He did not invite her in, but sent her away?

Before she could say more, Kevin had already left the dressing room with Dan.
