Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

"But he doesn\'t have to choose me to replace Sandy! I\'ve never been in a play before. He gave me too much credit!" She smiled wryly

"I know, Chris. He must have chosen you because you are right for the role, otherwise, he wouldn\'t have said that. Don\'t worry, acting is very interesting, you can have a try. Anyway, it\'s only a supporting role without too many scenes. Take it easy. No one will scold you even if you screw it up." Olivia tried to talk Savannah over.

Savannah had just suffered a miscarriage, and Dylan was going to get engaged to Charlotte. She had had too much recently. Maybe changing a job and making more friends could make her feel better and get over the bad days as soon as possible.

Savannah sighed and nodded.

A private hospital, Chicago.

An old man with a white beard sat in the ward, his eyes wrapped in white bandages.

Two nurses stood nearby, carefully unwrapping the bandages.

Dylan, Cooper, and Kaiden held their breath, waiting for the results of Curtis\' surgery.

Curtis had an ophthalmic surgery four days ago.

They would soon know whether the operation was successful or not.

When the last layer of the bandages was removed, Curtis opened his eyes little by little at the doctor\'s instructions. An incredible glow gradually appeared on his face.

"I could see..." He murmured.

"Really?" Cooper asked in pleasant surprise.

"You\'re still hale and hearty, Cooper. You don\'t look old at all." Curtis smiled. Then he slowly turned to Dylan, his voice shaking, "You are Dylan? You\'ve grown up..."

Although his vision had not fully recovered, and things looked a little vague, it was a great surprise that he was able to see.

Dylan looked at Curtis and held his hand.

Curtis then looked at the cute boy next to Dylan, smiling kindly. "You are a young master, Kaiden, aren\'t you?"

Three years ago, Cooper told him that Dylan had a son. It was the first time Dylan brought Kaiden to Chicago.

Kaiden nodded at once.

Before he came here with his father, he was told that Grandpa Curtis was an old servant who kept his grandmother\'s old house in Chicago and had taken care of his father long ago.

Curtis stroked Kaiden\'s head fondly.

He didn\'t expect to be able to see the boy. It was really a gift from god.

Dylan and Cooper were relaxed to learn the operation was a success.

Cooper called old Sterling and told him the good news. He had to go back to look after old Sterling, so he didn\'t stay long and returned to LA by plane on the same day.

Dylan should have taken his son back to LA together with Cooper, but Kaiden didn\'t have enough fun in Chicago. Curtis also didn\'t want Kaiden to leave so soon, so Dylan decided to stay a few days more.

The father and the son visited Curtis in the hospital every day.

This afternoon, they came to the hospital to see Curtis as usual.

Seized by restlessness, Kaiden went outside to play on the lawn alone.

Curtis looked at the little boy\'s back and sighed. "I heard that Kaiden\'s mother is the girl you brought here on a business trip three years ago, Miss Schultz, right?" Cooper had mentioned this to him before.

Dylan nodded silently.

"I had met her once. I was not able to see her at that time, but I could feel that you were very nice to her... I also guessed that your relationship was not normal. But how did you separate?" There was pity in Curtis\' tone.

"It\'s a long story," Dylan replied simply and didn\'t say more.

Just then, Kaiden ran in and said it was a nice day out and wanted to take GrandpaCurtis to the garden to enjoy the sun.

"Okay, take care of Grandpa Curtis," Dylan didn\'t stop him. The doctor also suggested Curtis go out for a walk. He asked a nursing assistant to take them out, and then he sat on the sofa in the ward, handling the business of the company with his laptop.

On the lawn, Curtis sat in his wheelchair basking in the sun while Kaiden was playing around.

After a while, Kaiden got tired and ran back to Curtis.

Curtis wiped the sweat off the boy and asked the nursing assistant to give him a bottle of water.

"Have a rest, young master," he said. "It\'s too hot now."

Kaiden nodded and sat down on the lawn beside his wheelchair. He took out his small mobile phone and played with it to kill time.

Curtis, like a loving grandfather, watched Kaiden play. Suddenly, something on the screen of the phone caught his eyes.

"Young master, who is the woman in the picture?" Curtis took a close look at his phone and asked.

"She\'s my mommy," Kaiden said, looking at the picture on his phone screen. "She\'s beautiful, isn\'t she?"He had set Savannah\'s photo as his mobile phone wallpaper, so he could see his mommy all the time.

Kaiden\'s mother? Miss Schultz?

"Can I take a closer look?" Curtis\'s voice was suddenly excited.

Kaiden handed the phone to Curtis.

Curtis studied the young woman on the screen, his hands trembling with disbelief and surprise.

He seemed to be in some memories.

After a few minutes, he sighed, "young master, can you ask your father to come out?"

Kaiden didn\'t know what happened, but he immediately nodded and ran in, leading Dylan out.

"What\'s up?" Dylan raised his brows at Curtis, who looked a little excited.

Curtis asked the nursing assistant to take Kaiden away. Then he looked at Dylan, his voice trembling slightly.

"Mr. Sterling, you\'ve been looking for the girl who saved you on the night of the fire, right?"
