MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Chapter 570 - 570: Daddy, Your Bride Is Back



Kevin knew she was Robert's only daughter and his half-sister.

While Robert went aside to answer the phone, Cecelia ventured out of the car and walked up to him like a small deer.

"You're my brother, aren't you? Hello, brother, my name is Cecelia." She introduced herself with a big smile, her eyes flashing.

He had expected the sister to hate him because no one would like her own father had another illegitimate child.

But this little girl was different.

The sincerity in her eyes told him she did not look down upon him. She was really as sympathetic and concerned as Robert about him and thought he had suffered a lot out of the family.

However, he turned his head to one side and ignored her.

It was not because he disliked this younger sister, but subconsciously, he felt there was an immeasurably vast difference between them.

He refused to admit he grudged her for living a happier life than him.

Undaunted, Cecelia took out a piece of half-eaten chocolate from her school bag and handed it to him.

"This is my favorite chocolate, brother…"

He knew she meant well, but he couldn't control his temper and knocked the chocolate bar to the ground.

"You want me to eat what you left? I am not a garbage collector!" He muttered fiercely.

Other little girls should have cried with vexation or turned away. Cecelia, however, said nothing but picked up the chocolate.

"I'll buy you a new one next time," she said.

She didn't change after all these years.

She was still so persistent, trying her best to please her poor, rootless brother. It seemed that she just wanted to let him feel more warmth from the family and help her father to pay more debts.

Kevin turned his mind back. Finally, his voice relaxed.

"All right. I'll meet him sometimes."

He would not go to dinner with the Smith family.

But Robert had at least helped him a lot in recent years, including sending Savannah and him abroad three years ago. So he should at least meet Robert and thank him.

Although his attitude was still cold and the date was not determined, Cecelia knew that it was good enough for him to say so and that he would certainly do if he agreed.

"Then, dad and I will wait for your call. Tell us when you're free." She smiled.

Kevin sighed and raised his hand to wipe the rain away from her hair.

"Take the umbrella and hurry home. Don't worry about your parents." He handed the umbrella to her and said.

He was used to living alone. But Cecelia was different. She had a family, and they cared for her.

Cecelia froze for a moment, feeling the temperature of his fingertips pass through her hair into her skin. Suddenly, her heart beat fast. Then she calmed down, took his black umbrella, and turned around.

But she stopped after a few steps and looked back.

"What's the matter?" Kevin frowned.

"I want to ask you a question..." Cecelia hesitated.

"What?"

Cecelia pursed her lips and asked, "do you really like that woman so much?"

In fact, three years ago, she had heard from her father that her elder brother, with the help of the Smith family's power, took that woman to Balfour Sanatorium to shelter from Dylan Sterling's search. And later, her father helped them to Italy.

She never thought her brother would ask dad for help for a woman who didn't like him. He even gave up his career and accompanied the woman abroad for three years.

That woman must have a very high position in his heart.

Later she learned that the woman was Savannah Schultz, her brother's childhood sweetheart whom he knew in his orphanage.

Cecelia felt envious and disturbed when she saw what her brother had done for Schultz. She didn't know why.

Now Schultz was going to get married, but the groom was not Kevin.

However, Kevin still hurried back to attend her wedding and wanted to bless her personally.

She couldn't get across to herself why he loved that woman so much.

The rain relented, and her question was clear in Kevin's ears.

He didn't expect her to ask this question. After a long pause, he finally nodded.

"But the man she loves is not you. After you paid so much for her, she still chose another man. Why are you still so willing to attend her wedding?" Cecelia couldn't figure it out.

"You are too young to know about feelings. There are no reasons. You'll see when you grow up." Kevin said helplessly.

"I'm not a little girl. I'm a grown-up!" Cecelia curled her lips as though she disliked being treated like a child.

He stared at the girl in front of him. Her long dark chocolate hair was falling around her shoulder, damp with the rain, and her wet clothes molded round her body, accentuating her graceful figure.

Kevin immediately withdrew his gaze.

Indeed, she was no longer a little girl.

She had grown up to a beautiful woman. But in his eyes, she was still that girl who shared her chocolate with him that year.

"Hmm. You are a big girl now, not a little girl."His lips rose slightly into a half-smile.

Cecelia knew from his tone that he still took her as a little girl. She pursed up her mouth, turned, and walked away.

***

When Savannah returned to Green Bay with a heavy heart, she saw Dylan and Kaiden sitting on the sofa in the living room, watching TV.

"Daddy, your bride is back!" Kaiden elbowed his father as Savannah walked in.

After he knew his daddy and mommy was getting married, he learned two new words, bride and groom.

Savannah walked over to Kaiden and picked him up, lightened up by a big kiss from the boy.

Sweet and lovable kids were great stress relievers.

Dylan's face was getting a little ugly by the intimate manners of the mother and the son.

"Kaiden, keep away from my bride."

"Unless you give me a bride!" Kaiden pressed himself to Savannah's bosom and made a face at Dylan.

"I'm afraid no girl wants to be your bride," Dylan laughed.

Kaiden's round face turned red with anger, and he waved his small fist.
