MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Chapter 624 - 624: Just Wait And See



Ten minutes later, Savannah stood by the French window, watching Dylan familiarize himself with the old days in the courtyard with old Sterling and Kaiden.

"The side effect of the new drug appeared at the end of the first month of the treatment, with only occasional forgetfulness. I hoped against hope that he would recover after the treatment. He didn't want to worry you, so he didn't mention it to you." Jacob, standing behind Savannah, said quietly.

Taking a deep breath, he continued.

"However, as the treatment progressed, the severity of the side effect increased dramatically. One morning last month, he woke up and suddenly didn't know Garwood and forgot who he is. But he could still remember you at that time. Before he came back to LA, I had done tests on him. At present, his amnesia isn't too serious, and he retained some memory of some people. We observed that he forgot the people who are closest to him, which means that the closer you have been, the more likely he would forget you. Instead, he could remember someone he doesn't know well. That's quite common in amnesiacs."

Savannah turned pale and smiled wryly.

"Fortunately, he has no problem with his past work and knowledge. Don't worry, Savannah. I'm sure he'll be all right." Jacob patted her gently on the shoulder.

The rims of Savannah's eyes turned red, and she covered her mouth.

No wonder he hadn't contacted her since last month. So since then...

Turning around, she asked, "what about his illness?"

Jacob's tense face eased a little.

"Rest assured, the treatment outcome is very good. According to the observation of the past two months, the original symptoms of his illness gradually disappeared, and it didn't attack again. Based on past cases, the state of his illness has been perfectly under control," Jacob concluded.

Her black mood eased a little, and she let out a slight sigh.

She could see that.

He was radiant and fresh, as cool, clear, and determined as he had been.

He would never again suffer from this terrible disease. It was too great that he could have a healthy and normal life again.

But the price of recovery was… forgetting her.

Her face faded at the thought.

Even so, she didn't regret having allowed him to try the new drug.

It seemed worth it as long as he could recover.

After Savannah talked with Jacob for a while, Kaiden and old Sterling came back with Dylan.

Seeing that it was getting late, Jacob took his leave.

Old Sterling wanted to inquire about Dylan's condition, so he went out with Cooper to see him off. Before leaving, he asked the nurse to take Kaiden upstairs to bed.

Dylan and Savannah were left in the living room. They could almost hear each other's breathing.

Savannah looked at him, quite upset when she noticed the strangeness in his eyes.

She'd been looking forward to his return for months, but the man who came back just took her as a stranger.

"Kaiden will be here with you today. I have to go." She broke the embarrassment, clenching her hand tightly.

She was afraid that the tears would flow out of her eyes after another moment with him.

God knew how she wanted to hug him and kiss him to relieve the pain of missing, but he was not even familiar with her now.

As she passed, her wrist was caught. Her heart stopped beating.

"It's too late. Stay here. Lest the boy should cry when he wakes up and can't find you," he said, and his tone was cool, emotionless, and he called Kaiden "the boy".

Savannah knew that he let her stay, not from the heart of care, but out of a sense of responsibility.

But wouldn't it bother him to put a strange woman up for the night?

"If it makes you feel awkward and uncomfortable, I don't mind if we part for a while..." She struggled to breathe.

"You're my woman, and you should live with me. You don't mind? I do." He said as he took her hand and led her upstairs. Although he forgot many people and things, he never changed his bossy.

His memory of her was only a blur, and he couldn't remember how he and the little woman knew each other and fell in love, but since she was his woman, and she had given birth to a son for him, he was responsible for keeping her around.

Savannah was dragged by him to a bedroom on the second floor next to Kaiden's room.

"You can sleep here." He pushed the door open with one hand, pulling her in, and turned to leave.

"Dylan..." She blurted out.

He stopped and turned, his eyes looking into hers, waiting for her words.

"Is it true that you don't remember me?" Even now, she still couldn't accept the fact.

There was a long silence before he said, "sorry."

Unable to control her tears, she rushed to hug him from behind, trying to melt his involuntary indifference with her warmth and passion.

Dylan, however, moved slightly, as if he was not used to the intimacy.

"It's late, have an early rest." He caught her by the wrist and tried to push her away.

Savannah gritted her teeth and clung to him.

Dylan could feel the little woman rubbing against him with her soft body. He didn't know whether it was by accident or an attempt to refresh his memory.

The desire inside him was suddenly ignited!

His handsome face slightly went red, and he pushed her away gently.

"Enough."

Then he walked quickly away as if in panic.

Savannah, staring at his back, wiped her tears and bit her lip.

Dylan, I don't believe you can really forget me! Just wait and see!

***

The next morning, when Savannah got up and went downstairs, Kaiden had been sent to the kindergarten by the driver.

Old Sterling went to the garden to feed the newly airlifted parrot.

Dylan sat alone at the table, reviewing the business of the group at his laptop, his breakfast untouched and cold.

Old Sterling suggested him to rest for a while before going to work.

However, he knew that he was the head of the huge group, and he had an accumulation of work waiting to be done after three months. He insisted that he was fine now and decided to go back to work today.
