Midnight Bride The CEO’s Temptation

Chapter 263 - 263: What A Suspicious Man

"I'll call Kevin and see if that's true. After all, someone has lied to me several times." Dylan leered at her with a mocking smile.

Savannah forced herself to remain calm, squeezing her hands in the dark. What a suspicious man!

Bad. What if Kevin says he didn't call her or that she had no work at all?

While she was holding her breath, the call got through.

In the quiet living room, Kevin's calm voice was heard over the phone, "Mr. Sterling? What's up?"

"I heard that Savannah was asked to JK for pickup photography?" Dylan came straight to the question.

Savannah held her breath, clenching her fist. Kevin's answer would decide her fate!

If Kevin denies it, she must be dead!

There was a long silence before Kevin finally answered, "Hmm. Yes."

Savannah breathed a sigh of relief! She and Kevin's brother could always think the same thought!

Dylan hung up, his face darkening.

"Well? I didn't kid you. It's a really urgent business. Why don't you let me go tomorrow? I'll be back as soon as I finish my work. Okay?" Savannah gave his sleeve a gentle tug.

"Go back early," Dylan said dryly.

***

The next morning, Savannah, accompanied by Judy and two bodyguards, went to JK.

In the office, she sat face to face with Kevin.

She was wearing a loose blouse, a cotton coat, and wide blue jeans today. She still looked small, and no one could see she had been pregnant for more than three months.

She really didn't want Kevin to know about her pregnancy unless it couldn't be hidden anymore.

Kevin looked at her, puzzled, "Savannah, what's going on?"

He was surprised when Dylan suddenly called him yesterday.

But then he realized Savannah must have said it on purpose.

Savannah came to the point directly, "Kevin, brother, I need your help."

"What's it?" Kevin asked.

Savannah told everything about Olivia to him, including the new clues she found in the mental hospital yesterday.

After listening, Kevin thought for a while before he finally opened his mouth. "You mean, Devin has already lost fertility, and your cousin is pregnant with someone else's child. She wants to return to the Sterling family, so she told a lie. It was discovered by Olivia, and in order to silence her, Valerie pushed her down the stairs at the bar?"

"Yes." Last night, Savannah thought the whole thing again and was almost sure.

Kevin was silent for a moment. He knew Savannah's cousin was not a good woman but did not expect her to be so ruthless.

Was the glamorous life of the rich really so appealing? In order to live such a life, she could do such a wrong!

Kevin suddenly remembered that the Smith family kept asking him back, but he refused. Was he an outlier?

It was a rich and powerful family, but it only made him feel disgusting.

Kevin roused himself and sat up straight. "What do you want me to do for you?" he asked quietly.

"Kevin, brother, can you help me check if my cousin had any special behaviors before she got pregnant, like where she went?" Savannah expressed her ideas.

"You want to find out who the man is?"

"Yes. As long as I have solid evidence to prove that Valerie's baby is not Devin's, I will have Valerie's motive to kill Olivia, and maybe I can testify against her." Savannah said bitterly.

Kevin took a deep look at Savannah and nodded. He hesitated before he finally asked, "Savannah, why don't you just go to Dylan?"

Dylan was now the closest man in her life and had the power to investigate the case for her.

Savannah forced a smile, "he doesn't allow me to care about Olivia's case."

"Why?" Kevin frowned.

Savannah couldn't tell Kevin it was because of her pregnancy. "He's completely unreasonable!" She complained, "I'm not allowed to ask about Olivia's case, what's more, I'm also limited to visiting Olivia."

Kevin looked at Savannah, who pursed up her lips and frowned, and he remembered how he humored her when she was unhappy in the orphanage, "Savannah, Dylan..."

"Kevin, brother, I told him that I come to JK today to retake some shots. Can you help me make an arrangement so that I can report to him?" Savannah interrupted Kevin.

She knew what he wanted to say. He would ask if she was unhappy with Dylan, and if she kept complaining, he would take her away.

However, now she could not afford the care and love from Kevin.

Because...

Savannah put her hand down on her belly imperceptibly.

She didn't deserve it.

Maybe since she got together with Dylan, she had been stripped of all possibilities with Kevin.

And now that she had a little baby in her, it was even more impossible...

She could feel Kevin's eyes hiding a flame that went beyond the brother-sister feeling. However, she could only fail him in this way.

Thinking of here, she felt a little shameful. Obviously, she could only abuse Kevin's kindness, but she still turned to him for help when she was in trouble. She really couldn't find another person in the world who would help her unconditionally.

Kevin noticed her evasiveness, and his eyes became dim. "Okay. I'll ask Dan to arrange it."

Savannah was relieved. Dan led her to the studio, and a photographer followed them in.

Twenty minutes later, Savannah finished and walked out.

Maybe she was not in her normal energy, and she felt a little tired. As she stepped out of the studio, a sense of dizziness came to her; she suddenly lost her balance and nearly fell. Luckily, Kevin flung his arm out just in time to stop her from falling.

"What's wrong with you?" Kevin asked anxiously. Savannah composed herself and saw Kevin looking at her with a worried look on his face.

"Nothing, Kevin. I didn't eat breakfast this morning. Hypoglycemia, I guess. Well, I have to leave now." Savannah said calmly.

Kevin looked at her. He knew it was not as simple as that, and she must have something to withhold from him.
