Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

A bitter laugh escaped Dan. He now knew why Kevin escaped in a hurry. What an impossible girl! She looked more like a hooligan instead of a delicate lady from the governor\'s family.

"Oh, well. Kevin\'s my boss anyway, you know, he doesn\'t have to tell me where he has gone. I suggest you go out and hang around a bit more. Anyway, you can find him sooner or later..." Dan said in an ingratiatingly joking voice.

"He didn\'t come back to JK?" Cecelia stared at Dan suspiciously, as if wondering if he was telling the truth.

"No, absolutely not. I\'m looking for him too. That guy\'s so irresponsible that he left all business to me. I\'m done up with work!" Dan heaved a deep sigh.

Cecelia released her grip reluctantly but still looking around.

Dan took a few steps back in relief. Just then, his secretary came over and said, "Sir, the ticket for Mr. Wills has been booked. The plane will leave at 10:30, and I\'ve just sent the flight information to him."

Oh no! Dan put his hand to his forehead in a cold sweat, taking a stealthy glance at Cecelia. Apparently, she heard the secretary too. With staring eyes, she ran to Dan and again seized his collar in a huff.

"How dare you lie to me!"

But now, it was not time to question Dan. She pushed him away and rushed out of the office with the guard in a hurry!

At the airport, Cecelia desperately looked for Kevin in the crowd, but he was nowhere to see.

It was getting near check-in time. She went directly at the gate of the international European line, but there was still no familiar figure among the passengers.

Was he already in? No, the secretary said he had a 10:30 flight.

She was so worried that she walked out of the way and tried to enter the gate, but was stopped by the security officials.

"Miss, please show your boarding check."

The guard quickly pulled her back and dissuaded her in a whisper, "Miss, please don\'t make a mess. This is a public place. We can\'t explain to Mr. and Mrs. Smith if you\'re recognized…"

Cecelia restrained herself and stepped aside. She pulled back her eyes and dialed Kevin.

She had made countless phone calls to him when she kept looking for him these days, but he never answered. So she didn\'t expect he would answer it this time.

"Hello?"

"Kevin! Are you still at the airport? Where are you? Here I am. Will you come out and see me?" Cecelia was overjoyed when the familiar man\'s voice came over the phone.

"Cecelia, do you realize how annoying you are? I\'ve never seen any girl who is so annoying and unreasonable like you." The man\'s voice was cool and stony, piercing Cecelia\'s chest unmercifully, leaving her stunned.

Although he was impatient to her occasionally, he had never said such heavy words.

"I... Did I really bother you?" Cecelia held her breath.

"Why else did I run away again and again? I just want a place to be alone, but I still can\'t get any peace. What do you want to do with me? To comfort me or to walk me out of love injury? Do you think you are the virgin Mary, able to save the world? You are the same foolish as your parents. Don\'t you know how stupid you really are? It\'s disgusting. To tell you the truth, every time I see you and your smug parents, I feel sick!" Every word was harsh and cold.

"Enough!" Cecelia couldn\'t resist. "Don\'t insult my parents! Don\'t forget, my father is your father too!"

"That\'s right. Your father is my biological father, and if you know that, why not stop pestering me? Isn\'t it shameless for the sister to be so obsessed with her brother? Oh, I forgot, you\'re the daughter of your insolent mother, who is cheeky enough to still keep smiling in front of everyone even if she\'s not liked by her husband, and even if he had an affair with another woman..."

"Shut up!" Cecelia interrupted him fiercely with red eyes, "I repeat, you can call me or laugh at me, whatever, but never insult my mom! What did my mom do wrong? Did she have a choice? No woman would like to marry a man she doesn\'t love! But it\'s a political marriage, and she had no choice! Was she willing to be betrayed by her husband and watch him bear children with other women? For the sake of two families, she didn\'t divorce, but she had to swallow all sadness herself! I never blame your mother for anything, why are you accusing my mom? You\'re not qualified!"

Kevin sensed the girl\'s anger through the phone.

Good. In such a case, she would not come to him again.

"I just spoke the truth. In my heart, all of you are righteous hypocrites. Your father forced my mother because of his own bad marriage. What a fucking governor! And your mother, who failed to manage her husband, vent all her anger to my mother and finally caused her death, and showed no remorse! It\'s unbelievable that she was a cultured lady from a big family. And now her daughter kept on at her brother… Shame on you!"

"Enough, Kevin! Shut up! I hate you. I hate you! I never want to see you again!" Cecelia threw her phone to the ground and ran away!

Startled, the guard picked up Cecelia\'s cell phone and followed her in a hurry.

At the same time, a figure slowly came out from behind the wall and looked at the gate of the airport.

Never want to see him again? All right.

It was good for her and good for him.
