Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 679 - 679: You Still Care About Me, Don’t You?



On the broken ground, makeshift tents set up everywhere around broken buildings for the wounded.

Cecelia, wearing a white nurse\'s dress and a mask, was dressing a child who had just been saved out from a collapsed house.

"Don\'t be afraid. It won\'t hurt." She coaxed the child to stop crying.

After dressing the child, one of the volunteers came over.

"You\'ve got blood on your hand. Go and wash it," she said.

Cecelia glanced at the back of her hand, sighed, and nodded. "All right. Please take care of the kid."

The volunteer looked at Cecelia. The girl came and joined the rescue team three days ago, just after the earthquake. She had some medical rescue knowledge, so she was arranged to help the injured as a nurse.

The rescue team asked her name and where she came from, but she said nothing.

However, everyone could see this girl was not from an ordinary family.

She was like a pampered daughter from a big family.

They all felt confused and couldn\'t figure out why this girl came to such a dangerous place to be a volunteer.

Cecelia wiped her sweat as she watched the child be carried into a tent, and then she made her way to the back pool.

At this moment, a figure not far away attracted all her attention.

A group of volunteers had just rescued some injured from a collapsed building. The figure was a young man carrying an injured old woman on his back.

Her heart was beating fast. She had no time to think about washing her hand but got out of the crowd and followed that figure.

The young man carried the old woman to a tent and put her down carefully. He went to get some water for the old woman, and then he crouched down and gently consoled her. When the injured old woman calmed down, he whispered something to a nurse and turn to leave.

As soon as he turned around, Cecelia saw his delicate side face.

It was really Kevin.

Cecelia, wild with joy, held her breath and followed him quietly.

There were only seven or eight meters between them.

Several times she wanted to call him, but then she got cold feet.

She came to the stricken area for him, but somehow, she was unable to shout out his name. Subconsciously she was afraid he would send her back to LA without listening to her.

When they came to a place where no one was around, he suddenly stopped and said coldly without turning back,

"Cecelia, how long are you going to follow me?"

He had already seen her when she stealthily followed him, and he was shocked and wondered why she was here.

Cecelia\'s heart almost leaped out of her mouth, and, unable to contain her excitement, she ran to him and threw herself around his narrow waist and cried, "Kevin! I finally find you!"

At the airport, she left in a huff after Kevin made a provocative remark on the phone.

But when she calmed down afterward and realized that he did it on purpose to keep her away from him.

After that, she continued to look for him. She went to JK to pester Dan and ask him about his whereabouts every few days, but Dan refused to say anything. Then she sent people to look for him in the town where he had lived in Italy and even searched all over Europe.

Five days ago, an earthquake struck this small town in the southwest.

When she went to JK again that day, she accidentally saw JK package a plane to send donations to the earthquake-stricken area.

Instinct told her that he would be here. After asking for leave in the school and leaving a note for the family, she threw off the guards and secretly flew to the southwest town.

Every day, apart from helping the injured, she wandered around the town, trying to find him.

Three days passed, and he didn\'t appear.

She was ready to give up when she finally saw him today.

Besides providing emergency food and clothes, he came to help the earthquake victims in person.

She held him tight, but he disentangled himself from her arms and pushed her away.

She staggered two steps back.

Kevin stared at her, his deep eyes sunken from several sleepless nights.

"What are you doing here?" He said with undisguised indifference.

Cecelia wiped her eyes. "I\'m here for you!"

"Forgot what you said that day at the airport? You said you never wanted to see me again." The chill in his eyes deepened.

"I know you meant to annoy me that day, didn\'t you? I won\'t be fooled by you again!"

"What do you want now?" Kevin curled up his lips with sarcasm.

"How about we help the injured first, and then go back to LA together?" Cecelia stared at him hopefully.

He looked at the girl in front of him, who was wearing a dirty nurse\'s dress and had lost some weight after only a few days.

"Leave right now, or I\'ll call your parents and have them pick you up," he said coldly.

He was sure Robert and his wife didn\'t know their daughter was here.

The town could suffer aftershocks at any moment.

If Mr. and Mrs. Smith had known about the situation, they would not have let her come here, and they might have even broken her legs and locked her in the house.

"No, Kevin, please don\'t call mom and dad!"

"Then get out of here at once." Kevin remained immovable.

"I don\'t want to leave here. I want...I want to stay with you!" Cecelia bit her lip.

Kevin went straight to a tent to get the phone to inform the Smiths.

"No, Kevin, please..." Cecelia ran to him, grasping his arm.

Kevin shook off her hand roughly. Suddenly, the blood on the back of her hand caught his attention. Vivid anxiety came to his eyes. He paused and grasped her on the wrist, examining her up and down with a frown.

"Don\'t worry, it\'s not my blood, it\'s the blood of the wounded..." She smiled through tears.

He dropped her hand and regained his calm expression.

"You still care about me, don\'t you?" She stared at him.

"That\'s enough, Cecelia. Remember who you are and what your family is. You can\'t do whatever according to your own will. I repeat, go back!" Kevin said it loud and clear.

Cecelia took a deep breath.

"The governor\'s daughter? Can I only be a good girl being protected by my parents? Just because I\'m the governor\'s daughter, I have the responsibility and obligation to come here to help the injured and share the difficulties with the victims! Yes, I came here for you, but you have no right to send me away. I am staying here now, not for you, but helping my people who are suffering from the earthquake, okay?"
