Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

"Paul Burnett, you\'re going too far. Do you think everyone in the world is as despicable and dirty as you?"

"Is sleeping with me equal to being despicable and dirty? That\'s a part of human nature," Paul stared at Nancy with erotic eyes, "if I\'m not dirty, how could we have Clark?"

His sight was as if a hand stripping Nancy naked and stroking her.

Nancy blushed with shame at once.

"Paul Burnett, you!..."

"Nancy," Marcos said without emotion, "it\'s just a dog barking, just ignore it."

Before they came, Marcos had instructed her that if she quarreled with Paul, she would fall for Paul\'s trap.

He couldn\'t stop Paul from saying anything, but if Paul dared to touch the hair of his woman.

He squinted his eyes. A hint of cruelty flickered over his eyes.

If he took off the gloves, he would not be weaker than Paul.

Nancy shut her mouth and nodded, "I see."

Seeing Nancy be so obedient, Paul was irritated.

The intimate way Marcos called Nancy also made Paul uncomfortable.

"Nancy Carter," Paul continued provoking her. "I\'m inquisitive whether he or I make you happier on the bed."

Nancy didn\'t even take notice of him.

For Paul, no response was the curliest torture. He would instead Nancy scold him, beat him, but could not stand her ignoring and coldness.

His fists hit the table hard, and the impulse to solve problems by force raised again.

"Whoever stirs the fight, get out, please," Eric reminded.

At this time, the servant brought out the jewelry Crystal had bought today upon Crystal\' request.

"Happy Valentine\'s Day! This is for you, just open it," said Crystal.

"Wow! You\'ve prepared presents for me?" Nancy\'s eyes glowed with excitement, but at once, she pouted, "But I forgot to prepare yours..."

"It\'s okay. The jewelry is in pairs. One for you and one for me."

Nancy opened the box and saw the beautiful shiny bracelets, necklaces, and earrings.

She picked up a bracelet, wore it on her slender wrist, and exclaimed, "How gorgeous it is... and it\'s even of the Brilliant brand! It must be costly, right?"

On hearing the brand name, "Brilliant," Eric froze at once.

He stared at Crystal with sharp eyes; great displeasure showed on his face.

Eric seldom touched Crystal\'s personal belongings. After Crystal had brought the jewelry home, he had just swept a glance at the bag, did not even take a closer look.

It wasn\'t until now did he know the jewelry was under Brilliant Group.

Nancy only knew that the "Brilliant" was an international luxury brand but had no idea that it belonged to Nathan.

Crystal had also not been well-considered enough when buying the jewelry. She should have bought in any store except for those under Brilliant Group.

Now she clearly felt the displeasure and fury from Eric\'s face.

"Take it off," Eric ordered coldly.

On finishing speaking, he seized Crystal\'s arms, dragged the bracelet down from her wrist with force, and threw it into the trash can.

"Darling, do you mean to satirize me on such a romantic holiday?" Eric questioned.

"I didn\'t mean that... I didn\'t think that much..." Crystal fiddled her clothes with fingers.

"Don\'t tell me you don\'t know that Nathan Davis owns brilliant."

She could have chosen other brands; why had she decided to buy the brand of Nathan Davis? Plus, it was the first time she had spent his money; it meant a lot to Eric.

Eric should not be blamed for getting angry.

The air in the dining room suddenly became grave.

Marcos couldn\'t help reminding Eric, "Mrs. Bush has just got pregnant, Eric, aren\'t you going to maintain your good-husband image?"

Eric curled his lips and clenched his fists.

"From now on, from clothes, bags, shoes, accessories to the articles of everyday use, you can only use and wear those of the exclusive brand under the Bush. I\'ll customize a brand for you, as for the name, you can discuss it with Nancy."

Crystal looked closer at him.

"You\'re not angry now, are you?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Nancy thawed the atmosphere, "That\'s wonderful! Crystal, you\'ll have your exclusive brand! Great!"

Marcos stared at Nancy, "Do you envy her?"

"Of course!"

Nancy answered without hesitation.

"I can build a brand for you, too."

As soon as Marcos finished talking, he pulled out his chair, stood up, and brought out a box from his pocket.

He turned Nancy\'s chair to face him and was about to kneel on one knee.

But suddenly, Paul kicked hard on Marcos\' knee, forcing him to stand up.

Marcos ignored him, wanted to kneel on the other knee, but Paul kicked over again.

Even a gentleman like Marcos riled.

He caught the opportunity to kick Paul back.

The romantic proposal ceremony was turned into a battlefield.

"Eric, aren\'t you going to stop him?" Marcos couldn\'t help but ask.

No matter what Paul did to him, he tried to avoid but not counterattack since he did not want to ruin the party and his proposal night.

However, Paul didn\'t seem to intend to give up, even using fists and legs to harass him.

Eric frowned.

Because of the unpleasant episode of the bracelet, he was now in a bad mood. What Paul was doing was equal to asking to be a punching bag for Eric.

One to two, Paul was undoubtedly no opponent for them.

Soon, under the attacks of two sides, Paul was overpowered and pressed on the table.

"Paul Burnett, if you ruin the party tonight, I can\'t guarantee you can stay here anymore," Eric warned with serious eyes.

Nancy had her eyes wide open and did not understand why the three men fought without any reason.

All of a sudden, Marcos knelt on one knee, held her hand, and said, "Valentine\'s Day present."

Nancy was dumbfounded again.

Marcos opened the box; it turned out that there were five rings inside.

Nancy had seen four of them last time; the fifth one should have been made later.

"Do you like them?" Asked Marcos.

Nancy sat still and did not know how to react. Seeing the scene, Paul angrily pushed Eric away, who was stopping him, and tried to rush over to stop them.

However, it\'s too late. Marcos held Nancy\'s hand and proposed, "Marry me."

"Nancy Carter, how dare you!"

Paul roared in a loud voice.

As if not seeing him, Nancy\'s eyes kept fixing on Marcos.

It was the first real proposal in her life. The proposal Paul had made was too perfunctory; that time by Noah was fake.

How about this time? Is it true?

Marcos was like a prince who walked out from the fairy tales, no matter his appearance, personality, or figure, all fulfilled her fantasies about the man of her dreams.

She had to admit that she was almost drowning in his tenderness.

However, she was no longer an 18-year old girl.
