MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Chapter 327 - 327: Dylan’s Memory Of That Girl



He had already decided to marry her?

Savannah startled, a warm and sweet feeling coming into her heart. Gazing at his handsome face, she finally found her voice, "are you really willing to marry me?"

He knew there was something else bothering her.

"Do you want to hear about that girl?" he asked, his voice soft.

Savannah's heart slammed against her chest. She wanted to know what's in his mind, of course, but she dared not.

She was afraid to know his beautiful memories with another girl.

She always thought that he was too domineering, and he would even be angry when she got a little closer to other men. But now she felt that she was the really sensitive one. She got jealous when he as much as talked about that girl.

When did she become so deep in the entanglement?

Finally, she gathered up her courage and nodded.

"I was in the pavilion alone when the house got a fire that night," Dylan said phlegmatically, "that was the time when I was most depressed, and I refused any communication with the outside world. Like the walking dead, I was sitting in the pavilion and didn't know to avoid the danger. Maybe I didn't want to go on living at that time... Later, I fainted from the smoke. When I opened my eyes, I saw a small figure trying to drag me out of the pavilion. I couldn't see her appearance, and I only knew that she was a little girl younger than I was, not a maid or anyone in the house. Maybe she was just a passerby, I don't know. I struggled and asked her to let go of me, but she didn't. She glared at me, and her eyes seemed to scold me, questioning why I wanted to give up my life. Then she dragged me out from the smoke and fire with all her strength, placing me in a safe place and left."

After a pause, he continued, "Later, my condition gradually improved. I knew it was mostly because of her. We didn't know each other, but she risked her life to save me, and she warned me not to give up my life. Since a stranger cared about my life so much, how can I take myself as trash?"

Dylan's lips twitched up in half a smile at the memory.

Savannah clenched her jaw. She finally understood why Dylan was so concerned about his savior.

The girl not only saved him out from the fire but also from his depression...

Savannah realized she was biting her lip.

No wonder the girl meant so much to him, and he had to find her. The girl was an indelible mark on his mind.

How could she be compared to that girl?

Savannah was disconsolate.

Dylan noticed her emotion and held her closer, as if comforting her, "I did ask my subordinate to look for her in Chicago these years. I think that girl who could come to my place should be a local. At least, she doesn't live too far away. But maybe I'd misjudged. I searched the city but still couldn't find her after all these years. It may be fate. Forget it, I won't look for her again."

Perhaps he should just let the girl who saved him become a shadow in his dream.

"I admit that when I first saw you, I really thought of you like her, and I kept you beside me because your eyes looked like that girl. But I know very well that you are not her." His tone was stern.

Savannah glanced at him. She wanted to ask him, does he want to marry her because he can't find that girl, so he chooses her?

Will he regret the proposal if one day that girl appears?

But she dared not ask...

She should be content when he could be so honest and told her everything.

Though she couldn't be the most important one in his life, it might be as well nice to be with him all the time...

She shouldn't dwell on it. She should pretend not to know even if he really loved that girl and couldn't put her behind him.

Savannah held him the best she could. She didn't want to hear anything about another girl anymore, and what she wanted was only him.

"I'm cold," she murmured.

As long as he wanted her, and she could stay with him, she didn't care about anything else.

He noticed that her clothing had gotten wet by his wet arms. Afraid that she might catch a cold, he quickly lifted her up, walking to the villa, and said, "take a shower and change your clothes."

Without a word, Savannah threw her arms around his neck, pressing her head against his chest, enjoying his indulgence.

***

Not far away, behind a tree, Charlotte watched as Dylan carried Savannah into the villa. Her sharp nails sank into the rough trunk.

Dylan was waiting for Schultz here.

She saw Dylan proposing to Schultz and watched him jump into the lake regardless of his life in order to ask Schultz to marry him.

She also knew that Dylan chose Schultz because she looked like his savior.

Charlotte stared at Savannah's back with envy.

She had never envied anyone since she was born.

For the first time in her life, she was so envious of a girl who was far inferior to her.

Schultz could get Dylan's love because she looked like the girl in his heart, and now he even offered marriage to her.

No matter why this happened, Charlotte knew she'd lost the chance.

However, she was not willing to give up. She hadn't opened her heart to Dylan yet!

Schultz could win her just because of her good luck.

Charlotte was lost, sad even. She wished that she was the one who looked like Dylan's savior, and then she would be the one who was in Dylan's arms.

After a long time, she bit her lip and went back to Rowe's car.
