MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Chapter 484 - 484: Old Mrs. Rowe Offered Help To Dylan



If she couldn't guarantee her own granddaughter's happiness, how could she deserve to be the elder of the Rowe family?

"Charlotte. Don't cry. Grandma is always your patron. I'll help you get Dylan. Even if Savannah had given birth to a child for him, Dylan's legal wife would only be you." Granny Rowe said with great assurance after pondering for a moment.

Charlotte didn't know what her grandma was going to do, but since she promised her, there must be a way. She wiped away her tears, nodded, and said, "Thank you, grandma."

After Charlotte went back to her own room, Granny Rowe closed her eyes and considered for a moment. Finally, she made up her mind and phoned an old trusted subordinate from the Rowe group in Chicago.

Besides official business, this old subordinate often helped to deal with important confidential matters in private.

She discussed the plan with him for a long time over the phone. There was a satisfied smile on her face when she hung up.

The Sterling Group

An atmosphere of tension filled the CEO's office.

The senior manager had just reported his negligence in the overseas business. He bowed his head, waiting for his punishment in front of Dylan's desk, cold sweat gathering on his brow.

As the leading domestic corporation, the Sterling group had also planned for the expansion of the company's foreign activities.

Since last year, Dylan had been invested more manpower and material resources in the overseas business to further squeeze into the Northern European, Australian, and New Zealand markets.

Not long ago, the governments of the three Nordic countries jointly launched a bidding program for the USA, inviting the business leaders to come to their countries for win-win development.

Dylan immediately made a business plan for the project and decided to win the bidding within half a year.

Unexpectedly, one of the most important data for the project was stolen in the final stages of the bidding plan. This data was crucial to the success of the final bid, and there was little chance for them if the data couldn't be found back in time.

The senior manager, who was in charge of the bidding in northern Europe, nearly fainted with fright at that time. He immediately reported the matter to Dylan and flew back to LA.

Garwood was also stunned. He knew how much Dylan valued the project.

If they failed at the final bidding, he wouldn't be surprised if Dylan would fire the manager at once!

The silence lasted for a long time. Dylan leashed his anger and did not say a harsh word. Then he asked the manager to leave.

The senior manager, relieved, nodded, and left the office hurriedly.

"He should be blamed for neglecting his duty," Garwood said, surprised that Dylan didn't lose his temper or even reproach that manager.

"It was not an accident," Dylan smiled an iron smile.

"You mean, there's a theft? Who could it be? We have no strong competitor in northern Europe this time." Garwood shook his head in a dubious way.

"Check it out," Dylan ordered coldly.

"Yes, sir!" Garwood nodded immediately and left the office.

"Mr. Sterling, " the secretary knocked on the door soon after Garwood left, "old Mrs. Rowe is here and wants to see you."

Dylan gave a slight frown. Why did that old lady show up in person?

A few minutes later, Granny Rowe was led into the office by the secretary.

She looked sharp in a black satin dress, with her gray-haired hair pulled up.

"Dylan," she smiled amiably.

"Madam, what can I do for you?"

"Nothing. I just haven't seen you for days. Today I stopped by your company and dropped in on you."

"I've been busy with work," Dylan said drily.

"Oh, really? Are you busy bidding for the Nordic project?" Granny Rowe said carelessly.

"You're well informed, Mrs. Rowe." Dylan raised his eyebrows, looking at the old lady.

Granny Rowe laughed, "I'm not well-informed. However, I did hear that you've been very busy with a Nordic project recently, and you got into trouble."

"What do you want to say?" Dylan knew what happened perfectly well now, but his expression didn't change.

"I know you're in a lot of trouble. Sounds like…some classified documents are missing? Oh, you might lose the bid. Don't you think it a pity to give it up when it is nearly completed? My family has the right connections in northern Europe. Shall I send someone to help you?" Granny Rowe suggested with a confident smile.

"Thank you. Mrs. Rowe, but I don't want to bother the Rowe family." The expression on Dylan's face was even colder.

"No trouble at all. I can help you find an important document. All I need is an engagement between you and Charlotte. What do you think of the deal?" Granny Rowe said gently.

"That's what you want?" Dylan looked gloomy.

"Well, why not think it over before you decide? I have to go first. Proceed with your work." Granny Rowe turned and left. She was confident that Dylan would agree.

She was also from a business family. Her husband, her son, and her grandson were all businessmen. She knew how important such an international project was for a businessman.

After so much investment, Dylan was absolutely not reconciled to the final failure!

He must not refuse her offer.

Dylan's expression became sullener as the door closed.

A moment later, Garwood entered, looking much more serious.

"Sir, we got it. It has just been discovered that a senior worker of the Rowe group was sent to northern Europe a few days ago by Granny Rowe. What exactly had he done is unknown. But what a coincidence! He arrived just a few days before our document was stolen..."

Shadow gathered at Dylan's eyes.

Sure enough, data theft was associated with Granny Rowe.

It seemed that the old lady had planned on threatening him with the project.

Garwood had just heard from the secretary that Granny Rowe had come to see Dylan.

"Granny Rowe did it...? Why?" Garwood guessed something, shocked.

"For her precious granddaughter," Dylan grunted.

Granny Rowe resorted to this means to get Charlotte and Dylan together?

Garwood couldn't believe it, but he had to.

After chatting with Olivia for a while online, Savannah stretched and climbed onto her bed.

Just then, her cell phone rang.

Savannah picked up the phone, glancing at the screen.

It was Kevin.
