When Dylan's familiar, charming voice ca into her ear, Savannah jumped again, her heart thudding and bumping.
He's back!
And he caught her.
"You... Why are you back so early?"
"How else could I know that you sneaked out of the room?" quipped Dylan, "I heard that you asked the nurse to buy you an ice cream? Oh, you have a good appetite."
He ca back as soon as he sent the consul away. How long did she expect him to stay out?
"I'm really concerned about Donna," Savannah explained, "I just had a look at her."
"She's in better health than you. The doctor said she didn't need to be hospitalized. I've already arranged a flight for her. Tomorrow she'll be sent back to LA first." He did not want the little woman's ti to be engaged by other things.
"Donna will return ho first? What about ?" Savannah wondered, "Won't we co back with her?"
"The doctor said you're not suitable for flying now, and you need more rest. There's no hurry. We'll go back in a few days." Dylan said simply.
"xico's only a few hours away from LA. It's not a long journey." Savannah looked at him with her head on one side.
"What's the hurry?" he frowned slightly, "you hardly ever go abroad. Why not take it as a trip?"
After returning ho, a war with Susan was inevitable.
His bottom line had been completely overturned by Susan. This ti, he would not let it go again.
Before that, he wanted to spend a few more quiet and undisturbed days with her in xico.
Savannah took a deep breath, knowing what he had in mind. After being saved out from the human trafficker, she needed so relaxation, and he wanted to spend more ti alone with her abroad.
She never thought their first trip abroad was actually in this way – playing at the place where she was almost sold.
Finally, she nodded. "Okay."
To be honest, she hadn't been abroad yet. She heard that xico was really fun and the food here was very delicious. It would be nice to stay here for a few days.
Dylan saw her eyes sparkling brilliantly, knowing she was also very happy to stay here. His breathing grew sowhat rapid. Resisting his deep desire, he picked her up and went to bed, laying her down. Then he lied down too, reaching out to enfold her in his arms. "It's getting late. Ti to go to sleep."
"Dylan..." Savannah struggled slightly.
How could she really sleep in this position? What if he wanted her at midnight...?
Dylan seed to have guessed her worry, and a faint grin bent the corners of his thin lips. "Don't worry. I won't take you until you're well again."
If he hurt her, he himself would suffer in the end. So even if he wanted her, he had to restrain his impulse.
Savannah's face burned, and she was also relieved. She closed her eyes and fell asleep in his arms.
***
Savannah slept her first peaceful sleep after being kidnapped.
When she woke up, it was broad daylight.
The doctor examined her and found nothing wrong. Then she changed clothes and went out with Dylan.
Outside the hospital, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, with several subordinates after him, was waiting at the door. Not far away, there was a car that seed to co from the consulate.
This middle-aged man was the U. S consul serving in xico.
The consul led his subordinates to et Dylan when he saw him co out with a young lady.
"Mr. Sterling, are you going out?" His eyes couldn't help falling on the twenty-year-old girl beside Dylan.
Mr. Sterling ca to xico with all the police and bodyguards out for this cute girl.
The consul ca to the hospital last night. He invited Mr. Sterling to dinner and asked him to stay in the senior presidential suite of the consulate.
But Mr. Sterling refused. He said he would stay at the hospital and then went back without any supper.
So, he left to accompany this girl?
For this girl, Mr. Sterling not only ca all the way to xico to search the port but also preferred to stay in the hospital than a luxury suite!
Unexpectedly, Mr. Sterling, who had always kept himself aloof from won, now pampered a girl to such an amazing extent.
Now they were abroad, and Savannah was not afraid of her relationship with Dylan being exposed. So even if the consul looked her squarely in the eye, she was still calm. She quietly walked down the stairs, hand in hand with Dylan.
"Hmm." Dylan winced slightly when he saw the consul co again.
"Where are you going, Mr. Sterling?" The consul smiled politely.
"Out for a walk," Dylan said simply.
"Oh, why not let show you around? I can give you so information about places to visit in the area!" The consul said fervently.
"No." Dylan was obviously not interested in his suggestion.
"Sir, I can also provide a guide who knows this city well for you and this beautiful lady..." How could Mr. Sterling play in this city alone? They needed the best service and company!
"You're noisy. Don't you have anything else to do?" There was a definite chill in Dylan's tone.
Co on, Dylan frowned, he doesn't want this man to play gooseberry, okay?
Doesn't he know he's unwanted?
Savannah almost laughed out when she saw Dylan refuse the console without hesitation. But it was actually a very awkward mont, and the consul stood there embarrassed.
Anyway, he was a distinguished U. S. diplomatic official who ca to beco the local guide on his own initiative. It's not polite for Dylan to refuse him in such a cold way.
She had never seen a governnt official before. Maybe a consul was nothing to Dylan, and he didn't think it's necessary to save his face.
"Thank you, sir, for your kindness." Savannah smile at the consul to break the ice, "we're going to enjoy ourselves alone today, and we don't want to bother you."
"Oh, then I won't interfere with you. I wish you a happy day!" The consul smiled gratefully at Savannah, and then he hurriedly left.
Dylan wrinkled his handso brows. The consul agreed as soon as the little woman opened her mouth? Then he glanced at Savannah. She smiled so brightly to another man in his presence!
Unpleased, he gave her hand a hard squeeze, taking her straight to the car prepared by Garwood.
He snapped the door shut, and the outside world was shut out. It seed that he got angry without reason.
Savannah felt sothing strange in the atmosphere.
"What's up?" she asked when she saw him sitting there pouting.
Dylan turned half around to lift her chin, leaning down to her. "Why flirt with another man in my face?"
