Brandon didn’t seem to want to tell her anything. He looked torn. But he just walked out without turning
around
Savanna rushed up, grabbed his arm, and shouted, “Answer me.”
Brandon turned around and frowned. “If you love me, you should believe me. It’s a little tricky and I’ll
deal with it. If you go back with me, you will be in danger. I can’t put you in danger.”
Hearing this, Savanna took a step back. She thought it over and asked coldly, “Is it about the Gilbert
family?”
Seeing that Brandon did not answer, she asked anxiously, “It’s your grandmother, right?”
Brandon stiffened and could hardly breathe. His hands which hung by their side clenched into fists.
“Savanna, we’ll be together no matter what. If I have done something unforgivable, you have to know
that I have no other choice.”
He held her face and kissed her on the forehead. “I must do it for our future. I hope you can understand
me. Thank you.”
Brandon pleaded
Making Savanna stay in Seattle was the only way he could think of that could get her out of danger.
Savanna did not move. She lowered her head and looked at her toes. She was in a daze. Seeing that
she was quiet, Brandon heaved a sigh of relief. “Don’t worry. When I have time, I will fly back to see
you.”
Savanna suddenly said, “What am I to you?”
“What?” Brandon was surprised by it.
Savanna smiled, but it was a bitter smile and it broke Brandon’s heart.
Savanna flashed her long eyelashes. She listed her eyes and looked at him. “You put me here and I
have to wait for you to fly and see me. Brandon, what am I to you? Am I just a lover or a mistress?”
Brandon was furious at the words she used, but what she said was the truth.
He suppressed the surging anger and articulated firmly, “Savanna, You are not only my lover. You are
not my mistress. You are my wife that I’ll love for the rest of my life.”
However, Savanna was irritated by what he said.
She slapped him on his face. It was a loud one.
Brandon looked down and saw that Savanna’s hand fell to the side. Her palm was red and it was
shaking so wildly, as if Savanna couldn’t stand steadily.
Brandon went to grab her hand and wanted to check her injury, but Savanna pushed him away and
roared at him.
“Brandon, since you’ve chosen Joanna, why are you keeping me here? Why do you separate me from
Mandel?”
Brandon was not surprised that Savanna already knew it.
Savanna was very smart. She had long realized the reason for his abnormal behavior.
The reason why she blamed him was that she didn’t know the truth. She was just guessing
Only this reason explained why he locked her up in this strange place:
Her words broke Brandon’s heart. His throat was so tight that he could not say a word
Silence followed.
After a long time, he moved his lips and said with a hoarse volce, “I didn’t choose her As I said, this is
only temporary.”
With that, Brandon did not dare to look at Silvanianymort” and just left AS 500 as he left the door
slammed shut from outside.
Savanna looked at the door which was still trembling It broke Savanna’s heart. She couldn’t even stand
steadily because of sadness.
She tried to open the door, but it was locked. She shook it desperately. No one came to help her
She knew that Jim and others were outside, and she became Brandon’s prisoner
He locked her up and she was cut off from the world.
Brandon left.
Jim sent the food into the room. In the evening. Jimentered the room to take out the food. But the food
he sent was untouched. Savanna did not take a bite.
Philadelphia.
Brandon stood by Mandel’s bed. Brandon fed Mandel soup in person Mandel’s rosy face became more
and more round. Mandel had mentioned Savanna more than once, and Brandon prevaricated every
time.
After feeding Mandel, Brandon went to see Rex. Brandon asked about Mandel’s illness and Tracy’s
condition.
Rex said, “Tracy’s condition is getting worse and worse. Her days are numbered. If you agree to give
her a grand wedding, will Savanna forgive you?”
Rex still did not agree with Brandon.
Rex knew Savanna well. Savanna had a strong personality.
“Brandon, it’s not that I’m speaking up for Savanna. I’m more worried about you. You two just got
together. Now that you’re doing this, I’m afraid that … you’ll never get back in the future,” Rex said.
Rex’s words hit Brandon’s sore spot.
Brandon lit the cigarette with his hand. But his hand could not stop shaking. He took a puff of smoke
and it surrounded him. Shrouded in smoke, his face looked handsome but gloomy.
Rex could see that Brandon was not only worried, Brandon was more nervous.
Brandon breathed in the smoke and breathed out. He was choked by the smoke and coughed.
“It’s my grandma. She has something about Savanna in her hands. I can’t allow it to be exposed.
Besides, Tracy won’t live for long. As soon as she dies, I will bring Savanna back.”
Rex took a deep breath and patted Brandon on the shoulder. Rex wondered whether Brandon’s plan
could really work out. “I hope so. Good luck to you.”
When Brandon received Jim’s call, Brandon was driving back to the Young’s house. Brandon frowned
as he heard Jim’s report. His eyes were cold. The knuckles on the steering wheel were pale.
Savanna refused to eat as a way of protesting.
Brandon turned the car around and drove directly to the airport.
He bought a plane ticket. Two hours later, Brandon arrived in Seattle. Jim was so happy to see
Brandon that Jim couldn’t speak clearly. Jim followed Brandon and hurried to the room.
“Mrs. Cassel refused to eat. We used every way we could think of, but she did not eat a single bite.”
Jim was very upset. He was afraid that something would happen to Savanna and that he could not
bear the consequences.
So, he called Brandon.
Brandon pushed open the door and saw Savanna sitting on the windowsill with her back to him. The
window had already been nailed with wood. Savanna could not escape even if she had wings.
The sound of him opening the door was so loud, and their footsteps were also loud, but Savanna still
had her back to him. No matter how loud the sound was, it couldn’t attract her attention.
Brandon waved his hand and Jim left.
The door closed.
Brandon took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and pulled off the tie on his neck. He gently walked
behind Savanna.
Brandon looked in the direction where Savanna was looking. There were magnificent buildings outside
the window. Night fell. The bright neon lights shone on the street and there were mottled shadows. Half
of Savanna’s face was covered in shadow.
Looking at Savanna’s sharp jawline, Brandon was heartbroken.
He bent down, cupped her chin, and turned her face so that they looked each other in the eye.
Seeing that Brandon’s face got closer and closer, Savanna raised her eyes slightly and shot Brandon a
glance.
Savanna realized that it was not a dream and Brandon really came. Savanna’s pale lips curled into a
faint smile. “Why did you come?”
“Why don’t you eat? Don’t you like the food?”
Brandon called Jim in and asked him to cook something again.
Savanna stared at Brandon with an indifferent expression. Her gaze was distant and indifferent. She
said, “I want to return to Philadelphia. I want Mandel. I want to stay with him, please.”
Savanna pleaded.
