The smile on Mia‘s face froze. “Who are you? What right do you have to say that? What proof do you
have?”
Savanna said, “Since I dared to come to you, I naturally have evidence.”
Savanna clicked her phone and played a video. She then held it in front of Mia.
Mia stared at the video. In a dimly lit room, a blurry shadow crept in. The moonlight from the window fell
on her face, lighting it up. She reached for the medicine bottle in the compartment of a desk near the
windowsill, pulled out the bottle cap, and poured out the medicine in the bottle. After that, she took
some pills of about the same size and filled the bottle up.
Looking at the video, Mia narrowed her eyes slightly, a dangerous glint flashing in them. “What do you
want?”
The smile on Savanna‘s face was gentle, but behind this gentleness was viciousness.
She said, “Mia, you destroyed the surveillance camera. I found a skillful hacker to repair this video. If i
hand it over to the police, the police might re–evaluate whether what you just said is true or not.”
Mia bit her lower lip and remained silent.
Seeing that the time was right, Savanna got straight to the point. “Who ordered you to do it?”
Mia bit her lips until they bled. She pressed the tip of her tongue against her cheeks and chuckled. “You
want to sue the person who instigated me?”
“Of course.” Savanna frowned.
Mia said, “Savanna, have you seen the trending topic about stories of the only daughter of the
Thompson family two days ago?”
Savanna furrowed her eyebrows. “You made it?”
Mia chuckled again and admitted it generously. “Yes, it was me.”
Savanna‘s breathing was unstable as she angrily asked, “Why? How did I offend you? Why do you
slander me like this?”
Mia‘s voice was soft like a ghost. “You did not offend me, but in this life, I hate you to death. Why can
you live a carefree life? Why should I bear everything for you?”
Savanna did not want to meet Mia‘s aggressive gaze. She turned her face away. “I don‘t understand
what you are saying.”
Mia said, “It doesn‘t matter if you don‘t understand. Let me tell you something. Every word I said in that
post is true. The only daughter of the Thompson family is you. Your mother is a promiscuous bitch. You
are the same. You are all bitches. You deserve to not get happiness.”
“Bang.” Savanna slapped Mia in the face,
Mia‘s face tilted heavily. The burning pain on her face made her jump off the bed. She reached out to
grab Savanna‘s hair, but Savanna dodged swiftly.
Savanna quickly pressed Mia to the bed and clutched Mia‘s neck. She asked with anger, “How dare
you slander me and my mother? Mia, the Young family can sue you for attempted murder based on
what you did to Lorena. Go find a lawyer and ask how many years you will have to spend in jail?”
Mia suddenly laughed out loud. Because she laughed too hard, her neck and body trembled. In the
end, tears came out, but she still did not stop laughing.
“Savanna, you can let me go to jail. In that case, your biological mother will have no one to support her
anymore. Do you know how much her medical expenses are now?”
Savanna furrowed her eyebrows. “I don‘t understand what you are saying.”
Mia stopped laughing and said seriously, “Do you know why I posted that on the Internet and pulled
some strings to make it a trending topic? Because I also hate you. Lorena is clearly our enemy, but you
still look forward to taking care of her for the rest of her life. His grandson has betrayed you time and
time again, but you wanted to marry him. Savanna, are you that cheap? Are you crazy about men?”
Savanna clenched her fists. “Shut up.”
Mia said, “I believe that you know that you are not the child of Krissa and David. Back then, Krissa and
Frank fell in love. But Jolin also liked Frank, so she trapped Frank into a one–night stand with her.
“Krissa, who was pregnant, ran away from home after she found out that. She met David. In a fit of
anger, she got a marriage certificate with David. When Krissa was almost seven months pregnant,
Frank finally learned that Krissa was pregnant with his child and heard the news that Krissa had
married David. Frank came to see Krissa, but Krissa avoided meeting him. It was that night that Krissa
had a car accident for the first time.
“She only had a minor injury in the car accident, but she had a miscarriage because of the accident.
After that, Krissa was a little mentally ill. In order to deceive Krissa and make her believe that her child
was still there, David went to the next ward to take away a baby girl who had just been born. When the
woman found that her baby was missing, she was inconsolable and wanted to die. She had been with
a man for a few years, but they didn‘t get married. When the man found that the baby was missing, he
felt relieved. The man then abandoned the woman because of the pressure coming from his family.
Perhaps the woman was too sad. After that, she became crazy and silly. She was sold to a gambler.
Later, she gave birth to me. However, the gambler began to take drugs. He beat my mom every day
because he had no money to buy drugs. The man died because of excessive drug taking. My mom
then married a vendor. She gave birth to the son of that vendor. In less than two years, the vendor also
died. Isn‘t it amazing, like a TV drama?”
Savanna listened quietly and did not say anything.
However, her heart was not as calm as she looked on the surface. Like a stone that had been thrown
into a lake, Mia‘s words shocked Savanna.
Savanna was expressionless, and her face looked like the surface of the ocean without waves.
Mia could no longer remain calm. She shouted at Savanna, “You want to sue me for that old woman?
You want to send me to prison? Savanna, do you know that if it weren‘t for her, mother
wouldn‘t have lost you at all, nor would she have been abandoned by your biological father, let alone
marry a drug addict and a vendor?”
Mia sniffed and continued, “Of course, in that case, there won‘t be me and Rhett. But I would rather not
have been born. In this life, living is too painful.”
Savanna stood in place and did not move, but her face was frighteningly pale.
After a long while, she said, “You changed Lorena‘s medicine for revenge?”
Mia said, “What else can it be? Because of that old woman, I lived in utter misery. What do you think is
the reason that a woman leads a miserable life? It‘s just because of the grudge from many years ago.
Not only does Lorena hate Linda, but she also hates Linda‘s daughter. Mom and we are both the ones
she hates. If you don‘t believe me, go and investigate the grudge between Lorena and Linda, as well as
her grudge with Colten. You will know if I am telling the truth.”
Savanna turned around and closed her eyes in grief. “I will check it out. If you make it up, I won‘t let you
go, Mia.”
Savanna left, and Mia flipped the fruits and flowers Savanna had brought over to the floor.
Returning to the Moon Villas, Savanna was restless. She asked Neil to investigate Linda and Colten.
Soon, Neil replied, and Neil‘s reply was exactly the same as what Mia had said.
Savanna finally understood Lorena would not accept her as her great–granddaughter–in–law. She also
understood why Lorena had always been against her and even ordered Tracy to force her to drink
poison.
She finally understood why Brandon had compromised with Lorena time and time again. It was not
because he cared about his family relationship with Lorena, but because Brandon did not want to stand
against Savanna.
It could also be said that Brandon wanted to protect Savanna. He did not want to involve Savanna in
the grudge between the elders.
It turned out that Brandon had considered a lot for her.
In the evening, Brandon came back from work and saw Savanna sitting on the sofa in a daze. He took
off his coat and hung it on the hanger. He walked towards Savanna and sat beside her. He pulled her
into his arms and asked softly, “What‘s wrong?”
“Nothing. I‘m fine.” Savanna‘s voice was hoarse. It was obvious that she had cried.
Brandon‘s heart tightened. He held her chin and gently lifted it. As far as his eyes could see, there were
pearl–like tears on Savanna‘s face.
Brandon asked anxiously, “What happened?”
Savanna felt sorry for Brandon. She raised her hand and hugged Brandon so tight that Brandon almost
could not breathe.
