“Did you give birth to him?” Mandel looked for a while, pointed at Tye, and asked Savanna.
Savanna nodded and replied with certainty, “Yes.”
Mandel’s eyes almost popped out of his wet eyes. “I don’t believe you. You lied to me. He does not.
look like me at all. How could he be my brother?”
Not only did Savanna’s eyes and brows jump, but her heart also began to beat fast.
She rubbed her forehead and sighed. “Have you heard of atavism?”
Mandel rolled his eyes and scratched his head. “He doesn’t look like my grandma either.”
Mandel meant Giselle.
Mandel subconsciously felt that his words were improper because he didn’t look like his grandmother
either.
When Savanna heard his words, she was overjoyed and immediately turned around. “You don’t look
like your grandmother either.”
Mandel thought for a long time, but he was still upset. “Even if he is my brother, he can’t randomly
smash my things. Alsó, he doesn’t look older than me. Why am I younger than him?”
Mandel’s words gave Savanna a headache.
Savanna couldn’t figure out who was older between Mandel and Tye.
Just now, Savanna didn’t know how to tell Mandel about Tye, so she casually made up a story. When
Mandel asked this, Savanna didn’t know how to explain.
Seeing that Savanna was in a difficult position, Mandel went on arguing, “Tell me, Savanna. Why am I
the younger one?”
He did not want to be the younger brother. For a long time, in the Cassel family, he had always been
the youngest.
Savanna glanced at Tye. Seeing that Tye had already lowered his head to play with the toys in the box
as if he did not care about what Mandel said to her, Savanna relaxed a little. “Alright, you are
his older brother.”
Mandel was satisfied by this answer. His face looked a little better. He looked at the illustration in his
hand that was torn into pieces, and frowned with distress, “He tore my illustration, so he has to
compensate me.”
Savanna said, “Your younger brother tore your illustration. He was careless. As the older brother, you
should forgive him.”
Mandel said, “This isn’t a matter of forgiveness. Savanna, if you indulge him like this, you will suffer the
consequences.”
Savanna rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache. She wailed in her heart, I am not indulging him. I
just…
Savanna swallowed the words that came to her mouth. How could she tell Mandel? As Tye had left his
parents for many years, she just wanted to make up for it. She did not indulge him.
However, at this moment, she was trying her best to defend Tye. Mandel’s accusation was not wrong.
Realizing this, Savanna felt her brain was a mess.
“You just love him more than you love me, don’t you?”
Savanna listened to Mandel’s angry words.
Savanna was totally speechless.
She grabbed Mandel’s small arm. “Mandel, he can’t talk. He accidentally tore your illustration. I’ll ask
Lizeth to buy you a more beautiful one later. Is that okay?”
Mandel looked at Tye çuriously when he heard that Tye could not speak.
Just as Savanna thought that Mandel would settle the matter peacefully, Mandel spoke again. “Even if
he can’t talk, he should apologize to me in his own way. Even if you ask Lizeth to buy a more beautiful
illustration for me, it is not the original one.”
Undoubtedly, Mandel was right.
Savanna felt that she could no longer speak for Tye.
Tye remained silent as if he did not care at all.
But Savanna was so worried.
Savanna tried to communicate with Tye. Her fingertips pinched Tye’s ears. “Did you hear what we
said? Mandel asked you to apologize to him. After all, you tore his illustration.”
Tye turned a deaf ear to her.
When Savanna was at her wit’s end, a small hand reached over and snatched away the toy pistol in
Tye’s hand. Tye raised his head, his long eyelashes blinking. He looked at the toy gun in Mandel’s
hand, his gaze cold and clear.
Mandel raised the toy gun in his hand. “This is mine. You can’t play without my permission.”
It was unknown whether it was because Mandel’s tone was too harsh or for some other reason,
Tye’s mouth shriveled and his eyelashes fluttered. His eyes turned red. Before Savanna could speak,
tears rolled down Tye’s cheeks.
Tears, wet and cold, seemed to fall one by one onto Savanna’s heart.
Savanna’s heart ached.
She hugged Tye and comforted him in a soft voice, “Baby, don’t cry. Wait a minute. I’ll get Lizeth to buy
more interesting toys.”
“Savanna, it is unfair. I just cried, but you didn’t comfort me, nor did you feel upset for me. You said.
that he was born by you, but I was also born by you. Savanna, you are so biased.”
Mandel’s accusation was like a knife cutting into Savanna’s heart.
“Mandel, he is autistic. He is different from you. Since you are his older brother, can you concession? It
is just a toy. In the past, I taught you that good things should be shared with everyone.”
Mandel looked at the entire shadow room carefully, and the unhappiness in his heart accumulated.
“When I wasn’t at home, he touched everything I had. You are just as biased as my father. You didn’t
like me, so why did you choose to give birth to me?”
“Who said I don’t like you?” As the voice fell, the man’s tall figure arrived at the door.
He entered the shadow room, looked at Mandel and Tye, and then looked at Savanna. Finally, his gaze
fell on the golden fragments on the ground. He got a general understanding of the situation.
Brandon’s big palm landed on Mandel’s thin shoulder. “I like you very much.”
Mandel pointed at Tye and asked, “Do you like me more than you like him?”
Brandon did not look at Tye and nodded. “Yes.”
Mandel cheered.
Savanna was so angry that her face turned pale. She grabbed Brandon’s sleeve and pulled him out of
the room. “Brandon, how will these two children get along with each other if you side with Mandel?
Brandon removed her hand and lowered his eyes. “How am I siding with Mandel? I am telling the truth.
I do like Mandel. As for that child…”
Brandon looked inside and said, “As for Tye, he can’t speak. Nothing will happen to him.”
What kind of logic was this?
Savanna was pissed off. “Brandon, Tye doesn’t know how to speak but it doesn’t mean that he has
love no emotions or thoughts. Are you out of your mind? In front of Tye, you tell Mandel that you him
more. Tye will be sad. Do you know what you are saying?
Brandon’s eyes were calm and he didn’t care. “I want to appease Mandel first and then comfort Tye.
But you pulled me out. This time, Tye will suspect even if he doesn’t doubt at first.”
Savanna was furious. What was this man thinking?
She had just pulled him out because he was partial to Mandel, and now that he was accusing her of
ruining the two boys’ relationship.
Savanna was so furious her words were filled with anger. “I noticed that something was wrong with you
this morning. You must have drunk too much last night and become muddle-headed. You don’t even
know which child is your son.”
Brandon’s eyes flashed and a vague light flashed through his eyes. The corners of his mouth
immediately raised into a smile. “Of course, I know which one is my child, but he is not the
biological one. We have raised him for so many years and we have affection for him. Savanna, don’t
say such things in the future. You are afraid of Tye getting hurt. Aren’t you afraid that Mandel will get
hurt? He is also our son.”
