“Bang!”
Brandon shut the door and left with a darkened face after being provoked.
Roya, who was sleeping soundly, was scared awake and burst into tears.
“Darling, be good. Don’t cry.” Savanna quickly held her in her arms to pacify her.
Feeling her mother’s breath and hearing her mother’s voice, Roya quickly stopped crying. Instead, she
quietly held Savanna’s arm and smelled the aura on her.
Savanna paced around the room with Roya in her arms as she thought about how to deal with it.
Even if she was locked up, she would not just wait without doing anything.
Walking to the window, she lifted the curtain and looked down. There were two doors on the side of the
villa. They were guarded.
“Roya, do you think I look like a canary?” Savanna teased herself.
The baby naturally didn’t know what she meant. She just stared at Savanna and smiled sweetly.
“Ms. Thompson, lunch is ready.”
At noon, Lizeth came up to knock on the door and asked her to have lunch downstairs. Savanna
borrowed Lizeth’s phone while there was no one around.
“Ms. Thompson, what happened between you and Mr. Cassel? Why did he keep you here?” Lizeth
asked as she took out her phone.
Ever since Savanna came back, there were several bodyguards in black at the entrance of the villa, all
of them guarding the door vigilantly.
“I will tell you in detail later.” Savanna took the phone and called Janet.
“Hello, who is it?”
The moment she got through, the phone was taken away by a strong force.
Savanna turned around and saw Brandon appear behind her with a dark face. “What are you doing?
Who do you want to call?”
“I didn’t.” Savanna tried to quibble, but Janet’s voice came from the receiver.
“Is it Savanna?” Janet recognized her friend’s voice from the receiver. “What happened?”
“How dare you lie to me?”
Brandon hung up the phone and looked at her coldly.
“You want to ask for help?”
He took a step forward and Savanna was forced to step back.
“Try to escape?”
The man took another step forward, and Savanna stepped back again.
Brandon was like a demon, giving off an evil vibe. Seeing this, Savanna couldn’t help but tremble.
“Brandon, you keep me here. This is against the law!”
“You can ask for help or sneak away, but I will make all these people who help you pay the price!”
“This is the first time you’ve done this. I won’t punish you. If it happens again, those nosy people will be
punished!” While saying this, he smashed the phone on the ground heavily.
Savanna stared at the phone that had been smashed into pieces and said hatefully, “Brandon, you are
so despicable.”
Brandon knew that he couldn’t keep her, so he threatened her with the safety of the people around her.
How did he become so shameless?
“Brandon, I hate you. Even if you could keep me here, you wouldn’t be able to keep my heart!”
Savanna felt that the man in front of her was very strange. They had slept in the same bed for so many
years, but she felt that she had never really known him.
A man who could dominate the business world was never a fool. A smart man like Brandon was good
at suppressing people with one move.
She still did not understand him too well.
Later, Savanna no longer had the mood to have lunch. She turned back to the room in a huff.
Not long after, the room door was opened.
Brandon came in with the ringing phone. It was her phone. It was Janet who called her.
Janet must have been worried about her safety when the call was suddenly hung up.
“If you don’t want to implicate her, you should know what to say.” Brandon handed the phone over.
Savanna stared at him tiredly. “Mr. Cassel, what do you mean by this? Do you want to lock me up for a
lifetime?”
Brandon could deal with a big business fast. As for the divorce, he had thought about it for days and
nights but couldn’t come up with a perfect solution.
He wanted to make her stay, but he was afraid that she would be in pain.
On the one hand, he wanted to let her have her wish. But on the other hand, he was afraid of losing
her.
“Answer the phone.” Brandon gave the phone to her.
Savanna pressed the answer button.
“Savanna, what are you doing? Why haven’t you answered the phone for so long?” Janet’s voice came
from the other
side of the receiver.
“I didn’t hear you just now, Janet. Why did you call me?”
“I want to know why you called me just now. You just said a few words. Why did you hang up?”
Savanna remembered what Brandon said. She did not want to implicate her good friend. She lied, “I
want to know more about Tye. I’ve been too busy these days and didn’t show much concern for him.”
“Tye is quite good. I have discussed it with his psychologist. We’ll observe him for a while. If there are
no problems, he can transfer to an ordinary school.”
This was undoubtedly the best news Savanna had heard in recent days. If Tye could live like a normal
child, then after the divorce, it would be much easier for her to take care of her two kids on her own.
Such exciting news strengthened Savanna’s conviction to get a divorce.
Moreover, Brandon had become so paranoid. If she stayed with him, she would only suffer.
After talking with Janet for a while, Savanna put the phone back in Brandon’s hand after hanging up the
phone.
“I’m going to the hospital for a follow-up consultation in the afternoon.” Savanna raised her foot,
revealing a scar that had yet to heal.
There was an ugly scar on her fair feet, which didn’t look good.
“I know what you’re thinking. I’ll call the family doctor over.”
The previous family doctor was Rex, and now it was naturally impossible to call him over.
Savanna shook her head. “I don’t trust your doctor. I want to go to the hospital.”
“Alright, I’ll go with you.”
Brandon was monitoring her even though he said that he was with her. Savanna was clear about that
but still nodded.
Brandon drove her to the hospital after she was done packing.
His hand was still wrapped in gauze, but he was driving as if nothing had happened.
“Why don’t you let the driver send me to the hospital? Your hand…”
Before she could finish speaking, Brandon interrupted her, “Are you worried about me, Savanna?”
Savanna was afraid that he would think too much, so she deliberately sneered, “I was afraid that you
would not be able to drive properly. In that case, Roya and I would die because of you.”
“No. I will pull you back even if you reach the gates of hell unless I die.”
In the past, Savanna would feel extremely moved when she heard such words, but now there was only
sorrow.
She leaned against the passenger seat and thought in despair, why did it come to this?
Is this a punishment for me? At that time, if I didn’t do that, would it be….
After arriving at the hospital, Brandon took out the wheelchair from the trunk and pushed her to the
consulting room.
The wound that had been cut by glass shards was not very deep. In addition, she lay on the bed for a
few days. The wound had already formed scabs. Thus, there was no risk of further infection.
After checking the wounds, the doctor prescribed some medicine to remove the scars. After giving
some instructions,
he let them leave.
It was embarrassing to sit in a wheelchair and be watched by passers-by.
Savanna said, “I want to come down and walk by myself.”
Brandon, who was pushing her behind, remained silent as if he hadn’t heard her.
Savanna was annoyed. She wanted to stand up. After all, her legs were not broken.
She propped her arm on the armrest and tried to get up. Just as she tried to stand up, she was pressed
back by
Brandon
“Sit down.”
Savanna gritted her teeth in anger and saw a sign in front of her. She quickly stood up when Brandon
was not paying attention.
“You don’t want your feet anymore?” Brandon frowned.
“Can’t I go to the bathroom?” Savanna pointed to the logo of the bathroom next to him. “Mr. Cassel, are
you going to the Ladies’ room too?”
Knowing that he would not follow, Savanna walked in with light steps.
Brandon looked at her back and noticed her feelings. He felt irritated. He casually pushed the
wheelchair to the side and waited with his back against the wall. His eyes were filled with gloom.
