Chapter 136 Why Are You Going to Blue Bay No. 1?
Brandonâs words cut deep into Savannaâs heart, leaving it in bloody pain.
She bit her lips and said in a trembling voice, âI didnât die. You⦠Why did you tell him that I died?â
Brandon looked at her with a deep and pained gaze.
âSavanna, in a sense, you abandoned him when you went to jail so decisively five years ago, and Iâ¦â
Brandon paused. He remembered the day when Savanna went to jail five years ago. To him, the simple
pain was indescribable.
âMom has always been the one taking care of him.â
In a split second, Savannaâs lips trembled even more. She asked, âHow can you leave him to someone e lse?â
Mandel had lost his mom already, and if Brandon left him, he would also lose his dad. Savannaâs heart ached to the point
of dripping blood.
Brandon held her shoulder. The cigarette burned his hand, but he did not care. He really wanted to quest ion her, asking her what made her think that she still had the right to see the child since she left five years ago.
But Brandonâs heart softened as he looked at Savannaâs misty eyes.
His heart froze, and he swallowed the words he wanted to say.
Afraid that she would worry, Brandon explained, âOver the past few years, the Cassel Group has been expanding th eir business, and I didnât have the time to take care of him. Donât worry, my mother has been taking good care of him.â
As she heard Brandonâs words, Savannaâs eagerness to see the child grew fiercer.
Savanna pulled Brandonâs sleeve and gently pulled it down. She asked, âCan you arrange a time for me to meet him?â
Her voice was light and full of begging.
Brandon really wanted to refuse her, but he couldnât be so cruel.
Seeing that he was hesitating, Savanna knew what he was worried about and said eagerly, âItâs fine to ju st let me look from afar.â
Brandonâs gaze was deep. Just as he was about to say something, his brows suddenly furrowed. With a l ow cry, the cigarette fell from his fingertips.
Under the light, Savanna looked at the two fingers that were burned red by the cigarette butt. Her heart was seized by mixed feelings.
She wanted to say some words of concern, but the smell of alcohol emitted from his body and the red lipstick mark on his neck were so dazzling.
Brandon felt displeased when he saw Savanna pursing her lips without saying anything. He thought, if it is Lucas or Cain who gets injured, she wouldnât be so indifferent.
Brandonâs mind was replaying the scene of Savanna and Lucas kissing when he went to work the day before yesterday.
Brandon let out a muffled chuckle and said sarcastically, âHe is very busy with his studies. Iâm afraid he doesnât have
the time.â
Savanna knew it was just an excuse because Mandel was only a kid in kindergarten. She knew Brandon did not want her to meet the child.
Brandonâs refusal made Savanna angry. She could not suppress the anger in her chest. âYou said you didnât have time to take care of Mandel, but you have time to play with women here.â
Brandon smiled when he heard this. He looked at her with a judgmental gaze, his eyebrows slightly raise d.
âWhether I play with women or not, Ms. Thompson does not seem to have the right to criticize me, right?â
All of a sudden, Savanna felt a lump in her chest. They had divorced, so she naturally had no right to me ddle with his life. But no matter what, she was still Mandelâs biological mother, which was a fact that could not
be changed.
âReturn Mandel to me if you canât take care of him.â
Savannaâs request made the smile on Brandonâs face fade bit by bit. He looked at her with deep, hot, and hostile eyes. He asked, âYou want to steal the child again?
âSavanna, you didnât have the right to say this five years ago, and you still donât today. I wonât let you see the child unless you return to me, or forge t it.â
Brandon was too angry to be gentle with his words. He directly threw out these harsh words, which he ha d wanted to say a long time ago.
He wanted to say this the moment Savanna called him, but he didnât because he did not want to hurt her.
âYouâ¦â
Savanna gritted her teeth. Her eyes were red, and her body trembled with anger.
The door opened, and Ben poked his head out and looked into the aisle. With just a glance, Ben could see the subtle displeasure between the two.
He pushed the door open and walked out.
âSavanna, whatâs wrong?â
Savanna didnât want to look at Ben and turned her face away.
Ben didnât mind Savannaâs attitude towards him. He said to Brandon, âBrandon, Judy is still waiting for yo u to have a drink.â
Brandon gave Ben a calm glance, which sent shivers down Benâs spine. He raised his hands as a token of surrender an d said. âOkay, Iâll drink with her.â
As Ben walked back, he muttered to herself, âThat woman is so coquettish. Canât you see Brandon is hol ding beauty in his arms?â
Walking to the door, Ben turned back again. He deliberately walked to Savanna. Savanna turned her face to the right, and he walked to the right. Ben said, âSavanna, in fact, you misunderstood Brandon . He has always been thinking about you. He has a hard time. Look at him. His hair is all grey. Both Bob
and I admire him!â
Savanna looked at Brandon out of the corner of her eyes. Unfortunately, Brandon was also looking at her . When their eyes met, Savannaâs heart tightened, and she looked away in time.
Brandon impatiently shouted at Ben, âShut up and get lost.â
Ben licked his lips and quickly disappeared.
Brandon knew that Ben wanted to be the peacemaker, but there were too many problems between him a nd Savanna. A few words could not eliminate misunderstandings.
Originally, the two of them were already at loggerheads, but Benâs interference somewhat dispersed the unhappy atmosphere .
Savanna also calmed down.
She said, âI gotta go. Letâs talk about this again when you think it through.â
Just as she took a step, her arm was grabbed by a strong force.
Savanna turned her head back Her gaze met with the indifferent and calm eyes of Brandon, who said, âLet me give you a ride.â
Savanna was about to say no.
But Brandon already let go of her hand and said to her, âWait for me.â
Then he walked into the box.
Not long later, when he came out, he had a coat on his arm.
Brandon and Savanna entered the elevator one after another. The red numbers on the elevator wall jump They arrived on the first floor in a moment.
Savanna looked at his black Cayenne, and only then did she remember that her Bentley had stopped at th She didnât know if the traffic police saw it.
She missed the child, so when Brandon was willing to talk to her, she rushed over.
A cool breeze blew, and the smell of alcohol from Brandon drifted over. Savanna covered her nose and sa Brandon nodded in agreement without the slightest hesitation. Sitting on the passenger seat of Savannaâs After all, they were once husband and wife, and Savanna still had affection for him.
However, Brandonâs happiness didnât last long.
On the way, Savanna asked Brandon, âWhere should I send you?â
anna Brandon thought about it and replied, âLetâs go to Blue Bay No. 1 first.â
with an emergency brake, the car almost hit the car in front.
Savanna was so surprised that she couldnât care about the panic in her heart due to the near car accident She asked, âWhy are you going to Blue Bay No. 1?â
