Savanna did not sleep that night. She stood on the terrace and waited for a night, but Brandon did not return.
When Debbie got up, she saw Savanna standing by the terrace. She looked back into the yard and did n ot see the black Cayenne.
Debbie was smart. She knew that Savanna was waiting for Brandon.
It seemed that Debbieâs words last night worked and Savanna changed her mind. But Brandon was nowhere to be seen, so Debbie was anxious.
She walked back to her room and called Brandon. âDebbie.â
Brandonâs voice was low and lazy.
âBrandon, why didnât you come back last night? Savanna waited for you the whole night.â
Brandon stopped writing. The ink fell onto the page and slowly faded away. Debbie was even more anxious since she didnât hear anything from Brandon. She shouted a few times, âHello.â
âYes, Iâm listening. Debbie.â
Brandon came back to his senses and he smiled happily, âIâll be right back.â
Brandon hung up the phone and quickly put on his coat. He even tidied his messy hair with the glass window. He had not been so excited for a long time. He had to go see Savann a in a decent way.
The black Cayenne entered the villa.
Brandon opened the car door and got out of the car. He looked up and saw a woman in white standing by the side of the balcony. Her face was very fair. Her fair skin added to her beauty. She took his breath away.
Brandonâs heart beat violently. He rushed upstairs like a young hotâ
blooded man. He saw the woman in white slowly turning her head. The indifference and alienation in her
eyes made him tremble with fear. He was startled and walked up. His tone was gentle and cautious. âDebbie said that you waited for me all ni ght?â
Savanna did not speak. She just pursed her lips. Her lips turned pale.
Savannaâs expression was ashen. Brandonâs beating heart seemed to be about to jump out of his chest. He held her hand and frowned. He quickly went back to his bedroom to get a piece of clothing and put it on Savanna. âSavanna, donât you know that itâs cold?â
Savanna looked at him and stared at him. She said, âBrandon, I have been waiting for you like this countless times. Last night, I was tortured like this again. Mary said that your hair turned grey overnight. Debbie said that you were suffering from depression. Last night I also heard the recording in the voice recorder you asked Barry to send me five years ago, including the one in your roo m. Surely. I was touched, but I was only touched. You said that Winnie saved your life. In fact, five years ago, I wanted to tell you that I also saved your life.â
Savanna raised her finger and pointed at Brandonâs lower right chest. âOne of my kidneys is here.â
Brandon widened his eyes in shock. He was so shocked that he widened his mouth but couldnât say anything Savanna had a faint smile in her eyes, and her voice was filled with disappointment. âI know you wonât be lieve me. Just pretend I never said anything.â
Savanna was about to walk away when she felt her elbow hurt. When she turned around, she saw Brandon, whose face had turned pale from shock. He pulled her into his arms and said in a trembling voi ce, âSavanna, I believe you. How could I not believe you?
âBack then, Winnie said that she was the one who donated me a kidney. I suspected it and found someo ne to investigate it. However, on the night of the operation, it was Winnie who accompanied me. When I
woke up, her face was pale and her body was very weak. And sheâ¦â
Savanna closed her eyes to hide the pain in her eyes. She didnât want to hear anything about Winnie.
Brandon saw her turn away and stopped talking in time.
In av Brandon steadied his breathing and restrained the surging excitement in his heart. He held Savannaâs slender shoulders, took a deep breath, and slowly said, âIâm sorry! Iâm really sorry. If I knew it was youâ¦â
Before he could finish, Savanna continued for him. âIf you knew that I donated the kidney, you wouldnât love Winnie, would you?â
Brandon could not answer Savannaâs question.
He was speechless.
Savanna covered her chest, and the smile on her face was extremely sarcastic. âBrandon, you love Winnie and are willing to abandon your wife and son for her. It turns out that your love is so cheap that you only love her because she gave you a kidney. Are your feelings for her based on love or gratitude? Back then, if you knew that it was me who donated the kidney, you would lov e me instead of Winne. Is that so? How can I accept your love? Shouldnât the feelings between men and women be purer?â
What Savanna wanted was pure love, which had nothing to do with anything else.
Therefore, she did not tell Brandon that she was the one who saved him.
âNo.â Brandonâs heart was in a frenzy as he was questioned by Savanna.
He rubbed his aching brows. He was helpless. âSavanna. At that time, Winnie lost her legs. Perhaps, I co uldnât let her go because I thought she was pitiful. Moreover, I always thought that if it werenât for me, she would have lived a bright and beautiful life. At least, she could still perform on the stage and enjoy the flowers and applause of the
audience.â
Savanna could tell that her heart seemed to have been stabbed by a knife, and blood fell from her chest.
âYouâre guilty.
âYou feel guilty about Winnie. Do you want to say that?â
Savannaâs voice was very light, very soft, with an unreal feeling.
This feeling caused fear to creep up on Brandonâs back.
âLâ¦â Brandon had no way of refuting Savannaâs words because every word that Savanna said was the tr âBrandon, Marry, and Debbie both said that you loved me and because you loved me too much, your hair got grey overnight and you regretted not treating me well. However, I never believed t Brandon stared at Savanna and he almost couldnât say a word. He was never as nervous as he was now. He open Brandon seemed to have felt that Savana wanted to leave. His eyes were red and his voice was hoarse. âCan you not leave He gritted his teeth. He hated those years without Savanna with him. What surrounded him was only loneline Savanna said with a cold smile, âSorry, I donât love you anymore. We canât go back anymore.â
Brandonâs eyes turned red. âSavanna. If you love me deeply, how could you give up on me so easily? In t âTwelve years. From the day I met you, my mind was filled with you. How many twelve years does a wom âI donât want to fall down at the same place twice.â
Savannaâs words stabbed Brandonâs heart like a steel knife, making him extremely painful.
He held her chin and forced her to look up at him. Her dark eyes reflected his anxious face.
âFor the sake of Mandel, give me another chance.â
He forgot about his selfâesteem and, for the first time in his life, he said something to beg others.
âMandel canât change our relationship.â
âAre you so coldâblooded?ââ Brandon asked weakly.
Savanna looked at him. And there were no other feelings for him in her heart. She stood there for one night and thought for one night. She was to
