Chapter 43

Brandon had sharp eyes and saw the license plate. He bought the car for her about half a year ago, and the license plate was chosen by her.

Brandon’s deep eyes flashed with a hint of sadness.

SS

He was right. She was indeed trying to help Gordon.

She even asked his mother for help.

She could do anything for a man who she had only known for less than a month.

Cain, Leo, and Gordon…

Brandon smiled bitterly and sorrowfully.

She liked all men, except for him.

Brandon entered the living room, and Giselle came forward. “Did you meet Savanna?”

“No.”

Brandon was in a bad mood, so he replied briefly.

“I really don’t understand what you want to do. Her friend seems to be very important to her. She came to me just now and was in a daze. Brandon, why don’t you let Joshua help her?”

Joshua Mckinney was the top lawyer of the Cassel Group.

He could deal with all kinds of lawsuits.

Giselle could not bear to see Savanna suffer, so she wanted to help her daughter-in-law.

“Keep your hands off the matters about Savanna.” Brandon’s face was very cold. He pulled off the tie around his neck and walked upstairs. Suddenly, he thought of something. He stopped and turned around. He looked at Giselle with deep eyes and warned, “Otherwise, I will cut you off.”

Giselle shivered. She looked at her son’s tall back upstairs. Her lips trembled, and her face turned

slightly pale

Even on the day when he brought Winnie’s ashes back, or when she chased Winnie out, Brandon didn’t talk to her like this.

Giselle felt the situation was a little serious.

Although she was sorry for Savanna, she was a little angry about Savanna’s decision of abortion.

She did not dare to meddle in the affairs between Savanna and Brandon.

Although she was sorry for Savanna, she was a little angry about Savanna’s decision of abortion.

She did not dare to meddle in the affairs between Savanna and Brandon.

Giselle hoped that they would make up.

Savanna had just returned home when Leo called her. Leo told her that a lawyer was willing to take over Gordon’s case. Savanna and Leo were excited. Savanna asked Leo to come over and talk. Ten minutes later, Leo appeared.

They talked in the hall for a while, and Leo’s phone rang. He walked to the balcony after he answered the phone.

Savanna went to the kitchen to prepare a plate of strawberries. When she returned, she saw that Leo had already finished the call. His face was gloomy. She frowned and asked.

“Who called you?”

“The lawyer said that he was too busy to take over Gordon’s case.”

It was obvious that someone had done something to stop that lawyer.

Their hope was dashed. Both of them remained silent. The atmosphere was solemn, and neither of

them spoke.

The veins on Savanna’s fingers that held the crystal fruit plate bulged, and her teeth creaked.

She put down the fruit plate.

Savanna turned to put on her coat. She had just taken a step when Leo grabbed her arm. “Savanna, we can’t act rashly.”

Savanna looked at him, and her chest seemed to be burning with anger.

“Leo, it’s all my fault. Gordon was arrested because of me. I have to talk to Brandon about this.”

“We have no evidence,” Leo said weakly.

“If it wasn’t him, who else could it be?”

Savanna shouted excitedly, “He just doesn’t want me to be happy. I made a mistake and married him. Do I have to live in the shadow for the rest of my life?”

Her anger made sense.

However, Leo knewclearly why Brandon had done this.

He didn’t want Savanna to go to Brandon, not only because he didn’t want to break his calm

He didn’t want Savanna to contact Brandon.

Leo knew that he might be too greedy.

“Savanna, maybe … Mr. Cassel … likes you.”

Brandon liked her?

When Savanna heard this, she actually burst out laughing as if she had heard the biggest joke.

“Leo, we all know that the woman he likes is Winnie. He can do anything for Winnie.”

Leo lowered his gaze and looked at Savanna’s foot. After a while, he said slowly.

“If he loved Winnie, it would be impossible for him to find another woman during this period.”

“That’s because Winnie’s legs were broken. She can’t satisfy him.”

Savanna said bluntly.

“Savanna…”

Leo wanted to say something but was interrupted by Savanna. “Stop…”

The muscles on Savanna’s face trembled uncontrollably from anger.

No matter what Leo said, it couldn’t calm the anger in her heart. She had endured it for a long time.

Suddenly, a buzz sounded.

Leo’s cell phone rang. He lowered his eyes and saw the words “Mr. Cassel” on the screen. He

frowned.

His heart was beating like a drum. He paused for two seconds, then raised his finger, and pressed the answer button. “Hello.”

“You are Leo Baker?”

It was not Brandon, but an unfamiliar male voice.

“Yes, I am”

“I am Mr. Cassel’s assistant, Jim Raymond. Mr. Cassel said that you still had a month’s salary. He

asked you to come over and get the money,” Jim said.

“Now?”

Leo looked out the window. It was at night. The lights in the city were on.

“Anytime,” Jim replied.

“Alright.”

After hanging up, Leo was silent and did not say a word.

Savanna frowned and asked, “Who called you?”

“Jim.”

Leo’s soft answer made Savanna angry again.

Everyone knew that Jim was Brandon’s new assistant. He was just a lackey of Brandon.

Rage began to burn in Savanna’s chest again.

“What did he say?”

“He asked me to get my last salary.”

Leo replied as he walked out the door. After taking two steps, he stopped again. It seemed that he felt that he should say something to Savanna. He turned back and said to Savanna.

“Don’t worry. It will be fine.”

Before Savanna could speak, Leo had hurried out of her villa.

Savanna chased after him, only to see the car that Leo drove over quickly pass her.

Savanna got into her car and buckled the seat belt. She chased after him in a hurry.

She had just reached the intersection when she heard a loud bang in front of her. Two cars collided, and the collision was tragic. The car that had been hit on the roadside was Leo’s.

In a flash, Savanna was so nervous that her heart almost jumped out of her chest.

Savanna stopped the car and quickly ran up. There were many people around, and the traffic police quickly came over. She pushed aside the crowd and turned Leo over with her trembling hands. What she saw was blood.

Savanna was so scared that her heart almost stopped beating.

She covered Leo’s face with her hands, and soon, the warm blood fell through her snow-white fingers.

Her hand trembled as she called the ambulance.

The ambulance whistled over and the medical staff moved Leo into the car. Savanna followed the

ambulance

They were rushing to the hospital.
