Chapter 176
“You and Lucas‘ marriage is fake. You are single now, and Mandel needs you. I also need you. Savanna, why can‘t we reunite as a family of three?” Brandon was so excited that his eyes turned red and his chest heaved.
Savanna did not intend to answer. She wanted to get out of the car, but she could not break away from Brandon‘s hand. His hand was like a big plier, holding her hand and making her feel pain, just like that night five years ago. In order to escape, she tried her best to design a conspiracy.
Thinking about the hard and disgraceful time in prison five years ago, the light in Savanna‘s eyes shattered. “Brandon, five years ago, on the day I went to jail, I told myself that you and I would never be together in this lifetime.”
“Why did you do this to me?” Brandon roared.
“It was your father who framed you and schemed against you, but you gave me all your hatred and resentment. Savanna, this is unfair to me.”
Thinking back to the unforgettable past, Savanna was too sad to look back. She trembled as she. asked word by word, “Brandon, I really admire you. How can you say it so easily?”
Brandon had yet to understand her words when Savanna said coldly, “Let go.”
Not only did he not let go, he even tightened his grip on her hand, his throat moving slightly. “Savanna, tell me. What misunderstanding did you have with me five years ago? Why did you hate me so much?”
Savanna suddenly smiled. Her voice was very light, “It‘s all in the past. Hate is also a manifestation of love. Brandon, I don‘t hate you. I didn‘t hate you long ago.”
On the day she figured it out, Savanna no longer had any hatred in her heart.
Savanna gradually put off his hand which was like a large plier.
Savanna got out of the car.
Brandon watched her figure disappear into the distance. He clenched his fists so hard that he could stop the urge to rush up and pull her back.
He didn‘t want to force her. Brandon wanted to regain her heart, and he had to take it slowly.
Brandon kept telling himself in his heart.
Brandon couldn‘t fall asleep that night. Savanna‘s words echoed in his mind. Brandon, I really admire you. How can you say it so easily?
Savanna looked calm when she said this, but he could tell that her heart was filled with strong hatred.
Brandon was heartbroken at the thought that Savanna hated him.
That night, he swallowed two sleeping pills before he fell asleep.
In the morning, the headache was unbearable. When Brandon woke up, there was only himself in the large room.
Previously, he felt that Savanna was gone, and he could hold on alone. No matter how hard it was, he had to live for Mandel.
However, now, Savanna was alive, but she was unwilling to return to his side, unwilling to be with him. Her pain and unwillingness, like poison, corroded his heart.
Brandon shaved his beard, tidied himself, and went downstairs.
Mandel was wearing a vest in the dining room downstairs. His hair was combed and smooth. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Brandon enter. He lowered his eyes and silently ate breakfast.
Seeing his son ignore him, Brandon felt even worse. “Mandel, do you want Savanna to be with you at home?”
Mandel raised his head and looked at Brandon in surprise. He was five years old. In Mandel‘s memory, his father had never called him so gently.
And he mentioned Savanna.
Mandel was definitely willing to stay with Savanna. The light in his eyes suddenly brightened, so he replied without thinking, “I want.”
“I know where Savanna is. I‘ll take you to her.”
“Okay,” Mandel responded, but his eyes were rolling around as if he was wondering what Brandon wanted to do.
Mandel finished his breakfast. Brandon took a piece of toast and smeared tomato sauce on the toast.
When they arrived at their destination, Mandel saw that it was the entrance of a hotel. He asked Brandon curiously, “Savanna lives here?”
Mandel thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
He had just taken a few steps out of the car when he returned. Mandel leaned against the window and looked at Brandon with a faint hostility in his eyes. “Dad, don‘t tell me you like her too.”
