Chapter 183
Brandon‘s lips trembled violently. In the rain, he watched Savanna fade out of his world.
He stretched his fingers and grabbed only the cold rain and air.
Brandon got into the car, lit a cigarette, and looked at the pouring rain outside the
window.
He recalled the past when Savanna looked at him with a pair of infatuated eyes. Those passionate and expectant eyes would no longer be his again.
Brandon felt a numbing pain in his heart.
Brandon put out the cigarette, started the car, and drove into the rain.
“Bang!” A flurry of shattering sounds came! The glass shattered on the ground, and a few pieces splashed over, scratching the corner of Brandon‘s eyes.
Brandon got out of the car and looked at the tall man in front of him. The hostility between the man‘s brows leaked out as if he wanted to skin Brandon alive.
Another big red Bentley came through the rain and stopped beside them. Ben ran out of the car.
He rushed in front of Bob and grabbed his collar. He shouted angrily, “Bob, Brandon won‘t do anything like that. Calm down.”
Bob didn‘t even look at Ben as he stared at Brandon with his cold eyes.
Brandon furrowed his brows and walked towards Bob, saying, “What‘s the matter?”
The light in Bob‘s eyes shattered into hatred, and he swung his fist toward Brandon.
Ben caught Bob‘s fist, shocked, anxious, and angry. He said, “Bob, I think you are crazy.”
“Let go of me,”
Bob roared.
His eyes were blood red.
Ben would not let go of Bob. He shouted eagerly, “Bob, we have sworn to be brothers. We‘ll share our troubles and fortune together. I trust Brandon. He‘s definitely not that kind of person.”
Bob withdrew his gaze from Brandon‘s face and fixed it on Ben. He said, “I trusted him too much, but he tricked me in the end. I was really blind. How could I treat the cold–faced Mr. Cassel as a brother?”
Without waiting for Ben to respond, Bob added, “You have been friends with him for so many years. The relationship between you and him is naturally closer than that between you and me. Ben, I warn you, if you don‘t get out of my way, our friendship will end here today.”
Ben was anxious. Anger smoldered in his eyes. He said, “What are you talking about? Right now, I treat both of you as my brothers. Bob, your words hurt my heart.”
Brandon got the faint feeling that things were getting worse. He moved his lips and . said, “What exactly happened?”
“Stop pretending.” Bob‘s roar was earth–shaking. He broke free from Ben and smashed his fist into the electric pole. Blood fell from his fingertips, washed to the ground by the rain, and then flowed into the pothole.
Brandon had never seen Bob like this. It was as if Bob wanted to cut Brandon into a thousand pieces. Brandon walked forward and wanted to say something, but was pushed away by Bob. Bob pushed so hard that Brandon fell to the ground.
Before he could get up, Bob roared and drove the car away in the rain.
The rain washed over Brandon‘s face. His long eyelashes were stuck together, and he could not open his eyes. He could only squint his eyes. There was a coldness in his eyes.
“Brandon,” Ben helped him up. Seeing that Brandon‘s face was shrouded in a haze of fear, Ben quickly explained, “Something happened to the Dawson family.”
“What happened?”
Seeing that Brandon really didn‘t know, Ben slowly opened his mouth and said, “The funds can‘t be recovered. Dawson Investment Bank has fallen completely this time. The news has it that Sam couldn‘t take the blow and died of cerebral infarction. Bob‘s mother also killed herself to follow her husband. The Dawson family is over.”
It was understandable that Bob blamed Brandon for this.
Brandon‘s cold face tensed up a bit.
Ben carefully added, “Bob suspects that you are the one behind the scenes because that group of people was hired by you.”
Brandon sneered and asked, “The people I hired must listen to me?”
What kind of logic was this?
He asked Lucas, “Is the money you gave Savanna from the Dawson Group?”
