Chapter 295
The Hilton Hotel.
In the hall, a wedding was going on. The waiters in white suits and waitresses in black skirt were busy serving the guests.
On the huge TV screen was a celebrity interview.
A slender woman was serving the dishes. The familiar low and husky voice of the man echoed in her ears from time to time.
The program had already been broadcasting for nearly twenty minutes. She wanted to go over to switch channels, but she didn’t have the time. Perhaps, she also wanted to know why he held the press conference.
In her impression, Brandon loved doing such kind of thing.
“Two years of marriage. Five years of separation. My love makes me suffer. My love wants us to get a life separately. But I only want to share the rest of my life with my beloved one.”
The woman’s body froze. She was suddenly at a loss.
A customer shouted, “Miss, hello? You are going to spill the soup on me.”
Only then did the woman come back to her senses. She immediately said to the customer, “I’m sorry.”
She turned around to leave but her eyes fell on the man in a suit on the big screen. He was so handsome. His eyes were dark and deep. He looked kind of anxious. And what he said later stunned the woman.
“Come back, we are waiting for you.”
Savanna knew that the ‘we’ meant Brandon and Mandel.
She stared at the big screen in a daze until the press conference ended.
Then, she ran all the way back to the dormitory and sat on her bed, feeling more disturbed by Brandon’s words.
She could tell that Brandon really loved her.
If he didn’t, he would not have held a press conference to find her, and would not have said those words in public.
He was trying to move her, and make her go back
Savanna controlled her sobs and took a breath. Facing the mirror, she touched her mask, her hand trembling slightly.
She grabbed at the corner of the mask with her fingertips.
With a hiss, the mask fell off. She looked at her ruined face in the mirror. A tear rolled down her eyes. It was as clear as a pearl and slowly fell to the tip of her heart, soaking the clothes on her chest.
She lowered her head and wiped her tears with a tissue. Her eyes fell on the phone screen. She saw a trending topic and she clicked in.
There were several pictures posted. The official account of the Thompson Group post sent a few words, saying, “I want to spend the rest of my life with you, only you. No matter what happened, I want you to be back We’ll face everything together. He misses you, very much.”
Brandon was reserved on the TV show. Yet now, it couldn’t be clearer.
Brandon said Mandel was missing her.
Savanna got another notification. The official account of the Thompson Group posted some new photos.
In the first picture, two white bears wearing red flowers were hugging, one big and one little.
In the second picture, the big bear disappeared. The little bear stood in the forest, lonely and helpless. Its eyes were filled with tears.
In the third picture, a big white hair without hair was standing on the grassland with a little bear in his arms. They were looking towards the other end of the mountain.
The three pictures told a story.
In the first one, the mother and son were enjoying their time together. In the second one, the mother left, and the son was lonely and desperate. In the third one, the father held his son and waited with infatuation.
Knock knock!
The sudden knock on the door interrupted Savanna’s thoughts. She quickly exited the Twitter of the Thompson Group.
“Sophia, hurry. The manager is looking for you.” Rosa’s voice came from outside.
“At once,” Savanna responded and quickly put on the mask again.
Rosa pushed open the door. Seeing that Savanna was in a daze on the bed, she urged, “Sophia, the manager is angry. You should be quicker!”
Ben struggled to look away from Savanna.
An hour ago, Ben and Bob were having fun in the Night nightclub. A girl accompanying them saw a clip of a celebrity show online. Hearing Brandon’s announcement, Ben and Bob felt sad for him.
Knowing that Brandon did not like the Night nightclub, Bob and Ben decided to invite Brandon to Hilton. They wanted to comfort Brandon and see if they could help look for Savanna.
Ben called Brandon. “Where are you?”
“Almost there.”
Brandon’s voice came over. Then he hung up.
Savanna came over with two bottles of wine. She walked past Ben and Bob, then opened the wine for them.
Savanna knew that Bob and Ben were Brandon’s good friends.
Since they were here, Brandon would most likely be here too.
She looked around. Not seeing Brandon, Savanna’s tense heart relaxed a little.
The red wine bottle finally opened. Savanna poured the wine for Bob and Ben then turn around to leave. But Bob
suddenly stopped her. “Another one.”
Savanna’s heart trembled. There were only two people in the room. The third glass should be for Brandon.
Holding her breath, Savanna poured another glass of wine. After saying “Please enjoy yourself”, she rushed out of the box like she was escaping.
Ben wanted to chase after Savanna. Bob held his hand. “You scared her away. I just looked at her carefully. I don’t think she is as beautiful as you think she is.”
Hearing Bob’s words, Ben finally calmed down.
If she wasn’t beautiful, then he wouldn’t be interested.
Savanna had just walked out of the private room when Brandon walked over from the opposite side. Savanna felt that the muscles on her face were twitching from nervousness. If she was not wearing a mask, her nervousness would definitely give her away.
