Love Has its Will by Selena Lewis novel Chapter 369

Chapter 369

Savanna took a bite of the egg white and looked around. Somehow, she sensed something was amiss. Then Lizeth came in with a fruit salad. Suddenly it dawned on Savanna what went wrong.

Then she asked, “Lizeth, where is Seth?”

Lizeth put down the plate and wiped the sweat on her forehead. There were some dark circles under her eye, which suggested that she didn’t sleep well last night. “I don’t know. I haven’t seen him since yesterday. And I failed to contact him either.”

Then both Lizeth and Savanna turned to Brandon.

Brandon, who had finished his breakfast, was wiping his fingers with a tissue. Then he looked up, only to find Savanna and Lizeth looking at him. With his face cold and his voice emotionless, he said, “I sent him on a secret mission. Lizeth, don’t contact him for the time being.”

Due to Brandon’s words, all doubts were erased from Lizeth’s mind.

But after thinking a bit, Lizeth, with a frown on her face, still seemed worried. “Mr. Cassel, what mission is it? Can’t I contact him?”

Lizeth thought, I’m his girlfriend.

What kind of mission would forbid a man from contacting his girlfriend?

Brandon’s voice remained cold. “No.”

Lizeth wasn’t resigned to that. But Savanna signaled to her to stop. Then Brandon stood up and left without a backward glance.

Lizeth, feeling wronged, looked at Savanna. “Savanna, I…”

Savanna patted Lizeth on the shoulder gently.

“Seth is just away carrying out a secret mission. After the mission, he then will come back to you.”

Lizeth’s eyes were slightly red. “I was up all night waiting for him last night. I mean, even if it’s an urgent task, he should have called me.”

Brandon didn’t dare to say anything about Brandon. Therefore, she just put the blame on Seth.

“Savanna, do you think Seth didn’t contact me because he doesn’t care about me?”

Savanna thought for a moment and said, “Lizeth, it’s all in your mind. If you love him, you need to trust him.”

Speaking of trust, Savanna felt that there was something off with Brandon this morning. But she could not tell what that was.

At noon after lunch, Savanna was taking a rest upstairs as usual. Then a car horn sounded from downstairs. Savanna woke up.

Then she got up, walked to the windowsill, and looked out. There was a Cayenne in the courtyard. After the door opened, Brandon, with a tall figure, came out of the car. In his wake, Mandel, with a tiny figure, got out of the car as well. Brandon did say in the morning that he was going to pick up Mandel. But Savanna didn’t expect that to happen so quickly. And why didn’t Brandon ask her to pick up the child together anyway?

Savanna walked out of the room and went downstairs. Just as she got to the living room, she saw Brandon, with Mandel’s small hand in his, walking in.

Mandel’s cheeks were ruddy, and his eyes were bright. At the sight of Savanna, he rushed over happily and threw his arms around Savanna’s leg. “Savanna, I miss you so much. Why didn’t you come to see me?”

As he said, Mandel kept rubbing his cheek on Savanna’s pants.

Savanna bent over, held up his face, and kissed him on the forehead. “I have been feeling unwell these days. I had planned to go see you after I got better. But look at you. You are already here before I can reach out to you.”

Savanna then glanced at Brandon, only to find that he was not looking at her at all. Instead, he went right upstairs with a small suitcase in his hand.

“Was you who made Brandon unhappy?” Savanna scratched Mandel softly on the nose and asked lovingly.

Mandel turned around and looked at Brandon a bit before shaking his head. “No, I wasn’t. Brandon had been keeping me in his arms all the while in the hospital. And when we were about to leave. there, he offered to carry me. But I turned him down. I mean, come on. I’m already five and a half years old. People will laugh at me if they see him carrying me.

“Am I right, Savanna?” Mandel’s eyes rolled a bit.

Probably because he was just discharged from the hospital, Mandel looked extremely happy. He even made a face at Savanna playfully.
