Chapter 53
Brandon thought, am I dirty? No one dares to say that to me, but she despises me for being dirty.
Brandon felt extremely upset. He gritted his teeth and asked, “Savanna, why do you think that I am dirty?”
Savanna looked at Brandon coldly.
Brandon couldn’t stand her strange gaze. It was as if a knife had fiercely stabbed into his chest, causing him so much pain.
At that moment, he really wanted to strangle Savanna. In the end, he endured it.
Brandon did not want Winnie to disturb them. He hoped Savanna would understand him. So, he tried to explain with the greatest patience.
“Winnie is in danger. She can’t live in Blue Bay Villa. In other words, she can’t live anywhere else. Is this clear enough?”
“Yes.”
Savanna nodded.
The smile on her lips was still cold.
“Is there anything else to say?”
Brandon didn’t know what else he could say as he looked at Savanna. His fists were tightly clenched, and his lips were a little pale. He was so angry.
“I hope that you can coexist peacefully with her. As long as Winnie gives birth to a child, I will send her away.”
Brandon promised Savanna.
However, it seemed that Savanna ignored his promise.
Savanna stared into Brandon’s eyes. “Don’t worry, Brandon. As long as she doesn’t cause trouble, I
won’t care about anything.”
Brandon, you are not worthy of my care.
Savanna thought.
Savanna turned around and went upstairs without turning back.
Brandon stood there for a long time, and his knuckles turned white. After a long while, he stepped into the study. Later, Brandon did not leave the study for the entire afternoon.
Savanna slept for the entire afternoon.
In the evening, Mary called Savanna to go down for dinner. Savanna said that she did not want to eat. Mary went downstairs and told Brandon.
Brandon sat at the dining table stiffly. Winnie, who was sitting opposite him, stopped drinking the soup. She looked up and said pitifully to Brandon, “Brandon, Savanna might be angry. I’m sorry for disturbing you.”
Brandon did not answer her but compressed his lips.
After a moment of silence, he called Mary.
“Send some food to Savanna.”
“Sure.”
Mary sent the food into the master bedroom and retreated out.
Brandon and Winnie were eating quietly at the dining table. Winnie finished the soup and ate some food. Brandon had finished eating, and he reached out for a tissue to wipe his mouth elegantly. Seeing that Brandon was about to get up and go upstairs, Winnie quickly said, “Brandon, I will have a prenatal examination tomorrow. Do you have time to go with me?”
Brandon was a little impatient. “Let Reece go with you.”
Since the dangerous incident happened last night, Reece was the bodyguard that Brandon specially hired for Savanna.
After hearing Brandon’s words, Winnie suddenly felt dejected. Her voice was choked with sobs.
“If Reece goes with me, those people will make up stories about us. After all, everyone thinks I am your true love.”
Winnie said the word ‘true love’ with a straight face.
“They will think that I’ve cheated on you. I don’t really care. I’m mainly afraid of you being mistaken.”
There was an unspeakable resentment in her eyes when Winnie said these words. Winnie was blaming him and Savanna. If it weren’t for Savanna, she wouldn’t have fallen out of her wheelchair and almost had a miscarriage. Or she wouldn’t have had an accident.
Brandon felt guilty when he heard this, and his cold eyes gradually turned warm.
“Well, I will go with you tomorrow.”
Hearing that Brandon agreed to go to the hospital with her for a prenatal examination, Winnie was
Brandon didn’t answer and went straight upstairs.
Brandon pushed open the bedroom door and saw the untouched food on the tray. He glanced at the soft figure. Savanna was sitting next to the bay window and reading a book. He pulled off the tie on his neck and took off his coat to hang it on the hanger. Brandon unbuttoned his shirt and cufflinks while walking to her. He asked gently, “Don’t you like the food?”
Savanna sat there without moving as if he was invisible.
“Not feeling well?”
Brandon rolled up his sleeves, revealing his white elbow bone. He reached out to take Savanna’s temperature. Before he touched Savanna, she had already turned away.
A cool air slid past Brandon’s fingertips.
He restrained his anger in his heart, and a rare gentleness appeared on his face. “Don’t let my son
starve.”
Brandon brought the food over, picked up a piece of broccoli with his fork, and brought it to Savanna.
Savanna lowered her head and flipped over the book “Impromptu Speech” with her slender hand.
Savanna didn’t answer him. Brandon tried his best to control his temper. He asked Mary to take the food away and heat it up for Savanna when she was hungry.
Mary came up to take the food and was about to go downstairs, but she was stopped by Savanna. Savanna said, “Mary, throw food away!”
Mary looked at Brandon and Savanna. Finally, she responded and hurried downstairs.
“I know you are unhappy, but I have no choice. Savanna, don’t make a fuss.”
Brandon said weakly, and his words even showed a hint of begging.
“I’ll say it again. I’m not throwing a tantrum. I’m just not hungry, so I don’t want to eat.”
Savanna took her clothes into the bathroom to take a shower.
Brandon reluctantly walked to the balcony to smoke.
Savanna came out after taking a bath. The fragrance of the bath spread over the whole room immediately. The door was knocked, and she frowned to open it.
It was Lizeth Conner, the maid who took care of Winnje.
Seeing Savanna, Lizeth anxiously glanced at her back. She seemed to be looking for Brandon.
“Ms. Thompson, is Mr. Cassel here?”
Lizeth asked anxiously.
Savanna pointed to the balcony connected to the master bedroom and said, “He is there.”
Lizeth did not care much and directly bypassed Savanna. She walked into the master bedroom. Seeing that Brandon was smoking on the balcony, Lizeth quickly walked over and reached out to open the door of the balcony. “Mr. Cassel, Ms. Landis is bleeding. It’s a little serious. Please go and take a look!”
Hearing Lizeth’s words, Brandon quickly put out that cigarette on his fingertips and followed Lizeth out.
Brandon had just walked out when he heard the sound of the door closing behind him. He was startled and still quickened his steps to go to Winnie’s room.
After a while, she heard a whistle coming from downstairs. Later, there were car lights passing through the glass window.
After another moment, Mary came up and grumbled indignantly.
“Ms. Thompson, Mr. Cassel allows Winnie to live here, but he doesn’t allow you to leave. It’s really too overbearing.”
Seeing that Savanna pursed her lips and did not speak, Mary added.
“I think that Winnie does it on purpose. She keeps trying to seduce Mr. Cassel. Do you think she is pregnant with the child of Mr. Cassel?”
Even Mary, who was illiterate, felt that it was a complicated relationship.
She was worried about Savanna.
“Mary.” Savanna was stunned, and her eyes were cold.

“Winnie lost her legs. Now that she is pregnant, Brandon has the responsibility to take care of her.”
Mary cried out.
“Ms. Thompson, you are just too kind to be bullied by her. She moves in because she wants to be a home-wrecker. She caused trouble when she just came in. Is she bleeding? I think it’s just a play. At dinner, she wanted Mr. Cassel to go to the hospital with her for the prenatal examination tomorrow. Mr. Cassel refused, but she kept pestering him. She said that she was the true love of Mr. Cassel and
others would think that she had cheated on Mr. Cassel if the bodyguard went with her. It’s ridiculous.”
Mary felt that she had broadened her horizons. In order to get everything, young people would be so
