Chapter 261
Brandon wanted to agree, but he was afraid that he would fail and let Savanna down.
His silence made Savanna angry. Savanna turned her head and looked out the window quietly.
ignoring Brandon.
Time passed by minute and second.
Jim asked someone to cook another four dishes and a soup, all of which were the dishes that Savanna liked.
Jim brought the food in and immediately retreated.
Brandon put the food on the plate and handed it to Savanna. Savanna did not accept it. She adopted a curled-up position and buried her head on her knees. No matter how Brandon coaxed her, Savanna kept ignoring him.
Brandon placed the food in front of Savanna, his mind surging with anger, afraid that his relationship with Savanna would be even more rigid. So he did not dare to vent his anger.
Brandon lit a cigarette and puffed out the smoke, lost in his thoughts.
The room was so quiet that they could hear each otherâs heartbeats.
After smoking, his voice became even hoarser as he said, âSavanna, between us, there is always one person who has to give in. It is either you or me. I promise you that I will do my best to bring Mandel over for treatment. Is that okay?â
Savanna raised her head. There was no surprise in her eyes when she looked at Brandon coldly.
Perhaps, she felt that she no longer dared to believe Brandon.
After all, in the past few days, when they had become very intimate, Brandon often said affectionate words to her. He said that he only loved her for the rest of his life.
In the blink of an eye, his oaths were all over now.
Savanna had already deeply experienced his barbarity and ruthlessness.
âAlright.â
After a long time, Savanna finally answered.
Brandon habitually reached out his hand to rub her hair, but Savanna instinctively moved aside.
Brandonâs hand froze in the air, Feeling the cold air around his fingertips. Brandon smiled sadly. And there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes.
He said in an unemotional voice, âIf you want me to bring Mandel here, eat.â
Then, Brandon went to the balcony to make a call.
Through the glass door, Savanna fixed her eyes on his tall and straight body. Brandon lowered his head. His phone pressed against his ear when he made a phone call. Meanwhile, he held a cigarette and put it to his lips, smoking from time to time, frowningâ¦
Shortly after, Brandon ended the call and came into the room.
He met Savannaâs probing eyes. Brandon was about to say something when Savanna said, âDid you just call Rex?â
âYes.â
Brandon responded gently and walked toward Savanna.
He gently touched her face. This time, she did not resist but looked straight at him. âWouldnât it be too much work to bring Mandel over for treatment?â
Seeing that Savanna was willing to talk to him, Brandon felt indescribably happy.
He took a deep breath and said, âNot really. Itâs just that Mandel had just had an operation⦠Besides, Rex is his attending physician and is familiar with his illness.â
Savanna felt sorry for Mandel. She didnât want Mandel to suffer. She wanted to refuse, but then she thought about it. Didnât Brandon want her to refuse this matter?
Savanna closed her eyes. A thought flashed through her mind. She thought of a way and said, âWhy donât we ask Rex to come along with Mandel?â
In order to make Brandon agree with her, Savanna actually acted like a spoiled child. She looked so pitiful that Brandon couldnât refuse her. âWhy donât you talk to Rex about this matter?â
Savanna picked up Brandonâs hand and gently stroked his palm again and again. Brandon felt his lust burst as his Adamâs apple rolled.
He hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he could not resist Savannaâs temptation. He softly replied, âOkâ
âGreat!â
Savanna grinned, her eyes flashing. Her smile was so sweet and her eyes were so clear that Brandon looked at her in a daze.
Savanna was in a good mood and had a good appetite. When she was enjoying the meal, she hooked the corner of Brandonâs clothes with her pinky finger. She looked up at Brandon and smiled. âLetâs enjoy it together.â
âOkay.â Brandon said.
Brandon actually did not want to eat the food. But seeing that Savanna was enjoying the food, he got a plate and began to eat with her.
In the early morning Brandon had already left when Savanna woke up.
There was a note at the head of the bed. âI will go back to handle the relevant procedures and discuss with Rex about bringing Mandel over. Just wait for me.â
For some reason, Savanna was actually unable to feel happy.
She screwed up the note and threw it into the trash.
Jim brought breakfast for her. Savanna beamed with joy and was extremely enthusiastic about Jim.
She even hummed pop music as if she had changed into a different person. Jim felt that it was inconceivable.
When Brandon returned to Philadelphia, Lorena called him over.
âI heard that you sent Savanna away. Where has she been sent to?â
Lorena asked in a questioning tone.
Brandon replied with a smile. âGrandma, donât worry about where I sent her to. In short, I will give Joanna a wedding according to your request and make her satisfied.â
Lorena didnât calin down after she lieard Brandonâs words. âIf the Gilbert family knew this matter. they would not sit idle. It is not good for Savanna. Why donât you break up with her?â
The smile gradually disappeared from Brandonâs face, and hostility gradually leaked from his eyes.
âGrandina, the Gilbert family wouldnât sit idle. Coincidentally, I donât intend to let them go.â
Lorena was shocked. âWhat do you mean?â
âYou will know later.â
Brandon left, caring little about whether Lorena was angry or not.
Lorena was so angry that she almost choked.
In the afternoon, Lorena called Brandon over again.
Lorena lay on the bed. Her hair was scattered as if she had aged ten years in a few hours.
She stared at Brandon and asked, âWas it you who dealt with Addyson?â
Brandon lowered his eyes, remaining silent.
Lorena widened her eyes. âShelton, what did you want to do? You even dared to send Addyson to a madhouse. How are you going to face Joanna in the future? Addyson is her mother.â
Brandon pursed his lips with no expression on his face. âDidnât Jimmy say that Addyson was sick?
Shouldnât a lunatic live in a madhouse?â
Lorena became furious. âA normal person would go insane if they lived in such a place. Shelton, ask someone to release her at once.â
Brandon looked up at Lorena with a dark and terrifying gaze. âI donât have that ability. If you have it, grandma, please do as you please, if you donât mind her harming me.â
Brandon left smartly.
Lorena raged, her face collapsing.
She was too old to control Brandon.
Lorena asked a servant to make a call. However, no one answered the call. The servant reported to Lorena truthfully.
Lorena was so angry that her face turned black. She called in person, but her call was not answered.
Usually, the person she called fawned over her like a lackey. But now, he dared to refuse to answer her call.
Obviously, the person was being controlled.
Brandon wanted to seize power from her.
