Chapter 212

Chloe’s eyes lit up when she saw Brandon, but they darkened when she saw Savanna.

“Shelton, you are back.”

The servant brought two sets of cutleries for Brandon and Savanna. Chloe was seated on the left side
of Lorena. Brandon walked to the right side of Lorena and sat down. As for Savanna, she could only sit
beside Chloe.

Lorena smiled and said to Brandon, “Shelton, Chloe’s finger is injured. Help me check it. She was
injured in order to make me a nourishing soup.

Brandon’s voice was cold and indifferent, without a trace of emotion. He asked Chloe, “Is it serious? Do
you need to go to the hospital?”

Chloe pinched her index finger wrapped with a band-aid. She shook her head and said with a smile,
“It’s okay, Shelton. I’m not that delicate. Don’t worry about me.”

Brandon was expressionless. “You should have let the servants cook.”

With Shelton’s concern, Chloe felt sweet in her heart as if she had tasted honey. “They don’t know how
to make this soup. I learned it from a nutritionist.”

Sure enough, Chloe was smart and good at pleasing Lorena.

When Lorena heard this, she smiled happily. “Chloe, you are so good. I can’t help liking you.”

During the meal, Savanna did not say a word.

With Lorena here, the atmosphere was always heavy.



Besides, Savanna did not know what to say. She was afraid that she would say something wrong and
make Lorena

unhappy.

After dinner, Lorena went back to her room.

Brandon went to the study to deal with the company’s emails. Savanna was about to go back to her
room, but she was stopped by Chloe.

The servant served some snacks. On the terrace, Savanna chatted with Chloe.

Chloe’s attitude toward Savanna was even warmer than the last time they met.

She said, “I heard that you are pregnant. Is this Shelton’s child?”

Chloe asked casually, but her question was actually doubt about Savanna’s pregnancy.

During the meal just now, Chloe deliberately made Lorena happy. Savanna could see Chloe’s feelings
for Brandon,

“11 Shelton says so, then so be it,” Savanna gave a flawless answer.

“Congratulations.” Even if Chloe said so, she was jealous in her heart. “Grandma told me that just now.
She asked me not to mind it and said that the child in your belly is a child of the Young family and that
you must give birth to it. I have prepared to be a stepmother. Savanna. I will regard him as my own
child and treat him like how I treat Mandel. You can rest assured.”

Savanna hadn’t even given birth to her child, but Chloe planned to be a stepmother.

Brandon was fated to be attractive in this life, and so many women were willing to be his wife.



Savanna was disgusted by Chloe’s words and no longer wanted to chat with Chloe.

Savanna stood up from the chair. Her smile was obviously so charming, but people could also see the
coldness in it.

“I will take care of my child. Ms. Gilbert, you don’t have to worry about it.”

“Savanna, Shelton doesn’t love you, and you don’t love him. There will be no result between you two.”

Savanna turned and left.

Chloe’s soft voice came from behind.

But Savanna turned a deaf ear to it.

Seth stood in the corner and heard what Chloe said to Savanna.

He then reported it to Brandon. Brandon frowned and asked, “What did Savanna say?”

“Ms. Thompson said that she would raise her own child and wouldn’t bother Ms. Gilbert,” Seth told the
truth.

When Brandon went to Savanna’s room, Savanna was on the phone. Her eyes were full of brilliance,
and her cheeks blushed a little.

Seeing Brandon come in, Savanna said to the person at the other end of the line, “Alright, let’s talk
when I come back.”

“When are you coming back?”

Brandon leaned closer and heard a man’s voice on the phone. It sounded familiar.



Brandon frowned.

“I’m not sure. I’ll call you if I come back” Without waiting for a reply, Savanna hung up the phone.

Brandon asked, “Cain?”

Savanna ignored him and wiped her face with skincare products. Brandon crossed his hands and bit
his lower lip. He stood in place, deep in thought.

“I want to go back to New York tomorrow.”

Savanna said with a determined tone, and it seemed that she had long made a decision.

“Is it because of Cain?”

Brandon tried to suppress the anger in his heart. For some reason, whenever he thought of Cain, he
would feel inexplicably uncomfortable and angry.

Savanna did not look at him but focused on applying skin lotion on her face. After that, her face turned
fair and delicate

She then slowly turned her head and looked at Brandon, who had been staring at her intently, “It seems
to have nothing to do with you.”

Her indifferent attitude and distant tone irritated Brandon.

.

“Savanna, we have an agreement. My grandmother knows that you are pregnant. If you leave again,
not only will she be suspicious, but everyone in Young’s house will be suspicious.”



“Whether I am pregnant or not, 1 lunow very well. This lie was made by you. Then, you have to deal
with the result.”

“What do you mean?”

Brandon’s voice was cold and dangerous.

“Don’t you want to see Mandel anymore?”

“Of course,” Savanna stared at Brandon and said.

She didn’t want to lie to him and herself.

She wanted to see Mandel so much that she was about to go crazy.

“I was thinking that even if I did as you asked, you might still not let me see him.”

These words hit Brandon’s Achilles heel.

Savanna’s guess was correct.

Brandon indeed thought of this.

Savanna understood Brandon too well. His every expression and action had once been replayed in her
mind thousands of times.

She used to love him and everything about him crazily.

Her irrational love finally led to bitter consequences. She was just like a moth flying to the fire,
regardless of the consequences.

Brandon’s silence thoroughly disappointed Savanna.



She smiled and said, “Sometimes, I think that if I didn’t love you or insist on giving birth to Mandel back
then, perhaps today, my life would be different.”

Brandon’s heart ached. He added, “What you want to say is that if you didn’t marry me, you should
have long been with Cain and had his child, right?”

Savanna looked at him and said in a faint voice, “Perhaps…”

Her words were like a sharp knife that hurt Brandon’s ears.

Suddenly, Brandon’s eyes reddened.

He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and said, “Savanna, what you said will not be true at
all. Now, you are Mandel’s mother and my wife. You have the responsibility and obligation to take care
of us. You can’t think of another man.”

She couldn’t think of another man?

*Then, what about you?” Savanna stared at Brandon. Her gaze was like a torch, as if she wanted to
burn him to ashes.

“When you accused me, why don’t you think about yourself? Five years ago, you had Winnie and
Tracy. Now, you have Chloe Do you know what Chloe just told me?”

savanna could no longer control herself and roared, “She asked me to give birth to the child! She said
that she would raise and take care of lim as her own child! Brandon, I just want to ask you. What right
does she have to take care of my child?”
