Chapter 296

While Savanna was hesitating, Brandon came over. Not knowing if it was because she was wearing a
mask, he did not even look at her.

Savanna watched Brandon walk past her, her hands on both sides of her body clenched into fists due
to nervousness.. She was about to cheer in her heart, thinking that she had escaped a disaster. Yet
she slipped and screamed instinctively. She was about to fall forward.

A big hand reached over and held her slender waist. She also fell into Brandon’s arms.

Savanna looked up and met Brandon’s dark eyes, which were as deep as ink. Savanna blinked.

She immediately stood up straight and bowed to the man to thank him. “Thank you, sir.”

With that, Savanna turned and immediately slipped away.

Brandon stood where he was and stared blankly in the direction where the waitress had disappeared.
His gaze fell on her finger. The softness that his fingertip had just touched was so familiar. More
importantly, the waitress seemed to have a familiar scent.

He took a breath and shook his head, thinking that he must have missed Savanna too much recently.

It was just a waitress who used the same perfume as Savanna. He almost took her for Savanna..

Brandon stepped into the room.

Ben and Bob came over and shouted at the same time, “Brandon.”

Brandon looked at Ben, then looked at Bob and frowned. “What’s the matter?”



Bob said, “It’s nothing important. We haven’t drunk together for a long time. You don’t like places like
clubs, so we changed the place into this restaurant.”

As Bob spoke, the waitress began serving the dishes.

Brandon sat down, feeling frustrated. He picked up the glass on the table and took a sip.

Ben knew that Brandon was in a bad mood, so he didn’t ask anything. Seeing that the waitress who
served the dishes was not the one just now, Ben asked, “I don’t think you were the one responsible for
our table just now.”

The waitress explained with a smile, “Sophia has a stomachache. So, I took over this table.”

A waitress asking another waitress to help was a common thing in the hotel. Ben didn’t care much after
hearing that.

After the waitress served the dishes, she said, “Gentlemen, please enjoy it.” The waitress was about to
leave when she was stopped by Brandon. “Who is Sophia?”

Seeing Brandon’s cold face, the waitress was so nervous that she couldn’t speak properly.

“She is … a new waitress here. She’s older than us and treats us very well.”

Ben knew that Brandon was thinking too much and quickly advised, “Brandon, don’t be too sensitive.
It’s just a waitress.”

Brandon ignored Ben and continued to ask, “What was her name?”

Brandon just couldn’t help overthinking.

Brandon’s strong aura had always been hard to ignore, plus his face looked gloomy. The waitress was
stunned. She shook her legs and replied, “She … is called Sophia Swan.”



“Call her over here.”

When Bob saw Brandon’s cold expression, he knew that Brandon would not give up until he checked
Sophia.

Seeing that the waitress was not moving, Ben shouted, “Call your manager over.”

Ben felt offended that the waitress did not listen to them.

“Alright.”

The waitress went out.

Brandon pushed the chair aside, got up, and strode out.

The chair made a crisp noise because of his strength.

Ben and Bob looked at each other, shaking their heads.

They were all sighing at Brandon’s stubbornness.

Brandon caught up with the waitress in a few steps and grabbed her arm. The waitress turned around.
Seeing it was Brandon, she was at a loss. When she was about to say something, she saw Brandon
glancing around with sharp eyes as if he was afraid of missing someone.

“Where is she?”

“Who?” the waitress asked dumbly.

“Sophia is in … the bathroom. She went to the bathroom. Her stomach hurts.”

Brandon shook off her hand and walked toward the bathroom.



Brandon did not dare to barge into the lady’s room, so he could only stand at the door and wait. When
Savanna asked Tina to take over her shift, she did not go to the bathroom. Instead, she hid in the dark.
Seeing Tina coming out of room 2, she patted her chest with relief. Unexpectedly, she immediately saw
Brandon coming out of the private room and grabbing Tina’s hand.

When Brandon walked to the bathroom, Savanna turned and ran straight to the dressing room.

On the way, she bumped into Rosa, who was flustered and asked, “Sophia, what’s wrong?”

Savanna took out a mask similar to the one on her face and put it on Rosa’s face.

Rosa was about to reach out to take it off, but Savanna held her hand. She leaned over to Rosa’s ear
and whispered, “I’m in a bit of trouble. You have to help me, Rosa. I will thank you afterward. From this
moment on, you are Sophia. Do not tell anyone where I went.”

Savanna originally wanted to take off the necklace on her neck, but she was afraid that Brandon would
recognize that the necklace was hers. She thought about it and finally took off the ear studs from her
ear. These ear studs were given to her by her father on her 18th birthday. She had only worn them on
her 18th day. When she left the Rose Villas this time, she only brought along some accessories that
her parents bought for her. She did not expect that it would be useful now.

Savanna stuffed the ear studs into Rosa’s hand and returned to the dressing room.

Tina stumbled over and grabbed Rosa. “Sophia, you put me in danger. That man is so cold. He is too
scary.”

Tina patted her chest, gasping for breath as if she could not breathe.

“Which man?”



Rosa was confused.

Tina said, “I don’t know who he is either. Anyway, he is looking for you.”

“Come with me, Sophia.”

Tina pulled Rosa by the hand and ran upstairs.

Rosa stood in room 2. Ben and Bob sat in their original positions. Neither of them moved. Their gazes
swept over Rosa more than once, but the woman was wearing a mask. They did not dare to let her
take off the mask. What if it was really Savanna?

Ben wanted to flirt with her. If the woman in front of him was Savanna… Ben didn’t dare to imagine.

But looked at Rosa carefully and found that she didn’t resemble Savanna at all.

Brandon returned, his face gloomy. Seeing the woman standing in the private room, he couldn’t help
but take a few more glances while the woman was also sizing him up.

“Brandon, you’re finally back. This is Sophia.”

Bob said that to Brandon.

Brandon’s eyebrows twitched. The veins on his forehead bulged. He walked over to Rosa. Rosa did not
seem to dare to bear Brandon’s burning gaze. Frightened by Brandon’s vicious aura, she took a step
back.

When he was a step away from Rosa, Brandon stopped. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he asked in a
hoarse voice, “You are Sophia?”

“Yes, I am Sophia.”



This voice did not seem like Savanna.

Savanna’s voice was soft and sweet, and when she spoke, her tone was always rising at the end,
which was pretty unique.

Hearing Rosa’s words, Brandon had a hint of disappointment flash across his eyes.

But he still did not give up. He said, “Why are you wearing a mask?”

Thinking of Savanna’s words, Rosa found a random reason. “My face was burned by fire. It is very
ugly. I have no money for plastic surgery. So, I could only wear a mask.”
