Chapter 177

Savanna was stunned. She looked at Brandon but he avoided her gaze.

Mandel saw Savanna‘s gloomy expression, so he quickly asked while holding her hand, “Savanna, you
don‘t want to take me as your student?”

“Yes...”

How could she bear to reject her son‘s request?

Brandon heard this and curled his lips into a smile.

“Great, I‘ll go up and help you carry your luggage.” Mandel broke free of Savanna‘s hand and turned to
run back into the hotel.

“You taught him to do so?” Savanna asked.

“No.” Brandon shook his head. “The person Mande likes the most is Kadyn. He almost never listens to
me. He used all the excuses to get close to you, Savanna. Don‘t you think he likes you very much?”

Brandon then told Savanna about Mandel crying at a Spanish contest. Brandon smiled and said, “At
that time, he couldn‘t utter a single word. His face was flushed red, and he was extremely anxious. He
might think that it‘s embossing to have lost to a girl two years younger. He has heard that you are good
at Spanish, so he wants you to be his teacher.”

Brandon sounded logical. Savanna could not find anything wrong.

Mandel‘s embarrassed look when he lost to a little girl appeared in front of her eyes.

Savanna did not smile. She only felt heartache.



During the five years of separating from Mandel, she endured much grief and unbearable pain. This
was Savanna‘s deepest pain in her life.

In the blink of an eye, Mandel came down with a small suitcase. Savanna took it and rubbed his
temple. She turned around and put the small suitcase in the trunk. Then, they sat in the back seats of
the car. Brandon started the car and drove away from the hotel. Brandon drove while looking back at
his wife and son chatting from time to time. His heart was full of satisfaction.

This was the happiness he had been looking forward to for a long time.

Mandel was smart and learned very carefully. Savanna‘s teaching was smooth. Savanna was teaching
Mandel spoken Spanish. She could vaguely hear footsteps.

Mandel finished teaching a Spanish sentence and raised her head when Mandel was imitating her
tone. Savanna looked up and saw Brandon, who was lowering his head to light a cigarette. He was
wearing a silk nightgown and the belt around his waist was loose. His collar was unbuttoned. He

looked lazy, sexy, and yet wild.

“Savanna, what are you looking at?”

Mandel sensed that Savanna was distracted. He followed her gaze and saw his sexy father at the

door. Mandel raised his arm to cover Savanna‘s eyes and whispered in her ear, “Savanna, my father

is very handsome. But I will be even more handsome than my father. Don‘t look anymore. Just look at
me.”

Mandel shouted at the door, “Dad, don‘t disturb my learning. I‘ll light a cigar for you later.”

Mandel was pleasing Brandon.



Savanna moved the small hand from her eyes. She somehow looked at Brandon again. Brandon was
also looking at her at this time. As the smoke curled up, Savanna looked at his deep eyes, her heart

skipping a beat.

“Okay, I‘ll go downstairs now. When dinner is ready, you guys can come down.”

After Brandon said so, he looked at Savanna with deep eyes before leaving.

After a lesson, Mandel said that he was hungry and pulled Savanna to the dining room.

The dining room was silent.

Brandon sat at the dining table in front of him. He was looking at his phone. The diamond ring on his
ring finger was bright and dazzling. Savanna naturally saw it.

The diamond was gremlin and flamboyant.

It was like the sea reflecting the bright red starry sky.

It was bought a month before she married Brandon. Giselle took her to the jewelry store and she felt
that the ring was beautiful and eye–catching. It was very similar to Brandon‘s bright and beautiful face.
She decided to buy it without hesitation.

In the two years of their marriage, Brandon had never worn it. When Savanna had to save the
Thompson Group, she sold it to the jewelry store.

Savanna did not expect that Brandon would wear the wedding ring after five years.

“Savanna,” someone called to her excitedly.

Savanna turned around and met a middle–aged woman‘s shocked eyes.



“Debbie,” Savanna said.

With her hand trembling, the plate in Debbie‘s hand almost fell to the ground. She put the plate on the
table, quickly walked to Savanna, and grabbed Savanna‘s hand. “Savanna, you‘re indeed alive.”

Tears welled up in Debbie‘s eyes. Savanna wiped the tears from the corners of Debbie’s eyes with her
fingertips and smiled, “I‘m lucky, Debbie. Looks like my life is still meaningful.”

Debbie, ‘Youve survived a disaster. You must have good fortune.”

Mandel picked up a piece of pasta and stuffed it into his mouth when he saw their excited expressions.
Do you know each other?”

Debbie opened her mouth. Receiving Savanna‘s signal, she closed her mouth.

“I used to teach Kadyn Spanish before at the Cassel‘s home, so I have known Debbie since then.”
Savanna made up a story.

Nandel looked at them and lowered his head to eat the pasta. After a while, he raised his head again
and asked confusedly. “But Kadyn doesn‘t stay in the old house very often.”

Savanna and Debbie looked at each other. Savanna almost broke out cold sweat on her back. She
quickly made a lie. “I‘m also the teacher of Debbie‘s son.”

Debbie said, “Yes, Ms. Thompson is quite good. My son‘s Spanish improved a lot, ranking fourth place
at the end of last semester. He used to the last.”

Mandel‘s mouth opened wide as if he did not believe it. “Ms. Thompson, come to eat the pasta.”

Brandon brought the pasta to Savanna and said, “There‘s just a little salt in it.”



Brandon still remembered Savanna‘s taste. She only put a little salt in everything she ate.

Mandel wanted to go to the bathroom and disappeared like a wisp of smoke. Debbie said to Savanna,
“Look at how much Brandon loves you.”

Love her? Savanna wanted to laugh. Speechless, she sat down and ate the pasta.

Brandon gave Debbie an annoying look, so Debbie left.

“Brandon, don‘t intentionally let others misunderstand.”

Brandon looked at her angry appearance and felt sweet in his heart. “Debbie is right. I do love you very
much, more than myself.”

Savanna‘s throat tightened. She choked and coughed continuously.

Brandon quickly went out to fetch a glass of water and placed it in front of Savanna. He gently patted
Savanna‘s back with his big hand.

Savanna coughed until her face was red. She finally stopped coughing. As she was about to curse
Brandon, Mandel returned.

Looking at them getting so close, he frowned and stared at the hand on Savanna‘s back with an
unfriendly gaze. “Dad, what are you doing?”

Mandel fiercely pulled down Brandon‘s hand on Savanna‘s back.

“You...”

Brandon still had anger in his eyes. When he glanced at Savanna, he stretched out his hand to tidy his
hair. He was deeply afraid that Savanna would be angry. He obediently got up and gave way to his wife
and son



Brandon offered to take Mandel upstairs to take a bath. Mandel wanted Savanna to help him wash.
Brandon insisted otherwise. He dragged Mandel upstairs. Savanna was frightened. Mandel‘s crying
grabbed her heart and upset her.

She wanted to go up and stop Brandon. Debbie was afraid that Savanna would misunderstand. She
said, “Savanna, Mandel is Brandon‘s only son and the eldest grandson of the Cassel family. Brandon
loves Mandel very much. He might just express his love in the wrong way.”

Savanna thought that Mandel was Brandon‘s biological son, so Brandon shouldn‘t do anything to him.
Only then did she completely relieve herself.

“Savanna, Brandon has lived miserably during these five years. His hair has turned gray, and he’s
suffered from mild depression.”
