Chapter 216

Savanna seemed not satisfied with Brandon’s self-restraint. She rubbed his short hair, raised her head,
and whispered in his ear, “Be yourself.”

The scent of their perfumes, one sweet and the other fresh, mixed together. And their quick breaths
could be heard clearly. So

After they were separated for too long, Brandon’s desire for Savanna went wild, and could finally be
released.

He bit her lips and kissed her fiercely.

A beautiful night after a long time of separation.

Brandon slowed down, afraid that Savanna would not be able to withstand it.

For the entire night, Savanna hugged Brandon.

Unwilling to let go.

The next day, the first ray of sunlight in the morning came in through the window and fell on Savanna’s
fair and tender face, making her look even radiant.

It also fell on Brandon’s outlined facial features and deep eyes. He was staring at Savanna, who was
still sleeping.

The chirp of birds came from outside from time to time. Savanna opened her eyes and saw Brandon’s
face.

His straightforward gaze caused her face to turn red suddenly.



“You…”

“Morning, darling.” Brandon hooked onto a strand of hair at the corner of Savanna’s mouth with his long
fingers and gently tucked it behind her ear.

“Morning.” Savanna did not dare meet his overly enthusiastic gaze. She

grabbed the quilt to wrap around her waist and jumped out of bed into the

bathroom.

After taking a shower, Savanna changed into her clothes and walked out of the bathroom.

Brandon had gotten up and was sitting on the bed to get dressed. Savanna no longer looked at him
and turned to walk out of the living room.

When Brandon went downstairs, Savanna had made breakfast.

Brandon looked at the breakfast on the table. There was a fried egg, a glass of hot milk, two
sandwiches, and a fruit salad.

Mango and grapes were his favorite.

“In the future, whatever you want to eat, I will cook for you. You don’t have to do it.”

Brandon said, and the smile on his face was as bright as the sun.

Savanna turned her head away and drank the milk in her glass.



After she finished drinking the milk, she took out an agreement from her bag and placed it in front of
Brandon.

Brandon looked at Savanna suspiciously and then read the agreement. It read, “To cure Mandel, after
discussion, Savanna Thompson and Brandon Cassel reached an agreement as follows. First, the two
parties are willing to have a child in order to save Mandel. Second, Savanna Thompson should have
custody of the child. Brandon Cassel can’t interfere in it. Third, the two parties’ cohabitation will end on
Savanna’s pregnancy.”

“What do you mean?” Brandon frowned and said in a low voice, “Savanna, the child hasn’t even been
born yet. But you want to draw a line with me?”

Brandon was unable to accept this agreement.

If last night he was in heaven, then he was now in hell.

Savanna seemed to have thought of everything and even prepared the answer to Brandon’s question.
She blurted out, “Brandon, we all know what happened last night was all for Mandel. We can’t return to
the past anymore.”

Brandon was greatly shocked by Savanna’s words.

He almost failed to stand stable. He felt cold and trembled as if he was soaked in an icehouse. He
smiled bitterly. “Savanna, you were so passionate last night, but you were just acting, right? So, you
can do that to a man you don’t like.”

Savanna didn’t want to explain more. Brandon had once completely disappointed her, and how could
she pretend to care about nothing?



“It’s up to you whether you want to sign this agreement or not. I can go back to Philadelphia with you,
but after I get pregnant, I will move out of the Young’s house.”

Savanna told herself that she couldn’t be soft-hearted.

She did not want to experience the pain of losing Mandel again.

She understood Brandon’s personality too well. Because of that, she had to be wary of him.

Brandon gritted his teeth. “If you want me to sign, I’ll sign it for you.”

To make Savanna at ease, Brandon took a pen and wrote down his name in the agreement

“Thank you.” Savanna’s tone was polite and distant. She took the agreement and wrote down her
name. “There are two copies. This is for you.”

As she spoke, Savanna pulled out a copy and handed it to Brandon. Brandon did not take it but kept
looking at her. Savanna then placed the agreement on the table.

After that, she went to the Thompson Group and instructed something to Justin and Neil. After
returning to Rose Villas, she began to pack her luggage.

Savanna wanted to bring Lizeth to Philadelphia, and Brandon fulfilled her wish.

The night that Savanna moved into Young’s house, Lorena had the servants make a table of delicacies
to welcome Savanna.

Lorena beamed with joy and instructed the chef to cook some nutritious dishes. She also hired a
nutritionist for Savanna.

Since Lorena was treating, Chloe was naturally invited. The smile on Chloe’s face was as usual. She
had always maintained the dignity of a noble lady and treated others politely. Her hospitability to



Savanna was mixed with a bit of distance.

After dinner, Savanna greeted Lorena and went back to her room. Just as she walked out of the hall, it
was raining heavily. Lizeth went to get an umbrella. Savanna stood under the eaves and looked at the
rain falling from the eaves thoughtfully.

“Ms. Thompson.”

It was a soft and husky woman’s voice.

Savanna turned around and met Chloe’s smiling face.

Chloe walked toward Savanna.

“What’s the matter?” Savanna raised an eyebrow.

“Ms. Thompson, I heard that you have met Mandel.”

Savanna didn’t say anything. She just stared at Chloe and waited for the next part.

Chloe sighed with pity. “Mandel is such a smart child. I didn’t expect him to

suffer from such a serious illness. Shelton said that the child in your belly cah save Mandel’s life with
the umbilical cord blood. Then you should take good care of it.”

“What do you want to say?”

Savanna had disliked Chloe since the first time she met Chloe.

Savanna always felt that regardless of Chloe’s gentle appearance, Chloe was actually good at
scheming.



Chloe sensed the hostility in Savanna’s eyes and smiled. “Ms. Thompson, you don’t have to guard
against me like a thief. I apologize for what I said last time. Shelton and I are only like brother and
sister. I only regard him as my brother. Grandma likes me, so I often come to visit her. Don’t think too
much about it.”

“Ms. Gilbert, you are too polite. I have never thought too much about it. I am not interested in the
relationship between you and Shelton. However, I can be sure that my child will only be raised by
myself. I don’t like to bother others, and I don’t trust anyone.”

Savanna’s words made Chloe embarrassed.

“Ms. Thompson, the rain is heavy.” Chloe looked in the direction where Lizeth disappeared. After a long
time, Lizeth didn’t come back.

Chloe said, “You can use my umbrella. After all, you are pregnant. If something happens to the
treasure of the Young family, Shelton will blame me. I can’t afford it.”

Savanna sneered. “The child in my belly is Shelton’s. As for why I am pregnant, Ms. Gilbert, you must
have known about it. With your relationship with the Young family, even if the child in my belly is gone,
no one in the Young family will blame you. Ms. Gilbert, don’t have to worry about it.”

Savanna was not sure if Chloe knew that Brandon had lied to Loren about her

pregnancy.

Every time Chloe met Savanna, she would deliberately approach Savanna. Moreover, Chloe’s words,
on the surface, sounded very respectful. In fact, if one carefully thought about it, he could easily
understand the hidden meaning

Chloe’s love for Shelton was so obvious.



And how could she hope that Savanna and Shelton would be happy?

Chloe’s intention was certainly not to bless Savanna.

Chloe felt wronged and wanted to say more, but when she saw Lorena not far away, she gave up.

Then, Lorena’s voice sounded. “Savanna, Chloe was just sincerely blessing you, but you didn’t like her.
Shelton said that you are a rare good girl, but I think you are like a wild rose full of thorns.”
