Chapter 264

Jimmy left the hospital. Out of rage, Jimmy was about to find Brandon when his assistant called him.
His assistant panicked and said helplessly, “Mr. Gilbert, our building has collapsed, two people died
and thirty-two were injured. What should we do?”

Hearing that, Jimmy had his face turn pale. The veins on his forehead bulged. He didn’t know whether
he couldn’t stand this blow or if the sunlight was too strong. He felt weak and almost fell.

“Mr. Gilbert…”

The assistant was worried.

“I’ll be right…”

Before the word “back” was uttered, Jimmy fell to the ground.

After the anesthetic, Tracy woke up. Her eyes slowly circled the ward. Tracy did not see the person she
wanted to see and she bit her pale lips tightly, trembling out of excessive grief.

Two nurses walked in. Seeing Tracy, who was crying at that time, they did not show any sympathy. The
nurses just said coldly, “Ms. Gilbert, you need to pay for the medical expenses. We tried to contact your
father but we failed. So what do you do with it?”

Tracy was stunned for a moment before she understood what the nurses said.

Tracy took out her phone and called Jimmy, but he turned it off.

Tracy tried to call Jimmy a few more times, but she failed. She looked at the nurse and smiled, saying,
“Maybe it’s run out of power. My dad should call me later.”



One nurse looked fretful as she took out her phone from her pocket and pointed at the news, saying to
Tracy, “Look, your family is in trouble. I heard that you are going to go bankrupt. Your father’s creditors
are all looking for him. He found a place to hide, and now no one knows where he is. Our hospital is not
a charity organization. You have to pay the fees, otherwise, we won’t offer you any medicine.”

Tracy didn’t believe what the nurse said. Her eyelids flickered as she stroked her hair at the side of her
temples. Then, she took a deep breath, trying to force a smile. “That’s impossible. Don’t worry, my dad
will be here in a while.”

Tracy browsed through the phone page and her lips began to tremble uncontrollably. It was as if a
bucket of cold water had been poured over her head.

The Gilbert family could not avoid trouble when something bad happened related to them.

Tracy’s lips turned even paler.

The nurses snorted and left.de

Tracy called Brandon, but Brandon did not answer the phone. She had to call Lucas. Soon, he arrived.

Standing at the head of the bed and looking down at Tracy, Lucas looked at Tracy with disdain, and
asked coldly, “What can I do for you?”

Looking at Lucas’s cold eyes, Tracy realized that the Gilbert family had lost its power. She tried to raise
her head. There was a moment when she had to rely on Lucas.

She had never cared about Lucas.

“Can you pay my medical expenses?” asked Tracy.



Lucas smiled and the coldness in his eyes melted away just like the snow, but the smile only lasted for
a second.

“You know, L&S Limited has been in the red recently, and the business is not good.”

That was a tactful rejection.

Tracy bit her lips and said, “After all, we…”

Lucas sneered, lit a cigarette, and started smoking. Even when he saw Tracy covering her mouth and
coughing, he did not extinguish the cigarette.

“What do you want to say?”

Lucas stared at Tracy angrily like a wolf.

“We had sex?”

Lucas snorted, and gradually, he laughed out loud and said, “Tracy, you never cared about me. If I
hadn’t mistaken you for Chloe, I would never have touched you. If it weren’t for the baby in your belly
that could help the Davis Group take over the Gilbert Group, I wouldn’t even have bothered to go to the
studio to take you away. Now that the Gilbert Group is bankrupt, why should I help you?”

Tracy had never been insulted like that.

Tracy raised her hand and wanted to slap Lucas, but Lucas firmly held her hand and fiercely warned, “If
it wasn’t for Chloe, I would have killed you already.”

Lucas kicked the bed and left.

The bed trembled and swayed violently. Tracy had experienced a uterine curettage and she needed to
rest. But what Lucas did made Tracy’s operative wound bleed again.



Tracy looked frightened and in pain. She pressed the wall bell. The nurse came and immediately
checked her wound. When the nurse saw the large patch of blood, she was astonished and then
quickly sent Tracy into the operating room.

In the afternoon.

At dusk, the golden light sprinkled on the windowsill.

Sitting on the floating window, Savanna buried her head in her knees, listening to the sound of the door.
She did not move, just quietly closing her eyes.

A hand slowly touched her cheek, followed by a burst of cold fragrance. Savanna slightly rejected.
Feeling her rejection, Brandon pressed his chest against hers. Brandon lowered his head and kept her
tragus in her mouth. His hand that stayed on her face slowly touched the soft flesh under her ear.

Savanna wanted to ignore it, but the heart-wrenching itch made her breathe abruptly. Sensing Savanna
started to be soft, Brandon teased her even crazily. He used his long fingers around her chin, forcing
her to meet his eyes.

“Do you miss me?”

After being separated for those days, Brandon missed Savand socrazily.

Savanna did not speak and just looked at Brandon.

Brandon felt that it was unfair when he saw his confounded figure through her dark and bright eyes,

He lowered his head and forced her to kiss him.

They kissed so hard and their tongues entangled with each other. Brandon kissed even more fiercely
so that Savanna was surprised and uttered a cry.



Her voice stimulated Brandon even more, and the surging desire in his body poured out.

Such an earth-shaking love affair took place between them.

Brandon seemed to want to rub Savanna’s charming body into his body.

It was over.

Brandon lit a cigarette. His desire was released and he felt an indescribable satisfaction.

Savanna did not immediately wash herself after that.

She lay there, just facing Brandon with her back.

Looking at Savanna’s smooth, soft, and fair back, Brandon felt a faint sense of loss.

His slender fingers moved along Savanna’s back.

From time to time, he would gently stroke her.

Savanna closed her eyes and quietly listened to the sound of insects outside the window.

Brandon saw that Savanna wasn’t willing to pay attention to him, so he put out the cigarette butt and
then held her in his arms.

Feeling his desire, Savanna finally said, “Don’t do it again. I am tired.”

“If you don’t want it. Just come and talk to me.”

Brandon let Savanna rest with his arm. They held each other tightly and they looked sensual.

“What do you want me to say? Should I praise you?”



Savanna’s voice was like a gust of cold wind blowing across Brandon’s chest.

Brandon said, “Savanna…”

“The Gilbert family went bankrupt and Tracy had a miscarriage. Don’t you think that you are too
ruthless?”

Brandon thought that Savanna would be happy, but he was wrong

“I did it all for you. If not for you…” said Savanna.

“Don’t say that.”

As soon as Savanna closed her eyes, Brandon and Tracy in white and black would appear in front of
her. Tracy hugged Brandon affectionately.

The scene was like a poisonous thorn pierced her heart when she saw the picture by an anonymous
person.

Savanna still had her eyes closed. She said slowly, “Brandon, when you agreed to marry Tracy and
went to take wedding photos, the relationship between us had completely ended.”
