Chapter 204
Chapter 204
“I want to cooperate with the Young Group. And I want to reunite with Mandel even more.”
Perhaps because she was the biological mother of the eldest son of the Young family, Seth had given her the green light.
Therefore, Savanna felt there was no need to hide it from Seth.
Seth wore a strange and mysterious smile on his face,
“I’m afraid it won’t be easy. Last night, after you left, Mr. Young said nothing and kept a sullen face. He used to be calm and restrained.”
After Brandon returned to the Young family, Seth had been taking care of his daily life. Seth had never seen Shelton smile. Moreover, Shelton barely talked to women. No matter how beautiful and sexy the woman was, he regarded her as nothing
Seth even thought Shelton was gay.
Unexpectedly, Shelton had asked Seth to give Savanna an umbrella last night and even went downstairs. When Savanna fainted, Shelton held her in his arms. Seth saw Shelton’s face. Apart from Shelton’s trightening pale-white face, there was worry and even fear on it.
It turned out that Shelton was not gay, but had fallen for someone in New York.
“It doesn’t matter.”
Savanna smiled brightly as she maintained an optimistic attitude. “I am a persistent person.”
“But last night…” Seth did not continue.
While Savanna knew what he meant and immediately said, “People’s mood changes. And your thoughts are not always the same. Things are different now and then.”
Seth frowned and thought, but it’s only been a night.
It seems that Savanna is complicated.
No wonder Shelton is in a bad mood.
Without saying anything, Seth turned and went upstairs. Savanna followed him.
There were countless people in the hall on the third floor. Brandon was sitting right in the middle. There was thunderous applause from the audience. Brandon’s husky voice came out of the microphone. “Hello, everyone. I am Shelton. Thank you for coming to the feedback event of Ms. Chloe Gilbert. This event is held by the Young Group. Representing the Young Group, I wanna give my special thanks to Mr. Palmer…”
Leaning against the side door, Savanna kept her head down as she quietly listened to Brandon’s husky voice. Although she had attracted the curious eyes of the waiter backstage, she ignored it.
After Brandon finished, there was another round of applause from the audience.
Savanna looked up and saw Brandon getting up from his seat. Soon, a group of people came out from backstage on the right side. The leader was a tall and beautiful woman with long legs and a slender waist. The white cloak on her vividly portrayed her noble temperament.
It was Chloe.
She had acted in many TV dramas and had become famous because of a soap opera.
Chloe walked out surrounded by lots of people. Just standing under the spotlight, she seemed to have attracted all the gaze.
Chloe walked over to Brandon. They shook hands and hugged each other. Although it was a very normal hug, Savanna saw something different in Chloe’s eyes.
Chloe looked at Brandon with dazzling eyes.
All the cameras were aimed at Chloe. Chloe’s face immediately lit up. She was surrounded by a crowd of people.
Savanna noticed that Brandon left the crowd and walked to the corridor that was covered with red carpets.
She quietly trailed after him.
Seth appeared quietly and sighed helplessly at the figures entering the aisle one after another.
Savanna stepped onto the aisle. At the end of the red carpet, there was no trace of Brandon. She remembered clearly that he had entered from here just now. Savanna looked back and wondered it she had seen it wrong. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Bang!
The door next to her opened. A well-detined hand reached out and grabbed Savanna’s throat.
Then, a “bang” was heard.
Savanna’s soft body was pressed against the wall by a man’s strong body.
The moment she was restrained, Savanna grabbed the cup on the tray and fiercely smashed it at the man’s lower body. The man reacted quickly and grabbed her wrist, making the cup fall from her hand.
At the same time, the water in the cup spilled out and fell on the man’s pants.
Savanna raised her head. Through the faint light outside, she recognized Brandon’s dark eyes, especially the tiny red mark at the corner of his eyes. It was so eye-catching.
It was probably taken in Philadelphia. However, the red mark did not affect Brandon’s handsomeness.
The hot breath fell on Savanna’s ear and blew up her fine hair. Brandon’s eyes were very cold, and his voice was even colder. “Savanna, what exactly do you want?”
“I want to cooperate with the Young Group. I have already promised the higher-ups of the Thompson Group. If I fail to cooperate with the Young Group, I am not one of the Thompson family anymore.”
Only with such an excuse could Savanna explain why she appeared in front of him now.
Brandon’s dark eyes reflected Savanna’s beautiful face as well as her mulish expression. “Impossible,”
He said.
Then he released his grip.
Seeing that Brandon was about to leave, Savanna grabbed his sleeve. “Brandon, no matter it it is working with the Young Group or meeting Mandel, I am determined.”
Brandon looked at Savanna, his eyes slightly deep. “How far can you go? Do you dare to risk your life?”
Brandon mocked
Savanna gritted her teeth. “If possible, I don’t care. I don’t want my life anymore.”
Without Mandel, she was just a walking dead.
Brandon’s facial muscles trembled. He was furious.
Brandon suppressed the panic he felt and pursed his lips. “Come find me after the event is over.”
So he meant yes? Savanna could hardly believe her ears. She asked in surprise, “You agreed?”
After I pestered him for so long last night, he didn’t budge an inch. How will he easily agree today?
Savanna felt like she was dreaming.
Brandon looked up at her. “You are even risking your life for it. I can’t let Mandel lose his mother, right? Besides, you are right. He is your biological son after all. Naturally, you want to meet him. But, Savanna, I warn you, that I only promise you to meet him. I have the final say on how to meet him as well as the time and place. As for the cooperation between the Thompson Group and the Young Group. No way.”
Brandon could only make a concession to this point.
Savanna’s voice was full of excitement and her eyes were red. “Of course, I will listen to you. As long as you are willing to let me meet Mandel, you can let me do anything.”
There was no rush for cooperation between the Thompson Group and the Young Group.
Savanna thought that there were always priorities.
Brandon did not look at her anymore and directly opened the door to leave.
Savanna pinched her leg. A clear pain hit her. It was not a dream. Brandon really promised her to meet Mandel.
Great! Savanna was so happy that she did not know what to say.
Savanna stayed at the entrance of the break room. From time to time, she looked at the main stage of the event. She saw the audience gradually disperse, but Chloe was standing on the stage waiting. A woman who looked like an assistant walked to Chloe and whispered something into her ear. Chloe immediately stepped out of the hall.
After Brandon left the room, Savanna did not see him anymore.
Brandon’s pants were wet. He must have secretly left in case of attracting gossip.
Savanna left the inuseum backstage.
Just as she reached the entrance of the museum, the golden Bentley Continental drove over and stopped beside her.
The car window was rolled down and it was Seth.
“Ms. Thompson, Mr. Young asked me to come and pick you up.”
Savanna got in the car and the car drove quickly to the hotel.
