Savanna took a bite of the egg white and looked around. Somehow, she sensed something was amiss. Then Lizeth came in with a fruit salad. Suddenly it dawned on Savanna what went wrong.

Then she asked, “Lizeth, where is Seth?”

Lizeth put down the plate and wiped the sweat on her forehead. There were some dark circles under her eye, which suggested that she didn’t sleep well last night. “I don’t know. I haven’t seen him since yesterday. And I failed to contact him either.”

Then both Lizeth and Savanna turned to Brandon. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Brandon, who had finished his breakfast, was wiping his fingers with a tissue. Then he looked up, only to find Savanna and Lizeth looking at him. With his face cold and his voice emotionless, he said, “I sent him on a secret mission. Lizeth, don’t contact him for the time being.”

Due to Brandon’s words, all doubts were erased from Lizeth’s mind.

But after thinking a bit, Lizeth, with a frown on her face, still seemed worried. “Mr. Cassel, what mission is it? Can’t I contact him?”

Lizeth thought, I’m his girlfriend.

What kind of mission would forbid a man from

contacting his girlfriend?

Brandon’s voice remained cold. “No.”

Lizeth wasn’t resigned to that. But Savanna signaled to her to stop. Then Brandon stood up and left without a backward glance.

Lizeth, feeling wronged, looked at Savanna. “Savanna, I…”

Savanna patted Lizeth on the shoulder gently.

“Seth is just away carrying out a secret mission. After the mission, he then will come back to you.”

Lizeth’s eyes were slightly red. “I was up all night waiting for him last night. I mean, even if it’s an urgent task, he should have called me.”

Brandon didn’t dare to say anything about Brandon. Therefore, she just put the blame on Seth.

“Savanna, do you think Seth didn’t contact me because he doesn’t care about me?”

Savanna thought for a moment and said, “Lizeth, it’s all in your mind. If you love him, you need to trust him.”

Speaking of trust, Savanna felt that there was something off with Brandon this morning. But she could not tell what that was.

At noon after lunch, Savanna was taking a rest upstairs as usual. Then a car horn sounded from downstairs. Savanna woke up.

Then she got up, walked to the windowsill, and looked out. There was a Cayenne in the courtyard. After the door opened, Brandon, with a tall figure, came out of the car. In his wake, Mandel, with a tiny figure, got out of the car as well. Brandon did say in the morning that he was going to pick up Mandel. But Savanna didn’t expect that to happen so quickly. And why didn’t Brandon ask her to pick up the child together anyway?

Savanna walked out of the room and went downstairs. Just as she got to the living room, she saw Brandon, with Mandel’s small hand in his, walking in

Mandel’s cheeks were ruddy, and his eyes were bright. At the sight of Savanna, he rushed over happily and threw his arms around Savanna’s leg. “Savanna, I miss you so much. Why didn’t you come to see me?”

As he said, Mandel kept rubbing his cheek on Savanna’s pants.

Savanna bent over, held up his face, and kissed him on the forehead. “I have been feeling unwell these days. I had planned to go see you after I got better. But look at you. You are already here before I can

reach out to you.”

Savanna then glanced at Brandon, only to find that he was not looking at her at all. Instead, he went right upstairs with a small suitcase in his hand.

“Was you who made Brandon unhappy?” Savanna scratched Mandel softly on the nose and asked lovingly.

Mandel turned around and looked at Brandon a bit before shaking his head. “No, I wasn’t. Brandon had been keeping me in his arms all the while in the hospital. And when we were about to leave there, he offered to carry me. But I turned him down. I mean, come on. I’m already five and a half years old. People will laugh at me if they see him carrying me.

“Am I right, Savanna?” Mandel’s eyes rolled a bit.

Probably because he was just discharged from the hospital, Mandel looked extremely happy. He even made a face at Savanna playfully.

A look of suspicion flashed through Savanna’s face.

Then Savanna started to make lunch for Mandel since he said he was hungry. During lunch, Mandel ate with relish. Meanwhile, Savanna, who sat across him, kept looking at him. Before, she thought Mandel bore a resemblance to her, but that was all in her mind since, after taking a closer look at him now, she found that there was not a shadow of

herself and Brandon in Mandel.

But then again, although she wasn’t the one who gave birth to Mandel, she loved Mandel regardless.

Then Mandel finished his lunch, put the plate on the table, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. “Savanna, I’ve finished eating.”

“Good boy.” Savanna gave Mandel a thumbs-up.

Then she took a piece of tissue to wipe the oil stains from Mandel’s mouth and the food on his sleeves. With a frown on her face, Savanna said, “Baby, you never wiped your mouth with your sleeves before.”

Mandel said, “The nurse has said that we can’t waste tissue. That’s why I use my sleeves.”

Savanna thought, what kind of nurse is that, teaching children to wipe their mouths like this?

At that moment, a crisp sound sounded from downstairs. Then Lizeth ran in. “Savanna, Tye has lost his temper in the multi-function room. He is smashing the TV.”

Savanna looked down at her watch. Now was the time when Tye watched animated cartoons.

Ten to one, he failed to make the cartoons play. That was why Tye was angry and started to throw things

away.

Savanna ran to the multi-function room right away. When she got there, she saw a smashed remoter on the floor and a smashed widescreen on the wall with a hole in the center. Needless to say, the sound she heard just now came from Tye smashing the TV

screen.

Savanna’s eyes swept around the room. Then she saw Tye sitting on the sofa with his legs bent. His head was lowered, but one could see that both his cheeks and his neck were blushing with anger, and his cheeks were bulging. And after hearing the sound of footsteps, Tye looked up at the door, only to find Savanna gazing at him in surprise.

Tye looked away as if he was angry with Savanna.

“What’s the matter?”

If Tye wasn’t an autistic child, Savanna might get worked up about it. But Tye had been gone for over five years! Savanna simply didn’t have the heart to blame him.

Savanna walked over, held Tye’s chin, and turned his face to herself gently. “What are you angry about? Is it because you can’t play cartoons?”

Tye slapped her hand away from his chin and turned away again, ignoring her.

At that moment, Mandel came up. Noticing that Tye had broken the TV screen, Mandel shouted at Tye

angrily, “What a wild kid! Why did he break the TV screen in my house?”

Tye turned to Mandel, whose face twisted in anger, and frowned, as if he was saying, “I am not a wild child. You are.”

Mandel did not know that Tye could not speak and thought that Tye was afraid to admit to his mistakes. Therefore, Mandel became even angrier.

Then Mandel looked down under the sofa. His pupils shrank a bit. After that, he hurried to walk forward and pick up the shattered cartoon book on the floor. He was so angry that his eyes turned red. “You tore my cartoon book?”

Actually, Mandel was angry not just because of the book but also because of Tye’s invasion of his territory.

The room used to be his domain, where no one dared to enter. But now there was this kid in here!

Mandel, feeling extremely wronged, turned around and grabbed Savanna’s sleeve, crying, “Savanna, my book is broken. That wild child, who is he? Can you take him away? Savanna!”

Savanna’s heart jumped when she heard the words “wild child”.

She had never expected that, after Mandel returned,

with the two children together in the same room, things would turn out like this.

Mandel kept crying, his body twitching nonstop, while Tye just turned his face away and did not even look at her at all. At the sight of this, Savanna was torn.

Then she comforted Mandel, “Mandel, he is a child

who I gave birth to with Brandon. I just found him. Can you try to accept him a bit?”

Mandel stopped crying after hearing that. Then he fluttered his eyelashes, where there were tears on them, and stared at Tye.
