Chapter 538 Clear Up Misunderstanding "Savanna, that ring was indeed given to Lilia, but it was not given by me."
Brandon seized the opportunity and quickly explained.
"The ring was custom-made for her by Finn.”
"Then why is it kept by you?" Savanna was very puzzled.
In general, a ring, whether for proposals or for engagements, was very important. It was usually kept by the couple rather than someone else.
"It's a long story. To put it simply, I'll help them keep it temporarily."
Noticing that Savanna was still very suspicious, Brandon took out his mobile phone and dialed Finn's number.
Brandon got through very quickly. The minute Finn picked it up, Finn urged, "Are you done? After you nail your wife, hurry up and come over. The conference will start soon. You have a lot of work to do!"
"Help me prove it. Did you buy that ring for Lilia?" Brandon turned on the speaker and asked while Savanna was listening.
When Finn heard Brandon's question, Finn couldn't help but laugh. "I can't believe you still haven't handled your wife."
"Don't say such nonsense. Answer yes or no," Brandon urged.
To let Brandon tackle his problem with his wife quickly and thus come back to work, Finn helped Brandon. "Ms. Thompson, don't misunderstand. It was me that had people make that ring. It was
produced with a special technique in South Africa. There was a capital L inside, and the size of the ring was nine."
Finn said lots of details, which made his words more credible. Savanna somewhat believed him.
However, she was curious about one thing. "Mr. Orwell, since it's such an important ring, why did you give it to Brandon?"
Finn was silent for a few seconds. Then she heard him laughing.
Finn said with self-mockery, "We broke up. The ring became useless, and I didn't want to throw it away. So, I gave it to Brandon as a favor. I didn't expect you to argue about that."
"It's good that you know," Brandon said coldly. "You keep your things. Don't give them to me."
Finn felt that he was in the wrong. So, after telling Brandon to deal with the thing and come over soon, he hung up.
"Sorry, Brandon, I misunderstood you." Savanna looked at him apologetically.
"It's also my fault. I should have put the ring away or told you about it." Brandon sincerely apologized. "Sorry, Savanna, I made you misunderstand."
"It's okay. You've explained it. I thought you didn't love me anymore." As Savanna said, her nose suddenly got itchy, and there were tears in her eyes.
She loved him so much that she was afraid of losing him.
She, who had been worried for days, finally got relieved at this moment. Savanna put her arms around his waist.
Brandon was still holding the infusion bottle high with his hand while using the other hand to hug her. Putting his hand on her back, he gently patted her like he was comforting a child.
"Savanna, how could I not love you? Listen, everything I've done is for you and our children."
Savanna nodded with her head against his chest. Tears uncontrollably got her eyelids wet.
"What happened with the wound on your face and this infusion bottle?" Brandon asked her with concern. "Is it because you were mad at me? You knew I would be sad and deliberately punished me, right?"
Savanna looked up at him with misty eyes. "After quarreling with you, I had no appetite, causing blood sugar levels to drop."
She was so cute, like a child, which melted Brandon's heart. "It's all my fault. I didn't notice your unhappiness in time."
"It's your fault." Savanna hit him lightly on his chest with her free hand. "It's all your fault. You made me love you and care about you so much!"
They reconciled quickly, snuggling up to each other and flirting.
Not far away, Rex, who had come over to eavesdrop, was heartbroken.
He was particularly worried that Brandon would hurt Savanna, so he quietly ran over to listen to their talk and help Savanna in time.
However, he not only failed to help her but he got upset by their intimation.
Rex's tears were about to flow down, and he turned to leave in loneliness. But he bumped into a female doctor.
The female doctor saw him turn around and reached up to pat him on the shoulder. "Dr. Barton, there are plenty of women in the world. You don't need to cling to her."
Rex was speechless.
After clearing it up, Savanna and Brandon walked over hand in hand.
Brandon, who was worried, asked the female doctor about Savanna's condition and got confirmed that it was just a low blood sugar issue. He was completely relieved.
Savanna was sitting in a seat for patients, having an injection. Brandon was beside her. He covered the infusion tube with his hand to warm the liquid inside.
"Savanna, are you hungry? Do you need me to buy you something?"
Savanna shook her head and said she was not hungry.
Brandon still ordered something from a nearby restaurant and asked the staff to send it over.
As soon as he finished ordering, a phone call came in.
It was Finn. "Why is your line busy? You're with your wife, and how dare you call another woman?"
"Screw you. Say it," Brandon said coldly.
'Be careful with time. I don't want to see you haven't put on any makeup yet after the bidding conference starts. I haven't prepared anything for the bidding conference this time," Finn said casually.
Brandon frowned and looked up at the large infusion bottle full of transparent liquid.
Savanna met his gaze and immediately understood. "Brandon, do you have something urgent to do?"
Brandon answered honestly, "There will be a bidding conference. How long will it take for you to finish this injection?"
The female doctor answered immediately, "This infusion bottle will last for about an hour. There will be another two quick ones. We can finish all of them in about two hours."
"Two hours?" Brandon frowned. It was obvious that he thought it was too long.
After all, the bidding conference would start in less than two hours. He had to go put on make-up first and drive there. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
He also had to familiarize himself with the venue in preparation for the conference, which would take an extra ten minutes.
Savanna was considerate. "Brandon, if you have something to do, you go.
I'll go back myself after it's done."
"No, I can't be at ease if you go back alone." Brandon wanted to send her home, but he wasn't sure when the conference would be over.
"Dr. Barton can help," the female doctor said.
This irritated Brandon. When he heard the words "Dr. Barton", he looked angry immediately.
"Don't let him get you home! I'll get the driver to pick you up. You're not allowed to get in anyone's car except ours!"
