Chapter 138 Go on a Business Trip with Him
Savanna parked the car and returned home. Other than the coat on the sofa that proved that Lucas had i ndeed returned, there was no trace of him in all rooms.
After washing up, Savanna fell asleep the moment she touched the bed perhaps because she was too sl eepy.
Until she got up, Lucas had not returned yet.
After she had made breakfast, the door was opened. Lucas came in from outside, his body wrapped in a cold aura.
“Did you work overtime last night?”
Savanna asked.
Lucas softly hummed “yes“. He bent down to change his shoes. He looked up and saw Savanna walk back to the kitchen. He frowned, and his eyes were full of exhaustion. He yawned an d took his sleeve to sniff, observing the smell of alcohol.
He went straight upstairs, took off his shirt and suit, and threw his clothes into the washing machine.
Then, he went into the bathroom to take a shower. After a while, Lucas changed into clean clothes and felt refreshed. He buttoned his shirt and went downstairs.
His steps were steady and light.
Savanna brought the breakfast to the table, and Lucas sat on the chair, looking at the food on the table, all of which were his favorite.
“Savanna, you are so kind.”
Savanna‘s eyes were full of smiles. She picked up an egg and placed it on the plate in front of Lucas. “H urry up and eat it. You have to go to the company then. Today, there are still a few client contracts that ha ve not been finalized. After finishing them, you can start operating.”
“Okay.”
Lucas lowered his head, eating breakfast while looking at the morning newspaper in his hand.
“Last night, did you really sign a contract with a client?”
After a while, Lucas asked casually.
“Yes!”
Savanna did not want to tell Lucas about her meeting with Brandon. Besides, it was for the sake of meeting the child. The reas on was that she did not want him to be jealous.
Lucas was a man who often tended to be jealous.
When she was overseas, he was often jealous. Even when she asked foreigners for directions, he would be angry.
In order to show that she was not lying to him, Savanna even deliberately said, “Last night, the client was a bit difficult to deal with. Neil even helped me a lot.”
“Neil also went there?”
Lucas was still staring at the newspaper, his brows not furrowed. However, his eyes gradually darkened, and a strange light flashed across the end of his eyes.
“Yes.”
The atmosphere suddenly became subtle.
Lucas put down the newspaper and began to concentrate on eating breakfast. After that, he took a tissue to wipe his mouth. He quickly cleaned up the empty plates and went into the kitchen. He grabbed Savanna‘s hand that was about to wash the dishes. “Leave it. Let‘s go.”
Savanna took off her apron and left the house with Lucas.
Savanna was the driver. She first sent Lucas to L&S Limited, then drove to the Cassel Group.
Savanna entered the office and opened the curtains. The sunlight traversed through the window, dispellin g the dark. aura in the room.
She sat down and began to immerse herself in her work.
There was a faint pain coming from her temple. She raised her finger to rub her head and looked at her watch. It was already lunchtime.
She thought of yesterday at this time. Kadyn called to invite her for lunch. Now, she was alone. The face of “Manny” appeared in her mind and she naturally thought of her child, Mandel.
Did Mandel look like her or Brandon?
Or, he was not like both of them.
But the probability was small.
After all, Mandel was her and Brandon‘s child… Thinking of this, Savanna missed her child to a greater extent.
Her eyes fell on her phone. After hesitating for a while, she couldn‘t help but pick up her phone to call Gis elle.
The phone rang for a few seconds before it was connected.
Perhaps after a long time, Giselle did not hear any voice. She was a little impatient. “Hey, who are you wanting to talk with?”
Savanna didn‘t know what to say. Should she call Mrs. Cassel, or should she follow Lucas and call her A untie? If she called her Auntie, how should she say that she wanted to see the child? After all, she was Stella, the daughter–in–law of the Davis family.
What was worse, the last time they met, she had not admitted to Giselle that she was Savanna. Now that she was so bold to make a request, Giselle must have thought that her brain was screwed up.
The words stuck in her throat. Savanna could only hang up.
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Giselle cursed and hung up.
Savanna lit a cigarette and smoked slowly.
Cigarettes could make people calm down.
The restless blood in her body slowly returned to calmness.
Jim entered and said to Savanna, “Ms. Thompson, Mr. Cassel asked you to pack up and go on a business trip with him to Ireland.”
Savanna hated Ireland the most.
After all, Ireland was the place where Brandon had once chased after Winnie at all costs, so she resolutely refused. “I‘m not going.”
Jim did not expect Savanna to reject him without even thinking.
Jim was a little embarrassed. He went out and returned shortly with a helpless look
“Ms. Thompson, Mr. Cassel said that it was business. The company that we contacted has something to do with your new project. You mu st go.”
He noticed that his tone was a little harsh.
Jim hurriedly explained, “It‘s from Mr. Cassel.”
He didn‘t have the guts to order Savanna.
Savanna didn‘t even listen to Brandon‘s words, so how could she listen to a worker like him?
Seeing that Savanna only frowned and did not speak, Jim continued, “Mr. Cassel has gone to the airport. This is the ticket.” © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Jim put the ticket on the table and turned to leave.
Savanna stared at the plane ticket. The word “Ireland” on the ticket stabbed her in the heart. It was as if she had returned to that night five years ago. It was heavy rain. Giselle forced Brandon

If Winnie really died, wouldn‘t she have to pay the price?
The days in prison separating from her family were the most painful times of her life, with all her hopes and dreams turned to dust.
Even now, Savanna was unwilling to think back.
It‘s all over.
She said in her heart.
No matter how much she hated Ireland, this time, she was going on a business trip to seek benefits for L&S Limited.
As she thought like this, Savanna‘s emotions gradually calmed down.
She returned to Blue Bay No. 1, packed her luggage, and took the car to the airport.
It wasn‘t until she passed the check–up and entered the cabin that Savanna saw Brandon by the side of the seat.
Brandon was really good– looking. With a delicate outline, a handsome face, and a head of iconic silver hair, he looked very attractiv girls.
A flight attendant passed by them and frequently cast adoring glances at Brandon, asking him in a soft voice if he needed a blanket to cover his knees.
Brandon did not need it, so the flight attendant left disappointedly.
“Are you not tired of standing?”
Brandon did not even raise his head.
Savanna looked around and saw that all the passengers had found their seats. The cabin immediately qu
And Brandon‘s words were obviously directed at her.
Savanna put away the luggage and sat in the empty seat beside Brandon.
Throughout the whole process, the two of them almost had no communication.
Later, Savanna fell asleep, and the plane arrived in Ireland. It was the flight attendant who woke her up.
She could not help but look to the side. The seat next to her was already empty.
Brandon had walked to the front.
Savanna got up and reached out to take her luggage from the shelf above her head, following the passen cabin.
