Awkwardness flashed across Flora’s face. She looked back at Tyrell and Brandon before leaving. Tyrell
looked calm.
Tyrell licked his teeth as he looked at Brandon. He still remembered the taste of porridge he ate before.
Silence reigned the room. A moment later, Tyrell raised his eyebrows and broke the silence. “What’s
the matter?”
“Will you raise Mandel?”
Tyrell understood Brandon wanted to return Mandel to him.
Tyrell looked down and thought for a moment before saying, “From the bottom of my heart, I want him
back. He is my only son. But you know, when I recover, I will be sent to prison…”
Tyrell hesitated and glanced at Brandon from time to time. “Unless you won’t sue me.”
Brandon said seriously, “These are two different things. I feel sorry for Mandel. He has been living with
me for more than five years. We have connections. However, he is at odds with Tye.”
Tyrell understood. This was why Brandon wanted to return Mandel to him.
Tyrell smiled mockingly. “Mandel is not your son. Of course, you will sacrifice him.”
Brandon narrowed his eyes. “Tyrell, I raised Mandel for a whole five years. And you have always been
hiding in the dark and living a carefree life. If you want him to have a good place to go, you’d better
think about it. Otherwise, I will send him to the orphanage.”
Tyrell’s face darkened. “I’ll raise Mandel. I will try my best to raise him well. But I’m afraid he won’t be
willing to live with me.”
Mandel was right. Mandel did not want to leave Savanna and Brandon.
“I will tell him the truth. You are his biological father.”
Brandon turned around and opened the door. He looked up and saw Flora standing outside the door
with a broom. Brandon wondered if she had heard the conversation between him and Tyrell.
Flora’s face was blushing. Flora looked down and nodded slightly. She moved aside. Brandon ignored
her and strode away.
Flora watched Brandon as he disappeared into the aisle. She felt a great pain deep down.
Bang!
The broom fell from her hand.
Flora quickly chased after Brandon.
Brandon had just reached the entrance of the hospital when Flora shouted behind him. “Brandon, wait
a moment.”
Brandon turned around and saw Flora in purple. She was panting.
Brandon looked indifferent. Flora took a deep breath. Her face was red and she bit her red lips. She
screwed up her courage and met Brandon’s probing gaze. “Brandon, I came to visit Tyrell just because
no one took care of him…”
Brandon understood what she meant. He said calmly, “That’s your business. Flora, you don’t have to
tell me this.”
Looking at Brandon’s cold and distant face, Flora couldn’t help but feel pain in her heart. She tried to be
as gentle as possible. “I’m serious, Brandon. I always love you. However, you never love me. I had no
choice but to come to Tyrell. He resembles you. Being with him, I feel happy.”
Brandon understood. Flora was treating Tyrell as a substitute.
“You don’t have to tell me. You and Tyrell are both single, and you can be a pair. But I am married.
gentle. My best friend often laughed at me. She said if I liked you so much, I should take you from my
sister. However, I knew that I couldn’t do this. Winnie passed away early because of illness. But I can
take care of you in her place. You love Winnie so much, and I believe that one day, you will also love
me. I will wait for that day to come.”
Finally pouring out her long-suppressed feelings, Flora felt much better.
She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and sniffed her red nose. But she failed to hold back
her tears.
Brandon was furious with Flora’s pestering.
He warned, “Flora, I’ve never loved Winnie. Please don’t misunderstand me. It’s just pity and sympathy.
Her leg was hurt for me.”
Unable to accept Brandon’s words, Flora clenched her fists tightly. She could not suppress her anger
as she shouted, “Winnie lost her life for you. You are such a hypocrite. Brandon, how can you do this to
Winnie? Not long after she died, you’ve forgotten her. Now you say that you never loved her. You went
to Ireland to look for her desperately and abandoned your family because of her, do you remember?
Winnie donated her kidney to you, don’t you remember? You make me disappointed. Brandon, aren’t
you afraid that Winnie will haunt you all your life?”
