Love Has Its Will

Love Has its Will by Selena Lewis Chapter 346

Perhaps because Fabian discovered that Savanna had woken up or he was wary of Savanna, Fabian

turned off the speakerphone and lowered his voice.

Savanna couldn’t hear what they were talking about.

After chatting for a while, Fabian asked the woman to wait for him to have a good rest before he hung

As soon as the call ended, someone else called Fabian.

The ringing stopped. Fabian picked up the phone. It was unknown what the one on the other end of the

line said. Fabian’s voice was cold. “I’ll be right there.”

Fabian said while walking out the door.

In a hurry, Fabian even forgot to close the office door.

Savanna waited for a while. Since there was no longer any sound that entered her ears, Savanna got

up and rubbed the back of her head which was hurting. She searched around Fabian’s office, but she

could not find the recording pen. Savanna thought Fabian probably took it away. Fabian would not

allow such an important thing to fall into her hand.

Savanna left the Colon Group from the back door.

She got into the car.

Her phone buzzed.

Then it rang, and the name ‘Seth’ appeared on the

screen.

Savanna drove the car out of the garage while answering the phone. “Hello.”

“Mrs. Young, Lorena’s ashes have been found. Mr. Young is looking for you everywhere. Where have

you been?”

Seth’s voice came.

Hearing the news that Lorena’s ashes had been found, Savanna could not suppress the joy and asked,

“Where did you find them? Seth, you and Jim did a great job.”

Seth was embarrassed by Savanna’s praise. “Mrs. Young, Jim, and I didn’t find it. Ms. Colon sent it

over. She said that someone found it, but she didn’t tell us who it was.”

They only knew a “Ms. Colon”. That was Dahlia.

Dahlia’s father designed a plan to steal the ashes. But Dahlia racked her brains to send the ashes

back. What did Fabian and Dahlia want?

Savanna would not simply think that Dahlia was upright enough to help them. Maybe Dahlia brought

the ashes back to approach Brandon.

The news was like a bucket of cold water poured down from the top of Savanna’s head, extinguishing

her enthusiasm and expectation of finding Lorena’s ashes.

Now, Dahlia was a great contributor to Brandon.

But Savanna…

Savanna gave a bitter and helpless smile. She had been busy for so long, but it was useless. Dahlia

found Lorena’s ashes before her.

Hearing no response, Seth shouted, “Mrs. Young, are you there?”

“Yes.”

Savanna snapped back to reality and smiled, pretending to be happy. “Great. We have to thank

Dahlia.”

Seth replied, “Yes. In the past, I thought Dahlia was not a good person. Now it seems that she is not

that bad.”

Seth told the truth, but Savanna did not feel good.

Savanna thought that even Seth was attracted to Dahlia.

Savanna drove the car back to the Young’s home.

There was no trace of Brandon. Seth told Savanna with a smile, “Mr. Young is in the ancestral temple.

The priest is choosing the date of Lorena’s burial. Many days have been delayed. Mr. Young said that

he would choose another auspicious day.”

Savanna nodded and forced a smile.

On the way to the ancestral temple, Savanna passed by the room where Renee stayed last night.

Aspen was knitting a sweater outside the room. Seeing that Savanna had come back, Aspen stopped

what she was doing and looked at Savanna with sparkling eyes. “Mrs. Young, you are back. Lorena’s

ashes were found. Ms. Colon sent them back.”

It could be seen that Aspen was happy and grateful to Dahlia.

Aspen was another person whom Dahlia softened

Dahlia’s move was truly brilliant.

Seth and Aspen were grateful to Dahlia, and Jim was no exception, not to mention Brandon.

A bad feeling surged through Savanna.

Savanna smiled at Aspen and glanced sideways at the closed door. She asked, “She didn’t cause

trouble, did she?”

Aspen followed Savanna’s line of sight and looked into the room. “Renee is not in a good mental state.

She slept for a while and was scared awake by the nightmare. After she woke up, she has been in a

daze on the bed.”

Savanna didn’t say anything and walked towards the ancestral temple of the Young family.

Aspen lowered her head and knitted the sweater.

When Savanna arrived at the ancestral temple, the

door was ajar. She looked inside and saw a priest in a black robe facing the memorial tablet of the

Young family. He lowered his head and muttered something. His voice was soft, so Savanna could not

hear him clearly. Savanna’s gaze swept across the priest’s broad back. At a glance, she saw Lorena’s

memorial tablet which was placed in the front. Beside it was a square box. The lost ashes were inside.

Brandon stood straight next to the priest. He was in awe of the memorial tablets in front of him. The

huge ancestral temple was quiet. Only the priest’s prayers could be heard. Occasionally, a gust of wind

blew. The candle lights on the shrine shone on Brandon, making his tall and straight body glow with a

faint light.

Savanna gently pushed open the door. She walked up to Brandon, reached out, and gently tugged at

the corner of Brandon’s clothes. Brandon turned his head and met her clear eyes. A faint smile

appeared on Brandon’s face as he gestured for her not to speak in case she would disturb the priest.

Savanna knew that Brandon was not superstitious. The reason he did this was only to show respect to

the deceased ancestors of the Young family.

Savanna stood side by side with Brandon, kept her spirits up, and listened to the priest’s prayers.

Finally, the priest finished chanting. He opened his cold eyes and said to Brandon, “In five days, it will

be a good day. Bury Lorena in five days.”

“Alright. Thank you for your hard work.”

Brandon sent the priest away, and Savanna followed him out of the ancestral temple.

As soon as she walked out of the ancestral temple, Seth hurried over. He walked around, closed the

door, and put the key into his pocket.

Seth saw that Savanna hadn’t left, so he asked, “Mrs. Young, what’s wrong?”

Savanna forced a smile. “It’s fine.”

Savanna passed through the rockery pavilion and returned to the hall.

Brandon had just returned after seeing the priest

off. Their eyes met, and Savanna had a smile on her face. Before she could speak, Brandon asked,

“Where did you go?”

Brandon raised his wrist to look at his watch. From the time he started looking for Savanna, Savanna

had disappeared for five hours.

Savanna smiled more happily. “Did you look for me?”

Brandon walked forward and pulled her into his arms. He combed the bangs between her eyebrows.

“Of course, I’m a little worried…”

Savanna didn’t intend to tell anyone about Fabian knocking her out. When she heard that Brandon was

worried about her, she couldn’t hold it in and told him, “I went to Fabian. He didn’t admit it at first. After I

recorded what he said, he knocked me out,

SO…”

Brandon frowned when he heard Savanna’s story.

Brandon asked Jim to find a doctor. The doctor checked Savanna’s body, especially her head. After the

doctor concluded that there was no big problem, Brandon was still worried and asked the doctor to

prescribe some ointment for blood circulation and bruises.

As soon as the doctor left, Brandon dragged Savanna into the room upstairs.

As soon as Savanna sat on the bed, Brandon reached out, grabbed the corner of Savanna’s shirt, and

pushed it upwards. Savanna grasped Brandon’s hand and stopped his erotic actions. “What … are you

doing?”

Lorena hadn’t been buried yet, so they had to keep vigil beside her coffin.

Brandon raised his eyebrows. “What are you thinking? I just want to see the wound on your waist.”

Brandon gently moved Savanna’s hands away and then lifted Savanna’s shirt up. Bruises on her

healthy skin came into his view.

There were a lot of clots. Brandon wrinkled his eyebrows and opened the ointment. After touching the

ointment, he gently rubbed the bruises on Savanna’s waist.

In the morning, Renee hit Savanna’s waist with something. Savanna didn’t feel any pain, maybe

because she was concerned about Lorena’s ashes. Now, Brandon was helping her apply ointment.

Savanna was so painful that she broke out in a cold sweat.

Savanna was not pretentious. It was indeed painful.

Brandon heard Savanna’s groan and slowed down. He moved lightly as if he was afraid to hurt her.

Brandon was done.

Savanna looked into Brandon’s eyes. Although her smile was light, it was sincere. “How did you know I

was injured?”

Brandon returned, “I heard it from Aspen.”

Savanna said, “Aspen is just a big mouth. She tells you everything.”

Brandon put away the ointment and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

Soon, Brandon came out. He wiped the water from his hands and habitually caressed Savanna’s hair.

“Don’t think too much about it. As your husband, it is only right for me to care about you.”

There was nothing wrong with it.

Looking at Brandon, Savanna thought of what Seth and Aspen said.

They both praised Dahlia.

Thinking about this, Savanna felt a little sour. “Brandon, we are not husband and wife now. You don’t

have to care about me.”

Brandon’s lips curved into a smile when he heard this. He didn’t bother to hide the smile on his face. “If

you don’t mind, we will go and register our marriage now.”

Savanna looked down.

She thought of the grudge between the two families, her biological mother Renee, and Fabian. She

could not determine the direction of her future life.

Who knew what would happen next?

Brandon saw Savanna’s hesitation and knew what she was thinking. His fingertips gently brushed past

Savanna’s moist lips. “Dahlia sent grandma’s ashes over. I couldn’t refuse her. Savanna, if you don’t

like it, I will hide far away from wherever she is. With her participation in the project, I will try not to get

involved and contact her. Can you be a little

happier?”

They had lived together for more than two years. Telling from an expression or a few words, Brandon

would know what Brandon was thinking.

When Savanna came back, Brandon knew that she was forcing smiles. Seeing that she wanted to ask,

but she held back her tongue, Brandon directly said it. He was afraid that if Savanna held it in for too

long, she would go mad. In other words, she would then make trouble with him. And the last thing that

Brandon wanted to do was to quarrel with Savanna.

Savanna made a cute expression at him. “I’m not unhappy. No matter who it is, as long as he can send

‘grandma’ back, I have to thank him.”

Brandon pinched Savanna’s nose, lowered his head, and kissed her on the forehead as if to relieve

her. “Don’t worry. The mother of my child can only be you.”
