Chapter 62

After waiting for a full twelve hours, it was finally the Thompson Group’s turn. Justin cheered Savanna
on.
“Do your best, Ms. Thompson.”
Savanna took the file, suppressed her nervousness, and calmly entered the bidding site.
Savanna immediately noticed Brandon, who was sitting in the prominent seat. He was wearing an iron-
gray suit and a blue tie. He looked dangerous and mighty, even though he was just sitting there with his
head down.
“Please take a seat.”
The examiner next to Brandon said in a solemn tone.
“Thank you.”
Savanna stepped forward. She took a breath and began to pour out words.
Her beautiful silhouette was cast on the projection screen. Her hair was tied up in a bun. She was
dressed in a blue business suit, which made her look gentle yet capable. Her fair face and rosy-like lips
were soul-stirring. However, the examiners were all business elites. What could attract them was not only
beauty but also work capacity.
Without work capacity, in their eyes, she was just a Barbie doll.
Savanna was in a very good state. She talked as continuously as a flowing river. When she talked, she
would inadvertently make eye contact with Brandon. Behind his glasses, there were his sharp and cold
eves. She avoided them without a trace, as calm as if she and Brandon were strangers.
After finishing the presentation, Savanna exited.
Brandon looked up. Seeing Savanna’s tall and slim figure, Brandon narrowed his long eyes. Latent
danger hid under his deep eyes.
“How is it?”
Seeing Savanna, Justin immediately handed her a bottle of water.



Savanna unscrewed the cap and drank. No one knew how nervous she was. She was so nervous that
even her fingertips were covered in sweat. Brandon was very cold, so cold that she wanted to end the
speech and immediately exit the bidding site. But she stuck to the end for the Thompson Group’s future.
“The hope is frail.”
If Brandon made things difficult for the Thompson Group, there was no chance of winning.
If Brandon made things difficult for the Thompson Group, there was no chance of winning. No matter
how wonderful her presentation was, the Thompson Group’s condition was not up to standard. The
Cassel Group was not foolish. They would not invest in the Thompson Group.
Justin said, “We have done our best.”
In Justin’s opinion, Brandon might show mercy to the Thompson Group if he kept the relationship with
Savanna in mind.
However, Justin was well aware that Brandon had a reputation for integrity. He put righteousness above
relationships.
Justin was hoping for a fluke.
There were a few powerful companies who made agreements with the Cassel Group on the spot.
When they left, they grinned from ear to ear. Then, several less powerful companies got some projects.
Seeing that it was hopeless for the Thompson Group, Savanna was about to leave. At that moment, a
crowd appeared at the bidding site’s entrance. The group of people led by Brandon walked out. People
from other companies sidestepped to make a way.
Brandon saw Savanna and Justice. But he didn’t even look at Savanna. Instead, he brushed past
them, bringing along a cold wind that could seep into bones.
Savanna felt a strong sense of loss.
She tidied her hair and walked out of the investment company with Justin. She got into the car. As the
car started, a car crashed into hers from behind. Although it wasn’t severe, the trunk was damaged.
Justin got out of the car and was about to curse at the perpetrator. The car window rolled down. Justin
was shocked to see the person in the car.” Mr. Dawson!”
Bob’s smile was cold and bitter.



His indifferent gaze shifted from Justin’s surprised face to Savanna. Bob said, “You are overconfident.”
Then, Bob’s car drove forward speedily.
“Damn it…”
Looking at the damaged trunk, Justin was so irritated that his face turned pale.
Savanna said, “Just take him as a madman.”
Savanna knew why Bob was unpleasant. He wanted to vent his anger on her for Brandon.
On the way to the 4S stores, the more Savanna thought about it, the angrier she became. “Send the
bill to the Dawson’s house,” she said to Justin.
A black Cayenne drove slowly on the road. When Justin saw Cayenne, he opened the window and made
a thumbs-down gesture at it.
Then, Justin stepped on the accelerator. The car sped up and left the Cayenne far away behind it.
Seeing that the trunk of Justin’s car was broken, Jim turned to look at the man in the back seat.
He said, “Mr. Cassel, Ms. Thompson’s car was hit.”
Brandon closed his eyes, seemingly uninterested in what Jim had said.
Jim continued, “I think it was Mr. Dawson who did it.”
Brandon opened his eyes.
He said, “Stop the car.”
Jim parked the car by green belts. After that, Jim got out of the car and stood by the side. Brandon went
around the front of the car and sat in the driver’s seat.
The black Cayenne chased after Bob’s car. Seeing that a car was chasing him, Bob turned around. The
black Cayenne crashed into his car in medium strength. The sound of metal friction sounded in the air.
Bob was about to stop the car. However, the car jolted and was knocked out one mile away with a bang.
Bob got out of the car in exasperation. He roared at the black Cayenne.
“What the hell!”
Bob didn’t dare to continue cursing. Because he saw Brandon’s cold face in the car.
Bob realized that something was wrong. He had just bumped into Savanna’s car, and Brandon had come



to hit him. It was obvious that Brandon was helping Savanna.
Bob shivered.

He explained, “Brandon, I was simply angry. She doesn’t want you anymore. What’s the point of
protecting her?”
Brandon did not bother to explain. His tone was cold.
“It is best not to do that deed. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
“I’ll pay the repair charge.”
Brandon acted like he could be the only one to bully Savanna. After speaking, he drove away.
Bob was furious. He dialed Ben sullenly.
Ben smiled.
“Brandon has fallen in love. But he hasn’t noticed it.”
Love happened occasionally, but it could become deep.
Bob complained, “But he didn’t give the Thompson Group a single chance on business.”
Ben concluded, “Brandon always hides his feelings.”
“Can you tell? He looks cold, but in fact, he always protects her. I have to remind you that don’t be a fool
anymore.”
Bob was full of regret.
He had wanted to curry favor with Brandon, but the plan backfired.
Justin had arrived at the 4S shop when Bob called him. Bob said a bunch of apologies and paid the bill.
In the evening, Savanna received a call from Yvonne surprisingly.
Yvonne said, “Your presentation has gained success today.”
Savanna frowned. She did not believe it.
“Yvonne, it’s impossible.”
Yvonne answered, “The list has just been released. I have read it. The Thompson Group is on the list.
Although the investment is not big, the current Thompson Group is not qualified for a bigger one.”
Upon receiving this news, Savanna was overjoyed.
Ever since she was young, Savanna had lived under her father’s protection. She had always been able



to lead an easy life with everything provided. Now, she was able to achieve success with her efforts. It
was indescribable.
The next day, the Thompson Group was notified by the Cassel Group to sign a contract. Savanna was
glad that the Thompson Group was able to cooperate with the Cassel Group. That night, she opened
champagne to celebrate with Justin.
After returning to the Thompson’s home, Savanna packed up her luggage. Soon, she set off for southern
New York with several people. She wanted to go investigate and figure out how much funds it would cost
to carry out the resort project.
