I Have a 2013 Kia Sorento and have replaced the alternator and then the battery and since I have gotten the new battery 5 months ago it’s drained twice randomly to the point of needing it fully charged at the battery store , I’ve had it tested had it’s fine as is the alternator which is only 7 months old starter is fine as well I did the fuse read on all my fuses to check for a parasitic drain bit nothin g on that end either and the shops are no help either . Any advice would be helpful at this point . And the car is driven every day that it’s not having problems .
What makes this problem better or worse?

"The fuse read" -- what does this mean?
You could have a parasitic draw, but you'd lave to measure battery draw when the vehicle is off and see what it is. If the draw is excessive, you should monitor the amperage and remove fuses one by one until the draw goes away. Then you know the circuit you need to address.
Hands on testing is the only way to figure this stuff out. Good luck!
