Chapter 482
Isaac didn't give a damn about her indifference, he was used to it
He opened the dessert and handed it to her, 1 consulted the doctor, you've been getting better these days. Just a little more rest, and you're out of here." Brittany looked at the Taro Tiramisu he brought back and had a taste, "No need. I want to stay here a bit longer."
Busting out of the hospital was way easier than busting out of Radiant Residences.
Isaac felt a weight lift off his shoulders when he saw her cooperating with the treatment. He comforted her for a bit and then took a call. He didn't want Brittany to overthink, so he picked it up right in front of her.
After a few words on the phone, Isaac got up and left.
His voice wasn't loud, but Brittany still caught words like 'engagement banquet, 'reporter" and "media"
He was probably on the phone with Shona
Brittany suddenly lost her appetite. She wasn't in the mood for eavesdropping.
As soon as she turned on her phone, it started vibrating
She picked it up and saw that it was Lionel.
It looked like Joie's news came through.
She had contacted Hannah several times while she was locked up in the hospital, and Isaac knew all about their chats. She could guess that there might be some spyware on her phone. She answered the call, and Lionel's voice echoed in her ear.
"Bri
"Bro, happy new year"
Lionel was relieved to hear her voice as calm as usual, "You've been avoiding us these days, we've been worried sick
"Bro, I'm good now"
"You and Isaac...
"Let's talk about it when I'm out."
Brittany propped herself up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the whole city and having a sense of overlooking the world.
There was a layer of steam on the window, and she absentmindedly doodled on it.
Hearing that, Lionel said, 1 see. Rest well. We'll pick you up when you're discharged."
Brittany hung up the phone, turned around, and there was Isaac standing behind her, his face as cold as ice.
"Who were you talking to?"
"My bro. Brittany handed him the phone, "Do you want to check it?"
Isaac pursed his lips and said, "That's not what I meant."
"If not, then don't ask."
He knew everything they said, didn't he?
Isaac walked up to her, gently wrapping his arms around her waist but with authority, Do you want to go back to Radiant Residences tonight and have dinner with Grandma?"
"No need"
Brittany didn't want to be tangled up with Grace anymore, "Grace probably doesnt like me much now. I'm not fully recovered; I don't want to go back."
"Alright, I'll stay with you here."
Isaac kissed her forehead, and Brittany suddenly remembered an important question, "How did you meet Joie?"
All she knew was
Joie saved Grace once.
Isaac didn't want to hide it from her. He picked her up, put her on the bed, and while fixing her blanket, he said, 7 was kidnapped when I was little; she saved me. We got separated while escaping" Brittany asked casually. "Kidnapped? When was this?"
"When I was seven."
Brittany's face changed abruptly
Wasn't that twenty years ago?
Isaac thought she was feeling sorry for him; he deliberately made it sound worse. "I was seriously Injured at the time, and she fell into the sea. I've been looking for her for years but couldn't replace her." Britany's heart raced, "Where did it happen?"
'H chy
She couldn't believe her eyes. Looking at Isaac's handsome face, the only thought in her mind was, "This is absurdr
The brother she had been missing, the one she escaped with, turned out to be Isaac!
And Joie took her place, becoming the darling of the Salter family!
