Chapter 803

Isaac was a man who never knew moderation.

Tonight, he was taking things to a whole new level.

After Brittany had drifted off to sleep, Isaac, clad in his pajamas, made his way to the study.

Nathan was on a break, leaving his tasks in the capable hands of Derek, who was already there, waiting in the study.

"Marcel is stirring up trouble."

Isaac had gained great fame, and Marcel couldn't have just sat still. Who knows what schemes he was concocting against them.

"Keep a close eye on him."

After sorting through all the paperwork, Derek approached, dropping his usual aloof demeanor, "So, you and Bri patched things. up. When are you planning to make it official?" "I'm planning a proposal."

To be precise, the preparations were nearly complete..

Derek's eyes lit up, "Need any help?"

"No need." Isaac shook his head, determined to take care of this personally.

Derek clicked his tongue, marveling at the transformative power of love - even making a typically detached man like Isaac plan a proposal ceremony himself.

"Is Nathan coming back tomorrow?"

"Yeah, we've talked."

Isaac pulled open a drawer, retrieved a folder and said, "This is a new project. I've assessed it with Wesley Tueley, it's promising. Take another look, and if it's solid, get it moving." "Will do."

After that, Derek left.

After his departure, Isaac received a call.

"Mr. Salter, Marcel is planning to marry Zella Anderson."

Nathan's voice was hoarse, clearly not fully recovered.

"Are you certain of this?"

"Absolutely, it seems Marcel made the move."

"Also, the task you entrusted to me have been completed. In three months max, Grandeur Capital will be nothing but a shell. Marcel will replace himself with a multibillion liability rather than an asset!" Nathan had to admire Isaac's cunning, trapping Marcel in so little time.

But if Ms. Dustin ever found out Mr. Salter had been laying traps, that could spell trouble.

"Keep it under wraps."

Isaac knew full well this needed to stay hidden.

Brittany had only just forgiven him; revealing these machinations would risk everything spiraling out of control.

Once Daniel left, Brittany and Isaac enjoyed an intimate period together.

And soon, it was Brittany's birthday. She rarely celebrated it - having lost her mother young, and with Robert hardly a caring figure, preoccupied with lavishing attention on Patrina, who would remember her birthday?

But this year, something felt different.

Isaac seemed to be up to something, probably planning a surprise. Brittany sensed his secretiveness but chose not to confront it. Instead, she played along, affording Isaac more freedom to execute his plans.

On her birthday morning, she awoke early.

Isaac had prepared breakfast, enjoyed the meal with her, and dropped her off at her workplace.

"Remember to keep your evening free."

Brittany's smiled, "Sure, I will."

All day, Brittany wondered what Isaac's birthday surprise might be. She racked her brain but couldn't conjure any specific image.

In the end, she decided to just let it go.

That afternoon, she received a bouquet of sunflowers and a gift box.

At first, she assumed they were from Isaac.

But after signing for them, she realized they were from William.

He was always thoughtful, sending her favorite sunflowers, and in the gift box was a pair of couple's watches.

Seeing those watches, Brittany felt a pang of guilt.

For years, she had never truly reciprocated William's affection.

She carefully put away the gifts and dialed William's number to thank him.
