Robert didn't even finish talking when he got hung up on. He cursed in anger, "Such a jerk!"
What an ungrateful wretch!
Gianna came out of the kitchen with a cup of water, and comforted him, "Honey, don't get too excited. I guess Bri just didn't understand it for a while, that's why she messed out."
Robert took the water, "Well, if she hasn't tasted hardship, then let her taste it now!"
A smirk flashed across Gianna's face. Having placated her husband, she went upstairs.
At this moment, Patrina was taking care of her skin. Seeing her mother, she asked, "Mom, why are you here?"
"Tomorrow, Brittany is going back to the company. You should behave well. Try to get your dad to kick her out completely!"
Brittany had joined the company of the Dustin family since she graduated from college, and she had performed very well, and the shareholders were even more fond of her. At this rate, the entire Dustin family's assets would be in Brittany's hands!
"Mom, don't worry. I won't let Brittany have an easy time," Patrina assured.
Gianna had faith in her daughter. After chatting for a while, she left.
As soon as she was gone, Patrina dialed Finn's number, "Finn, tomorrow my sister is going back to the company. I'm worried that she's still blaming me, and I want to apologize to her-"
"Patty, you didn't do anything wrong. Why apologize?"
At the mention of Brittany, Finn hesitated for a moment before a wave of disgust replaced it.
He and Brittany grew up together, and he had always regarded Brittany as one of the most important people in his life.
When they were fifteen, they encountered danger, but Brittany dropped him and left immediately. He was seriously injured and narrowly escaped death, but Brittany didn't show up at the hospital for more than three months.
It wasn't until later that Brittany reappeared in front of him!
He deliberately distanced himself from Brittany, but she confessed her feelings to him. He initially thought of just playing around with her, but he didn't expect that they would end up together for four years. If Brittany had said sorry even once in the past four years, things wouldn't have turned out this way!
Now, Brittany deserved everything coming her way!
Patrina was pleased, "But Finn, I'm worried she'll get mad."
"Patty, you're too kind. I'll be with you tomorrow."
Finn was once again glad he had chosen the gentle and considerate Patrina over the hypocritical and nauseating Brittany!
The next morning.
Brittany got up early and prepared breakfast, two portions.
She was eating slowly when Isaac came out of the bedroom, dressed in a suit and looking extremely refined.
"Good morning, Zakky."
Brittany greeted him and pointed to the other portion of breakfast, "This one is yours. Want some?"
Isaac didn't want to eat, but the enticing aroma got the better of him, and he went over and sat down.
The breakfast was simple, sandwiches with coffee. The coffee had milk in it, and the rich, intoxicating aroma of coffee mixed with the scent of milk was irresistible.
He picked up the coffee and took a sip, "Where did these coffee beans come from?"
He remembered that these coffee beans were not cheap, and Brittany probably couldn't afford them now.
"I have a habit of drinking coffee. I bought these beans. They're imported from abroad."
When she left, she took the remaining coffee beans with her.
Isaac lowered his eyes, put down the cup, picked up the sandwich, and took a bite.
It looked ordinary, but it was unexpectedly delicious. After finishing, he wiped his mouth with a napkin and finished the last sip of coffee.
"Thanks."
"No problem."
Brittany watched Isaac leave, cleaned up the kitchen, and drove to the Dustin Group.
The Dustin Group had grown step by step through jewelry design. Initially, her mother, Julie Russell-Dustin, accompanied Robert in starting the business, but she never imagined that everything she worked hard for would be left to Gianna!
The company still didn't know about her fallout with the Dustin family.
The employees greeted her one by one.
"Ms. Dustin, you're here."
"Mhm."
Brittany walked to the door of the chairman's office, took a deep breath, and knocked.
"Come in."
Brittany pushed the door open. Robert sat in the office with a gloomy face, "Come here." "Mr. Dustin, you wanted to see me?"
"You won't be involved in this season's new products anymore. Patty will take over your role."
Robert frowned in disgust, "From today on, get out of the Dustin Group and never set foot in it again!"
Brittany's face changed dramatically, and she immediately realized that the designs she had worked so hard on for the past few months would also be left to Patrina!
"I want to take my designs with me."
"You're taking them?"
Robert stood up, "Brittany, don't forget that Patty is the design director of the Dustin Group. You're just someone who designs for her behind the scenes!"
Brittany clenched her fists, her face turning pale.
Three years ago, she and Patrina both participated in a jewelry design competition, Crown Jewel Design Challenge. However, at a crucial moment, she was exposed for plagiarism and disqualified. In her place, Patrina won the championship.
Since then, she has been designing for Patrina behind the scenes. The designs she poured her heart and soul into were all under Patrina's name!
"If you're willing to divorce and obediently marry Johnny, I can let you stay in the Dustin Group."
Robert put forward his condition. Although Brittany's design talent was undeniable, she had committed a major taboo, shameless!
If she behaved, he could still tolerate her!
"No need."
Brittany couldn't possibly agree to marry Johnny, "In that case, I'll leave first."
"Think it over. With your reputation, no design company will want you!"
Brittany ignored him and turned to leave.
Patrina and Finn were waiting outside the door.
"Sister, are you okay?" Patrina's eyes were full of concern, as if she really cared about her.
"My mother only gave birth to me, and I have no younger sister." Brittany looked coldly: "And by the way, don't appear in front of me." It's disgusting! Patrina's eyes turned red immediately.
Finn protected Patrina: "Brittany, be polite, Patty cares about you-"
Brittanny scoffed, "Stealing my boyfriend and then flaunting him in front of me is your way of caring?"
"I never liked you from the start. You were the one always sticking around." Finn was so angry he started to rant.
Brittany was the one who did him wrong in the first place.
How could she be qualified to accuse Patty?
Brittany looked at Finn. Four years of love only to be told she was throwing herself at him?
Her anger surged like a tidal wave. Brittany was about to retaliate, but Finn pushed her to the ground, "Get out of my face!"
Brittany hit the wall, a wave of unbearable pain shot through her lower back. But her heart hurt more.
The Finn who once promised under the moonlight to love her forever was now dead to her.
Robert, who was in his office, heard the commotion and rushed out. Seeing Patrina crying, he instinctively kicked Brittany! "Brittany, how dare you bully your sister! Get out!"
"Ah!"
Brittany clutched her stomach, feeling as if her insides had shifted. The heart-wrenching pain made her grit her teeth, beads of sweat covering her forehead!
She knew that Robert was eccentric, but she was also his biological daughter. When her mother was still alive, Robert used to dote on her.
Back then, he would bring her small gifts every time he returned from a business trip, play games with her, and accompany her during thunderstorms- Now, Robert had changed.
Even though she had given up on this so-called father of hers, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Wasn't she also his daughter? Why was she always the one getting abandoned?
Brittany struggled to get up, weakly saying, "Don't worry, I won't show up anymore."
She left clutching her belly, and Robert wanted to continue swearing, but was distracted by Patrina's sobs and stopped.
Stepping out of the Dustin Group, Brittany opened her mouth, and blood trickled down from the corner of her lips.
