The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel (Brittany and Isaac)
Chapter 529

Chapter 529

The news of William's hospitalization didn't stay under wraps for long. Mrs. Dillion showed up at the hospital first thing the next morning.

Brittany was jolted awake to replace Mrs. Dillion shooting her a look of disapproval. "Ever since William met you, he's been having nothing but bad luck!" Brittany was at a loss for words and could only manage a soft, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Dillion."

Mrs. Dillion was about to continue her tirade.

"Mom, enough already."

William, now awake, frowned at the disturbance.

Worrying that he might be in discomfort, Brittany walked over to his bedside and asked, "Are you feeling better? Does it still hurt?"

William shook his head and said, "I'm good. You slept on the couch last night, it must've been tough."

Mrs. Dillion rolled her eyes.

"I brought breakfast."

Mrs. Dillion handed over a thermal food container to Brittany. Opening it, Brittany found chicken porridge and some fancy pastries.

It was enough food to feed an army, probably meant to include her share as well.

"Thank you, Mrs. Dillion."

Mrs. Dillion wasn't exactly a fan of Brittany, but since William seemed so taken with her, she had to play nice.

All she responded with was a cold nod to Brittany's gratitude.

Brittany served William some porridge. He thanked her and urged her to eat more.

After Brittany had eaten her fill, she changed her clothes and was about to leave when Mrs. Dillion stopped her.

"William is really into

All these years have passed, and you..."

"Mrs. Dillion, I know how much William cares for me. Once I settle my family matters, I will give him an answer."

Brittany was aware of Mrs. Dillion's

cerns and gently said, "Thank you for not interfering with us."

Mrs. Dillion, looking into Brittany's clear eyes, felt a little uneasy, and she said, "I'm not against you. I just want my son to be happy."

"I understand. Thank you."

After Brittany left, Mrs. Dillion watched her retreating figure and began to seriously ponder.

Aside from being previously married, Brittany didn't seem to have any major flaws.

She could be a suitable daughter-in-law.

Bri-jeweled Studio finally got their financial issues sorted. The business regulators found no issues and had to back down. The studio had a fresh start.

Brittany and Kari breathed a sigh of relief. They held a meeting to discuss new products.

After the meeting, the secretary pushed the door open and said, "Ms. Dustin, Ms. Joie is here."

Ms. Jole?

Brittany instinctively wanted to refuse, but Jole had already barged in.

"Brittany, long time no see."

Joie walked up to the desk, pulled out a chair, and sat down. "How have you been these past five years?"

Brittany leaned back into her leather chair, motioning for the secretary to leave.

The secretary quickly picked up on Brittany's distaste for Joie.

Normally, Ms. Dustin would instruct her secretary to serve coffee to guests, but this time, she remained silent.

"What do you want?"

Brittany didn't bother hiding her disdain for Joie.

Five years ago, she made a deal with Joie. The person waiting for her outside the hospital should have been Lionel's people, not Leda.

After some reflection, she suspected that Joie had something to do with Leda.

She wanted to escape the hospital with Joie's help, but Joie seemed to have other plans!

"I just came to see you." Joie raised an eyebrow,

"Thanks to you, I'm still alive."

Brittany, I thought you were dead."

Brittany picked up her mug, took a sip of coffee, and then said, "Joie, it's been five years. How does it feel to be in my shoes?"

Joie's face changed instantly. "What are you talking about..."

"I never understood why you were the Salter family's favorite until I found out that I escaped with Isaac."-

Joie stood up immediately, and with her hands on the desk, she said, "Brittany, what are you talking about? I'm the one who escaped with Bro Isaac!"

How did Brittany replace out about this?

She had cleaned up all the traces.

Isaac also promised her he wouldn't tell anyone about it!

Brittany watched her panic and narrowed her eyes. "Joie, as long as you keep your nose clean and stay out of my sight, I won't reveal this secret. But if you try anything like what you did five years ago, don't blame me for not being nice!"

Jole was taken aback. She realized that Brittany had discovered what she had done five years ago.
