Chapter 1121
The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart (Brittany and Isaac)
Brittany was totally engrossed in the show.
Isaac, not really into the storyline, wrapped an arm around her waist, gently massaging it to ease the discomfort of her pregnancy.
After having dinner, it was already nearing ten o'clock.
An hour and a bit into their evening, Brittany finished her almond milk, and Isaac insisted she go to bed.
Just as she was about to head upstairs.
Brittany's phone rang, she thought it might be Yuri. When she saw the caller ID, she froze.
"Who is it?"
Noticing she didn't answer, Isaac looked puzzled.
"Eltham."
Eltham was a creature of habit, usually asleep by ten unless something was up.
It was eleven o'clock at night, why would he be calling?
And a video call at that!
A flicker of annoyance passed through Isaac's eyes. The thought of another man keeping tabs on his wife was more than a little infuriating.
"Answer it."
Just as Brittany was about to answer, the call ended.
Before she could question it, Eltham called again, this time audio.
Brittany picked up, "Hello?"
"Bri, I'm at your door. Got something for you. Can you come down?"
Eltham's voice was a bit hoarse, probably from drinking, and sounded unusually intimate.
Hearing him call her Bri, Isaacâs handsome face darkened.
Brittany stood up so suddenly she almost bumped into Isaac, her brows furrowed in confusion, "Why are you here so late? I thought you had a gathering tonight?"
After a brief silence, Eltham admitted, "Yeah, I did. Just... wanted to see you."
Isaac's grip on his glass of almond milk tightened, the knuckles turning white.
Brittany knew he was jealous and instinctively held his hand to quiet him.
"Eltham, I was just about to lie down. Give me a sec to change, and I'll come down."
It seemed like Eltham sighed in relief, "Okay, I'll wait."
After hanging up, Isaac pulled her into a tight embrace, "Eltham, huh? Getting cozy with our names now, are we?"
Bri?
Since when was that his to say?
Brittany could taste the jealousy in his words and quickly tried to explain, "I didn't encourage him, it's justâ"
Isaac cut her off, his lips capturing hers in a displeased kiss, "You always do this, attracting all sorts of attention."
Brittany felt wronged.
"Alright, Iâll take you home."
"But how will I get insideâ" Brittany started.
...
Eltham showed up at the Lynette Mansion late at night, causing a stir for Yuri.
He went out to greet him, "Eltham, what brings you here?"
"I came to see Bri." Eltham was holding a gift box, its contents a mystery.
Yuri's heart skipped, knowing full well Brittany hadn't come home.
How could she appear now?

ï¤Chapter 987 Eltham wasn't alone; several friends accompanied him from the gathering, Piper among them.
"Mr. Lynette, we're all here. Why isnât Ms. Lynette coming down?"
It was late, and if Brittany wasnât coming down, could it mean she wasnât home?
A flicker of triumph crossed Piperâs face.
Adults, out late, not at home â everyone knows what that implies!
Yuri's face stiffened, "Ms. Walker, what are you implying? My daughter has been home. She's been feeling unwell and retired to her room early."
Piper was determined, "Is that so?"
She didnât buy Yuriâs explanation.
"Maybe I should go check on her?"
Piper was eager to expose Brittanyâs charade!
