Chapter 819
The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart (Brittany and Isaac)
Chapter 819 Graceâs voice carried an unmistakable chill.
A knot tightened in Brittanyâs chest.
âYes.â
A prolonged silence followed on the other end of the line, and Brittany even started to wonder if Grace had fainted.
Just as Brittanyâs patience was wearing thin, Grace finally spoke. âShe started it. She needs to learn her lesson.â
Grace never would have guessed that Joie, so obedient and sweet in her presence, could be up to such mischief behind her back and even get caught red-handed.
She had brought it upon herself.
After hanging up the call with Grace, Brittany knew Grace wouldnât interfere further. A glint of cold determination flashed in her eyes.
Five years ago, she had nearly perished at Ledaâs hands, with Joie stirring the pot. It was time to settle the score.
Joie spent a night in the police station, her initial arrogance slowly crumbling as she face reality.
Her agent, her company- none were willing to take her calls, let alone bail her out.
She didnât need to think hard to know how the online storm would ferment against her. Skilled at swaying public opinion, she knew too well the damage it could inflict when turned on her.
For over twenty-four hours, Joie refused even a drop of water.
A police officer brought in a bottle of water and a sandwich, âYou should eat.â
âRelease me.â
Joie was not prepared to sit and wait for doom.
The officer chuckled, âMs. Joie, your lawyer hasnât shown up yet. No oneâs processed y paperwork. Youâre not going anywhere.â
Joie clenched her fists, toppling the sandwich. âGet out!â
Whatâs so funny? Enjoying her downfall as if it were some sort of joke?
After the officer left, Joie felt a darkness descend before her eyes.
1/3 08 It felt like an eternity before the heavy door swung open.
âSomeoneâs posted your bail. Youâre free to go.
Overjoyed, Joie thought Grace had come through for her. She sprang to her feet and walked out, only to see Leda.
âWhy are you here?â
Why wasnât it Grace?
Leda couldnât help but laugh at her disappointment. âDid you really expect Grace to come to your rescue?â
Such naivety! Did she really think she was the Salter familyâs darling?
After exiting the police station, Joie felt dejected as she followed Leda into the car. Once inside, Leda wrinkled her nose at the smell of sweat emanating from Joie. âYouâve been ir there this long without freshening up?â
Flushed with shame, Joie retorted, âWhere in the police station is there a place to fresher up?â
Leda covered her nose, âYouâre finished this time.â
Joieâs headache intensified. âAre you just here to gloat?â
Of course, she knew her career was over.
There was no going back to the world of entertainment.
As Leda eyed Joieâs frustrated expression, an idea sparked. âThis mess was most likely Brittanyâs doing. Are you not planning to do something about it?â
Joieâs fists clenched. How could she not want revenge?

âI hear Isaacâs been out of town,â Leda whispered conspiratorially. âNowâs your best chance.â
Joieâs eyes narrowed, a vicious gleam flickering within. âI have my own ways.â
As the public uproar reached a peak, Joie was quietly blacklisted.
Brittany was more than pleased.
News from the station came in- Joie had been bailed out.
Upon checking, Brittany found that Leda had handled the paperwork.
Joieâs scandal had blown up too big; she couldnât stay with the company any longer resigned the next day.
2/3 Chapter 819 Grace avoided her like the plague.
After several failed attempts, Joie gave up, resigned to her fate.
It was as if Joie had vanished into thin air.
Brittany enjoyed the quiet, and before she knew it, the day of Isaacâs return to Imperial City had arrived.
