Isaac didn’t Me people poking into his private life.
“A normal person
He promptly helped Grace into the car saying, Granny less head home first.”
Grace bid her goodbyes to Sydney without suggesting a meal together.
Watching them leave Sydney left a pang of jealousy Surrienly, an idea popped into her hand, and she
decided to follow them discreetly
Inside the car.
Isaac cleared his throat. “Granny, she doesn’t know my true identity. Please don’t spill the beans ale”
Grace looked surprised. She doesn’t know who you really are?
“She thinks I’m just a regr worker so please don’t let the cat out of the bag”
If it weren’t for Grace’s insistence, he wouldn’t have agreed to introduce her to Brittany
Grace got the hint and said with a smile, 1 gat, 18y along”
Isaac feh she might have misunderstood something and wanted to rify but ended up saying nothing.
Upon arriving, Isaac helped Grace up the stairs and knocked on the door
Brittany heard the knock and said, “They’re here”
She washed her hands, took off her apron, tidied up her cathes, and then opened the door
Outside steed isane and a cheerful olddy
Grace was dressed in meat clothes of good quality. Her white har was neatly tied back, her eyes
sparkling and she innked in good spirits.

“Granny,wee. I’m Brittany, Zakky’s wife
Grace had already met Bintany and was very pleased with her. “Thank you for preparing dinner
tonight.”)
Brittany breathed a sigh of rebel and helped her into the living room.
Isaac changed his shoes and followed them in
The aroma watting from the kitchen pleased Grace even more Brittany could monk, which was
pleasant.
“Granny please sit down. Dimer will be ready scen
Sheforted Grace, poured her a cup of water, and handled it to her before heading back to the
kitchen
Grace looked around the tidy and clean house, everything was in its ce.
She gave Isaac an approving look and sad. This gris not bad.”
She despised those who chased after wealth and status and just hoped Isaac could have a good life.
Isaac didnt expect Grace to be so fond of Bittany. He regretted bringing his granny here. They would
inevitably divorce, what then?
“Granny, have some water frst go help in the kitchen”
“Alright”
Isaac entered the kitchen, and Brittany w surprised. Why are you here?
“My granny doesn i know that we-
1 got it, don’t worry, I won’t spill the beans” Brittany patted her chest
She was well aware of the situation. They were just bus ness partners, of course, they wouldnt soil the
truth
Then she remembered something: “Zakky, can you, watch the stove for me forgot to buy the let sauce
for thebread. I go get it now”
With that, Brittany was cfl.
Grace matched hur leave and said, “Zac, where’s shat going?”
“She’s going to buy the hot sauce you like for the cornbread”
“Why aren’t you going as her husband? Making it do it, you really dont have a clue!”
Grace was discontent. Isaac didn’t expect hot to defend Unitary like this, so he apologized: “Alright, I’ll
be sure to connect this.”
Outside the apartment, Sydney looked at the rundown buildings, frowning. Why would Grace visit a
ce like this?
After they went in, they hadn’te out. Sydney couldal wat any longer and decided to leave
However she caught sight of miliar figure: Brittany. She ived here too?
Briony walked into the convenience store, grabbed a bottle of hot sauce, and a battle of juice.
“Ms Dustin, are you havingbread for dinner tonight?”
The store owner liked Brittany, who wouldn’t like a good–quking young customer?

“Yes, my husband’s grandmother is visiting” Brittany answered loudly.
She pad and left with her purchases
Sydney overheard, and her face changed instantly B–ny was married? And coincidentally, her
husband’s grandmother was wisting?
Sydney didn’t dare to think about it, but she couldn’t help hersell. No, she had to know whe Bettany’s
husband was!
She took out her phone and asked Pattina, “Patty, is Briny married?”
“Yes. Johnny didn’t get his way, and he’s sill bothering us” Patrina sounded’annoyed: 1 dant know who
married Britany, but she moved out.”
Sydney was stunned.
She mumbled a few words and hung up. She decided to stake out a spot at the entrance of the
apartment, determined to wait for an oue
Meanwhile, Britany was oblivious. She camed her purchases home and busted herself for a few
minutes: “Zakky, granny,diment’s ready!
Isaac helped serve the dishes while Grace sat at the table, rying the food Brittany had prepared.
It looked delicious–a real feast.
Brittany poured juice for Grace and said, “Granny, as you re not in the best of health, this juice is fresh
give it a try”
Grace receed it and responded with a smile.
Isaac puled out a chair and sat down. “Let’s eat.”
During the meal, Grace asked many questions, when Britany answered one by one.
“Granty, Ie from a single–parent family. My mother passed away carly, and my rtionship with my
father deteriorated after he remarried, so we’re
not in touch‘
Hearing tha, Grace feta pang in her heart.
Wasn’t this excily like her grandson’s situation?
For a girl to grow up in such an environment and stilbe sa ansible was tee. Grace felt more and more
sympathy for her
‘Granny, let’s eat”
Isaac hinted at Grace to stop prying, so she reluctantly continued eating.
After dinner. Grace insisted on leaving
Brittany and Isaac saw her off downstairs
Before kruving Grace gave Brittany a beautiful box saying earnestly, “Bri. Zac has had a tought me
before, please be patient with him.”
Brittany nced at Isaac, unsure whether to ept the gilt because they weren’t really marned.
Isaac nodded indicating she should ep!
Brittany epted the fancy box carefully stowing it in her pocket. “Dont worry, Granny, 111 make sure
Zakky and I get along just fire
Isaac felt ille tickled bearing her call him “Zakky” Everyone else called him Zac, but Brittany was the
only one who called him Zakay.
The two helped Grace down the stairs, with Brittany constarily reminding her to look after her health.
Grace didn’t quite know what Brittany had misunderstood, but she kept smiling and assured her she
would take good care of herse
Isaac didn’t know what to say. They were takingpletely different topics, but somehow they were
having a st.
Not far away, Sydney was fuming at the sight of their conversation. That witch Brittany had snagged
Zacl Even Grace hade to see her!
Sydney clenched her fists, wishing she could tear Hottany to pieces!
Blissfuly unaware, Brittany helped Grace into a cab and waved them off.
She then took out the gift box and handed it to Isaac. “This is for your future wife, not me. You should
keep it”
Isaac frowned
Brittany shoved the box into his arms and walked away.
He called after her Thanks for the dinner!
At least for no Granny seemed quite happy with Bectory
“It’s the least) could do You’re putting me up: I help deal with Granny” Botany didn’t see what the big
deal was.
With Granny yure, Hittany finally had time to think about work.
She hesitated, but finally decided to ask uc for his advice. He had work experience, maybe he could
help.
Before she could open her mouth, her phone ring. Il an unknown numbet
“Brittany, are you really leaving the Dustin farrely to be with a man? Patrina’s voice came from the other
end
Bitary walked out to the balcony and said, “Who I’m with a none of your busness”
“Buntary, Theard you’re with Mr. Tucky I didn’t expect you to snare Mr. Tueley. You must’ve used your
charms, huh?” Patrina smirked “I should’ve know for loose woman like you, surely you’ve been yed
before.“v
Hnitary’s face turned red with embarrassment, shame, and anger. Patrina”
16:45
There was some noise from the other end of the line, then ad fluent voice.
Binary, you make me sick. What else do you have to offer resides your body? You’re so low, all for
mune
Finn ruthlessly macked her. With inttany being with womanizer Wesley, it’s easier for people to guess
what was up.
He used to think Anttany was heartless, but now she juil makes him want to puku
Her body was a barganing chip. Though Brittany had no love for Finn, his insults still pissed her off
Tinn, can’t you have one normal thought in your head? What business is it of yours what I do?”
With that she hung up without hesitation, tears welling up firm the hurt
Isaac watched her unmoving, and asked with a furrowed brow, “Brittany, are you okay?”
