Chapter 56
Brittany let loose on Patrina’s face with ps from both hands, leaving Patrina dazed with the sudden
assault.
The girls standing behind Patrina were equally stunned. They had been bullying Brittany for a while
now, but this was the first time she had fought back.
Patrina, clutching her stinging face, broke down, “You bitch, how dare you hit me!”
Brittany didn’t hesitate, pping her again. “What’s wrong with hitting you? You’re so uncultured. Since
Robert isn’t here, it’s my duty as a sister to teach you some manners.”
Over the years, she had suffered in silence. But now, she was done taking in the abuse without
resistance.
“From now on, if you dare to insult me, each word you say will earn you a p.”
“Now, get lost!”
Brittany’s good mood was totally ruined. In aplete change from her usual meek demeanor, her
words were strong and decisive.
Patrina, clutching her face, didn’t dare to shed a tear. The girls behind her seemed scared too. A few of
them helped Patrina leave.
Brittany’s palm tingled from the pping. She took a deep breath and turned to Isaac, feeling guilty for
getting him into this mess, ‘Zakky, I’m sorry. I dragged you into this.”
Isaac was surprised. He had never seen this timid girl stand up for herself. His suppressed anger
began to fade.
“Sit down.”
Brittany collected herself and tried to switch the topic when the food arrived.
Outside the restaurant, Patrina realized she’d been scared off by Brittany and felt humiliated. She was
furious.
Her friends tried tofort her. “Patty, is that guy Brittany’s husband? He’s quite handsome.”
How did Brittany manage to get her hands on such a catch, first dating Finn and now married to
this hunk?
“What’s so great about him? He’s just a pretty boy.”
Patrina scoffed, “Who knows where Brittany found this man. He’s nothingpared to Finn.”
Her friends was silent.
Sure, Finn was great. But he didn’t want to marry Patrina anymore, so what was the point?.
Back at the Dustin family, Patrina couldn’t simply ept being pped like this. She hired at

private investigator to dig into Brittany’s husband but found nothing.
“I knew it! He must be a shady guy!”
Brittany really had some nerve, even having the money to keep a man!
Brittany’s studio was opening soon, and Patrina decided to prepare a special gift to ‘celebrate’ the
asion.
After they had their fill at the restaurant, Brittany got up to pay the bill. The waiter nced at Isaac,
seemingly surprised that the woman was paying.
“Miss, this way, please.”
At the cashier, the woman smiled and took the bill. The next second, she turned to Brittany.
“Congrattions, miss. You’re our 100,000th customer, and you get a 90% discount.”
“Really?”
Brittany felt like she’d just caught a pie falling from the sky. She was happy but also a bit suspicious as
she never had such good luck before.
The cashier nodded earnestly, “Yes, congrattions, miss.”
Isaac stood up, carrying her bag, waiting outside.
After Brittany paid, the staff even gave her two membership cards and warmly invited her to visit again.
When she left the restaurant, she handed one of the membership cards to Isaac, “Zakky, I’ve been so
lucky today. Here’s a membership card for you.”
“Thank you.”
Isaac was pleased. Nathan had always been efficient.
They had both driven, but Isaac got into Brittany’s car to leave.
“What about your car?”
Isaac nced at his ck car parked in the corner, “I’ll take a cab to work tomorrow morning. and
come pick it up after work.”
“Okay.”
After they left, Nathan, who had been watching from the second floor, was pleased with the oue.
The manager was puzzled, “Nathan, are those two your friends? Why didn’t you justp their meal?”
Nathan himself wasn’t sure what Isaac was up to, but he didn’t dare to ask.
“Please keep this a secret. Don’t let the cat out of the bag.”

“Sure, don’t worry.”
Back at her apartment, Brittany took out the watermelon she had bought from the fruit store. cut it in
half, put half in the fridge, and cut the other half into pieces to put on a fruit te. She also cut up a few
