    Chapter 665


    For the next while, Brittany’s te would be full. Not only did she need to look after Daniel, but also had


    to deal with countless dinner meetings.


    The pressure from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau was through the roof, and the coppers were


    also breathing down their necks.


    Word was that they had found a witness, and if the Dustin Group got sued, all the blood, sweat, and


    tears of these years would be down the drain.


    At yet another dinner meeting, Brittany got totally hammered again and needed her assistant to hold


    her up as they left the restaurant.


    Brittany crumpled into the back seat of the car, puking her guts out. Her assistant looked on, upset,


    “Ms. Dustin, are you okay?”


    Brittany just shook her head, indicating she was fine.


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    Her assistant sighed, patted her on the back, helped her sit up, and got her home.


    Back home, Brittany copsed on the couch and drifted off into a daze.


    No one noticed, all night.


    Not until the next day, when the nanny came, did she find Brittany still sprawled on the couch, burning


    up.


    The nanny freaked out, immediately called an ambnce, and got Brittany to the hospital.


    She was running a fever of forty degrees, almost cooking her brain.


    The doctor urgently treated her, brought down her temperature, and only then breathed a sigh of relief.


    Isaac got the news, rushed to the hospital, and seeing her so weak, his heart couldn’t help but skip a


    beat.


    “Nathan, you handle the Dustin Group’s stuff,” he said.


    He’d been waiting for Brittany to give in, but never expected that.


    She had always been stubborn, but that time it was off the charts.


    After Nathan left, Isaac sat by the window, quietly watching the world outside.


    When Brittany woke up, she felt like she’d been hit by a truck.


    Isaac poured her a cup of water, helped her sit up, and said, “Drink this.”


    Brittany didn’t ask why he was there. She just took a sip and Jeaned against the head of the bed. Her


    voice was hoarse, and she was unable to speak.


    “You really shouldn’t talk right now,” Isaac said as he put down the cup, “I’ll take care of the Dustin


    Group’s stuff; you just rest.”


    Brittany managed a weak smile and said, “I didn’t ask for your help.”


    “I know.”


    With Isaac’s help, things got sorted out pretty fast.


    The Dustin Group made it through the crisis, but Brittany had to stay in the hospital for nearly a week


    before she could get discharged.


    Once she was out, Isaac immediately took her back to the Radiant Residences, saying, “As a condition


    for helping you, you need to move back here.”


    “The kid needs aplete family. He knows better than anyone that we don’t get along.”


    Isaac found Brittany’s weakness, making it impossible for her to refuse.


    After moving back to the Radiant Residences, Brittany still insisted on staying in the guest room.


    Daniel recovered really quickly, bouncing around again in less than a week.


    Rumor had it that the family of the boy who bullied Daniel left Imperial City overnight.


    Brittany got another glimpse of Isaac’s power.


    The problem that she couldn’t solve even with her best efforts, he resolved with just a word.


    Brittany stopped fighting him and even started showing signs ofpromise.


    When Isaac noticed, he started to openly and subtly make it up to her.


    He cooked and drove her to and from work.


    As time went by, even Daniel started thinking their parents were making up.


    Brittany became gentler. She used to not even want to talk to Isaac.


    Then, when he was workingte, she brought him a cup of milk. Even though she still wore a cold


    expression, at least it showed that she had changed. Isaac was really happy.


    Even Wesley Tueley noticed the change, “I heard you and Brittany are getting along, made up yet?”


    “Not yet, but she’s willing to talk to me now.”


    Isaac thought that was a good start.


    “Well, you should thank the Palmer family. Without their trouble, you wouldn’t have had a chance to


    y hero.” Wesley, at that time was focusing on recuperating, not seeing any women, and dedicating


    all his efforts to convincing Vi Miller to divorce.


    Unfortunately, Vi firmly disagreed.


    I’ve got an eye on a project recently. Are you interested?”


    “Shoot.
