Chapter 67


    Brett used to find it gross, but now he was strangely looking forward to it. Since Izabe was good-


    looking, the baby from her belly couldn''t be too bad either.


    What Brett didn''t know was that his mentality had changed, the woman he used to despise had


    secretly entered his heart, like a seed buried in the soil.


    "When is Kaley getting discharged?"


    Brett was holding the steering wheel with a straight gaze, and when he heard Izabe''s question, he


    unconsciously gripped the wheel tighter.


    "She''ll be discharged in a couple of days. She''s a bit traumatized. You better apologize to her when


    she''s back, don''t upset her any further."


    Izabe found it amusing that he was so righteous, as if she owed Kaley an apology after


    everything that has happened.

    "Apologize? No way, I don''t think I did anything wrong. But to avoid further conflicts like this, I''ve


    decided to get a job so we won''t see each other that much during the day. What do you think?" she


    kindly proposed.


    Brett squinted his eyes. "The Salotti Group is gone, where are you going to work?"


    "Is there really no otherpany in the entire R City that can amodate me?"


    Izabe, once a favored and wealthydy, had now be someone that anyone could trample on


    at will. He didn''t believe that her arrogant personality could tolerate people''s finger-pointing and


    eye-rolling.


    Moreover, he didn''t want Izabe to work at all. Losing everything, she was like a flower that should


    be kept in a greenhouse for people to enjoy, no need for socializing or working.


    She should move on from the past and ept his arrangements now.


    Being so pretty, Izabe instantly caught people''s attention when she went out. When she was still


    Miss Salotti, people''s gazes were mostly polite and unobtrusive. But now, people stared at her


    without restraint, their eyes almost tearing her clothes apart.


    Imagining such a scene, Brett became even more resistant to her working outside.


    "Just stay at home, don''t you dare go outside!"


    "Brett, will you ever stop? You want me to get along with Kaley and restrict my freedom at the same


    time. Do you think the world revolves around you?"


    Izabe rested her chin on her hand, staring out the window. "Also...you don''t seem to know your


    sweetheart well enough. Once she starts, there will definitely be a second time. Either let her shut


    up, or I''ll have to beat her into shutting up."


    "You wouldn''t dare!" Brett hit the brakes suddenly, causing Izabe''s body to lurch forward.


    Thankfully she had fastened her seatbelt, otherwise this could''ve messed up her face against the


    car window.


    "Watch me!" Izabe quickly adjusted her emotions and turned to him withposure. "And don''t


    threaten me with Lucas anymore. If worsees to worst, I''ll just die. Nobody would care about my


    life anyway, so I might as well just disappear."


    Izabe''s eyes gleamed arrogantly, as if something within her had vanished.


    This woman had changed, he didn''t know if someone had told her something at the hospital, giving


    her the confidence to be so arrogant.


    But the arrogance wouldn''tst forever.


    As they stared at each other, the atmosphere in the car became frozen and tense, making it almost


    impossible to breathe.


    In the end, it was the horn of the car behind them that broke the icy silence.


    Brett hit the gas again, and the two of them remained wordless the entire ride. However, Brett had


    made up his mind. If Izabe wanted to go out, fine. Some people had to face the harsh reality


    before they realized their limits.


    Once she learned that the Felton Group was about to go bankrupt too, he wondered if she could still


    be this calm.
