Chapter 296


    Just as expected, Brittany''s frosty voice instantly rang out from behind him.


    “I...”


    Harold was at a loss for words.


    He couldn''t say anything positive to assuage her in front of Isabe, whereas a negative response


    would definitely ignite Brittany''s anger given her temper.


    Sandwiched between the both of them, Harold fell into a dilemma.


    “Shouldn''t you know better than anyone else? Back then, you treated Harold like dirt and only cared


    about your brother. When he went on to lead a better life after leaving you, you became jealous and


    demanded that he pay youpensation for breaking up. Are you here to try to salvage your


    rtionship with him? Have you forgotten what I told you back then at Fortune Real Estate?”


    Feeling indignant over how Brittany was pressuring the innocent Harold and also for Marilyn''s sake,


    Isabe held nothing back.


    She stood between the two of them andshed out at Brittany by listing every single unreasonable act


    thetter hadmitted.


    “You...”

    Brittany was rendered speechless by Isabe''s criticism.


    Upon hearing the exchange, Mandy quickly came forward. “Can both of you stop assuming? Brittany is


    here to register her marriage with her partner. Brittany, hurry up and give Eren a call to see where he


    is.”


    Back then, Isabe had dered that if Brittany was to cling to Harold again, she would take back the


    breakup fee and send men to teach them a lesson.


    And now that Benson was in James'' and the mysterious VIP''s good books, the Turners were not to be


    trifled with.


    Mandy would have already hurled a tirade of abuse at Isabe if not for that.


    Because of her mother and Isabe, Brittany had no choice but to call Eren.


    “Eren, where are you? Weren''t we supposed to meet here at nine-thirty? Do you know what time it is


    already?”


    After walking to the side, Brittany vented her frustrations to Eren, who had yet to show up.


    “Brittany, I''m almost there!”


    Shortly after the call ended, anky young man who was dressed untidily crossed the street over to


    their side.


    “I''m sorry, Brittany. I was caught in traffic. What''s going on here?”


    The young man named Eren Sinir apologized the moment he approached Brittany.


    He gave off the same obsequious vibe that Harold had shown toward Brittany back then.


    That was the reason Brittany could ept him begrudgingly, as she could see Harold''s shadow in him.


    After getting used to someone, she felt it was difficult to change.


    “If it wasn''t because you werete, my mom and I wouldn''t have had to wait for you, and I wouldn''t


    have run into my ex-boyfriend and been used by his ex-wife of trying to steal him. You should tell


    them that I''ll never go back to a kept man like him once we have broken up!” the sullen-looking Brittany


    ordered Eren while pointing her finger at Harold and Isabe.


    In reality, there were two reasons she said those words. First, she wanted Eren to stand up for her.


    Back when Harold was with her, she had never been embarrassed in public before, as he would always


    defend her honor despite being poor.


    She wanted Eren to give her the same sense of security as Harold had.


    Second, she was indirectly reminding Eren of his ce as a live-in son-inw who was financially


    dependent on them. She wanted to make a point that she was forced by her mother into the marriage


    and that he shouldn''t have any illusions of her developing feelings for him.


    When thenky Eren heard her words, a look of displeasure shed across his face.
