The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 1015

"Daddy?"

"Yeah, Mom, Dad's actually doing great." Daniel, worried someone might snatch Brittany away, after much contemplation, decided to reveal that Dad was still alive.

"He's got some important stuff to handle, so he can't come back just yet. Don't go hanging around with other guys, okay?"

Brittany took Daniel's words as an innocent belief shielded from harsh truths, not having the heart to burst his bubble, "Okay, I promise you, sweetie."

Daniel was over the moon, "Mom, you gotta wait for Dad to come back, okay?"

"Okay."

Daniel ate slowly, and halfway through, Brittany went off to the restroom. Coming out, she caught snippets of a conversation not too far away.

"Someone's here!"

"What are you waiting for, chase them!"

Brittany panicked and bolted, only to be dragged into another suite!

Bang!

The door shut.

Brittany was pinned against the wall by a man, the thin fabric of their clothes doing little to muffle the pounding of his heart.

"You—"

"Stay still."

Isaac hadn't expected Brittany to be here, especially not to overhear forbidden secrets, and suddenly grabbed her hand.

Brittany, not expecting Isaac, instinctively leaned closer to him.

The searchers moved from room to room.

As they neared the next door, Brittany gripped Isaac's hand tightly, "Sir, they're looking for me, maybe—"
