The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 1018

Isaac slammed the laptop shut upon hearing the news. "What's going on?"

"Mom went on a blind date."

Daniel relayed truthfully, "Grandpa really liked him, and Mom seemed pretty into him too."

Isaac hadn't seen this coming. Brittany, fresh from her vacation, choosing to dive into the dating scene was a shocker.

"What did your mom do with him?"

"They had dinner."

"Look, you need to keep an eye on her for the next few days, make sure she doesn't get too chummy with strangers, got it?"

"But what if Mom wants to go—" Daniel hesitated.

"Then you tag along. Gives me a chance to scope out the competition."

Brittany agreeing to a blind date was beyond Isaac's wildest expectations. But then again, he figured, he had probably scared her off.

After hanging up, Isaac fired off a video call to Elijah: "We need to speed things up. I've got three months tops to go public."

Ever since his car accident, to the outside world, Isaac was as good as dead. Now, he was just one of Elijah's executives.

"Why the sudden rush?" Elijah was curious. Isaac wasn't known for being impulsive.

Isaac thought to himself, if he didn't act fast, he'd lose his wife for good!

"Just do it."

Elijah, sensing something off, did some digging and found out about Brittany’s date with Willard. Everything clicked.

"All for a woman, huh."

His assistant frowned. "He's really gone head over heels for her."

Falling off a cliff for Brittany nearly cost him his life, and yet, here he was, still completely fixated on her.

Elijah shrugged, "Guess that's love for you."

He himself felt no need for it.

...

Brittany and Willard stayed in touch, greeting each other daily. Willard was careful not to overstep, which Brittany found comforting.
