Sherry came home battered and bruised, only to be interrogated by Elena Boulton: "What the hell happened to you?"
"I got into a fight." Sherry retorted, "What's the deal with Trattoria del Mare, mom?"
"I should be asking you."
Mr. Mack came down the stairs, looking stern. "Who did you piss off?"
"I didn't cross anyone. I just had a dispute with Brittany."
Sherry was surprised that Brittany actually got into Trattoria del Mare, and the manager personally received her.
"You pissed Brittany off?"
Mr. Mack frowned. "Are you nuts? Brittany is now the boss with Wesley backing her up. What good did it do to provoke her?"
With Brittany launching a new product and Wesley lending all-round support, it took several investigations to find out that Brittany and Wesley were partners.
Brittany's potential was being tapped. How could they give up this money-making opportunity?
Sherry, who just returned from abroad, was not aware of this. "Dad, are you saying that Brittany is now connected with Wesley?"
That's impossible. How could Brittany be connected to Wesley?
"Don't mess with Brittany for a while."
Mr. Mack paced back and forth, saying, "If I knew Brittany could turn the tide, I would never have agreed to let Finn divorce her."
The Dustin family only valued Patrina; who would have thought that the overlooked Brittany would suddenly shine? Not only did she clear her name, but she also got connected with Wesley, instantly becoming a rising designer with countless resources!
The Boulton family, since breaking off with Grandeur Capital, has been going downhill. How could they not be jealous?
Sherry and Patrina were always on good terms; hearing this made her frown.
"Dad, what's wrong with Patty? She's perfect for my brother."
"Enough," Mr. Mack scoffed. "The whole Imperial City knows about Patrina and that fool from the Field family. Why would the Boulton family want such a daughter-in-law? Brittany is the better choice; she is capable and devoted to your brother and easy to control."
Elena too regretted that for a pebble like Patrina, they had given up a pearl!
Frustrated, Sherry gritted her teeth and asked, "Isn't Brittany already married?"
