The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 23

She struggled to sit up, spotting Isaac by the window conducting a video call.

She tried to speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her throat burned like fire.

Hearing her sound, Isaac instantly ended the call. "You're awake."

He poured a warm glass of water and handed it to her. "drink this first."

Brittany took the glass, feeling the water soothe her inflamed throat and tongue. After a while, she croaked, "Zakky, thank you."

It was him again, to the rescue.

Isaac poured another glass of water and said, "Drink some more."

After finishing the second glass, Brittany felt completely revived. Then a pressing question popped up: "Why are you here?"

"I had an appointment with a client here, but they ditched me. Instead, I found you."

Brittany took a deep breath, attempting to get off the bed.

"The doctor said you had an overdose; you need to rest." Isaac stopped her.

Brittany shook her head. "Did you rent this room by the hour?"

"Huh?"

"The Royal Elegance Hotel is pretty pricey," Brittany said, concerned for Isaac. "Take me home instead."

The Royal Elegance Hotel was a renowned five-star hotel. It was too much for them.

Isaac put his hand on her shoulder and said, "Just rest; the company will cover it."

"Really?"

"You never told me where you work." Brittany eyed Isaac, feeling he was pulling her leg. Could a company really be that generous?

"I work in a finance institution," Isaac replied casually.
