Brittany was worried Isaac might get hurt. She wanted to say something, but Isaac already had her head in his arms, kissing her with a passion. Unlike his usual gentleness, it made him look like a boy who had just had an emotional outburst.
"My lips hurt," Brittany murmured, squinting her eyes.
Upon hearing her words, Isaac reigned in his emotions and let her go. "I'll take you home."
...
The news of Brittany being attacked caught the attention of the police, who issued a bulletin immediately.
Despite knowing Brittany was the victim, Loraine's fans kept attacking her relentlessly.
That afternoon, the topic was the talk of the town.
Brittany was taken back to her apartment. Isaac made her a bowl of soup.
She wasn't feeling well and didn't have an appetite, but she forced herself to finish the soup to avoid upsetting Isaac and then fell asleep.
Hannah had been waiting downstairs. When she saw Isaac, she immediately asked, "Mr. Salter, how's Bri?"
"She had some soup and then fell asleep."
Isaac got into his car. Sensing he was up to something, Hannah quickly followed. "Mr. Salter, where are you going? Can I come?"
Isaac started the car and ignored Hannah, heading directly to the Field family's mansion.
Upon reaching the mansion, Jason, who had just seen the news and was thinking of begging Isaac for mercy, was abruptly pushed away by Isaac. "Mr. Field, I've warned you not to hurt Brittany anymore."
Jason, a man of influence, appeared utterly humble in front of Isaac.
He was pushed to the ground but managed to get up, apologizing profusely. "Isaac, about this matter, we..."
Isaac didn't want to hear his excuses. He pushed Jason aside and headed straight to Loraine's room.
Hannah followed closely behind. Before she could even make it upstairs, she heard a loud bang.
The door was kicked open, followed by a scream and the sound of shattering glass.
Thinking of Isaac's wrath, Hannah rushed upstairs.
Isaac had Loraine pinned against the wall, his eyes icy cold. "Do you want to die?"
Loraine went pale and tried to play innocent. "Isaac, I don't know what you're talking about."
Isaac was furious. "Since you don't know, maybe you should go abroad."
