The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 38

"Yeah, Grace was pretty antsy about it, so he tied the knot."

Even though Wesley was curious about who Isaac's bride was, and had the means to find out, he didn't bother. He knew Isaac would spill the beans when the time was right, so why go to all that trouble? Besides, if Isaac found out he was snooping around, it could stir up a hornet's nest.

A thought flitted through William's mind, but it was gone as quickly as it came. By the time he hung up the phone after making plans with Wesley, it was too late to grasp that elusive idea.

At half-past seven, Brittany asked Isaac if he was off work. Once she got the green light, she sprang into action and started prepping dinner.

The Dustin family had a thing for seafood, so she picked up a couple of recipes growing up.

As she was cooking, the front door swung open. Brittany poked her head out of the kitchen, "Zakky, you're home."

Isaac took off his shoes, "Mhm."

He was always a bit frosty, but Brittany was used to it. She shrugged it off and said, "Wash up and get ready for dinner."

Isaac walked into the kitchen, sniffing the delicious smell, "I thought you said you were a princess of the Dustin family. How come you can cook so well?"

Ever since he met Brittany, he noticed her cooking skills were top-notch.

"My mom passed away early. The Dustin family never took to me, so I moved out pretty young. I learned all this myself."

Shortly after Julie passed away, Robert married Gianna and brought along Patrina, who was half a year younger than her.

Patrina was the apple of their eye. With Gianna stirring the pot, Brittany quickly fell out of favor.

The three of them were a picture-perfect family, and Brittany was the odd one out. She couldn't stand the sight of them, so she moved out.

Hearing this, Isaac took a look at Brittany. She seemed indifferent, but her eyelashes were quivering as she spoke. Clearly, she wasn't completely unaffected.

Isaac wanted to comfort her, but Brittany turned around with a smile, "Let's eat."

After washing his hands, Isaac helped her serve the food. He looked around the table, "Anything special going on?"

Such a lavish dinner.

Brittany got up, pulled out a bottle of red wine from the cupboard, and said, "A friend gave it to me a while ago. Let’s give it a try."
