The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 427

The secretary had assumed Brittany would be on board as usual, since she and her husband had always been thick as thieves.

But on that day, Brittany didn't even glance at the secretary. She instead headed straight for her desk and casually rifled through contracts.

An idea popped into the secretary's head, and she carefully asked, "Ms. Dustin, did you and Mr. Salter have a spat?"

“That couldn't be, could it?

Mr. Salter had been lunching and napping with Ms. Dustin at noon. That didn't look like a post-fight scene!” she thought.

Brittany was always pretty reserved and didn't air her dirty laundry in public. "No," she replied.

She paused, "Put the stuff down. You can leave now."

As the secretary left the office with a puzzled look on her face, she bumped into Tina.

"What's the deal?"

Tina saw the secretary's worried face and thought something had gone down.

"Tina, Ms. Dustin seems to be in a snit. Be careful when you go in."

Tina frowned, "Ms. Dustin's not one to mix business with personal."

Long familiar with Brittany, she knew she wouldn't take out her mood swings on her subordinates.

"I guess, she might have had a row with Mr. Salter."

The more the secretary thought about it, the odder it seemed. "They're usually as sweet as pie, but today Ms. Dustin was acting cold."

Something was definitely up.

Tina clasped her head and said, "Don't sweat it. Just get on with your work. I'm going in."

Tina pushed open the office door and saw Brittany engrossed in her work.

"Ms. Dustin."

Brittany looked up and said, "Sit."
