The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 429

Brittany yanked her hand away, "Mr. Salter, it's pretty late. You should head home."

She really didn't want to be alone with Isaac, so she turned on her heel and started to leave.

Isaac paid the bill, gave the waiter his address, and then followed her out.

Even though Brittany was pregnant, she walked pretty fast. Isaac had to practically jog to keep up with her. When he finally caught up, he grabbed her hand and said, "Slow down."

"Don't touch me!"

Brittany instinctively pulled her hand back. Her annoyance made Isaac feel uneasy.

He awkwardly pulled his hand back.

Brittany realized her reaction was a bit too strong. She pressed her lips together, then turned to get into the car.

Isaac knew she was resisting him. He took a deep breath to calm himself, then got into the car.

Brittany sat in the back seat. Maybe she was tired, she closed her eyes.

Isaac drove the car at a leisurely pace. The falling snowflakes disappeared the moment they hit the tar road.

...

At Radiant Residences.

Joie watched Isaac fussing over Brittany and couldn't help going to Grace Salter.

"Granny, I was thinking about moving in."

Grace didn't expect Joie to also want to move in. She frowned, "Why?"

"Living alone is kind of a drag." Joie tried to persuade Grace, "Now that Isaac and Bri are living here, I want to bond with Bri."

She continued, "Gran, you know, I'm an orphan. I've been on my own since I was a kid..."

Hearing this, Grace softened. Joie had a tough childhood, which made her feel sympathetic.

"Ms. Joie moving in might be a good thing."

Emily poured Grace a glass of water, "Firstly, Mrs. Salter is pregnant. There might be things she's not comfortable telling us, but she could talk to Ms. Joie."
