Brittany was momentarily dazed at the sight of the smile on his face.
After breakfast, William insisted on dropping Brittany off at work.
"Have you been back to the Dillion's yet?"
Brittany suddenly remembered about the Dillion family as she was about to get out of the car.
"Not yet. I'll go later." William took a water bottle out of the storage box and handed it to Brittany, "This is honey water; don't always chug down coffee."
Brittany had a habit of drinking coffee, especially when she first started her business. She used to rely on coffee to keep going.
William couldn't stand her ruining her health, so he started preparing honey water for her every day.
"Alright, I'm heading off."
After Brittany left, William received a call from the Dillion family.
Mrs. Dillion was cold as ice, "I heard you arrived last night; where have you been? Running after Brittany again?"
"Mom, I'm on my way home." William was a bit of a headache. Five years had passed, and Mrs. Dillion still wasn't fond of Brittany, always trying to set him up with someone else.
Mrs. Dillion hung up the phone without a word, clearly very unhappy with him.
When William arrived at the Dillion's, all the elders were there.
He had been abroad for many years and seldom returned to Imperial City, so the elders had missed him. William greeted everyone and faced Mrs. Dillion's steely, angry face.
"Mom, don't be mad. I'm back, aren't I?"
Mrs. Dillion snorted, "I think you just can't get away from Brittany. She doesn't even respect you. Why do you bother..."
But William cut her off, "Mom, let's not go there."
He was all smiles, seemingly oblivious to Mrs. Dillion's dissatisfaction, "Bri and I are doing great now. We'll end up together sooner or later."
Mrs. Dillion's lips were tightly pressed together. She believed her son deserved a better woman, not a divorcee!
However, Timothy Dillion could see that William was devoted to Brittany. Besides her past marriage, there was nothing wrong with her.
