The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 700

The leader of the group exchanged glances with the others, and their guard dropped slightly, “Turns out it’s Ms. Dustin.”

One of them pulled out a business card, “Ms. Dustin, good to see you. Five years ago, Mr. Salter hired us to clean the house once a week.”

“Today is our weekly cleaning day. We didn't expect you to be here. Our apologies.”

Brittany took the card and glanced at it. They were from a high-end housekeeping service in Imperial City. Their reputation was stellar.

“Mr. Salter?” Brittany hesitated; were they referring to Isaac?

“Yes, Mr. Isaac.”

“Ms. Dustin, since you're back, we can come back another day.”

“It’s pouring outside. It would be inconvenient for you to leave. Stay here.”

The rain would have made the journey back to Imperial City dangerous.

They hesitated for a moment, but Brittany insisted that they could clean the next day before leaving, so they agreed.

Daniel, having eaten his fill, was playing by the window when he spotted Isaac sprawled in a puddle. He sprang up, flung open the door, and rushed out into the rain.

“Daniel!”

Brittany remembered the sight of Isaac lying in the puddle and massaged her temple. She had been careless.

“Ms. Dustin, there seems to be a man lying outside…” one of the men ventured.

“Bring him in, and get Daniel cleaned up.”

Through the window, Brittany could see Daniel standing vigil over Isaac. His small face was wet with either rain or tears, looking pitiful and innocent.

She had issues with Isaac, but he was still Daniel’s father. She didn't want to damage her relationship with Daniel.

With her instructions, the men nodded, “All right.”

Brittany didn’t want to face Isaac. So, she went upstairs.
