Timothy Dillion casually asked, "That girl, you dig her?"
William, who was drinking, suddenly choked, his handsome face mysteriously turning red.
His parents exchanged a look; it seemed like he was smitten.
"Well, if you're into her, why don't you go for it?"
William replied with a grin, "I’m going to wait a bit longer."
On one hand, Brittany had just gone through a breakup, and he didn't want to swoop in like a vulture. That would be irresponsible for both of them.
On the other hand, his job wasn't exactly solid yet, so he was worried about not being able to give Brittany a secure future. So he wanted to wait a bit longer.
Tracy Dillion felt a pang for her son, who was also curious about the girl, but William kept mum about it. They were left in the dark.
Brittany and Hannah left the hospital room, and just as they got to the parking lot, they bumped into Patrina and Finn.
Hannah cursed under her breath, "Just our luck!"
Were these two glued at the hip? They couldn't shake them off, no matter where they went!
Finn said with a poker face, "Brittany, you sure know how to play the game; even William is shielding you!"
He thought, This flirtatious woman! Not only did she seduce Wesley, but now she's also unclear with William—disgusting!
Brittany looked at Finn, her heart calm, then turned to Patrina and asked, "Where is my mom's stuff?"
"Tomorrow night, I'll personally deliver it to you."
Patrina originally planned to ruin Brittany tonight, but her plan was interrupted by William. Was she going to let it go just like that?
"I hope you'll keep your word."
Brittany got in the car, and Hannah drove off.
Finn looked extremely frustrated; he wrapped his arms around Patrina's waist and said, "Patty, you were right; Brittany is a mess; I'm not wasting my time on her!"
He didn't even dare think about how many men Brittany had flirted with during their four years together or how many times he had been cheated on!
Patrina comforted him gently, with a malicious glint in her eyes.
Back at the apartment, Brittany pushed open the door.
Isaac was standing at the kitchen doorway with a cup of coffee in his hand, saying, "You're back."
He actually didn't cook very often; most of the time he had someone cook for him.
He could have ordered takeout tonight, but for some reason he decided to cook.
"What happened tonight?"
Brittany sighed. "I bumped into an old friend; we had an argument, and my friend got injured while trying to protect me."
Brittany didn’t want to go into details. She and Isaac had a marriage of convenience; there was no need to tell him everything.
Isaac didn't push further; Nathan had already investigated her background.
At first, he suspected that Brittany knew about his identity and was intentionally getting close.
But after reviewing her basic information, he concluded that she probably didn't know about it, so the information was destroyed.
He knew nothing about her situation with Loraine.
"By the way, was there someone with you when you called me last night?"
Brittany recalled the familiar female voice and felt a bit uneasy, as if something was quietly unfolding.
