Their marriage was so rushed that they didn't even have a wedding.
He had made up his mind that, once he was done dealing with Manuel, he would have a serious talk with her, reveal his identity, and make her his wife.
By then, he would throw her a grand wedding.
Brittany's heart raced.
Whenever she attended other people's weddings, she was always filled with envy.
She too wanted to receive blessings from everyone with Isaac and announce to the world that they were married.
Now that Isaac was proposing, she was beyond touched and responded subconsciously, "Okay."
For the following days, Brittany started watching videos about wedding preparations. When Hannah noticed, she asked, "Bri, are you and Isaac getting married?"
"Maybe."
Brittany actually preferred to have the wedding after the baby was born because she loved looking good.
She didn't want to wear a wedding dress with a big belly.
"Can I be the bridesmaid?"
"Sure, you're the only bridesmaid!" Brittany agreed.
Hannah was over the moon.
For the next week, Isaac spent his time either dealing with business or being with Brittany.
Once Brittany was able to get out of bed, he took her to the obstetrics department.
It was her first prenatal check-up. Brittany lay on the bed, looking at her still-flat belly, feeling like she was dreaming.
The check-up was conducted by a female doctor who patiently applied gel to Brittany's belly before scanning it with an ultrasound probe. An image appeared.
"Brittany, your baby is very healthy."
Isaac stood by her side, holding Brittany's hand tightly, as his eyes filled with joy.
By the ninth week of her pregnancy, Brittany began experiencing morning sickness and couldn't eat anything. In just a few days, she quickly lost the weight she had gained.
Isaac tried many methods to improve Brittany's condition, but none worked and only made her vomiting worse.
By the time they were discharged from the hospital, Brittany had lost a lot of weight and looked skinny.
Isaac tried his best to make her soup, but it didn't help at all.
Isaac didn't feel safe leaving Brittany alone, so he took her back to their apartment.
They had been gone for a month, and when they returned, the flowers on the balcony were blooming and the house was kept very tidy.
Isaac gently touched Brittany's face and said softly, "Our new house just finished renovations, so we have to wait at least half a year before moving in."
It wouldn't be too late to move after the baby was born.
Brittany really liked this apartment; she smiled and said, "Once we get our year-end bonuses, we can buy this apartment."
This apartment was their first home, and she didn't want to leave.
