For him, these weren't things he could just blabber about.
Not mentioning them, it can save him the pain of recalling the past.
"Alright, I'll listen to you."
Joie played the role of the obedient little sister, asking for some details on how Isaac and Brittany met.
Isaac was a guy with quite a guard up, but because he had shared hardships with Joie and she saved his grandma this time, his guard was significantly lowered.
He didn't bring up the fake marriage, only said that they fell in love over time.
Joie smiled the whole time, until eight in the evening, she urged Isaac to go home.
Isaac left.
Nathan Jarvis had been waiting for a long time when his phone buzzed.
Taking out his phone, he saw the breaking news and his face instantly changed, "Mr. Salter, Ms. Dustin is all over the news!"
"What news?"
Isaac took the phone, saw the headline, and his stern face looked as if it had been covered in frost, a chill running down his spine.
"Mr. Saliter, you need to stay calm, Ms. Dustin..."
"Drive!"
Isaac slammed the car door and the inside of the car felt like an icehouse, the chill suffocating.
Nathan silently sat in the driver's seat and started the car.
Inside the apartment--
Brittany was going through the latest news on her phone when a headline caught her eye--
#BrittanyCheatsInMarriage#
What kind of news was this?
Brittany was confused and clicked into the article.
According to the leak, Brittany and William were behaving intimately and there were even clear photos attached!
Brittany recognized at once that it was when William was helping her remove petals.
The angle of the photo was very clever, turning a perfectly normal scene into something that seemed very intimate.
The comment section was even more lively, some people even wrote a melodrama about it.
Brittany was getting a headache.
The news caused quite a stir, if Isaac saw this, he would definitely be mad!
Isaac walked past her, "I have some things to take care of tonight, you go to sleep first."
Since Brittany was pregnant, he couldn't lose his temper.
In case he scared her.
Brittany sensed something was wrong, grabbed his hand, and asked with a glint in her eyes, "What's wrong?"
He was never this cold to her.
Isaac pulled his hand back, and asked, "shouldn’t I be the one asking that question?"
Brittany's heart tightened, he knew.
"Zakky, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you...I went to a dinner last night and ran into William, he blocked a drink for me, and then we left, those photos are all fake, we didn't do anything inappropriate."
Brittany rushed to explain, but she forgot, ever since she got pregnant, Isaac didn't let her drink, even drinks with alcohol were prohibited.
Isaac's breath hitched, he picked out the key word from her explanation, and scolded her softly.
"You were drinking?"
Brittany opened her mouth, she made a slip of the tongue again.
"You're pregnant and you're drinking?" Isaac's gaze darkened, "Did you forget the situation you're in? You just came out of the hospital, do you want to go back in?"
