The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 514

"Yup."

Nathan didn't go far; he was worried Isaac might do something rash, so he decided to stick close by, ready to swoop in and save Daniel if necessary.

There was a click.

The door to the study was closed.

From his higher position, Isaac looked down at Daniel. The sight made Daniel a bit scared; he withdrew his hand, his little face paling.

"Tell me, where did you go?"

Daniel's eyes were slightly red, "I went to find mom."

Isaac's breathing paused for a second.

"Be more specific."

Daniel didn't want to spill the beans.

If his dad found out where he'd been, he'd be toast, for sure. And if that affected his mom, how was he going to find her later?

"Daniel!"

"I went to the hotel; mom was really nice to me." Daniel quickly lowered his voice.

"She's not your mom."

Isaac said bluntly.

"But she's nice to me." Daniel didn't think he was in the wrong, "Dad, you don't like me. Mom likes me. I want to be with mom."

Isaac looked at him, and Daniel's small body gave a violent shiver.

The next second, he burst into tears.

When Daniel was born, he looked a lot like Isaac, but as he grew older, he started to look less like him and more like Brittany.

The only resemblance was their temper, which was almost identical.

Usually, he wouldn't cry even if he got spanked, but now he was all set to call a stranger mom?

Isaac took a deep breath, cursing under his breath.

That was his son.

That was his son. He couldn't hit him!

He squatted down and said, "You have a mom. Don't go around calling other women that, okay?"

Isaac was a bit awkward, his ears turning red.

...

When Brittany woke up, she instinctively looked for Daniel.

But she didn't see him. She only found a note on the desk.

"Mom, I went home. I'll come back another day. Thanks for the takeout. I love you the most! -Daniel."

Brittany didn't expect Daniel to be gone when she woke up.

Looking at the note, she felt a bit disappointed. She was planning to take Daniel out in the morning to make up for the lost years.

Brittany put down the note, freshened up, and started a video conference.

In the afternoon, she went to the bank again with Kari Malone, but things didn't go as smoothly as they had hoped.

Mr. Adams was clearly avoiding the issue. Obviously, someone was playing tricks behind the scenes.

Brittany noticed his change in attitude and asked Kari to leave first.

"Mr. Adams, you weren't like this yesterday. Can you tell me what exactly happened?"
