The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Brittany had always been a bit of a workaholic. "The Lynette Conglomerate is my father's life's work," she explained with a mix of passion and logic. "I can't stand the idea of him stressing over business matters at his age." It seemed her words struck a chord with Eltham, who after a lengthy pause conceded, "Three days a week, that's the max."

Although it wasn't exactly what Brittany had hoped for, she decided to accept his offer gracefully.

In a gesture of appreciation, she made Eltham a cup of warm milk that evening. Eltham clearly wasn't thrilled but drank it nonetheless.

As Brittany headed upstairs with a plate of fruit, Eltham watched her go, letting out a deep sigh.

Later that night, when Brittany mentioned her plan to return to work to Yuri, he was the first to object. "No way, you're not in the condition to be working right now. I won't allow it." "What if something happens? What then?"This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Dad, I'm pregnant, not ill. I can't just sit around doing nothing. Please, let me go back. I promise I'll only work eight hours a day. You won't have to worry," Brittany pleaded. Yuri, still haunted by past events, was hesitant.

However, he couldn't resist her plea and finally agreed, "Fine, you can go back to work, but I'm arranging for a medical team to be there for you at all times. You can't say no to that." Brittany's lips twitched, finding his concern a bit over the top, but she had no choice. "Dad, don't worry, I'll take good care of myself."

After hanging up, Yuri turned to his butler, "Any news from Isaac?"

Isaac had seemingly vanished, especially after the recent scandal not involving him.

"Nothing," the butler replied.

Yuri sighed, "Well, I suppose it's not our concern anymore."

The news of Brittany's return to the Lynette Conglomerate spread like wildfire. Saskia, unable to heed Holden's warnings, stormed into his office.

"Big bro, I heard Brittany's coming back?"

"Isn't she supposed to be resting at home, being pregnant and all? Why come back to work?"

"Yes, how did you know?"

"It's all over the news," she said, visibly frustrated.

"I bet she's just scared you're getting too much attention and deliberately coming back."

Holden couldn't stand hearing such accusations. "Saskia, she's the heir. She has every right to come back to work."

Seeing her brother not

understanding her point, Saskia was livid, hitting the wall in frustration. "Bro why don't you just leave the Lynette Conglomerate?"

"You've given your all for years, and they still won't recognize you as the heir to the Lynette family. You might

as well start your own ove

She was convinced her brother had what it took to succeed on his own.

Holden dismissed her radical suggestion, "Saskia, that's nonsense!"

"How could I betray the family after all they've done for us? Don't forget, it was the Lynette family that raised us." Saskia, furious, retorted, "If Yuri really cared for me, he wouldn't have thrown me out and let me lose face!"

"That was your own doing-"

Holden's patience snapped. "Saskia, don't come to the Lynette

Conglomerate again, or I'll askel

off fi

you

financially!"

Used to living lavishly, Saskia relied on her brother's financial support since her husband's allowance was never enough. Realizing he was serious, she quickly apologized, "I'm sorry."

Holden gestured for her to leave. "Just go."

After she left, Holden called his assistant, "Keep an eye on Saskia, make sure she doesn't cause any trouble." His sister was nothing but a constant worry!

Brittany's return to the Lynette Conglomerate was like a reassurance pill, greatly stabilizing the company's morale.

On the day of her return, the company's stock prices soared!

Mrs. Walker, seeing the Lynette Conglomerate's success, was fuming. Just then, her bodyguard returned with news. "Ma'am, we've found something."

"The child Brittany's carrying might not be Eltham's!"
