Brittany shook her head, grabbed a menu from the staff, and pushed it in front of Isaac, “Order whatever you want, it’s on me today!”
Isaac glanced at the menu, “Did you get your rent money?”
“How did you know?” Brittany looked surprised, then showed a number with her fingers. “Tripled.”
Isaac knew, of course. The landlord ran off, the agency refused to take responsibility, and the police were still investigating. The money was exactly what he had covered.
“Well, I won’t hold back then.”
That’s exactly what Brittany was waiting for. She patted her chest confidently, “Order whatever you want!‘
She had tens of thousands in her pocket. She could splurge on this meal!
Although Isaac said he wouldn’t hold back, he did show some restraint. He ordered three dishes he liked, then closed the menu and pushed it back to Brittany.
“Your turn.”
Brittany had already looked at the menu and chose what she liked. She then kindly reminded the waiter, “Sorry, no cilantro in any of the dishes. My husband doesn’t eat them.”
“Sure.”
The waiter was very polite and left.
Isaac looked surprised for a moment when he heard the term ‘husband.” then a hint of hidden joy passed over his face.
Holding her juice, Brittany took a sip and hinted at the man sitting across her. “My studio is about to open.”
She actually wanted to invite Isaac to the opening ceremony, but he had to work, and she couldn’t bring herself to ask him.
“Do you want me to order some flowers for you?”
He had an important meeting tomorrow and it seemed like he couldn’t get out of it. Brittany didn’t get the response she wanted and fell a bit disappointed, but then she thought, he had to prioritize his work.
“That’s not necessary, let’s just consider this as an early celebration.”
Isaac took off his jacket, stood up, and went to the restroom.
15:23
Brittany was texting Hannah, unaware of a voice from behind, “Brittany, how dare you show your face?”
Patrina stood not far away, followed by a few friends with various expressions.
Brittany put down her juice and smiled, “Is this restaurant yours?”
Did she need Patrina’s approval to come here?
Patrina was so angry she could bite. She picked up the coffee from the table and splashed it towards Brittany –
“Slap!”
“Crash!”
The sound of a crisp slap, followed by the sound of a coffee cup hitting the floor and shattering. Patrina looked at the man who suddenly appeared, stunned, then yelled, “Who are you? How dare you hit me! Are you crazy?”
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Isaac didn’t hold back his slap. He pulled Brittany closer and looked her over, “You okay?”
This was the second time already. Were Patrina and Finn like chewing gum? They just couldn’t get rid of them!
They kept coming one after another. Hadn’t they learned their lesson?
Brittany didn’t expect Isaac to take action, but she had to admit his slap was satisfying!
Patrina freaked out, “Brittany, you actually got someone to hit me, you bitch. You ruined my life!”
Isaac grabbed Patrina’s hand, applied a bit of pressure, and Patrina started crying out in pain.
“Brittany, tell him to let Patty go!”
“Yeah, a grown man hitting a woman, that’s not gentlemanly at all!”
Everyone conveniently forgot that Patrina was the one who started this!
Brittany stood behind Isaac, meeting his eyes, as if asking, should I let go?
“Brittany, tell this man to let me go, or else, I won’t let you off,” Patrina tried to threaten.
“Zakky, let her go.”
Isaac paused, not expecting Brittany to ask him to let go, feeling a bit upset. She was being bullied to this extent, was she supposed to just swallow her anger?
Reluctantly, he let go. Still, Patrina didn’t seem to understand.
“Brittany, at least you know your place. Where did this man come from? Is he your sugar baby?
Or your cheap husband?”
Patrina laughed. “And you, Brittany has been played by so many men, I advise you to stay away from her, or else-”
“Slap!”
“Slap! Slap!”
