The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

"No," Brittany didn't want to tell her son that she had developed feelings for a man who was already married. Daniel seemed downcast. "Okay."

Brittany comforted her son until he fell asleep, but she herself tossed and turned, unable to find rest.

Over the past six months, she had tried to uncover things from before her amnesia. Unfortunately, all traces had been erased. No one dared to speak of Daniel's father, not even Daniel himself.

Living now in Craneville and without her prior memories, Brittany had lost touch with old friends like Kari and Hannah. Although Ysabel was close to her, the Lynette family had warned her early on not to mention anything from before Brittany's memory loss.

For six months, Brittany felt like a puppet without thoughts, throwing herself into her work. Yet, every night, she felt a void in her heart, as if something important was missing.

She got up and went downstairs to pour herself a glass of warm milk.

As she was heading back upstairs, she bumped into Holden.

"Hey."

"Why are you still up so late?" Holden frowned. "Is there something troubling you at work?"

"It's not that," Brittany shook her head. She and Holden were fairly close, and he genuinely cared about her.

"Can I ask you something?"Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Holden nodded. "Go ahead."

"Is Daniel's father... is he no longer with us?"

Everyone avoided the topic. She had to prepare for the worst.

Holden paused for a moment before asking, "Why do you think that?"

"I must have really loved him to have had his child. We must have been close. If he were still around, why hasn't he shown up?"

Holden had to admit, Brittany was smart, which was why their father valued her so much.

"Bri, if you've forgotten the past,

maybe it's best not to dredge it up. Just understand that we would never harm you. That's what's most important. It's getting late. You should rest."

Holden clearly wasn't going to provide a straight answer, but his response was enough for Brittany to draw her own conclusions. Back in her room, Brittany drank the warm milk but still couldn't sleep.

After that night, Brittany never visited that café again, and Isaac never reappeared either. She assumed he must have returned home.

As the summer heat peaked, Daniel's school let out for vacation, and he begged Brittany to take him to a resort to cool off.

Brittany, always tender-hearted towards her son, cleared her schedule for a week and planned a trip to the resort.

Before they left, Yuri heard of their plans and suggested joining them. Brittany was more than happy to agree.

The three of them arrived at the

resort, where Yuri ran into an old friend he hadn't seen in years and engaged in a hearty chat. Also

present was a man in his thirties, not particularly striking but with a distinguished demeanor.

Brittany immediately looked at Yuri.

Was he trying to set her up?

Yuri didn't hide it. "You're in your early thirties now, and all I want is for you to settle down. Daniel also needs a complete family."

Brittany hadn't expected this to be a setup.

"Dad, I'm not really thinking about marriage right now."

Brittany was honest. "All my energy is focused on my work."

That was one reason, but more importantly, she felt as though she was waiting for someone.

Hearing this, Yuri didn't press

further. "Fine, Enoch is a decent guy,

and you could try getting to know him won't arrange anything like

thi

again."
