Chapter 427

The secretary had assumed Brittany would be on board as usual, since she and her husband had always been thick

as thieves.

But on that day, Brittany didn’t even glance at the secretary. She instead headed straight for her desk and casually

rifled through contracts.

An idea popped into the secretary’s head, and she carefully asked, “Ms. Dustin, did you and Mr. Salter have a spat?”

“That couldn’t be, could it?

Mr. Salter had been lunching and napping with Ms. Dustin at noon. That didn’t look like a post–fight scene” she

thought.

Brittany was always pretty reserved and didn’t air her dirty laundry in public. “No,” she replied.

She paused. Put the stuff down. You can leave now

As the secretary left the office with a puzzled look on her face, she bumped into Tina.

“What’s the deal?”

Tina saw the secretary’s worried face and thought something had gone down

Tina, Ms. Dustin seems to be in a snit. Be careful when you go in.

Tina frowned, “Ms. Dustin’s not one to mix business with personal”

Long familiar with Brittany, she knew she wouldn’t take out her mood swings on her subordinates.

“I guess, she might have had a row with Mr. Salter

The more the secretary thought about it, the odder it seemed. “They’re usually as sweet as pie, but today Ms.

Dustin was acting cold.”

Something was definitely up.

Tina clasped her head and said, “Don’t sweat it. Just get on with your work. I’m going in”

Tina pushed open the office door and saw Brittany engrossed in her work.

“Ms. Dustin.”

Brittany looked up and said, “Sn.

“Take a look, “Tina slid the design draft over to her, 1 get in touch with the client to check if there are any issues”

Brittany carefully went through the draft and replied with, “Okay”

Tina noticed her energy was not what it used to be and thought pregnancy might be taking its toll, Ms. Dustin,

everything in the studio is running smoothly You’re pregnant and should take it easy

1 know,” Brittany just didn’t want to be stuck at home under Emily’s watchful eye. She just wanted something to do.

Tina hadn’t given it much thought, but Brittany looked a bit worn out, so she got a bit curious, “Ms. Dustin, are you

feeling blue?”

Could there really be trouble in paradise?

Brittany and Tina had always been tight, and Tina was more experienced. Brittany hesitated for a moment and

asked, “What if your husband deceived you? What would you do?”

It depends on what he deceived me about”

Tina was sharp. Hearing this, she knew Isaac’s true identity had been revealed.

“If it’s a small thing, I’d just give him a piece of my mind, wouldn’t hold a grudge, Tina replied, seeing that Brittany

was willing to spill the beans, she was more sincere, “if he had a good reason for not telling me, I might get mad,

but it wouldn’t change how I feel about him.”

She continued. “But if he knowingly hid something that would damage our relationship, that’s the last straw. I might

consider calling it quits.”

Brittany listened to Tina’s words, silently categorizing Isaac’s wrongdoings in her heart.

Initially, he likely hid his true identity because he had no intention of including her in his life after their sham

marriage. That was comprehensible.

After their union, Isaac sad kept his identity a secret. That was probably because the Salter family was unstable, so

he didn’t want the Salters to know about their wedding. He acted that way mainly to protect her from being

targeted by the Salters.

That could be chalked up to being forced by circumstances.

He might not have known about the blind date with Shona in advance. He hid the truth about that to protect their

relationship.

But, him taking Jole out of the country and even hiding Jole’s calls–that was deliberate concealment.

Brittany remained silent.

Tina didn’t feel it was her place to say more. Before leaving, she said in a serious tone, “Ms. Dustin, every couple

has their own way of dealing with things. If you can’t stomach being deceived, it’s best to make a decision sooner

rather than later.”

After Tina left, Brittany started a new round of work.

After work, Hannah was already waiting outside the door.
