Chapter 768
Brittany came out holding breakfast. Isaac could tell she wasn’t fully recovered and stepped forward to help her. “Let me do it.”
Brittany was indeed feeling a bit weak, and she playfully glared at Isaac. “You have the nerve to say that?”
Isaac was stirred by her gaze. If it wasn’t for a meeting today, he would have given in.
After breakfast, they dropped off Daniel at his kindergarten.
Back in the car, Isaac reached out to give Brittany a massage. “Did you sleep well last night holding our son?”
“If you’d been more considerate, I wouldn’t have gone to his room.”
Isaac kissed her. “Alright, I won’t touch you tonight.”
After their reconciliation, Isaac became noticeably more affectionate.
Five years ago, he was aloof and privileged; getting him to initiate was difficult. But unexpectedly, five years later, he became more like a clingy puppy.
If he could just be a little more restrained, it would be better.
Brittany was dropped off at her studio. Just before her getting out of the car, Isaac handed her a thermal mug. “Honey water; remember to hydrate.”
“I know.”
After Brittany got out of the car, she watched Isaac leave before entering her office.
When Tina left, Brittany took over her work. Busy until noon, Brittany had lunch with a client. After finishing her business, Brittany prepared to leave.
“Ms. Dustin.” The client stopped Brittany, looking a bit strange. “I’ve recently heard some rumors, and after some thought, I decided to tell you.”
“Go on.”
“Kari, ever since she won the championship, many people want to poach her. She is indeed a rare talent. You need to be careful.”
The client was an old acquaintance of Brittany’s and didn’t want her to lose Kari, hoping she could retain Kari as much as possible.
Brittany understood his intentions. “Thank you for letting me know. But if she wants to leave, I won’t stop her.”,
Kari had the right to choose a better life.
The client didn’t quite understand. “Ms. Dustin, Kari is someone you personally groomed. Her working for others is not a profitable deal.”
“Thank you for telling me. I have to go now.”
After Brittany left, she didn’t mention it to anyone.
But those people just wouldn’t give up Kari.
As time went on, everyone in the circle knew that someone was trying to poach Kari, even people in her studio were discussing it.
“Kari, are you really going to leave?” Zara, who was close to Kari, prodded her. “It’s been the talk of the town recently. If you really want to leave, would Ms.
Dustin allow it?”
Kari was working on a design. Hearing this, she pushed her glasses up. “Leave? To where?”
“Isn’t it said that someone wants to poach you?”
“I already refused.” Kari was engrossed in her design, not taking it to heart, completely oblivious to Zara’s surprise.
“You refused?” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“Mhm.” Kari seemed to realize the seriousness of the situation. “Has this been blown up?”
“Yes, everyone is discussing it.” Zara whispered, “Ms. Dustin might know.”
Kari threw off her glasses. “Thanks for letting me know, Zara.”
While Zara was in shock, Kari had already swiftly left the room.
As she left the office, many curious eyes were cast on her. Kari walked straight to Brittany’s office.
Pushing open the door, she rushed to say, “Brittany, I don’t want to leave; don’t listen to them.”
Only after she blurted out did Kari notice that besides Brittany, there were several clients in the office, probably discussing a collaboration.
Everyone exchanged glances.
Kari felt a moment of embarrassment, but quickly recovered. “Sorry, you guys carry on.”
Kari closed the door, a little helpless.
Inside the office, Brittany turned to the clients with a smile. “As I’ve said before, Kari won’t leave. Please rest assured; the orders we discussed earlier will proceed as usual.”
