Chapter 57
She put one of the fruit plates in front of Isaac. “Fruits for dessert.”
“Thanks.”
Seeing him about to get back to work, Brittany didn’t disturb him. She sat down on the sofa, put on her headphones, and started browsing news about a recent jewelry exhibition on her tablet.
After she finished, it was only half past nine. Brittany said goodnight to Isaac after washing up and retreated to her room to rest.
Early the next morning, after a quick breakfast, Brittany headed straight for the studio.
Kari was already there. “Good morning, Brittany.”
Brittany greeted her with a smile. “Good morning.”
The sign had already been made. The studio was named – Bri–jeweled Studio. The name was taken from Brittany’s own name.
First thing in the morning, the workers brought the sign and installed it.
Brittany wasn’t exactly Miss Popularity, but having Kari around at least meant the place wasn’t completely deserted.
The studio officially opened at ten in the morning. Hannah had taken the day off to come, and she had even invited the Chester family, who brought several large baskets of flowers.
Tanya looked around the studio and was quite pleased. “Bri, you’ve picked a great location for your studio. You’ll definitely do well!”
“No doubt about it. With a location like this, Bri’s going to rake in the big bucks!”
Knowing that they were just trying to cheer her up, Brittany felt a little reassured and thanked them one by one.
In addition to the Chester family, William also came. He brought two baskets of flowers and some sunflowers, Brittany’s favorite.
“Bri, congratulations. Wishing you a thriving business and success.”
Brittany took the bouquet, “Thanks, William. Come on in.”
When Kari saw William, she leaned over to Brittany and said mysteriously. “Is this the guy you’re dating, Brittany?” Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Of course not, he’s a schoolmate from college. You must not have seen him since you came in late.” Brittany put down the bouquet, planning to put it in her office later as a feast for her eyes.
“Oh, I see.”
“William is the design director of VelvetGlow Jewellery and a distinguished graduate of Imperial.
University.”
Brittany had known since her freshman year that William was very talented. After getting to know him better, she admired him even more. He was someone she looked up to.
William knew the Chester family as well, and they all sat down and had a great chat.
Seeing William, Hannah felt even more regretful. Why hadn’t he ended up with Brittany? She walked over to Brittany and grabbed her hand. “Your husband didn’t show any interest to your studio opening?”
Weren’t they married? The husband didn’t even show up for his wife’s grand opening?
Brittany was a little disappointed that Isaac hadn’t come, but she understood that he had work. “Zakky’s really busy with work, so he couldn’t make it.”
Hannah rolled her eyes. “How busy could he be? Busier than our big boss?”
Her big boss was busy, but he’s not as busy as Bri’s husband!
“Why are you getting mad when I’m not even mad?” Brittany looked helplessly at Hannah, about to say something else.
“Hello, flower basket.”
A delivery guy was standing at the door with a huge basket of flowers. “Is Ms. Dustin here?”
“Here it is.”
Brittany guessed that the flower basket was from Isaac. After signing for it and shooing Hannah away, she opened the little card on the basket.
Sure enough, it was him.
(Good luck! – Zakky. 1
The handwriting was as sharp and cold as him.
Brittany carefully took down the card, intending to keep it as a memento, but Hannah grabbed it from her. Seeing the handwriting, she was stunned.
This handwriting… it seemed familiar?
“Hannah, what’s wrong?”
Hannah stopped her: “Don’t speak! I think I’ve seen this handwriting somewhere.”
Where had she seen it?
Her big boss‘ handwriting was almost identical to the handwriting on this card! A bold thought flashed through Hannah’s mind. The same handwriting, the same surname… Could Brittany’s husband be her big boss?
Brittany thought she was overreacting and was about to comfort her, but Hannah grabbed her wrist. “Bri, tell me right now, what’s your husband’s name?”
