The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Chapter 889

“No, I had no clue before you left Imperial City. I truly liked you then.”

She really had no idea.

She had altered her plans without a care in the world about who was fleeing with
Isaac. Her sole focus was eliminating a future threat.

It wasn't until Joie came knocking that she started digging and uncovered
Brittany's identity.

Grace clutched Brittany's hand tightly, trembling. “Bri, I'm so sorry. Don't tell
Zac... don't let him despise me.”

She was at the end of her rope, coughing up blood in heavy spurts, as Brittany's
tears flowed ceaselessly.

“Bri, promise me..."

Grace couldn't hold on much longer.

Brittany covered her eyes with her hands to hide the scalding tears and, after a
long moment, nodded. “Okay.”

Grace got the answer she wanted and then everything became hazy.

Wails of grief echoed from outside the door.

Grace's hand slowly lost its warmth, and as Brittany stared at her ashen face, it
felt as if something inside her had irreparably shattered

The crying grew louder and more intense.

Brittany was nearly pushed aside as the distant relatives of the Salter family
gathered around Grace, kneeling in a sea of mourning.

Isaac, composed and cool-headed, took care of the discharge procedures and
began organizing the funeral arrangements.

Brittany gazed blankly at the sky, puzzled as to why the heavens over the
Imperial City, usually so clear and crisp, were today shrouded in gloom.

The news of Grace’s passing, once made public, caused quite a stir throughout
the city.

As a leading power woman of the Imperial City, Grace's life had been nothing
short of spectacular.

Born into a wealthy family, she was exceptionally talented. She thrived in both
her marriage and her career, yet in her fifties, she lost her husband and
daughter-in-law.

express their condolences.

Following Grace's last wishes, she was laid to rest beside Pete.

Isaac, as the eldest grandson, took charge of the funeral, making decisions on all
matters big and small.

For twenty-four hours straight, he did not sleep a wink.

Late at night.

Brittany knelt beside Isaac in front of the casket.

Isaac was still in his black dress shirt, solemn and restrained, much like his
demeanor.

Brittany took his hand, her grip tender with empathy. “It's late, you should get
some rest.”

Isaac shook his head, his voice hoarse. “I want to stay with Grandma a little
longer.”

Brittany withdrew her hand. “Grandma wouldn't want you like this.”

Isaac knelt in silence for a long while.

He had grown up under Grace’s wing, and their bond over the decades was
incredibly deep. Now that Grace was gone, his heart ached.

Brittany understood his pain. She too had lost the people closest to her.
Brittany led Isaac to the living room and poured him a cup of water, pressing it
into his

hands. “You need to rest.”

Even if just for a moment.

The body can only take so much.

Isaac stood rigidly in place, unmoving.
