The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart (Brittany and Isaac) novel Chapter 740

Chapter 740 

Joie watched as Brittany threatened to escalate their argument, biting her lip in frustration. She knew her reputation couldn’t withstand any more damage. 

“Fine,” she snapped. “How much money do you want? I’ll give it to you.” 

Wasn’t it what they all wanted anyway? 

Money! 

Why did they have to act as though they were fighting for the rights of a mere assistant? 

Brittany’s face turned red out of anger. “Joie, if I cracked your head, how much would you want for it?” 

Joie was left speechless. 

It was clear to her that Brittany wasn’t putting on a show or after money. She was genuinely seeking justice for Zara. 

“Brittany, are you sure you want to fight with me over a mere assistant?” Joie asked. 

Zara instinctively clenched Brittany’s hand. After all, Joie was backed by the powerful Salter family. If this escalated, it could affect Brittany, and Zara knew she would feel guilty for the rest of her life. 

“Ms. Dustin…” 

“Joie, you messed with the wrong person!” Brittany declared, her eyes intense. “Either apologize or we’ll take legal action.” 

Joie clenched her teeth tightly, and after a long while, she begrudgingly muttered an apology. 

“Ms. Joie, it seems you don’t think you’ve done anything wrong.” Brittany was not satisfied. 

Joie bit her lip, took a deep breath, and suppressed her anger. “I’m sorry.” 

Zara pursed her lips, and Brittany took her away. 

The police, seeing that Brittany was willing to settle privately, lectured Joie before leaving. 

Joie left angrily, kicking the air in frustration. She didn’t go home, but instead headed to the Salter Manor. 

When she got close, she bought some fruits and carried them in. 

“Grandma.” 

“Why are you here?” Daniel stood on the stairs, eyeing Joie suspiciously. 

Why was the bad women here? 

Joie looked around but didn’t see Grace, and replied dismissively, “Where’s your great grandma?” 

“In the back garden.” 

Daniel had just taken a shower, smelling fresh and looking unusually well-behaved. 

But in Joie’s eyes, he was nothing but a nuisance. 

“Aren’t you with your mother?” 

Why was he here? 

Did Brittany want to take over the Salter family’s wealth and intentionally send her son back? 

Daniel walked into the kitchen and came out with a warm glass of milk. He took a few sips before looking at Joie. “This is my home. Why can’t I be 

here?” 

Grace had said that this place would always be his home. 

He held his milk and prepared to go upstairs. 

Joie didn’t like Daniel. His face was an eyesore for her. 

She walked up to him and pinched his face harshly. “You’re wrong; this isn’t your home. This is the Salter family’s home. Your mom and Isaac divorced a long time ago. You’re not part of this family!” 

Daniel’s skin was soft, and the pinch hurt, so he pushed Joie away. “Don’t touch me!”
