The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart (Brittany and Isaac) novel Chapter 14

Upon hearing the noise, Brittany quickly wiped away her tears and said, "I'm okay."

The call was a buzzkill for Brittany, making her lose interest in continuing the chat with Isaac, so she retreated back to her room.

Isaac watched her leave with a frown on his face.

Suddenly, the phone rang.nIt was a call from Grace.

Isaac picked up, "Granny."

"Zac, I think Brittany is a real catch. Since you've tied the knot with her, you should treat her nicely and clear up the air about your status to avoid any sticky situations."

Having met Brittany, Grace was quite impressed with her.

But Isaac didn't respond. His marriage to Brittany was nothing but a transaction; he didn't need to worry about any complications!

"Granny, you should call it a night."

Velvet Glow Jewellery.

Brittany walked into the office, hearing whispers around her.

"Sydney, congrats on landing Mr. Tueley's project!"

"Yeah, I heard Mr. Tueley was chuffed with the designs. We're all going to be riding your coattails now!"

As the flattery started to pour in, Sydney puffed out her chest with pride. Spotting Brittany, she walked over and said, "Brittany, I’m sorry about this. The project was mine, so the recognition is also mine."

Brittany clenched her bag, her knuckles turning white. "Sydney!"

"Don't get bent out of shape."

Sydney lightly patted her hand. "You've been Patrina's sidekick for years; aren't you used to it?"

Brittany's face turned red; she pushed Sydney away and stormed into Frank's office. "Frank, don't you think you owe me an explanation about the recognition?"

Frank, who was sipping his coffee, paused mid-sip, his face turning sour. "Brittany, you're new here; I don't blame you for not understanding company rules. But the decision about the recognition is final. I'll double your commission."

Frank thought that Brittany was just making a fuss about the recognition because she was underpaid.

Now that her commission had been doubled, what else could she possibly complain about?

Brittany bit her lip; she knew Frank was doing this on purpose, taking matters into his own hands!

Frank also knew that Brittany was a talent he didn't want to offend, so he softened his tone: "Sydney is under Mr. Salter; we can't offend her. Think about it: what's more important than making money?"

Brittany pushed Frank away, saying, "This is the first and last time!"

She left the office, Sydney looking smug as a bug, raising an eyebrow. No matter how pissed Brittany was, she would have to back down in the end!

Brittany returned to her seat. Anger, humiliation, dissatisfaction—all kinds of emotions were jumbled up, but she was forced to keep them under control.

Sydney, banking on the power of the Salter family, had snatched away her recognition!

The sad part was she couldn't even fight back!

William was tied up with negotiations with the consortium; he didn't have time for Brittany, and Brittany didn't want to add more to his plate as she felt it was her fault that he was stuck in this mess.

The Dustin Group

A new product was launched, but the sales were meh.

They could have used Brittany's design, but Patrina meddled with it, and the result was a flop.

Robert looked at the sales data, frowning.

The secretary, who had been by his side for years, suggested to Mr. Dustin, "From a design perspective, I think Miss Brittany's design is far superior."

When Brittany was around, she personally created all the design drafts for the entire company.

Many of the best-selling products were her designs. Even in the company's most difficult times, she helped the company tide over the crisis, getting The Dustin Group out of hot water.

However, Brittany was not given the recognition she deserved.

Hearing this, Robert said, "Don't mention that ungrateful child! She got hitched behind my back and still refuses to apologize to me!"

"Maybe you could take the initiative to talk to her?" The secretary suggested

The secretary thought that Brittany would be a better successor than Patrina.

Patrina, who was outside the door, heard these words and clenched her fists in jealousy. Everyone in the company thought she was undeserving; she had done her best. Why could they only see Brittany?
