No sooner had Brittany spoken than she realized she shouldn't have asked that.
They were just in it for convenience, not as a real married couple.
She paused for a bit and said, "Sorry, I was just being nosy."
Isaac hadn't processed it yet. Hearing her apology, he showed some irritation: "She's just a friend."
Brittany didn't expect her to explain.
"Dinner was great, thanks."
She stood up, tidied up the tableware, and went back to her room.
All night, Brittany kept dreaming about what happened at the Field family's dinner and the pasta Isaac made, waking up not long after falling asleep.
She wiped her face, her hand all sweaty.
She was panting heavily; it took a while for her mood to calm down, then she went into the bathroom.
After a quick rinse, she took out some ingredients from the fridge and started preparing breakfast.
Isaac got up and smelled something delicious. "Are you making soup?"
"I have a friend who's still in the hospital. I'm going to bring it there later, then go to work."
"Is his injury serious?"
"It's okay; it’s not life-threatening."
Breakfast was ready.
After they finished breakfast, Brittany went into the bathroom. When she came out, she was in a light-colored long dress with her hair pinned up and falling naturally, looking very casual.
She grabbed a new thermos and divided the soup into two parts, one for William and one for Isaac.
"You've been working hard lately; take this soup to the office."
Isaac did not refuse: "Thanks."
He left with the thermos, and Brittany followed closely, driving to the hospital.
When they got to the hospital, William was awake. She walked up to the bedside and put down the thermos: "William, I made some soup; you can have some later."
"Okay."
