Twisted Ties of Love (Izabella Salotti and Brett) novel Chapter 53

Izabella breathed a sigh of relief when things quieted down outside her door. Now she knew that Brett must have gone to Kaley's room. Good thing Kaley's room was far away, otherwise, she'd have to listen to things that she shouldn't have.

With Brett gone, Izabella should have been able to sleep peacefully tonight. But she found that she just couldn't fall asleep. Her body ached everywhere and her head was uncomfortable. She got up and rummaged through her drawer to find a bottle of sleeping pills. She took two and dozed off.

Brett woke up pretty early, but when he went downstairs, he found that someone else had gotten up even earlier. The tantalizing aroma of breakfast greeted him as he walked into the dining room.

The kitchen door was a frosted sliding door. Although it was closed, he could still see a blurry figure inside.

Seeing the person in the kitchen made him feel a warmth that spread through his body, soothing every organ. Brett didn't enter the kitchen right away, but stood outside and watched the busy figure inside.

Suddenly, the door opened, and Brett found himself staring at the person inside, blurting out in surprise, "How come it's you?"

Kaley was also taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized that Brett had mistaken her for Izabella.

"I was worried that the breakfast Izabella made wouldn't suit your taste, so I decided to get up and do it myself..."

Brett realized his mistake too and felt a bit awkward and annoyed. He couldn't understand why he would mistake Kaley for Izabella recently.

With a hum, he diverted the topic with an uneasy gaze into the kitchen, "What delicious food are you making for breakfast?"

"Sandwiches and hot milk. Let me bring them out."

As Kaley turned to get the hot milk, Brett went inside and said, "Be careful, it's hot. Let me carry it. Stand back so you don't get burned."

Brett always showed gentleness and affection towards Kaley, while the malicious, vicious sides of him were reserved only for Izabella.

Kaley had prepared breakfast for just the two of them. Glancing upstairs, she asked, "Should we call Izabella down for breakfast?"
