Chapter 154

"Ms. Sullivan, hello. Apologies for the late response. I hope I'm not interrupting your work?"

Julian was being very polite, which made Brittany a little confused.

Previously, Julian had spoken to her in a similarly polite tone, but there was always a sense of distance in his words. This time, Brittany clearly noticed a difference. Julian was genuinely polite.

Such politeness left her feeling flattered. "No, you're not disturbing me. What's the matter?"

"Well, you mentioned wanting to invite Mr. Vanderbilt to dinner, but he's been very busy."

"Does he have time now?" Brittany's eyes lit up, and she eagerly interrupted Julian before he finished speaking.

Julian frowned slightly. Though Brittany was Paisley's sister, he couldn't say he was fond of her behavior. He still kept his tone polite. "Yes, Mr. Vanderbilt is traveling tomorrow, but he'll be free next week." "How about next weekend?" Brittany asked.

"That works."

After hearing the confirmation, Brittany quickly did the math in her head, eager for the weekend to come. Once the call ended, she excitedly jumped into Christina's arms. "Mom, it was Mr. Hale on the phone! He said Mr. Vanderbilt has time to have dinner with us, and it's set for next weekend!"

"My goodness!" Christina didn't expect the situation to turn around so quickly. Just yesterday, they were anxious because Dominick hadn't been responding to them. "Next weekend? That's not far off! We need to prepare right away."

"Yeah!" Brittany grabbed a small mirror, checking her face, adjusting it left and right. "Mom, did you know? The way Mr. Hale spoke to me today was way better than before!"

"Well, that's probably because Mr. Vanderbilt must have said something to him. He wouldn't treat you like that otherwise." Christina looked at Brittany with affection. "Oh my, my daughter is about to make it big, and soon she'll be living the good life with Mr. Vanderbilt."
