Brittany escorted Daniel out of the diner and back to the hotel.

She was restless all night long, terrified she'd wake up to news of a tourist's murder.

At the crack of dawn, Brittany shockingly realized she was fretting over a man she'd only met a few times, a man who even had a family!

This can't be happening!

Shaking off her thoughts, Brittany packed her bags and left the resort with Daniel, heading back to Craneville.

Brittany dove headfirst into her work, yet Isaac crept into her thoughts now and then. She couldn't bear the thought of falling for a married man. After much pondering, she sought out Yuri. "Dad, didn't you mention you wanted me to settle down soon?"

Yuri, thinking Brittany was still upset about the past, quickly said, "Bri, Dad didn't mean it like that. If you don't want to get married, I won't ask again. Just focus on your work." "Dad."

Brittany shook her head, her eyes brimming with sincerity. "I've thought it over for a long time. I'm not getting any younger; maybe it's time to meet some good men you approve of." Yuri was stunned. "Are you sure?"

He was genuinely surprised that Brittany would initiate the idea of blind dating.

"Yes." Brittany figured her infatuation with Isaac was due to her prolonged single status. Maybe meeting new people would help fade those feelings.
