The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

What a coincidence, the site for her inspection was less than a mile from the home she and Isaac once shared.

After wrapping up her work, it was already 10 p.m. Brittany declined the driver's offer to take her back to the hotel, choosing instead to walk slowly along the asphalt road towards the dimly lit neighborhood.

In the past few years, the Old Town area of Imperial City had undergone vigorous renovations, with most of the old apartment buildings being replaced by new ones. Except for their old neighborhood, which, despite its gray facade, exuded a unique warmth and liveliness. Unconsciously, Brittany found herself standing at the entrance of the neighborhood, feeling an odd sense of familiarity. It was as if she had been here countless times before.

"Are you talking to me?" Brittany realized he was speaking to her.

"Yes, Ms. Dustin, didn't you and Mr. Salter move away a long time ago?" Wiping the sweat from his brow, the owner continued, "What brings you back?"

Brittany caught the main point, "I used to live here?"

"Yes, Ms. Dustin, it's been years, but you're as beautiful as ever." The owner handed her some fresh fruit, "Here, Ms. Dustin, take these. Thanks for supporting our business back then."
