The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Chapter 1161

Brittany had always been a bit of a workaholic. "The Lynette Conglomerate is my father's life's work," she explained with a mix of passion and logic. "I can't stand the idea of him stressing over business matters at his age." It seemed her words struck a chord with Eltham, who after a lengthy pause conceded, "Three days a week, that's the max."

Although it wasn't exactly what Brittany had hoped for, she decided to accept his offer gracefully.

In a gesture of appreciation, she made Eltham a cup of warm milk that evening. Eltham clearly wasn't thrilled but drank it nonetheless.

As Brittany headed upstairs with a plate of fruit, Eltham watched her go, letting out a deep sigh.

Later that night, when Brittany mentioned her plan to return to work to Yuri, he was the first to object. "No way, you're not in the condition to be working right now. I won't allow it." "What if something happens? What then?"

"Dad, I'm pregnant, not ill. I can't just sit around doing nothing. Please, let me go back. I promise I'll only work eight hours a day. You won't have to worry," Brittany pleaded. Yuri, still haunted by past events, was hesitant.

However, he couldn't resist her plea and finally agreed, "Fine, you can go back to work, but I'm arranging for a medical team to be there for you at all times. You can't say no to that." Brittany's lips twitched, finding his concern a bit over the top, but she had no choice. "Dad, don't worry, I'll take good care of myself."

After hanging up, Yuri turned to his butler, "Any news from Isaac?"

Isaac had seemingly vanished, especially after the recent scandal not involving him.

"Nothing," the butler replied.
