Chapter 660
After Jolin left, Brittany tried to find a lawyer from several law firms, but nobody wanted to take the case.
One week passed with no progress, and Brittany still hadn’t found a suitable attorney. Meanwhile, problems
cropped up in her company.
The Dustin Group, which had been previously in charge of a project, was reported by a whistleblower, attracting the
attention of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and causing the company’s stock to plummet.
Brittany had to juggle the company and studio affairs and had no time to think about the divorce.
After several all-nighters, there was still no progress from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau’s side.
When Joseph got wind of that, he stirred the pot, and a number of partners proposed to dissolve their contracts,
thrusting the Dustin Group into a financial crisis.
Brittany had given all her assets to the Dillion family before, so she was practically penniless then.
The Dustin Group was in a state of panic, and over a few days, more than ten people resigned, causing Brittany to

When William Dillion got wind of that, he rushed to the Dustin Group immediately.
Brittany’s eyes welled up slightly when she saw him.
William took out a check and said, “This is all I can give you right now. Use it.”
Brittany looked at the check, her feelings more complex than ever.
“I can’t accept this.”
William walked up to her and said, “We’re friends. You’ve helped me before. This is rightfully yours.”
Brittany had done everything she could over the past few days, but there was no progress.
She was exhausted to the core and didn’t care about anything else, leaning on William’s shoulder and saying,
“William, I’m tired.”
William knew her predicament and hugged her. “It’s okay. Things will get better.”
Everyone in Imperial City knew about Brittany’s current predicament.
Brittany knew that Isaac was doing that on purpose, trying to pressure her into submission.
But she wouldn’t back down.
Why should her life be controlled by Isaac? He wouldn’t even let her be in control of her own marriage.
After consoling Brittany for a long time and seeing her exhaustion from the past few days, will insisted on her going
home to rest.
Returning home, Brittany saw a man sitting in the living room and instinctively looked at Mia, “How did he get in?”
Mia had never seen Brittany so resolute and instinctively stepped back.
“Mia is my person.” Isaac stood up.
Mia trembled, “Ms. Dustin, I’m sorry.”
“Get out.”
Brittany didn’t expect Isaac to have planted a spy by her side.
No wonder her nanny suddenly quit when she was doing a good job.
It was his doing.
After Mia left, Brittany looked at Isaac, her eyes filled with fatigue, “You started planning everything since I came

Like processing the marriage behind her back, planting a spy by her side.
“I just wanted to start over with you.” Isaac admitted he was despicable, but he had no choice. Brittany and William
were getting closer and closer, and he didn’t have a better option.
“Do you think I would start over with you?” Brittany scoffed, “In your dreams!”
Isaac knew she had been having a hard time recently.
“You’ve been stressed lately; go rest in your room. I’ll call you when dinner’s ready.”
He removed his coat, placed it on the sofa, rolled up his sleeves, and headed for the kitchen.
Brittany couldn’t stand his current demeanor. She picked up a pillow and threw it at him, “Isaac, do you love
causing trouble? Can’t you just let me live my life in peace?”
The pillow was light and wouldn’t hurt when thrown.
However, it felt like a heavy punch to Isaac’s chest. He clenched his fists and walked into the kitchen.
Brittany kicked a chair over and stormed off.
Isaac heard the noise with his hands on the edge of the sink and didn’t speak for a long time.
