She tossed and turned for a while before finally getting up.
After freshening up, she called her assistant to discuss her trip. She then packed her bags and headed downstairs, dragging her suitcase along.
“Ms. Dustin, where are you off to?”
Emily saw Brittany with her suitcase, thinking that she might have had an argument with Isaac and was moving out. “Ms. Dustin, did you and Mr. Salter have a fight last night?”
Brittany was confused for a second.
Her fingers clenched around the handle of her suitcase. “Did he know I had too much to drink last night?”
“Yes, Mr. Salter took care of you for a while. I thought you knew.”
Brittany’s lips curled up unnaturally. “I’m going on a business trip for a few days. Please take care of Daniel for me.”
Emily finally breathed a sigh of relief. “All right.”
Brittany left the Radiant Residences, heading straight for the airport.
She and Wesley had discussed the land deal the previous night. Although the plot was in Imperial City, it was a complex deal. She needed to meet with a few people to secure it.
Brittany was in charge of winning over those people, while Wesley was dealing with the bidding committee. Everything was going smoothly. Meanwhile, Isaac had contacted the person in charge of
the chemical plant. The other party readily agreed to meet.
Noah was younger than he had imagined, with a clean-cut look and a strong aura of competency.
They talked for a long time and finally settled the cooperation.
Brittany was on a business trip for a week, during which she almost had no contact with Isaac.
Isaac sent a few messages, but when he didn’t get a response, he stopped trying.
After finishing her work, Brittany took a night off and returned to Imperial City the next day..
Upon leaving the airport, Brittany and her assistant were still discussing the land deal.
“Ms. Dustin, Mr. Salter is here.”
Her assistant spotted the man waiting in the distance and suggested, “Maybe we should discuss this at the office in the afternoon?”
Brittany hadn’t expected Isaac to be there. Thinking of what had happened before, she replied, “You’ve worked hard this week. Go home and rest today. We’ll meet tomorrow.”
“All right.”
The assistant, aware of the tension between Brittany and Isaac, wisely took leave.
Isaac approached Brittany and took her suitcase. “You’re back. Why didn’t you tell me?”
Brittany tried to take her suitcase back but was blocked by him.
“Let’s go. You must be tired after the trip.”
Brittany had no choice but to give up.
“Why should I tell you when I’m coming back?” she thought. Besides, he knew anyway even though she didn’t tell him..
“I heard that the chemical plant land has been acquired by Grandeur Capital?”
Such a large piece of prime real estate had all of Imperial City on edge. It was undoubtedly the envy of many that it ended up in the hands of Grandeur Capital.
“Yes.” Isaac replied.
Brittany pursed her lips, and a spark of ambition flashed in her eyes. “I hear the initial investment is in the billions. That’s not a small sum.*
The location was excellent, and the plot was large. Once developed, it promised to be extremely valuable.
Isaac was a typical businessman. He seemed calm and reserved, but he had ambition. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have risked acquiring such a large piece of land.
“Do you want to ask if Grandeur Capital, having acquired the chemical plant land, still has the appetite to bid against you?” Isaac reached the car, opened the trunk, and put the suitcase in. He then turned to Brittany. “If you want that land, I can give it to you.”
“I didn’t mean that.” She didn’t need Isaac’s charity. What she wanted was to secure the land through her own abilities.
Brittany intended to sit in the backseat, but Isaac led her to the passenger seat. After buckling up, she asked, “How do you have time to come to the airport?”
He should have been busy then, considering the large piece of prime real estate he had just acquired.
Isaac closed the car door, buckled his seat belt, and rested his hand on the steering wheel. “You’re my wife. Picking you up is the least I can do.
