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 wantedto 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 tto meet sgood men you approve of." Yuri was stunned. "Are you sure?" He was genuinely surprised that Brittany would initiate the idea of blind dating.

Yuri was overjoyed. "Okay, I will make sure to pick carefully this time. There won't be a repeat of last time." Seeing the joy in Yuri's eyes, Brittany was torn between right and wrong.

Determined to go through with the blind date, Brittany quickly arranged to meet Willard. On the day, after closing a big deal, Brittany realized she was running late. She hurried to the restaurant, finding Willard already there. en.kikistories Pushing open the private dining room door, she apologized, "Sorry, work heldup a bit. Did you wait long?" Willard stood up, pulling out a chair for her. "No problem, please take a seat." Feeling a bit guilty, Brittany asked, "How long have you been waiting?" "Just got here." Willard had actually been waiting for over half an hour. He handed her the menu, "What would you like to drink, Ms. Lte?" "I'll take a look." It was Brittany's first formal blind date, and she felt a bit awkward. Noticing her difort, Willard smiled, "Actually, I've known you for a while, Ms. Lte." "Is that so?" Brittany was surprised. She hadn't met Willard before.
"Yes, back when I was working on Wall Street, I dealt with Randell professionally." "You know my brother?" Brittany was taken aback, but then it made sense. Randell Moore was a big non Wall Street, and Willard was a force to be reckoned with too.
