Chapter 561
If they stepped out, the press may swarm them like bees to honey, and that could stir up even more public
attention.
Brittany got William’s drift, but she wasn’t scared of the limelight.
Hiding then would only make them look bad.
“Let’s go. I’ve already booked a table at this restaurant.”
William didn’t expect Brittany to be so gutsy, but then it hit him. She must have really wanted to be with him since
she was not scared of all the public attention.
“Let’s go.”
Grandeur Capital.
In a spacious office.
The news was playing on a high-definition TV, with a female news anchor reporting.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“According to reports, William, the heir to the Dillion family, and Brittany are dating. Based on the information we
have, their relationship dates back to five years ago.”
The anchor on TV was detailing their love affair, yet the atmosphere in the office was ice cold.
Nathan started to sweat, not daring to even wipe his brow.
Isaac, sitting behind the desk, was stone-faced, radiating a chilling aura.
Nathan and the secretary stood in the office, not daring to make a sound.
Isaac asked, “What’s the deal with this news?”
“Mr. Salter, we’ve looked into it. The press got shots of them together. Ms. Dustin has ticked off quite a few people
over the years, and they’ve joined forces to stir up public opinion…”
No one saw it coming that Brittany and William’s relationship would be exposed, even dragging up stuff from five
years ago.
Isaac stood, casting a long shadow, “And what about the news that she and I aren’t married yet?”
“The other party’s IP address is encrypted; we’re still decoding.”
Isaac slammed his hands on the desk, his eyes cold as ice, “Nathan, I’m giving you one hour to find that person. If
you can’t, you’re out!”
Nathan knew Isaac was really ticked off.
“Mr. Salter, I will find them as soon as possible.”
“Get out.”
Nathan left with the others. Isaac punched the desk hard, leaving a crack in the expensive desk and a smear of
blood on his knuckles.
The news on TV was still playing when suddenly the scene changed.
Outside the Dillion Group building, she was still radiant and attractive, and standing in front of William, they looked
like a match made in heaven.
The reporters started flocking around. “Mr. Dillion, are you really dating Brittany?”
“Brittany, rumors say you’re not married to Mr. Salter. Do you have a child together? Is it true?”
“Brittany, did William hurt his leg saving you? Have you been together all this time? Did you leak the video from five

A barrage of questions was thrown their way, amid blinding camera flashes.
Brittany instinctively gripped William’s sleeve, and her face stiffened.
William held her hand in full view of the public.
“Everyone.” His voice was soft and, as always, gentlemanly. “Please, stay calm.”
Hearing that, the reporters immediately quieted down.
“I met Bri in college, and I’ve been fond of her ever since. Five years ago, we were just friends. In these five years,
we’ve never done anything inappropriate. In fact, we only started dating a few days ago.”
William’s face was full of smiles, and Brittany felt reassured.
“About Bri’s previous marriage, I have no right to comment. But all I want to say is, Bri never benefited from that
relationship; on the contrary, she was the victim.
Whether it’s the lost child or the cyberbullying five years ago, she’s always been the one getting hurt. Thanks for
your concern, but Bri and I are not public figures. We don’t want to take up too many public resources, so please
stop following us.”
