NovelEnglishBrittany pretended not to notice his gaze, remaining silent throughout.
Upon reaching the press conference venue, Eltham, holding Brittany's hand, made a grand entrance in front of the journalists.
Both were natural performers, and their apparent affection for each other had the cameras flashing non-stop.
It seemed the online speculation was accurate.
Brittany had indeed chosen Eltham.
The press conference was streamed live, and the moment Brittany and Eltham appeared, it stirred up a massive buzz.
"Can't believe Brittany actually went for Eltham. Poor Isaac nearly lost his life over her!"
"All women are fickle."
"Hey, let's not generalize. This was Brittany's mistake alone."
"Well, can you really blher? Eltham's the heir to a fortune. Without Grandeur Capital, what's Isaac got?"
"I heard Brittany suffered a severe injury and lost her memory... If that's true, her choosing Eltham isn't that surprising."
"Heree the defenders."

"It's not about defending her. | work at the Lte Conglomerate. Ms. Lte indeed lost her memory, it'smon knowledge at
ourpany. Mr. Lte even told us never to bring up Isaac, afraid it might trigger Ms. Lte."
The live chat was exploding withments as Brittany was forced to act as a happy partner alongside Eltham for the media.
With every flash of the cameras, she felt a headacheing on.
Once the press conference was over, Eltham led her away.
"You promised to visit my dad with me."
Brittany was worried Eltham might back out.
Eltham, seemingly pleased with Brittany's cooperation, chuckled, "Let's go then, to the hospital."
Brittany breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he agreed, her efforts weren't in vain.
Eltham truly seemed to be on a hospital visit, bringing along an assortment of expensive health supplements. Brittany thought to
herself that Eltham was indeed an actor through and through, able to be anyone he wished.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Brittany was escorted to her father Yuri's room.
Seeing his daughter, Yuri attempted to get out of bed.
"Dad, please stay in bed," Brittany rushed to his side, helping him, "How are you feeling?"
Yuri, showing signs of recovery, held her hand, "I'm doing quite well, and you?"
"Mr. Lte, Bri is my fiancée. I'll take good care of her," Eltham announced as he entered, his bodyguards carrying the health
supplements behind him.
Yuri’s face turned ashen at the sight of Eltham, "Why are you here?"
"Mr. Lte, Bri is your daughter, and I'm your future son-in-law. It's only right forto visit."
Eltham’s smile only made Yuri shiver.
Brittany, showing more courage, said, "Eltham, could you give us a moment alone? | want to talk to my dad."
"Of course, I'll wait outside."
Once Eltham left, Yuri turned to Brittany, "Bri, has he been troubling you?"
"Not at all."

Brittany reassured him, "Dad, focus on getting better. I'm doing fine."
"We were careless, not realizing how deep Eltham's influence ran."
Brittany had her regrets too.
"Dad, you need to rest. Let's not talk about this now."
"Bri," Yuri sighed, "I should've sent you away sooner."
If only she had been sent away earlier, she might not have ended up caught in Eltham's web.
"Running away isn't the solution," Brittany shook her head, "Don’t worry, he won't hurtfor now."
Eltham still needed her to play the part of a loving partner; he wouldn't risk harming her.
Eltham stood outside the hospital room, intimidating enough that even the nurses kept their distance.
His bodyguard stood at attention.
After waiting for about half an hour and with no sign of Brittanying out, Eltham decided to use the restroom. On his return, he
stumbled upon a little girl in patient attire, squatting at a corner.
Children usually didn't catch Eltham's interest.
