The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel (Brittany and Isaac)

"Brittany's pregnant?"

"How did you find out?" Eltham furrowed his brow, the news of Brittany's pregnancy had been kept under wraps. How had it suddenly leaked?

"It's not just me. The whole town knows by now." The queen's face darkened. "Bring Brittany to me, now!"

Eltham hadn't anticipated this turn of events and immediately called off the procedure.

Pretending to be clueless, Brittany emerged from the operating room. "What's going on? Why the change of heart?"

Eltham stared at Brittany, as if trying to read her mind.

"What?"

"Your pregnancy has been leaked."

Eltham's gaze was piercing. "The whole town knows you're pregnant now-"

The baby couldn't be aborted now.

A heavy realization sank into Brittany. Was this the plan Isaac had mentioned?

If the truth about her child came to light... she and the royal family would be at complete odds!

"You think I did this?"

Brittany let out a scoff. "You've taken all my communication devices, and you monitor every conversation I have with my dad. You know exactly what we talk about, don't you?" Eltham also realized it was unlikely Brittany would do something this foolish.

"Let's head to the royal residence."

What troubled Eltham was how to face his mother's interrogation.

Brittany followed him, thinking if it came down to severing ties with the royal family, the worst-case scenario would be leaving Craneville.

Eltham was visibly distressed, and Brittany remained silent throughout the ride.

The air in the car was thick with tension.

Upon arriving at the royal residence, the butler stopped Brittany at the door. "The queen wishes to speak with Prince Eltham alone."

Eltham instructed the butler to take good care of Brittany before entering the residence alone.

Approaching the study, besides the queen, Piper Walker was also present.

It seemed she was the one who leaked the news of Brittany's pregnancy.

Piper couldn't bear to meet Eltham's gaze.

She couldn't just watch Brittany and Eltham walk down the aisle.

was determined to marry Ei henet

herself!

"You're here."

The queen looked displeased. "Whose child is it?"

Eltham stood firm, his gaze unyielding. "Mine."

"Yours?"

Piper's eyes widened in shock. Had Eltham lost his mind?

He actually claimed the child as his own!

"Piper, leave us!"

The queen, having learned of Brittany's pregnancy, had already investigated Brittany. Coupled with the videos and photos Piper provided of Brittany and Isaac, was evident the child wasn'to Eltham's.

Without a word, Piper quickly exited.

Alone with his mother, the queen showed a rare gentleness. "Whose child is it, truly?"

She was giving Eltham another chance.

Eltham's response was calm: "Mine."

Bang-

The queen grabbed a paperweight and hurled it at Eltham, striking him on the head and drawing blood. "Yours?"

"How could the child possibly be yours when you've known each other for such a short time?"

Eltham seemed unfazed by the pain. "If you already know, then the child is mine."

Wiping the blood from his forehead, his expression was almost serene. "Mother, care for Brittany. I

intended to end the pregnancy, but now that the whole town knows, the child will be mine from this moment forward."

Brittany belonged to him.

He wouldn't allow anyone, including his mother, to take Brittany away from him.

The queen was shaking with anger, barely able to believe her ears. "Eltham, have you lost your mind?"

"That's Isaac's child-"

"It's mine!"
