Brittany was pregnant, and it was his child.
He couldn't just stand by and watch Brittany enter into an arranged marriage with the Elthams.
He had to reveal his true identity to stand a chance against the Craneville royalty.
“What's going on with you?”
Elijah thought it was about Brittany's arranged marriage. “If it's about Brittany marrying into the Eltham family, don't sweat it. The
royal engagement isn’t set in stone yet, and even if it were, engagements can be broken.”
Isaac was nomittal. “That's part of it.”
“Is there something else?”
“Nyour price, and it's yours,” Isaac said with a furrowed brow. “Consider it a favor owed.”
After Isaac left, Elijah was filled with questions.
“Find out where he's been lately. | need to know what made him change his mind.”
Isaac was determined to end their partnership, handing over all the documents to Elijah.
On the surface, Elijah agreed, but he still wanted to maintain their alliance.

Isaac reluctantly agreed.
He arranged for Nathan to take Brittany to a private clinic for a check-up.
The doctor conducted a thorough examination and confirmed Brittany was pregnant.
“Ms. Lte, congratulations, you're expecting.”
The doctor recognized Brittany. Wasn't she engaged to Prince Eltham? How could she be pregnant?
Isaac wrapped an arm around Brittany, gently massaging her back to alleviate her difort.
“How far along?”
“Based on the examination, about two months.”
Isaac nodded. “Her morning sickness has been quite severe. Please take good care of her, and keep this matter strictly
confidential.”
The doctor, well-versed in the secrets of the elite, nodded in agreement.
Leaving the clinic, Isaac helped Brittany into the car and buckled her seatbelt. “I bought a villa near the Lte Mansion. I'm
moving in today. I'lle to see you every evening. If you need anything, I'll be there.”
Brittany was taken aback by his gesture. “What about your partnership with Elijah?”
“It's over.”
Brittany mattered more.
Brittany nodded, her mind weighed down by her engagement. “The royal family won't budge. | haven't figured out what to do yet
“Don’t worry, I'll handle it.”
Isaac squeezed her hand gently. “Go hand talk to your father. Take a break for now. Once you're three months along, we can
think about work.”
“Okay.”
Isaac dropped Brittany off at her place and had Nathan pack his belongings, officially moving into the villa.
Elijah’s people had been tailing him and saw him and Brittany at the clinic. They hesitated to probe further, fearing they might tip
him off.
So, they reported back to Elijah.
“He and Ms. Lte went to the clinic for a full check-up. The results are still unknown.”
Elijah narrowed his eyes, suspecting Brittany might be the pivot in this whole situation.

“Understood.”
Brittany requested stoff, which Yuri gladly granted.
She stepped back from her duties, focusing on resting at home.
The butler went out of his way to prepare nutritious meals, hoping to help Brittany gain sweight, but to no avail.
Brittany's morning sickness gradually improved, but she developed a penchant for sleeping and craving sour foods.
She could sleep for over ten hours a day and her appetite for sour foods knew no bounds.
Yuri initially didn’t notice.
He was too caught up in work.
It wasn’t until he chearly one day to the Lte Mansion.
“The young lady has been sleeping a lot lately. She hasn'te downstairs all day!”
“And that’s not all; she’s been really into sour foods... I'm starting to think she might be pregnant!”
“How could that be? The young lady has been hall this time, and she hasn't spent a night away from Prince Eltham. How could
she be pregnant?”
“It's not my place to speculate, but with all the sleeping and craving for sour foods...”
