Brittany said with a bit of frustration, “Can you cut me some slack on the price?”
She needed to save money right now because she was looking to expand her studio.
The shopkeeper wasn’t a stranger to Brittany, and hesitated for a moment before saying, “One hundred and twenty dollars
Brittany paid up right away.
Grace was running her hand over the fabric, feeling a bit sentimental
$120 wasnt a lot for her, but she really treasured what Brittany had bought for her.
She had seen Brittany’s clothes before, and a lot of them were of high quality However, her loungewear was all about being
affordable, and a whole set wouldn’t cost more than $20.
She wouldn’t even splurge on herself, yet: was willing to buy such expensive clothes for her. How could she not cherish this?
After leaving the shop, the three of them headed home
Brittany took Grace to the bathroom, “Nana, take your time with the bath. All the toiletries are there. Be careful not to slip.”
Grace smiled kindly, ‘Don’t worry, Ill be careful.”
Even though she was advanced in years, she was stil spry
Brittany repeated her instructions a few times before she wa

haven’t had time to accompany Nana. If you have time, take her out to relax. Il cover all the expenses”
“It’s okay, she’s my Nana too. I should be the one to take her out
Brittany shook her head, “Besides you give me a lot for food expenses every month. I have money”
İsas was under a lot of stress
His job paid well, but his rent and food expenses every month amounted to a few thousand, and he also had to cover the costs
of maintaining the old house.
After all the expenses, his savings were pretty slam.
She walked into the kitchen and made a cup of coffee, 1 still have work to do tonight. You should go to bed early”
Isaac put down the bank card and went back to his room.
Grace came out after her bath and saw Brittany still working. Secing the bank card on the table, she was very satisfied.
Good, under her persuasion. Zac had handed over the bank card.
Looks like her great grandson had finally grown up!
Grace didnt disturb Enttany and went back to her room to be down leisurely
The bedsheets and blankets weren’t brand new, but they had been washed and had a faint fragrance. They felt nice to the touch
The moonlight outside the window was quietly shining on the water. Grace listened to music playing from her phone and slowly
drifted off to sleep. Brittany worked until 1 am before she finished everything. She stretched and was about to freshen up
She had given her room to Grace, but she hadn’t finished moving her things out.
While she was hesitating, Isaac walked out of his room, “You haven’t rested yet? It’s already 1 am. How are you going to work
tomorrow if you don’t get some sleep?”
“I just finished. I didn’t get my pajamas.”
Britany was thinking, can she sneak them out?
Isaac saw through her thoughts and frowned, “Nana is a light sleeper. If she wakes up, she’ll have a hard time falling asleep
again.”
“What should I do then?” Burttany was a bit anxious. If she had known, she would’ve taken her stull out earlier. Going in now
would undoubtedly wake up Nana and disturb her rest. This made her feel temble.
“You can wear my clothes.”
Isaac pointed to a shirt hanging on the balcony, “It’s now. You can wear it as pajamas.”
roded.
Isaac picked up a glass of water and went back to his room
Brittany picked up Isaac’s sleepwear and ran into the bathroom as if she had done something wrong. The shirt in her arma felt
like a hot potato, making her cheeks flush.
After taking a bath, Brittany put on isaac’s sleepwear. Her own underwear was disposable
She wore shorts underneath. Although it looked odd, it was better than not changing clothes.
She opened Isaac’s room door to see him already prepared for bed on the floor. He was sitting with his legs crossed on a small
table in front of him, clearly stilbusy with work.
“Can you sleep okay?”
1/2
She originally planned to sleep on the foar herself
“You take the bed, so Nana won’t say I’m treating you poorly”
Isaac never expected Nana would like Brittany this much.
The bed sheets and blanket had been changed. Brittany climbed onto the bed, said goodnight, and closed her eyes pretending
to sleep.
The room was so quiet that she only heard the sound of typing and faint breathing.
Brittany was pretending to sleep, but before she knew it, she had actualy fallen asleep.
Isaac finished his work and shut off his computer. He put away the table and locked up to see Brittany lying on the bed.
Because she moved quite a bit the shirt had ridden up, revealing a bit of her slim waist. Her skin was fair and clean.
He was drawn in by the sight, quickly flashing back to their first meeting. They were both still naive then, but not shy at all.
Isaac’s throat bobbed up and down. After a while, he laid down and turned over, his emotions taking a while to settle down.
