Babel Novel
Chapter 1188
Daniel trudged downstairs, ending a call from a classmate. "Mom, they said Twila's in the hospital. Is she sick?"
Brittany was caught off guard by his mention of Twila. "You care about her?"
Daniel shook his head in annoyance. "She's a pain."
Thanks to Isaac's influence, this was the first time Daniel openly expressed disdain for someone. Brittany crouched down to his level. "Is it because of what happened recently?" "It's not just that."
"She's been trying to be my friend."
But he didn't like her.
A realization hit Brittany hard. That day she had dropped Daniel off at school, Twila must have figured out their relationship... Twila's provocation was just to get under her skin! "Daniel, I'm sorry you had to go through this."
He hesitated before speaking, "Do you want to go back to New Haven?"
Star Elementary School wasn't the right fit for Daniel anymore.
Brittany had been considering sending Daniel back to New Haven, where Aunt Hannah and Uncle Derek were, confident they could take good care of him.
Daniel caught the hint in Brittany's words, his eyes dropping. "Mom, are you sending me back there?"
Brittany took his hand. "Yes."
She tried to discuss it with Daniel as if they were friends.
"Star Elementary School isn't right for you anymore. Your dad and I will be moving back to New Haven soon. If you're willing to go back, Aunt Hannah and Uncle Derek will look after you..." "I want to!" Daniel suddenly said. "I want to go back."
He knew his parents had important things to handle, and staying here would only worry them.
Better to return to New Haven.
First, to give them peace of mind.
Second, he missed everything about New Haven.
"Really?"Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Brittany was prepared for a long discussion but didn't expect his quick agreement.
"Yeah, I want to."
"New Haven has Aunt Hannah, Uncle Derek, the butler... I can go back to my old school. I miss it all so much."
He paused, thinking of Grandpa Yuri: "But, Grandpa's in Craneville."
He didn't want to leave Yuri behind.
Brittany softened.
Just as she was about to comfort him.
"If Daniel is going back to New Haven, I'll move there too."
Yuri came downstairs, obviously having heard their conversation. "Dad"
Brittany was surprised. "I thought you couldn't bear to leave Craneville?"
Yuri had aged quite a bit lately, despite his efforts to keep well.
"I've changed my mind."
Yuri calmed Brittany. "I stayed because I couldn't let go of Lynette Enterprises."
"But now, what's most important to me is you and Daniel." Yuri sighed. "After everything, I've come to realize a lot. I want you to be happy, and I'm not comfortable with Daniel going back to New Haven alone. I want to be there, to be with Daniel."
Brittany knew how hard this decision was for Yuri. "I'm sorry, Dad."
She had promised to settle down in Craneville.
"Don't say that."
Yuri shook his head. "I know your

Whatever happened with Lynette Enterprises, he wouldn't interfere anymore.
Brittany was moved by Yuri's understanding. "Dad, thank you for understanding me."
She had been doing well in Craneville, but her heart always lingered on everything in New Haven!
