Chapter 20 - David’s choice

This was the part Heather misunderstood most.
She believed if family conflict became painful enough, David would sell.
Instead, David said:
“I’m not deciding anything about that house while Mom and Dad are alive.”
Then:
“And I’m never letting you use my daughter to negotiate with me again.”
Heather cried.
“You’re choosing Joanna over us.”
David answered:
“I’m choosing my wife and child over manipulation.”
Not:
Over family.
May you like
Over manipulation.
Important distinction.
