Brittany sent over a photo: "Hannah, can you dig up some dirt on this person? The more, the better."
Hannah was taken aback by the photo, "She looks just like you!"
Brittany sighed, rubbing her temples, "I've seen her before, but I can't remember where. Can you help me out?"
"You got it," Hannah assured her without hesitation.
After discussing the matter at hand, Hannah expressed her concern for Brittany's wellbeing, "How are things going with Mr. Salter? I heard about your engagement with Eltham. You guys aren't seriously considering...?"
Brittany dodged the question, "Hannah, it's complicated. Let's talk about it some other time."
Hannah understood Brittany had her reasons, "Bri, I'm your best friend. Whatever you need, I'm here for you."
After hanging up, Brittany leaned back in her armchair, closing her eyes to rest.
...
When Eltham learned about Twila's identity being exposed, he immediately wanted to clear things up with Brittany.
But Brittany seemed indifferent to the whole situation, which disheartened him.
Especially since Brittany appeared so nonchalant about it all.
The two had an unpleasant argument.
For several days after, Eltham didn't show up at the villa.
Brittany enjoyed the peace, taking the opportunity to visit the Lynette family home.
Yuri, putting on his chef's hat, prepared a delicious dinner, and Daniel clung to Brittany, not wanting her to leave, "Mom, I missed you."
Brittany's heart melted for her son, holding him tight, "I missed you too, sweetheart. Tell me, how's school been?"
Daniel nodded, "It's been good."
Except for Twila always bothering him, everything was fine.
After dinner at the Lynette family home, Brittany decided to stay the night.
