Only to see a conflicted expression on her face.
Evidently, Mindy had found the key to the problem.
It was a choice to sacrifice one of the two, their daughter’s happiness or the luxury they currently enjoyed.
There was no third option.
“What do we do now, Jon?” Mindy asked.
“What else can we do? We have two options, either we sacrifice our daughter’s happiness for everything we have now, or we give everything up and leave Capital City for Shu City in South River Province with our daughter and David. It’s a choice between the potential of reaping profits as the Chasez family’s in- laws, which means better business for you and more promotions for me, or an ordinary life in the county.”
“I…” Mindy did not know how to reply for a moment.
If she told her daughter to leave David and be with that Hanley person, she knew there was a chance her daughter would comply but also never forgive Mindy for suggesting such a thing. Mindy only had one daughter and she was reluctant to do this to her.
However, she was also reluctant to give up everything she currently had, since she had worked hard for more than half her life to get to where she was now.
She did not know what to do and what choice to make.
“How about we ask Celia what she thinks, then,” Jon suggested.
“How? If Celia learns about this, she might choose to leave David for the Chasez boy to save the family,” Mindy argued.
“It’s good to know that that’s what you think. And here I thought you were going to ignore her happiness and force her to leave David!”
“Jon! Is that what you think of me? Yeah, I might like fame and fortune, but I love my daughter more!” Mindy shouted at Jon.
“Alright, alright. I’m sorry, I was just trying to remind you,” Jon quickly apologized.
“Hmph! As if I need you to remind me of that!”
“Alright. Go call Celia down, I’ll ask her what she thinks. Don’t say anything.” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Mindy got up to call Celia.
Not too long later, she came back downstairs with Celia in tow.
“Mom! Didn’t I ask you not to wake me up again? It’s only been a few minutes and I haven’t even gotten to fall back asleep yet!” Celia complained as she walked.
“Your dad was the one who called you down. Go complain to him!”
“Dad! What’s going on? Can’t you just compile all your questions and ask them in one go?” Celia sat down and asked.
“I promise I won’t ask you any more questions again after this!”
“Ask away, then.”
“Celia, I want to know how you would feel if one day we all have to move to the county, all three of us and David. That means no more villas and luxury cars.”
“Sure! The country’s nice! They’ve got nice fresh air and I get to keep all kinds of pets!” Celia replied.
“So you really don’t care about the convenience or benefits of large cities like Capital City?”
“Dad, I’m fine with anywhere as long as the family’s together. Actually, I’m quite envious of people in rural places, how the men farm outside while the women sow at home.”
“Alright, then. Go back to sleep.”
“As if I can go back to sleep now. Mom, Dad, what’s wrong? Why are you suddenly asking me these strange questions?” Celia asked.
“It’s nothing. I just wanted to see if you were willing to suffer for love. After all, David came from a small county and you two will be returning to that county after you get married. Don’t come back crying if you can’t take it then!”
“I won’t! David and I can both work! Even if we have to go back to the county, I promise I’ll never regret it! But didn’t you say David was going to stay with you guys in Capital City yesterday?” Celia asked.
“I was just asking. I wanted to know how much you liked him.”
“Mom, Dad! So you’re acknowledging our relationship?”
“As if not acknowledging is a choice, think about how you two act around each other! Sigh, you’re already on his side and you two haven’t even gotten married yet!” Jon sighed.
“Don’t say that, Dad! I’ll always be your daughter no matter where I am!”
“Yeah, yeah, I know! I’m just saying. Go back upstairs, your mom and I need to talk.”
“Oh, okay!”
Celia went back upstairs again.
Jon said, “Let’s deal with this, then. We’ll try to leave as much as we can for them to alleviate a
s much financial pressure from them as possible.” “Yeah.” As reluctant as“Mindy was, she had no other option but to do as Jon said.
