They still had some time so they were not in a hurry.
After the three finished eating, Horace paid the bill and followed Clara out.
“Had the car arrived?” Horace asked.
Clara was not very sure, so she checked her app for the information. Based on the location sent by the driver, it seemed that it was about to arrive.
Cars were not allowed to come in the tourist compound, so they could only walk to the parking lot.
When they reached the location, the driver should have arrived too. Perfect timing. Besides, taking a walk after dinner was also good for health. Ancient wisdom.
“Clara, are you tired?” The three of them walked hand in hand. They felt happy, peaceful, and content.
It was just the kind of life Horace wanted, but he was also worried that Clara and Neo would be worn out.
“What about you, Neo?” he lowered his head and asked Neo.
Neo was just a kid, but he was very energetic. He was singing and running all the way. It was just incredible.
“I’m fine.” Clara touched her face. She was not sweating at all.
“I’m not tired. I’m a boy. You should carry Mom. She is a girl.” After Neo said this, the whole family laughed.
Clara smiled. she realized that now Neo started to know that girls and boys were different. But she was not sure when she needed to explain further about this topic.
The family chatted and laughed, discussing where they should visit the next day.
“How about…” Clara thought for a while and found that she knew nothing of this place.
They had a very good time horse riding, and it was Horace’s idea. She thought maybe he could decide for her.
“Where do you want to go, Neo?” Horace looked at Neo and asked. Although Neo was young, Horace always asked Neo’s opinion every time.
In Horace’s view, being young did not mean that he did not understand anything.
Horace wanted his son to grow up strong and independent, so he always respected his decisions.
“I want to see those quaint buildings.” Neo had always liked ancient things.
This was fully inherited from his mother Clara, but what they like was still a little different.
Neo liked the architecture, while Clara was more into decorations
“Okay, then let’s go to the quaint buildings.” Horace was very satisfied listening to Neo’s answer.
Neo also smiled happily when he heard that his father agreed to his proposal.
Sometimes it was better for people to be more easily satisfied. If you had too many needs that no one or nothing could satisfy, that could turn into a hole in your heart.
That hole could be bigger and bigger, and eventually, suck you in.
Laura was a good example of that.
“Look, the car is coming.” As they were about to leave, they saw a car driving toward them.
“Hello, Mr. Chin?” Clara went up and asked to see if that was the car.
“Yes, I am?” The driver confirmed the identity.
“Please fasten the safety belt.” The driver reminded them as they went into the car.
“Neo, are you tired?” she asked her boy.
“No, I am happy.” He replied.
If she was not in a car, but on a bed, she could be asleep now.
“Clara, do you want to have a rest?” Horace opened his arms and motioned her to lie down in his arms.
Clara lay in Horace’s arms, closed her eyes, and planned to rest for a while.
But just when Clara was about to fall asleep, she heard Horace’s cell phone ringing.
She opened her eyes and saw that Horace answered the phone, then his expression became very serious, and even the air froze.
As a result, Clara couldn’t help shivering in the summer of May.
Horace finally finished talking on the phone call, and then looked at Clara with a solemn expression.
“What’s wrong?” Clara knew something must have happened.
She was fully awake now, and even Neo who was leaning on Horace now sat up.
What happened to Horace? What could have caused him to react like this?
“Something went wrong with the company.”
After Horace said and the center of his brows wrinkled.
Clara looked at Horace’s face and understood that it must be something tricky. Otherwise, he would not have seemed so worried.
“What happened? Could you please tell me?” Clara tried to comfort him.
Clara knew that she must act normal right now.
“The board demands that I resign and the investors want their money back.” Horace summed up the current situation in one sentence, and Clara felt a chill down her spine.
What the hell?
“I can understand that the board wants you out. But why do the investors want their money back? What money? When did we take their money?”
“The money they have invested in the stock market.” As Horace finished speaking, he suddenly felt something fishy. But he was not paying enough attention, so the idea slipped away from his mind.
“Then let’s hurry back to deal with it now. There is only Isaac in the company, and he can’t hold it much longer.” Clara asked the driver to speed up, and then took Horace’s hand, hoping to give him some strength.
“I believe there will always be a solution. Don’t worry Dad. We just need to find out what went wrong. Remember the time I fixed my favorite toy car?”
Neo just knew what to say to calm people down.
Horace felt his heart was filled with courage and confidence. There was nothing to be afraid of.
