My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) -
Chapter 1022
"Sebastian, Linda, Tina, Rainie, Dahlia, and you!" She said with a smile, "We know that you are busy with your work, so we chose Lancille Village on purpose. It won't delay your work, and we could hang out together as well. By the way, Tina's fiance will also be there. It's lively this time."
After a short pause, she asked mischievously, "Do you want to invite Hendrix to come with you?"
"There's no need!" I said faintly, "When are you guys coming over?"
"It should be soon. It will take at most an hour. Shall we have dinner together?"
I thought about it, but Hendrix said that I would have to eat with Ziglar later. After thinking about it, I said to the phone, "All right then, just get here and I'll join you guys after I'm done with work!" "Alright!"
Realizing that my clothes were dirty, I said, "Get me a set of clothes too, my clothes are stained, so I would need something to change into. Sorry for troubling you!" "No problem!"
After hanging up on the phone and entering the hotel, I asked for Hendrix's private room and was led there by the waiter.
Since most of the people had arrived, Ziglar was very happy. He held Hendrix's and Rowane's hands and casually chatted with them.
When it came to the topic of children, Ziglar said, "Come to think of it, you have been married for years now. Do you have any children?"
Rowane's face turned red, she turned shy. Hendrix was slightly stunned and looked at me.
I moved away and but still heard Hendrix's faint voice. "Grandpa, before dinner, you should drink some plum soup to cool down!"
This was obviously a strategy to change the topic. Although Ziglar was old, it was obvious what Hendrix was trying to do. He stubbornly pursued the topic.
He said, "Boy, you are already of age. We older ones can pass on anytime. In a flash, you will be in charge of all household decisions. Both of you are already around the age of thirty and have been married fo several years as well. Why would you not want to have a child?"
Rowane smiled faintly and acted on her own initiative, saying, "Master Attwood, don't be angry now, not wanting to have children is my fault, we will definitely have one in the near future. There's no rush in this!" "Both of you are already of age, why is there no rush?" Ziglar said. He looked over to the others at the table, "Am I right? They should start trying now."
Then, he looked at Hugo and said, "Mr. Lance, when you were their age, how old was your daughter?"
Hugo smiled awkwardly and said, "Master Attwood, you shouldn't say something like this. I only got married and had a child at a young age was because I was not too good at studying. I went through many hardships in order to keep my child alive. Mr. Roberts and madam are civilized youngsters, they must have their reasons for not wanting to have a child just yet. And this generation thinks differently, so of course, they have different opinions from you, Master!"
His words were also honest. Ziglar sighed and said, "Youngsters like you need to understand, we will live a lifetime only to understand certain truths about life. As people, we should be doing the right things at the right time. When others get married, you don't. When others have kids, you don't. And by the time you are my age, it will be too late. Think deeply about this."
As he said that, there was a hint of sadness in the conversation. Upon hearing all this, Hendrix said lightly, "Grandpa, I actually have a daughter, she's five years old this year!"
