SWNOVELS Chapter 459
Chapter 459 A Normal Life
In fact, I felt that continuing to live in the Morris estate and facing the timed bomb that old Morris would explode at any moment was the real danger
So no matter what Joe said that day, I was very satisfied with my current life status, and in this house that belongs to me, I have found the feeling of happiness again
Actually, looking back, it's really amazing how my life changed completely in just a short year
The last time Aaron and I came to this house, he wasn't even my boyfriend. We broke up and got back together, entangled with each other, and
avoided each other, making the year feel as long
as a century
Fortunately, the final result was pleasing. We finally lived up to this year and successfully became a couple, and we also had two children
From then on, Aaron and I settled into a routine life in New York. Aaron continued to go to work at the Morris Corporation headquarters as usual, while I, on the other hand, had rare leisure time. I put aside my research and stayed at home every day, taking care of the children, treating it as a long-awaited vacation
Of course, according to the plan, I had to take Molly and Jasmin to have a great time in New York
Although they are not yet one year old, it is possible that due to my constant presence in the laboratory dealing with data during my
pregnancy, my children seem to be naturally intelligent and emotionally stable
I took them back to the neighborhood where I had lived as a child, and we strolled from the old convenience store to the familiar park. Then, on weekdays, I enjoyed the almost empty museum with my children
I would introduce everything in front of them using as simple language as possible. Actually, I don't know if they can understand, but at least I don't have to worry about them suddenly crying during the journey
And several times, when encountering beautiful scenery in the old park, Jasmin was even more excited than me, babbling and pointing at things she was interested in to share with her sister. I even started to suspect if there really existed some baby language system between them that I
couldn't understand
The days passed slowly like flowing water, and before we knew it, Aaron had been serving as the CSO of Morris Corporation for almost a month. I was also about to take my daughters to explore New York City
Cinder would occasionally join me for lunch during her free time at work. I have to say, this kind of life is much happier compared to those days when we first returned to New York and lived in Morris Manor
Even my postpartum sensitive nerves, which had become tense several times, gradually relaxed during such joyful days. I was no longer worried about anything and no longer raised my children according to any methods in parenting books
Now, all I hope is that they can be healthy and happy, just like my current state
However, it wasn't until Aaron received the task to go to the California branch and participate in decision-making that I suddenly realized that living in New York, the situation over there was obviously much more complicated than what I had experienced
During this period, Aaron has always been doing his job well, just as we had analyzed before. He never showed any desire for power, even when someone deliberately tried to flatter him. He would politely redirect them to Joe's office. I believe any experienced adult in the workplace would easily understand what Aaron meant
But we probably overlooked one thing, even if Aaron intentionally told everyone that he didn't want to compete with Joe at all, others understood his meaning, but old Morris may not necessarily agree
He placed Aaron in a position equal to Joe, perhaps still wanting to balance the two sons against each other. Aaron's actions clearly contradicted his intentions, so he decided to take action to show how much he valued Aaron
For example, this time he personally approved the document for the business trip to California, requesting Aaron to represent him fully
This undoubtedly sent a signal to everyone within the group that, regardless of whether Aaron had any intention of vying for power, he would no longer let this second son run wild as he did before, but instead entrust him with important responsibilities
However, in a forest, if there is a tree that is too upright, it will definitely be the first one to be broken when a storm comes
No one would not understand such a truth, so
when I heard that Aaron was going to California, I always felt inexplicably anxious
He also knew my worries well, so during those two weeks over there, Aaron would almost FaceTime me every day, even if it was just to share a simple dinner. As long as I received messages from him, I would feel relieved
But on the night before he was supposed to return, the phone ring that should have sounded at eight o'clock sharp did not come
