Chris knew that money was definitely much better for Sarah than any Statue of Liberty.
Seeing that she had really left the American dream behind, he said with a smile: "Mom, when have I ever made fun of you? You can rest assured that as long as you recuperate well in Hillsprings."
"I will definitely cash in the 500 thousand at the 1st time!"
Sarah immediately said with great enthusiasm, "amazing son-in-law! Then we have a deal! You can't renege on anything you say!"
Chris laughed: "Don't worry, I won't renege, I'll definitely give you the money before I go to America with Nora!"
"Alright!" Sarah said without hesitation, "In that case, then I will not follow you all that far to the U.S!"
Chris finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the naked eye could see that his wife, who was on the side, was also in a much more relaxed mood at this moment.
As if a hanging heart had finally been released.
Nora said to Chris with a relaxed face: "Sweetheart, since this is the case, then I will give Rachael a clear answer and tell her that I will attend this master class."
Chris nodded and smiled, "Give her a letter back, then hurry up and confirm the itinerary, I'll arrange the time, and book the air tickets."
Nora nodded repeatedly and said excitedly, "I'm going to give her a call!"
After saying that, she immediately took the phone and ran out of the house joyfully, and went to the courtyard.
A few minutes later, she came back incomparably excited and said to Chris: "Sweetheart, I've already confirmed with Rachael, we can leave at the end of the month on the 28th!"
Hearing the 28th, Chris breathed a sigh of relief, the auction was scheduled for the 25th, just enough to leave himself several days to wrap up.
So, he said without thinking, "Alright, then I'll book the ticket for the 28th, and by the way, book the hotel near the Emilon Island School of Design."
"And we'll leave on time on the 28th of this month."
"Great!" Nora happily spun in place and said excitedly, "Then I'll start packing both of our luggage tomorrow!"
……
In fact, in his heart, Chris was more or less resistant to the matter of going to the U.S.
This is mainly because, his grandpa's family is rooted in the U.S, and the family is huge.
He was afraid that after he arrived in the U.S, will be known by his grandfather's family.
Chris and grandpa's family does not have any grudges, just because, when the mother decided to marry his father.
Her family showed conflict, which is why he feels more distant from them.
Therefore, he remembered that he met with his grandparents a total of only a handful of times.
Later, his parents died, Chris was hidden in the Hillsprings orphanage by his father's loyalists.
He and his grandparents completely cut off contact, and now, nearly 20 years.
Therefore, he was even more distant from his grandparents' family in his heart and did not want to disturb their lives.
However, since going to Emilon Island School of Design is his wife's ideal in life, he could only choose to go with her in order to make her wish come true.
In his opinion, if this time to the U.S, can not have any interactions with grandparents family, naturally it is the best.
However, if the 2 sides inevitably have to produce some encounter, then when the time comes, they can only be polite and only pleasantries.
The only thing to note is not to let his wife know.
Chris is used to being alone, although not social phobia, but most social activities, itself has some resistance.
If only between relatives for the sake of pleasantries, for him will be very uncomfortable, would rather not have any dealings.
Better than everyone pretending to be polite and giving fake pleasantries to each other.
And also, Chris also has self-awareness.
He feels that he and his grandparents are already alienated.
Not to mention that after so many years, Mom is also long gone, grandparents to him are also distant.
