Chapter 377 (1/2)

At seven o'clock, Sophia fishy got up on time when she heard the alarm clock ticking.

First, I went to see my son next door. Yesterday, I flew to New York from Europe. Probably because of the long journey, the little guy said that he was not feeling well at night and called a private doctor to come home for examination. There was no problem, so he was relieved.

She gently touched her son's forehead, stood by the bed and looked at her contentedly for a moment, then turned to the next room to see her daughter.

Two children are everything to her.

However, she does not indulge her children.

In Europe, children were not allowed to sleep in since they were six years old, and they had to get up on time at seven every day. When I first arrived in North America, I need to get some time difference. I plan to let the two kids sleep until eight o'clock.

Parents have already got up, and the old people always have little sleep.

I prepared breakfast with my mother and discussed buying a boat for my father.

Of course, I don't need to fish any more. But after being a fisherman all my life, my father would be at a loss when he left the boat for a long time. When he was in Geneva, he would float on Lake Geneva in a boat for a day. Before he came to the United States, he asked Greenwich if there was a lake around. I was very happy to hear that it was by the sea.

In those years, there has been some estrangement between her and her parents, but over the years, she has no resentment, or there is not much resentment. It can only be said that the ideas of the two generations are different. Her parents love her and even feel sorry for her all the time. She knows that she also cares about her parents.

It's just hard to be intimate again.

After breakfast, I had two personal interviews in the morning. My family also needed to hire a full-time maid and a tutor.

She was very careful about hiring people, especially taking care of her family.

At the beginning, I was taken in by the little man. I heard that I was severely investigated. In fact, I was dissatisfied. Later, he helped him manage the house. All the maids and servants employed still had to hire a detective company to do background investigation.

After getting acquainted, she occasionally asked Janet if it was necessary. Janet told her that it was something Simon said.

A couple hired a maid. They were very nice to each other, and even lent her a lot of money. They only hoped that each other would take good care of their family and children. As a result, the maid actually had such bad deeds as gambling, stealing and so on. She also went to prison. Later, she stole things from the owner's family and paid gambling debts. She wanted to cover up and set fire to it. As a result, the hostess and two young children were burned to death.

Hearing this story, she checked the maid who took care of her parents and children for the first time. She was not sure about it, so she checked it for the second time.

OK, no problem.

It's the same this time.

Before she came to the United States, she asked Angela arenz, the head of Gucci in the United States, to help find candidates. After careful selection, she got two white women. They had no history of bad deeds, including their families. Their former employers also had a good reputation.

Because she needed to be close to her two children, she also insisted on arranging a psychological test for the tutor.

Of course, both are paid well.

However, she is not troubled by money. The little man often looks like a bad boss, but he doesn't treat her badly in terms of salary.

Yesterday, Simon and his wife were invited to have lunch at home. Towards noon, they began to prepare for it.

On Sunday, Simon and Janet were out of work and arrived at Sophia faessy's house on time at 12 o'clock. It's a formal visit. I specially brought a gift for two children, a set of Lego building blocks for the boy and a beautiful white bear puppet for the girl.

The two children were very well taught by Sophia. They didn't need to be reminded by their mother. After receiving the gift, they would thank them politely.

Janet obviously liked the two little guys. When she handed the teddy bear to Gemma, she couldn't help holding the little girl over and kissing her. She looked like a strange aunt.

After greeting, we went straight to the restaurant.

A long table, Simon and Janet sitting side by side, Sophia's family sitting side.

Sofia personally finished the lunch, sat down in the seat opposite Simon, and added, ”there's another mushroom soup to wait for a while.”

Janet noticed that opposite Daniel was a little gaudy, and asked, ”does it seem that Daniel is not feeling well

Sophia reached over to touch her son's forehead and said, ”it should be because of the jet lag. It will be fine in a few days.”

”Did you ask the doctor to check it?”

Sophia nodded: ”I called last night.”

With that, Sophia saw that her son was still in a state of low spirits. She leaned over to help the little guy put on his napkin, and then kissed him on the face before sitting down again. But she didn't pay attention to Gemma next to Daniel. Without the help of her mother, the little girl put on her napkin.

Janet looked at the situation just now, clearly some envy, but it's a pity that her stomach didn't move during this time.

I can't help but look at Simon next to me. I find that his eyes are a little dazed.It seems that they are also envious.

So he reached under the table and gently poked at the man's waist.

Simon was poked by Janet. He responded by giving a woman a look at what you poked me for. He picked up the tableware as if nothing had happened. He noticed Sophia's parents next to the little girl. He took the initiative to look over and find a topic.

Daniel and Gemma have no problem speaking English, but the old couple can only speak French.

Simon took the initiative to use French.

In a few words, Sophia's father talked about buying a boat. He was a little closer to the young man who was said to be very distinguished but would take the initiative to talk to him.

Simon is not keen on boats and yachts. He doesn't like the insecurity of drifting on the sea.

However, I still talked about this topic very skillfully. Unconsciously, I also talked about my trip to Antarctica in Australia at the end of last year.

Hearing Simon's description of Antarctic glaciers, penguins and polar day, Gemma, opposite the dining table, looks forward to it. When Simon's voice falls, she looks forward to her mother: ”Mom, can I go to the Antarctic to have a look?”

”No, you're too young now.”

”Next year, then?”

”Not next year, at least, well, until you're 18.”

The little girl frowned and thought for a moment, ”can I celebrate my 18th birthday next year?”

Sophia smiles and shakes her head: ”no, birthdays can only be passed one by one.”

Looking at the girl's disappointed expression, Janet said, ”as long as little Gemma listens to her mother, I can have people take some videos from Antarctica, so that you can see penguins and glaciers on TV, and maybe the aurora. So, it's going to be Gemma's birthday present next year. ”

The little girl looked at her mother. Seeing that she had no objection, she nodded, but immediately asked, ”what is the aurora?”
