Chapter 347 - Moving To Guiyang City (2/2)
”But, if I put my work on hold, what will I do? I don't want to sit at home doing nothing,” Halia said worriedly. She didn't want to stop working, law enforcement and justice had always been her biggest passions in life and she was just getting started, but she knew her father was right. Today was the best example. If Eagle had landed one single hit on her stomach, she may have lost her child before she even knew it was there.
Father Feng looked at his daughter awkwardly with a trace of hope in his eyes. He knew his daughter's passion lay elsewhere, but he had always been hopeful that she would return to run the family business one day. ”Why don't you return to Guiyang City to help me?” Father Feng asked carefully without sounding forceful. ”Natalie will be there to help you and she's pregnant too so you can watch out for each other...”
Halia listened to her father's suggestion and looked into his hopeful eyes. He had always been so supportive and understanding. As a single parent, he had sacrificed a lot for her over the years. In fact, Halia knew that a part of the reason why her father never found another partner after her mother's death was because he was so busy at work. If she had helped him a little, would he have had a little more time to enjoy his life?
Now that she was about to become a mother, it was time for her to make some sacrifices too. So, she glanced at Jackson and asked, ”Do you want to move to Guiyang City with me?”
Jackson smiled, ”I will go wherever you want to go.”
”In that case, we'll book a flight back to Guiyang City after our honeymoon,” Halia nodded at her father, gesturing that she was taking his suggestion.
A big smile appeared on Father Feng's face. With excitement, he said, ”I'll get the maids to prepare a room for you! We are going to have so much fun living together again! While you're at work, Jackson can play chess with me and we can go to the golf club and...”
Halia glanced at Jackson awkwardly. Although she loved her father, she was married now and wanted her own place with her husband. Especially if they were planning to stay in Guiyang City long term and Jackson was staying home every day. The old man was going to drive her husband crazy...
At that moment, she remembered something. ”I'll call the Captain tomorrow and I'll organize to get Coco flown to Guiyang City as well,” she said casually.
Father Feng looked at his daughter in horror as soon as she mentioned Coco. Why was that little monster coming as well? He was afraid of dogs, probably more afraid than Max, so he never owned one. But, Halia had always loved dogs, so she adopted Coco a few years after she left home. Now, he was practically a part of the family; she couldn't leave him behind.
Originally, Father Feng wanted his daughter and son-in-law to live with him. However...the dog immediately changed everything.
”But, of course, you need your own space eventually...” Father Feng suddenly said. ”You can stay here until you find a suitable place in Guiyang City. I know some realtors that can help.”
Halia secretly laughed to herself. Originally, she was a little worried about how she would reject her father, but fortunately, Coco had saved the day...
