Chapter 1351 What Should Vivian Do If They All Leave
Sebastian did not agree to it on the spot as he needed to consider two things—firstly, Ian’s willingness to go there; secondly, he needed to discuss with Sasha. The latter was the most important thing to him.
That night, everyone came to Frontier Bay.
“What kind of place is the research institute? Is it better than the school we found for Little Ian?” asked Sabrina.
“It’s where top talents are trained. At present, there’s no place in the country that can compare with it,” Devin replied.
Sabrina was lost for words.
“That’s true. I think Ian should go. He’s talented and intelligent. We shouldn’t let his ability go to waste. He should contribute to the country,” Rufus pointed out.
Having been a soldier before, he was still proud of the fact that one was being able to serve the country.
Hearing their remarks, Sasha felt a lump in her throat.
She knew that it was a good thing, but her son was only ten years old. Besides, he was more withdrawn than ordinary children. Even though he had changed a lot after Matteo and Vivian came, she was worried that he would go back to his old self if he went to an unfamiliar place again.
If that really happened, she would rather not send him there.
All she wanted was for her children to be healthy. Other than that, nothing else mattered.
“Alright, I’m not a welfare institution. I almost died for this country, and now they want me to send my son to the country? It’s not like I’m indebted to it.” Sebastian finally spoke.
He made the remark after glancing at the woman next to him who had been silently wiping the corners of her eyes.
Hearing his words, no one dared to object to it, whereas Sasha immediately looked up with a twinkle in her teary eye.
Thirty minutes later, Vivian and Matteo went to Ian’s bedroom on the second floor after they were done showering.
“What do you think, Ian? Do you really want to go to the research institute?”
Vivian, like Sasha, was a soft-hearted girl, so she could not help feeling sad upon learning that Ian would go study somewhere far away.
Ian remained silent, whereas Matteo patted him on the back.
“It’s okay. We’ll support you in whatever decision you make. In fact, I think it’s a good thing that you have a bigger platform for your development, instead of having to do things sneakily at home.”
“Really?”
Ian, who had been in a dilemma, finally looked up and fixed his gaze on Matteo.
Matteo patted his chest. “Yes. I’ve also decided to go to the military with Uncle Devin when I grow up. I want to learn how to drive tanks, fighter jets, and warships from him. I want to learn everything!”
His eyes shone with excitement, and so was Ian’s.
Seeing this, Vivian looked at both of them and felt like crying.
“What should I do then? What should I do if both of you leave?”
“Huh?”
Both Ian and Matteo looked at her.
Only then did they realize that they had neglected her.
“Don’t cry. What do you want to do when you grow up? I’ll help you to analyze,” Matteo immediately comforted her. Being smart as he was, he tried to involve her in their topic.
Though there were teardrops hanging on Vivian’s eyelashes, she finally stopped crying.
“I…”
She tilted her head and gave it a thought.
Unfortunately, she realized that she was not good at anything other than eating.
Seeing that she had no clue, Matteo was at a loss for words.
“Don’t you like making clothes for dolls? You also often make beautiful headwear for Jaena. You can learn this,” Ian proposed.
“Oh, you’re right,” Vivian exclaimed.
Thinking of this, she took out the small pink pearl that she had been wearing on her neck.
The pearl had already been inlaid by her in a beautiful eagle made of silvery-white craft wires. With just a few twirls, the dangling piece of artwork was formed effortlessly despite her young age.
At that moment, she was holding it in her hand happily.
Staring at the eagle for a while, Matteo could not help but ask, “Vivi, why did you make an eagle? Do you not like butterflies?”
“No, I don’t. This is from Brother Cal!”
After answering Matteo, she left with the pendant with a spring in her step.
Brother Cal? Calvin, who was long gone?
Both Ian and Matteo let out a sigh.
That night, the triplets slept soundly because they found their own future goals and dreams, whereas their parents also had a good night’s sleep as they did not dwell on the matter anymore.
Time flew by. It was soon the day when Solomon’s wedding was held in Jetroina.
Everyone in Frontier Bay woke up early that day. Sasha was busy dressing up the three children, whereas Sebastian went to Hayes Corporation as Solomon had gone to Jetroina the day before for his wedding preparation.
At the same time, Sabrina went to Hayes residence.
She planned on bringing her family members to Jetroina since that was what the Jetroinians wanted.
