Carly smiled and nodded. "Sure." The Carter family was indeed kind, well-educated, and decent. Carly looked at Isabella and suddenly became happy again as she was glad for the latter to meet such a kind family.
That afternoon, they completed the discharge procedures for Ronald. Then, they packed up their things at the rented house and moved back to Isabella and Adrian's mansion. When Damian saw Ronald was back, he rejoiced and immediately invited him to play with Lego.
Isabella was a little worried about Ronald's injury. She repeatedly told the children to be careful, especially reminding Damian to take good care of Ronald and look out for the wound on his forehead so he wouldn't get hurt again. Damian nodded and promised not to fight with Ronald.
After moving back to the mansion, Carly felt relieved. It was a prestigious residential area. Even if the Zane family were discharged from the hospital, they couldn't enter the area even if they knew they lived there.
After settling Ronald's issue, Carly couldn't help worrying about work. She had previously wanted to quit her job, but after the Carter family spoke with her about it, she thought she could continue to work hard. 'But is it really okay to go to Strico with Becky?' she thought, still feeling concerned. She was different from Becky, who got divorced but still had a strong family backing her up and could rest assured of living the life she wanted. However, Carly was different. She was alone and had to take care of Ronald, so she needed to plan her life. She had to think carefully about every step she and Ronald would take in the future to avoid making a mistake.
Late at night, when Carly was absent-minded, Isabella suddenly walked to her side and asked in a low voice, "Carly, what are you thinking about?"
Carly was silent for a while and said, "I'm thinking about the future."
At the mention of this, Isabella became serious and asked with concern, "Have you made up your mind?"
Carly shook her head. "Not yet."
Isabella hesitated and added, "Carly, why don't you go to Strico with Becky just like what Patrick said?"
Isabella looked at Carly and advised thoughtfully, "Carly, you don't have to think so much. The Carter family business is huge. It's not difficult for them to take you in. If you can follow them and learn, your future will definitely be brighter than instead of you wandering around."
When Stacey and Hayden returned, they immediately visited Carly and Ronald with gifts. They also talked about moving to Strico together. Stacey was happy to hear that Carly decided to take Ronald with her to Strico.
However, before they left, Patrick gave Stacey a document with information about the company branch in Strico. The information was not as simple as they had imagined. The business also had some internal problems, but Patrick didn't assign Becky to handle the troublesome matters back then. He just wanted her to rest assured and live a good life.
However, now that Becky's life was back on track and would get better in the future, he thought it was time for her to slowly learn how to manage all the troublesome problems in the company. Only when Becky learned to manage them and could suppress the people in the company could she inherit the company and run it well.
Soon, Becky moved to Strico to live with Hayden and manage the Carter family's business in Strico. Carly also wanted to go, but not for the time being. She had to wait for Ronald to finish his semester before transferring to another school next semester. However, she was no longer worried about the future, as she believed it would only get better.
