Chapter 2538
"Oh?" Sebastian replied. He had never truly asked her about her future.
That was because Aino was only thirteen, she still has a long way ahead of her before she has to think about her future. Sebastian was thinking that she has to go through the entire process of elementary school, middle school, high school, college, and further studies abroad. That would at least take her more than ten years. It was truly too early to be thinking about her future career path at that moment.
However, Sebastian did not know that Aino had already had her own plan all along, she has had it since a long time ago.
"Mm-hmm. I want to study architecture." Aino raised her head and looked at her father.
"You want to follow in your mother's footsteps?" Sebastian asked with interest.
Aino smiled mysteriously and looked at her father. "It's my grandmother's..."
Sebastian instantly smiled. "You're quite good with your words. However, I have to tell you that where you were to walk in your mother's or your grandmother's footsteps, I will support you. I admit I was very much hoping that you could take over the entire Ford Group in the past. That is because you are my eldest. Your two younger brothers are almost eight years younger than you. When you grow up, your brother would still be too young. Therefore, you're the most suitable candidate to first take over the Ford family. However, I have changed my mind."
Aino raised her head and looked at her father with interest. "What changed your mind, Dad?"
"It's because I suddenly realized no matter who it is in this position of mine, it's too dangerous, and the person also has to worry about many things. I don't wish for my children to worry and have such a hard time like me. I have the ability to let my children live a better life. They can live a better life without the need to worry, be in fear, and fight for those powers, why should I put my children in the teeth of conflict then?"
Aino looked up at him and said, "Dad, I love you very much."
"I love you too, baby."
"But Dad, I don't want to take over the Ford Group not because I didn't want to worry and go through the hardships. In fact, I can endure all sorts of hardships. Do you believe me? I have been living with Mom before I turned five and I have witnessed how she has endured all the hardships. I, too, can endure hardships. I am not afraid of needing to worry as well. I just felt that everybody has to be self-reliant. Also, I liked architecture more, especially ancient architecture. I like to study them."
The child had long already planned her future. Sebastian felt incredibly excited when he heard his daughter telling him all about it.
"As expected of my daughter," he said proudly.
"Tell me, which college do you want to go to? Plionia? Or....," Sebastian asked his daughter while walking. He suddenly felt that that was the happiest time in the world - spending time with family. He walked leisurely while discussing leisurely with his daughter about her dreams and interests. Everything would be based on his daughter's preferences.
