Retirement

After a full night of celebration, Nick started his day with bright mood. He kissed his sleeping beauty and went to work. "Mum, dad. I am going to work now. Don't wake her up, she is very tired" Nick kissed her son cheek then left for work.

Mr Feng laughed "Austen, You are going to have sibling soon".

Mrs feng glared at her husband but she giggled after that, She also loved the idea of having more grandkid.

"I hope it's a girl" she blurted.

Alice jumped from the bed when she opened her eyes and saw the clock,it was almost 9.30. She cursed her husband for making the trouble "Selfish shameless pervert" For sexual pleasure he made her neglected their son.

It was a challenging day for Alice. With her sore body, she looked after their son and her business as well. Her third collection would be release on the weekend, she ensured that verything was on track.

"How is the release preparation ? is it ready ?" Mrs Feng asked Alice during dinner

"All good, Mum. We don't do much this time. We put the dress on the mannequins then take the pictures then we upload them on website on Saturday" Alice explained.

"will they know about your next release ?" Mr Feng asked.

"Yes, we already have a lot of enquiries on our website and email. We have announced the release date publicly"

Nick suddenly remembered something then he unlocked his phone and sent a text message

'On saturday, my wife will release her third collection on the website. choose one for your mother'

"Eldest sister, what color is my dress for big sister wedding ?" Cacha asked.

"Same as mine, Michelle and Lana, lilac. Are you happy ?"

"yes"

"Mum, is it ok for Jasmine to have the same as well ?" Alice asked Mrs Feng opinion first. She was not sure if she could treat Jasmine as part of the family yet.

"If she don't mind then go head" Mrs Feng was also not sure. Jasmine was different from Alice, Alice were more clingy and warm so their relationship progressed faster. But Jasmine was bit passive and distance toward her, so they were still awkward when they faced each other.

"Ok. I'll ask her to come to the shop tomorrow so we can measure her as well"

"Mum, so when is the wedding ?" Nick asked. He just knew it would be in December.

"23 december" Mrs Feng signed.

"What ?" Alice was shocked. It was the busiest time for chrismast shopping.

"I know. I'll to negotiate again"

"It's ok Mum. Hon, just trust Leo to do it and hire one or two more staff. I'm going to book our tickets, we are coming a week before and stay until new year there" Nick said.

"Yay !! another family holidays this time is country K" Cacha was delighted.

"Sean has booked tickets for mum and dad. You fly there mid of november. About the fruit shop, I'll ask uncle Dave to look after it until Dad's back" Nick added.

Suddenly, there was sound of unclocking door, It was Sean and Jasmine came.

"Oh you are here. Why did you come so late ? Have you had dinner ?"

Jasmine was stunned to hear Mrs Feng questions, She didn't know with questions to be answeres first.

"We just had dinner with my client and come here" Sean said then they both sat on the sofa.

"Jasmine, do you mind to wear Lilac dress on Sasha wedding? we are all agree with Lilac as our family color for that day" Alice explained.

Jasmine nodded awkwardly.

"Good"

"Sean. It's good you come tonight call Alan and Sasha. I have something to say" Mr Feng said.

Nick called them through their family group chat .

"I want to tell you guys that I am going to retired next year. you are all grown up and Cacha also completed her study, so I can relax now. the shop is my tears and blood but I know all of you have your own things so I want to sell the business" Mr Feng smiled.

"Don't sell it !" Nick and Sean said together.

"If you want to retire just do it. But let the shop run and be managed by others. Sean and me will find the solution" Nick made decision.

"Yeah. for the time being let uncle Dave to manage it" Sean agreed.

"All the profits in december, I want to donate them to charity. Your mum chose the children hospital" Mr Feng smiled as he admired his wife.

"I am going to accompany your mum to enjoy her day from now on. She has been worked so hard since we were dating. She never tell me but I am certain she also wanted to be pampered and doted by me. But when we were young, I could not do that beacause our financial was not good. It's my time to pamper my wife. I don't know how long we can live until, I just want to spend the rest of my time to make her happy"

"Dad, you and mum are going to live together for along time. I'll give you more grandkids" Alice smiled but her tears were falling down.

"Jasmine and I will add more" Sean said.

"I don't have boyfriend yet but you already made a farewell speech" Cacha cried as well.

"Dad, I am a doctor. I'll make sure you can see all of your grandkids got married" Alan voiced sound heavy.

Sasha didn't said anything, but they could hear she was sobbing.

"Why did you say that in front of the kids. they are laughing at us" Mrs Feng pouted

Jasmine, Alice and Michelle now understood where the sweet act their respective partner came from. Their father in law was so sweet.
