Chapter 260Chapter 260
The man looked at Sean and said enthusiastically, “Sir, ma’am, nice to meet you.” “I’m working for the
skateboard association, and I think your son has a lot of potential. I was just wondering if you’d be
interested in sending him to us for professional training. He might even make it to the world cup in the
future.
“It’s known to everybody that skateboarding was a new Olympic sport. This could be a chance for him to
make our country proud.” He was very sincere. He sounded very polite and gentle too. That was why
Molly and Sean listened to him without interrupting him. Molly had no idea whether to explain her
relationship with Sean first or to answer his question first.
Sean sounded very calm as he said, “Nice to meet you too. The kid is still young. It’s better for him to
make his own decisions. He might need some time for this, and we can’t give you an answer now.”
The man nodded. He understood what Sean was trying to say as he continued asking, “Can we
exchange numbers then?” After that, he said solemnly, “Please consider this very seriously.” Sean
looked at Molly, and their eyes met. Molly nodded and gave the man her number as she gave up the
idea of explaining her relationship with Sean. Tony looked puzzled and confused after they said goodbye
to the man. “How did he get recruited by the people from the skateboarding association just by doing
that? Besides, did he say something about making our country proud?’ Claudia ran to Ben and gave him
a compliment, “Bro, you’re so impressive!” Molly had been inculcating such values in the triplets when
they were still living abroad. All of them knew that making the country proud was the crowning glory of
all!
They would think of their home country no matter where they were. Alex chimed in. “Yeah. Ben, you’re so
good.”Molly held their hands and kept walking casually. She was very glad that her kid’s competency was
acknowledged by other people, and she also felt very happy for Ben.
She reached out and touched Ben’s head before saying to him seriously, “Ben, you’ve got to think this
through. It’s going to be very tough once you decide to join them. It’s nothing like being at home, and you
might even get hurt. Your coach will require you to make a lot of difficult moves, and he is going to
criticize you if you fail to meet his expectations. There are going to be countless wounds and scars
behind the crowning glory. You have to sacrifice a lot of things in order to achieve that.”
Ben heard what she said and nodded before responding, “Mom, I’ll think about it.”
Some things were never as glamorous as they may appear to be. Molly taught him about that previously,
so he could understand everything she said.
Molly patted his shoulder and held his hand. Then, she stopped talking.
novelbinTony was impressed by what happened in front of him as he said, “Ms. May, is this how you’ve been
educating your children?” It is rare to see how parents respect their children’s opinions these days, let
alone allow them to make their own decisions.
Especially in a wealthy family, almost every child had to do what their elders told them to. They would
usually have to learn Olympiad maths or attend interest classes that would make them look very elegant.
They would only do that because everybody else from a wealthy family did too.
So, he was very amazed by how Molly educated her child. Molly smiled faintly. She turned around and
looked at him before saying, “The kids have their own ideas and things they want to do too. They’re also
an independent individual, so I respect their opinion.” That was also something she learned from her
college when she was still working abroad.
