Chapter 1012 Does It Make You Feel Burdened?

Chapter 1012 Does it make you feel burdened?

Aimee finished the last bite of her noodles and set down her bowl, looking at Patrick. "So, what are your thoughts now? Do you have any plans to open a restaurant?"

Patrick handed Aimee a napkin to wipe her mouth before answering. "Honestly, I don't have any specific ideas. I'll be investing money and helping with the menu, but ultimately it will depend on their vision. Mikayla is very unpredictable and always exploring new things, so it's probably best to discuss this with Ivy." NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

"I think Damion wants all of us to invest in the restaurant and have Ivy as the main operator," Aimee said.

"He doesn't want Ivy to sacrifice her career for him or their family by leaving the company," Patrick explained. "From his perspective, he wants to plan ahead for her future."

Aimee nodded in agreement. "That's why Mikayla and I suggested that we don't make any final decisions yet and keep Ivy excited about this project. During the planning phase, Mikayla can handle it while giving time for Ivy and Damion's family planning. After that, she can hand over full control of operations when she returns."

"I'm okay with that," Patrick said. "If that's how Damion wants to support her, then we should help him out."

"Great! We can discuss everything in detail during our trip at sea," Aimee suggested.

Patrick remained silent but was touched by Damion's thoughtfulness.

They all knew that Ivy had always felt inferior due to their differences in status.

Now even though she was married into wealthier circumstances than before, there were still some sensitive issues between them especially if they were directly involved without considering how she might feel about it.

If Damion just opened up a restaurant for Ivy without consulting anyone else, then it would only add more pressure on her since she would feel like he was trying too hard or didn't trust her abilities enough.

By doing this together as friends, they could tell Ivy they just wanted an easy investment opportunity without having too much responsibility themselves. And it can let her take charge of making money from running things, which would give them more time off instead of feeling like they needed someone else managing everything, because they couldn't handle it themselves.

The difference between this and Damion directly giving the restaurant to Ivy was that doing so will not make Ivy feel that Damion disliked her for being idle at home and not having her own career.

"It never occurred me until now how cleverly scheming Damion can be sometimes," Patrick remarked, finally breaking his silence on what he thought about all this.

Aimee smiled and said, "That just means he really loves Ivy. A man only puts in so much effort when he truly loves a woman. Otherwise, why make things so complicated? Just use money to solve the problem. It's easier."

Patrick said, "I suddenly feel envious of him."

Aimee looked at Patrick skeptically and asked, "Envious of what?"

"Envious that he has the chance to go through all these twists and turns. You haven't given me that opportunity," Patrick replied with a hint of grievance in his tone.

Upon hearing this, Aimee burst out laughing. She lifted her hand to hook around Patrick's neck and said, "What can you do? Is your wife too excellent for you? Do you feel burdened?"

Patrick responded by saying, "The burden is fine. I just feel like something is missing, as if I'm not giving enough to you."

From the beginning, Patrick had felt lost on how to proceed.
