“He simply adopted his seventh.”

She needed to chortle. “Are you certain there will probably be area for each of us together with all of the cats?”

“Don’t fear about it – he nonetheless lives in his household dwelling, although his sisters moved out a few years in the past. He has loads of area.”

“Nicely, I do like cats. I’m certain I’ll be advantageous there.”

Liv had all the time wished a cat, however her dad was allergic. Fortunately, she hadn’t inherited that trait. Perhaps when she was dwelling alone, she may undertake a cat herself if the roommate factor didn’t work out.

“Do you’ve got any thought what the method is by way of beginning a enterprise in Belgium?”

“Not but, however I’ll discover out. Alex will know all of the ins and outs. He’ll be capable to assist us get began.”

Liv knew that Alex had began a number of profitable companies of his personal in Belgium.

“I hope he’s not going to poach you from me.”

Meg laughed. “You don’t want to fret about that. I’ve no need to work for him. That will simply make issues approach too sophisticated. It’s higher to maintain work and private lives separate.”

“You’ll need to cease working such lengthy hours, if you wish to spend any time with him.”

“Bah, he works even longer hours than I do. We’ll be advantageous, Liv.”

Meg didn’t ask her about her sudden need to maneuver to Europe, and Liv was grateful, however a bit exasperated. Truthfully, did everybody learn about her and Juliette? She had thought they have been being delicate, however apparently, their subtlety was wasted on everybody besides Laura.

Liv supposed that Laura’s ignorance was what mattered. It wasn’t like anybody else in her life would choose them. Laura may need figured it out too if it wasn’t one thing she actually didn’t need to see.

“I suppose I’d higher allow you to go – I’m certain you need to begin packing.”

“If it’s going to be a couple of days anyway, then I ought to work for now. I’ll pack after work. There’s a lot to do – closing issues up right here, discovering a brand new CEO, getting flights organized…”

Yeah, bringing Meg was positively the appropriate determination. Liv would have been fully overwhelmed with out her. She may have dealt with it alone if needed, however she was glad she didn’t need to.

“Which language do you need to be taught?”

“What?”

“Nicely, the official languages are Dutch, French and German. Alex is bilingual in English and French, so I’ll be studying French.”

“I hadn’t considered that.”

“I imply, it’s not important. Most everybody will communicate English, not less than within the huge cities like the place we’ll be transferring. However we’ll have a greater probability of getting citizenship in a couple of years if we’re fluent in one among their languages.”

“That’s a superb level. I hadn’t thought that far forward, however you’re proper. It’ll make our lives so much simpler to know not less than one of many languages. I’m unsure I need to quit my US citizenship, although.”

“Me neither – I’m going to look into twin citizenship. I can do the identical for you. Ought to I begin arranging classes for us? Alex might help by talking French to us at dwelling, however we should always go for formal classes, too, and he received’t have a lot free time to show us.”

“That will be good. I’ll obtain some apps within the meantime in order that I can get began. I suppose we should always begin testing one another on vocabulary.”

“Rattling proper. We’re going to kick this factor within the butt.”

Liv spent the remainder of the day making preparations. She was dreading telling the remainder of the employees, who have been unlikely to be practically as enthusiastic as Meg was, nevertheless it was higher to do it now earlier than they discovered by themselves.

So, Liv referred to as an off-the-cuff assembly on the finish of the day, gathering everybody in the principle work space.

“Hello, everybody. I’ve information, however earlier than I give it, let me simply guarantee you that your jobs are protected. Nothing a lot goes to alter for all of you… however I’m leaving.”

Dismayed murmurs stuffed the room, however Liv soldiered on. “I’m going to Belgium to start out a brand new department of Aimee Enterprises. My dad will fill in as CEO till we are able to discover a everlasting alternative. Meg is coming with me, and if any of you wish to discover a recent begin in Europe, I’ll gladly assist together with your transferring bills. Nevertheless, I don’t count on any of you to maneuver continents with me, so please don’t really feel like you’ll want to in an effort to hold your jobs.
