When Finland heard Caspar's words, she seemed to think for a long time. Her husband's words were true. Aleksis already had a life of her own. Alaric, her husband, had his own business, RMI, which was comparable to Schneider Group. There was no way they would have time to handle the Schneider family business.
Only London and Terry could be relied on to take care ot the Schneider grup today.
However, the two of them had been using their identities for quite a while now. It seemed impossible to force them to continue living their lives as London Schneider and Terry Chan any longer.
Terry had resigned two years ago, together with Mischa. Meanwhile, Rune, her youngest son, who preferred science to business, spent more time with Aldebar or Lauriel. He was a free-spirited adventurer who didn't want to be tied behind the walls of office buildings.
Indeed, it would be a more logical choice for Finland and Caspar to have another child to take over the business from London in this situation.
However, when Finland saw her daughter-in-law, L, who was currently pregnant, she felt uneasy about herself. Imagine ... how awkward it would be if she were to give birth to a child at the same time as her daughter-in-law? Jeez ...
Finally, she shook her head. "Uhm ... you better go back to work in the office, then. I can accompany you working in the headquarter."
Caspar smiled at his wife's words. "Fine. If that's what you want."
"Whaaa... thank you, Mom. I'll take care of all this," said London happily. He hugged his mother and kissed Finland on the cheek. With a big smile, he took his cell phone and called Jan, his loyal assistant who was currently living in New York, managing the Schneider Group's business in America.
Finland just shook her head to see her son's behavior. She knew that even though London said he would take care of everything, actually he would ask Jan to do it.
"How's Jan doing, anyway?" asked Finland after London finished his call with Jan. "When will he marry his girlfriend? You keep him so busy with work that he has no time for personal life."
London only laughed at his mother's words. "I'm not keeping him busy with work, Mom. Jan is quite a workaholic himself. Since he won the Top Executive award by Ritz Magazine, he has become more and more ambitious. He offered Terry to replace him in New York. I didn't tell him to do anything. So far, I think he really enjoyed his job."
"Hmm ... thank God then," said Finland, feeling relieved. She would fee very guilty to Kurt Van Der Ven, who died to protect her daughter, Aleksis, if Jan lived were to suffer.
"Anyway, you don't have to worry, Mom. Jan is like my own brother," said London, reassuring her mother. "I would never take advantage of him."
Alaric and Aleksis just watched the scene with a smile. They had four children who could take care of all their family businesses.
Soon, the twins, Ireland and Scotland, would m.a.t.u.r.e and follow in the footsteps of their brother Altair who was already working to lead RMI. Alaric simply didn't have to go back into business, if he didn't want to.
And in twenty years, if Altaïr wanted to resign, Mischa and his foster siblings could take over. Their family was indeed really lucky to have many successors.
"Well .. if you are willing to take over, I will hold a big meeting with all the directors in our group and inform them of my decision to resign. L will also make an announcement to the media, that she will quit the entertainment industry," said London.
"People will be shocked," said L added with a smile. "All this time, I have been very strict about my privacy. Now, all of a sudden I would announce that I am already married, about to have a baby, and then quit the entertainment industry."
"Ahh ... going into a retirement at the peak of your career is a wise decision," said Finland. "Just look at Billie Yves. She is still considered a legend until now."
"Ah, but I can't be compared to amazing Aunt Billie," said L shyly. "She is really a legend in her own league."
"Why not have one last concert, as a farewell to your fans?" asked Finland. "I think it will leave a deep impression. And your fans will also feel more ready to see you retire."
L thought of her mother-in-law's words and then nodded. "Mother is right. I'm going to talk to Pammy and Brilliant Mind Media to arrange my last concert ... It should be a free concert for everyone. I think I can do it. The first trimester of my pregnancy was quite tough. Fortunately, I'm feeling better now."
"I'll call Pammy," said London hastily. He kissed L's cheek and rubbed her hair. "Remember, the doctor said, you can't tire yourself."
"It's only a phone call. I am not going to be tired by it," said L with a chuckle.
However, London shook his head in disagreement. "You are not allowed to do any work. Let me do it."
L's face looked very red at her husband's treatment in front of many people. London had never shied away from showing his love for L, but after all these years, the shy woman was still not used to it. She still blushed when London acted like that in front of their family.
London was always happy to see L's face blushing. He was really tempted to kiss her lips affectionately. However, considering his parents and sister were there, the man was forced to hold back.
If he kissed those little red lips ... ah, he wouldn't know what would happen. A deep kiss with L usually ended with baby-making activities.. hehe.
Gosh. Why was he still having perverted thoughts towards his wife?
They had been married for almost 15 years, but it seemed he never got bored and always wanted to make out and make love to her.
He cleared his throat and called Pammy to explain what they wanted for L's farewell concert. After he talked to L's manager, he and Caspar discussed various technical matters about transferring positions in the group to his father. Once everything was sorted, the warm family sat down to have dinner together.
***
A month later, the public was shocked by L's farewell concert. It was held for free in a people's park in the middle of Berlin city. All journalists and entertainment media were there to cover the event.
Tens of thousands of people immediately packed the park as soon as they heard the news about the concert. By that time, Germany was entering autumn, and the sun was setting earlier than usual.
Close to 5 pm, with the purple twilight of the setting sun as the backdrop, the stage in the center of the Frühling Park was immediately surrounded by L's fans who wanted to watch their idol perform for one last time.
At 5 pm, music started to fill the entire park, and a beautiful little woman appeared on the center stage, singing a hit song from her first album.
"L !!! We love you!"
"L ... you're so beautiful!"
There were screams and cries from the fans who saw their idol. L raised her hand, waved to them, and greeted her fans while continuing to sing her song.
London, who stood beside the stage, just smiled to himself, seeing how his wife looked so stunning. Now L's pregnancy was already five months in, and her body started to look a bit chubby, but she didn't seem worried about how people judge her appearance.
His principle at that time was, if he couldn't make L slim, then he should make her surrounded by fat people so that L would look slim among them .. hehehehe.
Until today, London still didn't know how Jan was able to pull it off. Finding backup dancers weighed at least 100 kg each must have been a really difficult thing to do at the last minute.

Do you still remember when London asked Jan to find those dancers? It was one of my favorite moments. I think it was in chapter 617.
