Mitch glanced to the side, but the two brothers mentioned didn't look over. Natasha did glance at Mitch, but she didn't say anything either.
Mitch didn't want to say anything in front of Yanis, so he gently patted Mia's head and whispered, "Go watch TV."
Mia nodded and turned back to Natasha.
After Mia left, Mitch looked at Yanis and said softly, "Yanis, they caused you in trouble today."
Yanis shook her head. "I left some food for you in the kitchen. Go eat it while it's still hot."
Mitch nodded and started walking inside before remembering anything else. He looked back at Yanis and said, "Yanis, this house is too cheap for a thousand a month. I'll give you three thousand instead."
He had already seen this neighborhood when he came in; it was an upscale area that they could never afford to buy even if they saved up their whole lives. So renting would definitely cost more than three thousand.
But right now that was all Mitch could offer.
Yanis shook her head again. "No need; just stick with what we agreed on before - one thousand is enough."
Mitch wanted to say something else, but Yanis had already turned around and headed towards the kitchen and said, "Go wash your hands; I'll bring out your food."
Mitch watched Yanis walk away, then hesitated before turning around and wandering aimlessly through the living room until he found himself in the bathroom where he washed his face and hands before coming out again.
The food was already laid out on the table by then.
"Come and eat quickly, so you can rest early," said Yanis as soon as Mitch sat down.
At first Mitch glanced at the dishes on the table and then looked up at Yanis, asking, "Are you leaving?"
"It's getting late now; I had originally planned to leave earlier, but since they have just arrived here, I thought maybe waiting till after dinner would be better."
Upon hearing this response from her once again, Mitch thanked her, sincerely saying, "Let me walk you outside, Yan."
Although initially reluctant, Yan followed along anyway after seeing how insistent Mitch was about accompanying her outside. She bid farewell separately to Natasha, Mia, Taylor and Payne, respectively, before finally stepping outside.
Manches City, which had almost reached the end of its spring season. The night air wasn't particularly chilly despite being windy .
"Mitch, is there anything specific that needs to be discussed?" asked Yannis proactively once more beside him. After hearing Yanis' words, Mitch turned to look at him with a serious expression. "Yanis, you don't have to do this for us. My dad's decision was his own choice, and we don't blame you for it. You're making us feel a little uncomfortable by doing this."
Although Mitch's words were somewhat tactful, Yanis still sensed something from them.
She was putting pressure on them.
Yanis looked at Mitch for a moment. "Okay then, I'll help Mia and the others find good schools, so they can go back to studying there. I'll also cover some of their living expenses. Can you just think of it as borrowing money from me? You can earn more money later and pay me back slowly."
"Yanis..."
"Mitch."
Without giving Mitch a chance to speak up, Yanis interrupted him with her voice. "I know what you're thinking in your heart, but look at Mia – do you really want her to stay home like this forever? When she was in Viteto the Hill District, her grades were very good - you know that too. And Taylor along with Payne and Natasha are not yet adults; are you really going to let their lives be like this?"
Yanis' words left Mitch without any reason to argue.
Finally, after a long silence, he agreed with Yanis' suggestion: "Okay then... consider these expenses as if I'm borrowing them from you; I will repay it later."
