“Combining my savings and the return from my investment…” The lady revealed excitement at the corner of her eyes. “Hubby, guess how much we have now?!”
Zephyr shook his head while chuckling.
Cordelia whispered the number and could not stop smiling.
“Hubby, I can finally get you a car!”
“What?” Zephyr put down the cutlery and looked at her with slight confusion.
“I’m getting you a car!” she repeated. “Didn’t I tell you that I wanted to get you a car so that you won’t have to use public transportation? It’s just that I didn’t have enough savings before.”
Zephyr felt warm.
It seemed her salary had doubled when she was promoted to sales supervisor at the previous company.
She had said she would get a mortgage to buy a house, and then she would buy him a car for convenience.
It seemed she never felt the pain of spending money on him…
He held her hands softly and looked into her eyes.
“You don’t have to buy me a car. Just save it for your mom and Carter.”
“I’ve set aside money for them!” Cordelia smiled. “Although taking care of them is important, I can’t mistreat my hubby! I said I’d buy you a car, so I’ll definitely get you one.”
“I think… you said that you’d take care of me for the rest of my life, right?” His voice was dry.
Cordelia nodded in all seriousness.
She had said she would take care of him for the rest of his life. She could not miss a day, an hour, a minute, or even a second.
“It’s set, hubby.” She scooped food on his plate. “Let’s look at cars this weekend! Oh yeah, I’m bringing Linda along. She worked at a car dealer when she was studying. She knows cars better!”
Zephyr could not fight her with that, so he followed her to a car dealership on the weekend.
Never had he thought Linda would bring Nicholas along.
The store manager was stunned to see him. He looked all high and mighty before, but now he behaved like a lackey. He was faking a big smile.
