In the afternoon, Andre got back home.
Mia and Leo had already returned from school. Seeing Andre come back, Mia dashed up to him, "Honey, you're back."
Andre, seeing the caution in her eyes, generously gave her a hug. Then he quickly let go of Mia and said, "Sweetie, I've got some stuff to handle. You go play first."
He looked at Leo, and said loudly, "You, come here."
Leo, who was sitting on the sofa playing on his phone, promptly put his phone down and followed Andre upstairs to the study.
"If you're going to punish me, just spit it out, don't keep me on tenterhooks."
Leo even proactively offered to take the punishment.
Andre said, "I don't know what you guys are up to, but I'm warning you, if anything happens to Mia, I'll hold you responsible. Don't go to those places anymore."
Leo thought about Andre's tough wife, how could she possibly listen to him? If Mia listened to him, he would have turned the tables long ago, would he still be under her thumb after all these years?
"Do you understand?" Andre asked seriously.
Leo didn't respond. Because, to promise but not deliver, was even more terrible in Andre's book. So, he didn’t promise in the first place.
Someone knocked on the door, followed by a hesitant voice, "Honey, can I come in?"
Leo said, "She was waiting for you all night yesterday. She was even crying secretly in class today."
Hearing this, Andre frowned. Didn't he tell her to go to bed early last night?
But how can one fall asleep so easily when they had someone on their mind.
Leo continued, "You're the most unique person I've ever met. Your emotions affected hers; Your words were always in her mind. She smiles every time your name is mentioned. She doesn't allow us to say anything bad about you, only she can. She had you completely contained in her world; We were all outside of her world. She obviously loved you, and I can't believe you couldn't feel it."
Andre was a little shocked. He knew his wife had him in her heart, but hearing it acknowledged from Leo was surprising. After the surprise came joy, this was the feeling of liking someone who secretly liked you back.
Leo said confidently, "You are her first love. She's never dated, so she might not know that this is love. We outsiders can see it clearly, she has never cared about anyone's opinion to this extent.
Since you ignored her yesterday, she's been upset, asking when you'd be back during breakfast, constantly checking her phone during lunch at school, not eating any of her favorite snacks, and always looking at the front door at home.
“You came back, and she was careful not to make you angry. You hugged her, and she was very happy. You didn't talk to her, and she would cry.
“In relationships, it's the one who loves deeply that is so careful. You obviously like her too, why can't you treat her well?”
Leo wasn't a fool, he could see Andre's deep affection for Mia.
There was a man who had once sworn not to marry, not to wed, yet one day, he suddenly embraced a woman in his arms. He flirted with her, and whispered sweet nothings. For her, he could silently sulk, and he could also freely spend money on her. He personally taught her how to drive, and accompanied her in play.
...
Andre had many little details that easily revealed his affection for Mia. The deep affection they both had for each other was obvious to those who were observant.
"I didn't neglect her." Andre finally defended himself.
