Leo said, "I'm thinking about moving out."
He had it figured out that at least for the time being, Mia and Andre weren't going anywhere. He was being too foolish if he continued like that.
Naomi immediately shot him down, "No way."
"Mom, Andre's been living at home now, I don't need to do anything to make him come back and give me a hard time."
But Naomi countered, "If you move out, who will drive Mia to school in the morning? She won't take the chauffeur's car."
Leo was frustrated, "So, I'm just Mia's chauffeur at home?"
Naomi felt a little guilty, so she added, "If you're at home, I can take care of you."
"I think you take better care of Mia."
Naomi was speechless. It was a little awkward.
In the afternoon, as expected, Andre took Mia car shopping. Leo tagged along as the errand boy.
"Mia, go check out that Bentley."
Mia scoffed, "It's ugly, I don't want it."
Leo, "I do."
Andre said, "Dream on."
Leo was speechless.
Andre, "When choosing a car, you can't just judge by its looks."
Mia said, "But if I don't like its looks, it's a no-go."
Andre asked, "What about a sports car, do you like it?"
Mia nodded enthusiastically.
"Do you want it?" Andre asked.
Mia frowned and shook her head.
Andre chuckled, leading his wife to the front to look at the car. A salesperson was on standby, explaining the various perks of the car. Mia clung to her husband's fingers, staring at him with a blank, cute expression, as if saying: I don't understand!
Men could understand what a V8 engine and cylinder deactivation mean, but in Mia's world, she could only ask: What are these things!
Leo was all ears.
Andre cut the salesperson off, pointing to his nephew. "You explain it to Mia."
Leo, "What’s in it for me?"
Andre gave him a look.
Leo was a bit sheepish, itching to punch the couple in the face.
"Basically, this car is high-end and luxurious. The seats are all leather, easy to operate, comfortable to sit in, well-designed, high-spec, and the exhaust note is top-notch. It has adaptive cruise control, so you don't need to worry about keeping your speed when following the car in front. Plus, it's fuel-efficient."
Leo figured that was enough for Mia to handle. He put it simply and clearly, and she got it.
"But it's too long. I can't reverse park."
Leo opened the car door, pointing to the display screen in the middle. "It's got a 360-degree reversing camera. Even a pig could park it."
Mia clenched her fists. "Say that one more time."
Leo saw her hand and quickly blinked, "This car is perfect in every way, especially for a beginner like you."
Andre was also satisfied with the car and asked his wife, "Do you like it?"
