Chapter 113

Leo glanced at Andre sitting next to him. His wife was keeping secrets from him, but he was still wearing a smile, seemingly in a good mood “Hey, Leo? Leo! Are you listening?” Without waiting for his response, Mia continued, “Where are you now?”

Leo said, heard you. I’m not home yet”

“Good. Don’t go home”

Andre nodded at Leo.

Leo got the message. He agreed, “Okay, I won’t go home. But be careful”

“What do you mean?”

Leo had already hung up.

He looked at Andre and asked, “Why are you so happy?”

“She hides things from me, does that mean she’s afraid of me?” Andre speculated.

Leo nodded, “Is that why you’re happy?”

Andre turned his gaze to his wife in the restaurant. A faint smile appeared on his lips, “If she’s afraid of me it means she cares about me.”

She cared about him, of course, he would be happy.

Inside the car, Leo couldn’t comprehend that bizarre sense of satisfaction married people had. He felt goosebumps all over.

Back in the restaurant, Mia was still puzzled, “Leo just told me to be careful. I feel like he’s trying to tell me something. Did Andre already find out?”

Hansen waved his hand dismissively, “You’re overthinking Leo couldn’t possibly have made it home even if he drove, so he definitely hasn’t met Andre.”

Mia nodded. She mused while munching on her food, “But why is my heart beating so fast?”

“He’s probably just jealous that we’re enjoying delicious food without him. This kid has some character issues.” Hansen happily took another bite of his cake and was thinking that there was nothing that delicious at home. It seemed there were benefits to hanging out more with Mia.

Mia nodded again, feeling what Hansen said made sense.

“Even if Leo drove from the university, it will take him at least half an hour. And he didn’t drive today, so he definitely hasn’t reached home yet. Andre is also working overtime at the office. They haven’t met.”
