This time, two of her friends bought cars, and she didn't have the nerve to ask him for one. She'd just upset him and hadn't made up yet, so she didn't dare to ask.

Mia had a sudden thought and said, "Jade, how about I drive you home today?"

Jade didn't think much of it and said, "Chad will pick me up."

Mia continued, "You've never ridden in my car before, let me take you home. I haven't been to your place in a long time."

Leo, on the other hand, was at a loss and even tried to stop Mia. "Aren't you supposed to go home with me tonight? If you take Jade home, won't that mess up our plans?"

Under the table, Mia stepped on Leo's foot. "You never talk when you should, but you can't shut up when you shouldn't."

Leo looked innocent, what had he done wrong?

Jade also said, "Mia, how about you drive me next time? I really need to behave myself recently, I really can't mess with Chad anymore. If Chad dies young one day, it's definitely because I pissed him off." Mia, "...then I'll go with you to your place. With me there, Chad won't bully you."

Jade scratched her head, looking at her friend with a puzzled frown. Something seemed off about Mia.

"Tell me straight, did you have another fight with your husband and plan to hide at my place?" Leo, the forgetful one, spoke out of turn again, "No way, she kissed Andre in front of me when she left this morning, they couldn't have fought so soon." Jade got excited in an instant, "Mia, do you kiss your man every morning now? Hey, you've really learned the ropes. You know how to kiss now. Tell me everything."

Mia bit her tongue and turned to look at Leo, who deserved a punch. "Leo, if you die young one day, it'd definitely be because I beat you to death!"

Leo held his tongue. Why couldn't he speak freely now?

Mia continued to look at Jade, and casually lied, "Jade, I want to borrow a book from you."

Jade's eyes lit up immediately. She looked at Mia, "What? Do you have some secret in mind?"

Mia nodded with a perfunctory smile, deliberately misleading Jade, "Something like that."

"You should've said so earlier, I could definitely find what you want to read. Come home with me today."
