Mia assuredly said, "No way. Molly's feelings haven't quite reached that level yet. At most, she's emotionally invested without realizing it, or she's slightly aware. She and Chad are just exploring their feelings for each other." Leo asked, "But Chad likes my aunt, right? He must've sensed that she's into him. Why is he acting as if nothing happened?"

Mia speculated, "Perhaps they're not ready to confront their feelings yet. They just want to keep things as they are for now."

Leo said bluntly, "So, they're just flirting, huh?"

Mia nodded in agreement, "Your Aunt Molly does seem to enjoy that kind of thing. Plus, Chad surely has his own reasons. The Byrnes are one obstacle, and our old man is another."

"True," Leo mused. "If Chad were to confess his feelings, he wouldn't be able to explain it to his family, nor could he freely interact with my aunt. Our family probably wouldn't allow Molly to stay with the Byrnes anymore." Mia reclined on her deck chair, with eyes closed, relaxed. "We can just sit back and watch how things unfold. Molly, being pursued by Chad, can't escape this."

"Why are you so certain?"

"The intuition of a married woman," Mia responded with a smirk.

As they were chatting, Anya approached from behind, "Auntie, Leo, what are you guys talking about?"

Leo turned around, "Adult stuff, kiddo. You shouldn't be too curious."

Mia laughed and opened her eyes to look at Leo. "Oh, look at my Leo, already considering himself an adult."

Leo retorted, "You're about to be a mom. Aren't you an adult?"

After saying that, he left the backyard and headed back to the cool indoors.

Mia gestured to the empty chair beside her, "Anya, come, sit. Let's chat."
