“This car probably wasn’t cheap. Even if it isn’t a high-end like the Flying Horse or Eldora, I bet it’s still worth hundreds of thousands,” Hazel Lewis patted the incredibly comfortable seat and continued, “Still, it’s probably cheaper than their own Lanquoma car. I’ve ridden in their car, and it’s nowhere near as comfortable as my son’s. Right, Chloe?”
“Dad, you always have such a good eye!” Finn Lewis quickly buttered his father up.
“Yeah, my brother’s car is the most comfortable!” Chloe eagerly nodded in agreement.
The drive from Legacy City to Hello City took approximately three hours. Finn didn’t dare drive too fast -120 was as fast as he was willing to go, which was already quite fast. Once they arrived at Hello City, Aunt Fay and the rest were already waiting inside a restaurant. Using the Olivia Thatcher navigation system, Finn found the address and finally met his mother’s side of the family.
Although it had been quite a long time since their last meeting, Finn warmly greeted his relatives. “Look at you, able to convince my Aunt Fay and her family to come! My mom has been wanting you guys to come over for a long time, but it never came about,” Sophie Lee gave Finn a friendly pat on the shoulder.
“Hehe, having money solves everything, persuading my mom was a piece of cake,” Finn laughed cheekily.
Sophie was the second daughter from Aunt Fay’s family. Finn’s second sister, was Charlotte Lee, her older sister. Their cousin from their uncle’s side was named Bell Lee, but this kid didn’t do well in school and dropped out in middle school, leading a carefree life without even looking for a job. The remaining two children from his younger uncles’ side were still in primary school.
“Wow, you’re rolling in it now!” Sophie said, laughing.
“Absolutely.” Among his peers, Finn was more relaxed. Aunt Fay probably already knew what had happened, so there was no need to go into detail.
However, everyone was curious about how much money Finn actually made. Over lunch, the family enquired roughly about it.
After hearing that Finn had made so much money from just writing a program, Aunt Fay and others felt sentimental. They all agreed that the education paid off, after all, Finn was the first university graduate in their family. Finn’s second sister Charlotte had gone to vocational school, which didn’t really count as university.
Everyone was overjoyed by the meal. And because everyone from his mother’s side was reunited, the lunch was even more special as Aunt Ann joined. They all stayed in touch, being in the same city.
“After dinner, you and I need to step out,” Finn discreetly nudged Sophie and said, hinting at the fact that his mother was coming and they still didn’t have a place to stay.
“For what?” Sophie asked curiously.
“We have to go shopping, and I don’t know the area. You have to be my guide, besides, isn’t this your job?” Finn sniggered.
“Okay, but my guide services cost five hundred,” Sophie said, immediately bursting into giggles.
“No problem, it’s a tiny matter,” Finn also laughed and stood up holding his drink. “Mother, Aunt Fay, Uncle Bell, Aunt Charlotte, Aunt Ann, Uncle Bell Jr., Uncle Bell Sr., and Aunt Ann, and all my aunts and uncles-in-law. Hehe, tonight, the treat’s on me! Thanks for having us, my mom and dad will be staying with you guys. This afternoon, I’ll be going out with my sister, so I won’t be drinking. Let’s toast with tea instead, cheers!”
“This kid, alright, we’ll accept your drink, but tonight, we don’t have to eat here, let’s go to my place,” Aunt Fay suggested. Among them, only Aunt Fay and Aunt Ann owned houses. The others rented, living conditions were not great, just a bit better than the countryside.
“No can do, Aunt Fay. Now that I’ve started earning, I must treat you guys. You can’t refuse today,” Finn quickly stepped in, he had something to discuss in the evening and couldn’t possibly go from one house to the next.
“Fine, we’ll all go to my house this afternoon. It’s been a long time since we all gathered together, we’ll come back tonight,” Aunt Fay agreed, laughing.
The rest also agreed as they had taken the day off. After the meal, little Zoe had become quite attached to her parents, who she had been living with for the past few days. Despite her young age, she was quite sensitive to changes and could tell who truly cared for her. So it was only after about a week or so that she had become extremely attached to Finn’s parents.
After all, Zoe had never really had parents, and she probably felt a sense of comfort from them.
“Huh? This is your car?” Sophie was surprised when they had exited the restaurant and she saw Finn’s car for the first time.
“Yes, come on, tell me the way, let’s go shopping,” Finn urged.
“Wait, listen, giving directions is quite troublesome. Besides, I just got my driving license, how about I drive?” Sophie gave it some thought and offered to drive. She hadn’t had her license for long and upon seeing Finn’s impressive car, couldn’t resist wanting to try.
“Sure,” Finn nodded decisively.
“Give me the keys,” Sophie immediately asked for them while heading towards the driver’s side.
“No need for keys, just open the door,” Finn replied, chuckling.
“No need for keys?” Sophie looked at Finn with suspicion, but still reached out to pull the car door handle. With a ‘click,’ the door opened, “Did you forget to lock the door?” Sophie asked, caught off guard.
“We’ll talk about it when we get in,” Finn said with a smile, and proceeded to open the passenger side door and get into the car. Fishy Wells naturally sat in the back seat.
“Wow,” Sophie couldn’t help but exclaim when she got into the car. Unlike Fay Wells and Hazel Lewis, as a tour guide, Sophie had seen many more things and her experiences couldn’t be compared to that of the older generation, “This car must have cost a fortune, right? Based on the interior, it’s got to be worth over a million at least!”
“Olivia, greet her,” Finn didn’t reply to Sophie but gestured at the air. “Miss Sophie Lee, hello,” Olivia Thatcher’s voice resonated through the car.
“What…?” Sophie was startled. If Finn hadn’t started the conversation, perhaps she might have jumped in surprise.
“This is the car’s integrated Al software. It controls the whole car, so there’s no need for keys. When you get out of the car, it will automatically lock, and when you approach the car, it will unlock the doors,” Finn explained with a smirk.
“Is this for real? You’re really something now! How much is this car? Come out with it,” Sophie wasn’t easy to fool. The car’s tech was far too advanced; although she had been in numerous vehicles worth over a million, none were as extravagant as this car..
