Early in the morning on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, Charlie and his family packed their bags and prepared to head to the airport for a rare vacation.
Jacob initially suggested driving his Cullinan to the airport, but then he hesitated. After all, they would be gone for a total of 5 days and 4 nights, and upon returning, he would drive the Cullinan back home. In his words, the main advantage was that he wouldn’t have to take a taxi, especially since they were bringing a lot of luggage, making taxi rides quite inconvenient.
Charlie understood that for his father-in-law, even a trip to buy a pack of cigarettes required driving. He always seized every chance to flaunt that he owned a Rolls-Royce.
Charlie didn’t see any issue with it at all. His father-in-law had always been this way, so he was fine with going along with it. However, Claire felt a bit disheartened, thinking her father was just looking to show off the Cullinan. After all, it was a gift from Michaela, meant to benefit Charlie. Her father’s use of the car felt more like wielding someone else’s status.
She suggested, “How about we take a taxi instead? It would be more convenient for four people to ride in a business car. Airport parking is quite expensive, nearly $200 for a day without a cap, which is much more costly than round trips. Plus, the airport parking spaces aren’t very large. Dad, if you park such an expensive car there for days, and someone scratches it, won’t you feel upset?”
