BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66 A Happy Family 1
Soon, Sarah returned with the details handled. As Dante had called his agent about the purchase he was about to make, the bank authorized the charge to his account by PowerMotors Outlet without a hitch.
Since his mother was not here, Dante registered both cars in his name and paid out the premium for the car insurance at the comprehensive level.
With the paperwork completed and the financial transactions settled, Dante was now the proud owner of a Bentley Continental GT and a Range Rover Velar. As he stepped out of the dealership, keys in hand, a surge of juvenile excitement washed over him.
The afternoon sun reflected off the sleek exteriors of the luxury vehicles, emphasizing their elegance and power. Dante approached the Bentley Continental GT, running his fingers along the smooth curves and feeling the coolness of the paintwork beneath his touch.
Opening the door, he settled into the plush leather seat, breathing in the distinctive scent of a brand-new car. That scent was something that every vehicle purchaser loved the most.
As he turned the key in the ignition, the engine roared to life, its powerful hum resonating through the air. Dante could feel the subtle vibrations beneath him, a testament to the raw energy that lay within the vehicle.
With a gentle touch, he maneuvered the car onto the urban city roads, a smile spreading across his face.
Driving the Bentley Continental GT, Dante felt an undeniable sense of presence and authority. The responsive handling and precision of the steering wheel made navigating the busy streets effortless. The engine\'s deep growl resonated through the cabin, captivating both the driver and passersby.
With each press of the accelerator, Dante experienced a surge of exhilaration as the car effortlessly glided forward, the speedometer climbing rapidly. The seamless gear shifts and smooth acceleration further enhanced the driving experience, merging power and control into a harmonious symphony.
As he made his way through the city, Dante couldn\'t help but notice the admiring glances from pedestrians and fellow drivers. The Bentley Continental GT\'s timeless design and refined aesthetics turned heads at every intersection. It was a statement of luxury and prestige, a symbol of success and accomplishment.
After a while, Dante decided to switch to the Range Rover Velar, eager to explore its capabilities. He left the Bentley at the parking spot of his apartment and then took an Uber back to the car dealership.
Sliding into the driver\'s seat, he instantly felt the commanding view of the road that an SUV provided. The spacious interior embraced him with its comfort and cutting-edge technology.
With the Range Rover Velar\'s versatile capabilities, Dante effortlessly transitioned from the city streets to the open road. The advanced suspension system absorbed any imperfections in the asphalt, providing a smooth and refined ride. The panoramic sunroof filled the cabin with natural light, adding to the sense of freedom and adventure.
Driving the Range Rover Velar, Dante felt a sense of adventure and possibility. The SUV\'s powerful engine and impressive off-road capabilities allowed him to explore new horizons, from scenic country roads to rugged terrains. It was a vehicle that embraced both style and substance, enabling him to embark on various journeys with confidence.
As Dante navigated the urban city roads in his newly acquired luxury vehicles, he couldn\'t help but revel in the sheer pleasure of the experience. Finally, he couldn\'t help but drive towards his true home in the top residential area of the city.
When Dante arrived at his gate, he grinned as Eduardo, their gatekeeper, glanced at the sleek car with envy. When he saw Dante roll down the window, his eyes almost popped out of his sockets and his jaw dropped.
Laughing, Dante switched off the engine and got down before walking towards Eduardo\'s booth. He patted the fellow on the shoulder and left some playful words behind.
"Remember Eduardo, this is what happens when you game the matrix."
Eduardo was dumbfounded. Immediately he scrambled and switched his TV from some Mexican cartoons to podcasts of Andrew Tate. His eyes became red as he absorbed the \'holy words\' with fervor, hoping to become rich.
Dante pushed opened the door to his house and saw his father seated on the cough while fiddling with his tablet. He was playing a 3D design game that allowed one to build complex cityscapes. His mother was lying on the same cough, her head in his father\'s lap as she red a romance novel on her Iphone.
When they heard the door open both turned to see their only son enter the house with a wide grin. Immediately, his mother jumped up in joy and walked over briskly, while Dante\'s father looked away and continued his game calmly.
"My darling boy, how are you?" Aileen asked while glancing Dante up and down.
Dante hugged her tightly and kissed both of her cheeks, making his mother exclaim. "I\'m fine, mom. More than fine, in fact."
Aileen seemed overjoyed. "Dante, you seem happy. Did something good happen?"
Dante grinned. "Come with me mom and you\'ll see."
Dante grabbed his mother\'s small hand and led her out of the house in a hurry. When she saw the crazed Eduardo who was 110% focused, she was amused. However, she could no longer laugh when she saw her dream car, a Range Rover Velar with the specif alloy wheels she liked.
She just froze on the spot, confused and wondering whether she was dreaming. Meanwhile, Dante gently rubbed his mother\'s shoulders and pried open her palm, placing the car keys into it.
"For you, my darling mother who is obviously the most beautiful in the world."
Hearing this, Aileen snapped out of her stupor and her eyes became red. A surge of emotions welled up in her chest and she felt deeply stifled. She remembered that when Dante was 13 years old, she had purposefully skipped work that day to bring him and his friends to an indoor resort to play.
Dante had been excited and proud that day, and that outing was the big talk of his school batch for that year and even the next, making his social standing rise greatly among his friends. Dante had been so happy and grateful to his mom back then.
He had rushed into her arms and professed how much he loved her which made Aileen feel satisfied. Then the young Dante asked what she wanted for her birthday and she had told him her dream car\'s specifications.
The young Dante swore that one day, he would buy it for his mother. Aileen had simply laughed and stroked his head back then. After all, given their family situation, she could also afford one herself with ease.
However, anyone who was an adult and paid bills knew that you couldn\'t easily indulge in flights of fancy in today\'s world where emergencies and sudden bills could slap you in the face and cripple you.
Still, seeing it now, Aileen felt so much love for her son. He had actually remembered her little wish back then and made it come true!
Aileen walked forward and touched the car with a fascinated look. Meanwhile, David, his father, had come out of the house and had seen everything. A light of pride for his son flickered in his eyes as he calmly walked over and placed a hand on Dante\'s shoulder.
He simply glanced at his son and nodded. "Good job, son."
Dante smiled. "Don\'t worry pops, I haven\'t forgotten you. Call Uncle Peter and let\'s head over to Micro Center."
David\'s eyes flashed. "Oh? Dante, are you sure you can afford your father and your uncles\' huge appetites?"
"Ha, if I can\'t afford it, then we\'ll just rob the store and run." Dante joked as he noticed that his mother had entered the car and started it up.
"Well, at least we have our designated driver. Your mother will definitely want to take the car for a spin, so let\'s go." David prompted as he moved to sit in the passenger seat while his wife chattered about her joy.
David sat beside her and glanced at her with a soft smile, seemingly enjoying her happiness. Dante stood outside and watched this with a strange feeling welling in his heart.
Everything he had endured since he went to the Eternal Universe, the troublesome Beatrice, the uncertainty and fear, the constant need to be alert and be in guard, getting mauled by those dogs, killing beings in the Apocalypse World, all that tough training as well as the attack from the teachers.
Everything seemed to fade into the back of his mind and became experiences for him, rather than constant worries and trauma that stayed at the forefront of his mind. In this moment, apart from his raw ambition for success and greatness, Dante also developed another reason to go on, which was to maintain this kind of scene and keep this feeling in his chest alive for as long as he could.
