Leon rolled his eyes so hard that if there were an accompanying sound it would have been jarring. Though not extremely well-versed in parenting, he still thought he had a better grasp on it than Elsbeth. At least he had the sense to hire someone with the know-how anyway. So he simply nodded in response and chose to ignore her comment for the most part.
"Glad to hear it." At least she was occupied. A bored Elsbeth was never a good thing in his book. It usually meant trouble of some kind. "I'm sure it was entertaining." Leon had a specific idea of what kinds of things he enjoyed and while he enjoyed socializing, he wasn't entirely sure what was essentially a street party, was not really his cup of tea.
Thankfully he was spared saying anything else as dinner was served and he took a moment to tuck in, trying not to let on as to how hungry he actually was. Savoring the roast, he washed it down with his wine and leaned back between bites. "I'll have to stop in to see Leo before I retire." Honestly he preferred the tyke's company to his wife's.
