Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

In the car, Andre spoke softly to his petite wife, "Mia, those four are just here to watch me make a fool of myself. Tonight, when we get back, you can vent all you want, but in front of them, can you save a bit of face for your husband?" After all, Andre was used to being the proud one in front of those four.

Mia spread out her small hands, "A cameo, hot for just 3 minutes; a special guest, responsible for only 5 minutes; a supporting role, with an unpredictable ending; the leading lady, ending in a joyous reunion. Husband, you decide."

Andre immediately called Noah, "Transfer another $521,000 to your sister-in-law's account." After hanging up, Andre still held the phone, looking at his wife, wondering if this amount of money would be enough to engage Mrs. Cedillo for her stellar performance! Mrs. Cedillo reluctantly nodded, "Alright, then." After all, he was her husband, and it was only fair to give him some face, especially since she had also asked for quite a few treats today.

Noah, risking his neck, asked, "Boss, did you not appease her? Or did you offend her again?"

Andre replied, "It's the leading lady's appearance fee."

Noah was puzzled, utterly confused.

End of call.

Mia, holding her chubby son, started happily counting the money received.

Noah sent a message to his superior, "Boss, should we congratulate the madam on becoming the richest woman?"

Andre texted back, "No need."

Otherwise, his wife's appearance fee might go even higher in the future.

Upon arriving at the Cedillo residence, Mia got out of the car, dragging her little 'tiger' along.

In the living room, Mars coughed awkwardly, signaling to everyone that the show was about to begin.

Just before entering the house, Andre couldn't help but pull his little wife aside, "Mia, was the money enough?"

Mia, holding their chubby little son, frowned, "Husband, do you really not trust me?"

Mia shook off her husband's hand and went inside first with the child. Andre followed closely, carrying several shopping bags in as well.

Upon Mia's arrival in the living room, everyone immediately stood up.

Molly, munching on a banana, leaned against Chad and whispered, "Chad, do you think our Andre will fall from grace?"

Chad confidently said, "No."

Molly grabbed another banana, handing it to Chad, "Chad, peel it for me, I want another."

The Cedillo family was smart not to compete for Henry's attention the first time he came back.

Because the four brothers' hands all reached out towards the chubby little one, Henry cleverly wrapped his arms tightly around his mother's neck, not daring to let these would-be kidnapper godfathers take him away. "Andre is back?"

"What did he do?"

"Yo, what are those gift bags for? Looks like he bought a lot of good stuff, must be to apologize, right?"

The four, chattering away, took the child from them, their gazes darting between the couple.

A deal's a deal when money is received.

Mia's eyes twinkled as she looked at the men.

Suddenly, she turned around, went to her husband, and pushed the chubby little one into his arms, speaking in a playful voice, "Husband, you've worked hard. I'll go make some tea for you guys." Andre: "......"

Everyone looked puzzled at Mrs. Cedillo, including the Cedillos themselves.

Wasn't she crying and making a scene just yesterday? And now they've made up? Seeing the new bracelet on her wrist, the Cedillos seemed to understand something.

Mia, carrying tea prepared by the servant, placed it on the coffee table, "Husband, you guys don't get together often. I had the servants clean the upstairs cinema room.

After dinner, you can go watch a game there, chat a bit. I'll take care of the child."

Hansen was curious. Something was off about Mia?

Andre didn't dare to accept his little wife's enthusiasm.

Naomi also found it unbelievable; their lazy and warm little one never got involved in these matters.

Molly, eating her banana, was stunned watching her sister. Seeing the diligent Mrs. Cedillo, after a few seconds, she remained calm and indifferent. She was definitely bought off with money. The four men sensed something was wrong. This wasn't what they had expected.

Soon, the four insisted on pulling Mia into their conversation.

Conner said, "No need to fuss, we're all family here. Too polite. We rarely see each other; let's chat. Mrs. Cedillo, how have you been feeling lately?"

"My mood," Mia began, locking eyes

with her husband. Molly also

stopped her fruit-eating antics, everyone tensely watching Mrs.

Cedillo For those few secondsnet

Andre tried to look calm, his

slightly anxious. "Very good"

Some were disappointed, others relieved. Molly soon ate another banana, handing one to Chad as well.

Conner, seeking revenge, said, "Today, Andre mentioned he went out to buy you an apology gift. We thought you were in a bad mood." They all came to see Andre's embarrassment.

Mia looked at the 'instigator,' sending a warning glance to everyone, "Of course, I'm in a good mood. I've even made a new friend recently, named: Annie."

Conner suddenly fell silent, the other three brothers looking towards Officer Chapman's fiancé.

Mia continued to push, "Do you know her? Smart, beautiful, capable, and straightforward. A shining star at the police department, a real catch for whoever marries her."

After finishing, Mia looked at Andre, "Husband, I heard Noah is single, right? Officer Chapman too. Maybe you can play matchmaker someday. I think they'd make a good pair." Andre nodded, "As my wife wishes."

Conner panicked, "Wait, wait, wait, little sister-in-law, hold on."novelbin

He blurted out 'sister-in-law' in his urgency.

Mia looked innocently at the one calling her to stop, "What's wrong? Have you been feeling down lately?"

Conner was at a loss for words, "That, about your new friend... she has a fiancé."

Mia, acting surprised, "Really? She didn't tell me that. I think that must be false. Did you hear some gossip and got fooled?"

The "fiancé", at a loss for words.

The other three brothers, now understanding, dared not laugh at Andre anymore. Mrs. Cedillo had turned the topic to Conner, hitting him right where it hurt.

Andre, looking at his clever little wife, smiled indulgently.

Four people were itching to dig into

the gossip about a certain couple, and little Mia immediately singled one out to make an example, establishing her dominance.

Unfortunately for Conner, he was the

untucky one to face the music.

It served as an indirect warning to the others to be careful not to draw unwanted attention to themselves.

Conner admitted defeat. Looking at his adorably plump godson, he asked, "Henry, what are you looking at?" Henry's gaze was fixed on his aunt and uncle the entire time.

He drooled as he watched his aunt eating fruit.

Eventually, Chad broke a banana he was eating in half and stood up to give it to his nephew.

Henry enthusiastically raised his hands to take the banana and just as he was about to eat it, his uncle seized the opportunity to scoop him up in his arms.

Chad carried his nephew back to sit next to Molly.

It was the familiar comfort of his uncle's embrace, so Henry didn't cry.

Taking Chad's cue, the next second Teddy followed suit by offering food, snatching the little dumpling from Chad's embrace.
