Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance
Chapter 710

Bruce also thought the stroller his sister bought was totally unnecessary. "Our kid doesn't need a stroller. We can just carry him when we go out."

But Henry loved the stroller from his aunt and uncle. As soon as he lay down in it, he'd start babbling happily and play with the little fish toy hanging there. When he hit the tray in front of him, music would start playing, making Henry fall completely in love with his new ride!

He'd cry when picked up but be all smiles in the stroller.

Frustrated, Hansen called his daughter at work, "Why did you spend so much money on this stroller for Henry? He won't even let me hold him now." Molly, who was with Coleen, said, "Mom, Dad's nagging me again."

Coleen advised, "Just let him rant."

Feeling scolded, Jade sent her nephew an even more entertaining toy: a little windmill for Henry's stroller. Even the slightest movement made it spin. Henry was captivated. Even when his grandpa tried to play with him, he wouldn't look away, babbling excitedly.

Hansen pointed at the windmill, "Molly did this on purpose! She definitely did it on purpose!"

Chad got another angry call from his father-in-law, "Chad, can't you do something about her?"

Officer Chad replied, "...I'll handle it when I get home tonight."

Later, seeing her son being the center of attention at the Cedillos and making the old man even more upset, Mia decided to take Henry back to Maplewood Estates to cool Hansen's temper. But Hansen was the first to say no, and he even took his grandson out more often to visit friends.

As a result, Henry quickly became a favorite of the Molls. Initially, their living room was filled with Henry's cries, and it took all three elders to soothe him, but he would only calm down in Hansen's arms. After some time, Henry warmed up to Harry too, showing no stranger anxiety.

The Molls gradually found it hard to let Henry go, "Old Jiang, you already have little Mia. Why don't you leave your grandson with us? We'll take care of him for you."

Hansen objected, "No way! Mia goes to school every day, and I rely on this little guy to keep me company."

Every visit to the Molls ended in a bit of a struggle, with Henry drooling and smiling adorably, unaware of the grandparents vying for his attention.

Mia and Andre had to visit the Molls daily to pick up the grandfather-grandson duo.

Whenever Henry saw his parents, he'd kick excitedly, babbling in joy.

Leo's marriage had become a hot topic, all because of a trending social media post.

The butterfly effect started with a Cedillo Group employee's comment, "Andre's holding the baby, leaving Leo to lead the meeting..." This sparked movements in the business world, drawing attention to Leo. Everyone knew that a high-ranking man like Andre wouldn't fail to prepare a successor. With the company's internal feedback and only having his nephew previously, many believed Leo would become the new guiding light for the Cedillo family. Even if he wasn't to inherit the company, anyone groomed by Andre for such a role couldn't be ordinary.

Businessmen capable of engaging Andre in conversation were neither simple nor short-sighted.

Some even brought their daughters to Cedillo Inc., under the guise of discussing partnerships with Andre, but their real aim was to increase their daughters' chances of meeting Leo.

Andre was well aware.

"Mr. Sinclair, if you bring your daughter here, my wife won't let it go easily," Andre said with a smile. "Mia has set a rule: no female visitors in the office. If I break that rule, I'll probably be sleeping in the study tonight."

Mr. Sinclair laughed heartily, "With your status, Andre, how could you be controlled by the women at home?"

Andre smiled thinly, his eyes cooling, "I'm henpecked."

Mr. Sinclair's laughter turned awkward, "Then, to avoid putting Andre in a difficult position, I'll come alone next time." By mentioning a next time, he implied leaving his daughter behind now to create an opportunity for her and Leo.

Andre, knowing full well the intentions of these sly foxes, smoothly said, "Mia will be out of school soon. She comes to my office after school, and it would be hard to explain if you run into each other."

A lady nearby asked, puzzled, "School? Mr. Jiang, is your wife a student?"

Andre nodded, "She's a university student."

Soon, cries echoed from Andre's resting room, surprising the Sun family. "That's..."

"Please excuse me, my son came to the office with me today and was sleeping in the resting room."

Andre opened the bedroom door, entering to lift the loudly crying bundle of joy into his arms.

The weather being warm, Henry was in a thin onesie, his chubby form more visible.

His little hands clutched at his dad's shirt buttons, his tears soaking the fabric, but he calmed down after a while.

"Mr. Jiang, may I hold him?" Vivian eagerly asked.

Andre replied, "He's quite fussy. Apart from his mom and me, he cries with others."

As Andre pondered how to politely ask the guests to leave, the office door burst open without a knock.

The girl who entered had a slight blush from running, a sheen of sweat at her temples, holding a textbook in her hand. Upon seeing her, Henry, resting on his dad's shoulder, buzzed excitedly. Mia entered, "Oh, we have guests."

She placed her book on the desk and walked over to pick up her cooing son, who flailed excitedly in his mother's arms, babbling joyfully.

Andre stood up, his wife's arrival providing the perfect excuse. "Mr. Sinclair, let's catch up some other time. My household inspector here has just arrived."

Being jokingly referred to as the "household inspector" by her husband, Mia's wheels started turning, and she decided to lean into the role. "Son, tell mom, what has daddy been up to today?" She appeared to be asking their chubby little boy, but her words were intentionally dropped for all to hear.

Mr. Sinclair got up with his daughter, "Then Andre, let's have a detailed chat some other time. Sorry for the inconvenience today. I'll make it up to you with a drink next time."

"Big bro Jiang, we'll take our leave then."

Mia said with a smile, "My husband seems to be quite popular, huh? So many 'sisters.' Molly would probably get jealous if she knew."

From the moment his wife appeared, the smile in Andre's eyes grew deeper, filled with adoration. Even when his wife came to settle scores with him, he didn't show the slightest irritation, telling the Sun father and daughter, "That's just how she is, and our son has inherited his mom's temper."
