Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance
Chapter 748

After dinner, Leo's car was looking as good as new. He dropped Anya off at the Cedillo residence, even though it was the middle of the night. "Don't be stubborn. I'm perfectly capable and don't need you looking after me. Enjoy your summer break. Jade's practically

working full-time now and is envious of your vacation."

Anya stayed silent, her rebellion unspoken.

Later that evening, as Hansen was about to head to bed, Anya knocked on his door, "Grandpa, I brought you something delicious~"

Hansen immediately got out of bed.

At Maplewood Estates:

Mia was chasing her husband playfully, batting her eyelashes, "Honey, what have you been doing for Leo?"

Andre stubbornly replied, "Nothing."

Mia teased, "Dare to let me check your phone?"

Holding his phone and recalling the job link Teddy had sent him the night before, Andre said, "Mia, there's an opening for the Executive Secretary at the company, are you interested in..."

"I'm not interested," Mia cut him off sharply and walked away.

Andre chuckled softly as he watched his wife walk away, then opened his phone and deleted the link his friend had sent.

Mia turned to ask Leo directly.

The next day, there was no one to take care of Henry, and Mia had exams at school the day after tomorrow. With five exams in three days, her study time was as precious as gold.

Andre had social obligations today and couldn't take his "little shadow" to the office.

Since the household staff wasn't available to tend to Henry, Madison was called to Maplewood Estates.

What followed at Maplewood Estates was a scene of Henry quietly playing with toys while his mother studied her books. He played quietly with his grandmother, occasionally lying on the floor, looking up at his mother, who was by the window, reciting her study notes. "The assumption behind the irrelevance theory of dividends is that the company's investment policy is set..." Mia stumbled mid-sentence, glanced at her book, and continued, "The assumption behind the irrelevance theory of dividends is..."

She started over from the beginning.

Even Henry was fascinated.

Madison advised, "Don't just memorize it by rote; you need to understand the meaning."

Mia got stuck again, "Mom, how am I supposed to understand this? Just give me a long formula, and I can't even understand it. If I can memorize it, that's good enough for the exam."

Then, Mia continued to study by the window.

"You don't get it, let Andre teach you tonight."

Mia responded, "I already asked my husband to look at it. He said the formula was complicated and told me to memorize the concept to understand it first."

Madison, holding her little grandson, slowly approached her daughter who was studying. "Let me see if I understand it."

At Cedillo Inc., in the CEO's office:

Andre made a phone call to his brother, "Cancel the recruitment link. Leo won't be attending."

"You knew?"

Andre hummed in acknowledgment, and Teddy said, "I did the favor you asked, but you'll still have to lend me the kids for a couple of days."

Andre replied, "Maybe in a few years."

Teddy felt, "..."

He now understood how Mars felt every time Andre tricked him!

Later, Andre explained, "Henry is still young, he can't be away from me and his mom. If I gave him to you, he would just cry."

"That's okay, I'll come to Havenbrook. If he cries, I'll just bring him back to you," Teddy said.

Having previously met the adorable Henry, Teddy couldn't stay put and insisted on visiting Havenbrook to see his godson. Moreover, who knows how long Andre's "few years" would be? By then, he might forget. Conner found out and said, "Damn, meeting my son behind my back? I'm coming too."

Asher remarked, "Shameless."

Then, he too booked a flight to Havenbrook.

The next morning, Andre dropped his wife off at the school entrance. He looked around, seeing no familiar cars.

"Son, give mommy a kiss for good luck," Mia said, holding her son and presenting her cheek to him.

Henry was uncooperative.

Then Andre went over and kissed his wife, and Henry, feeling possessive, immediately lunged to kiss the spot his dad had kissed.

"You little rascal, kiss the cheek. Your dad kissed the lips; you should kiss the cheek," Mia, initially unloved by her son, now had to dodge to avoid his kisses.

Finally, with her face covered in saliva, Mia left the car.

After securing Henry in his child seat, Mia told her husband as she was leaving, "Anya doesn't have an exam today, but she has one tomorrow afternoon." With that, Mia took her student ID and ran off.

Andre stood there, looking at his son, who was dressed stylishly and cutely by his wife today, and smiled.

Leo, seeing that the recruitment link for Cedillo Inc. was down, felt better than ever.

He called Anya, "Anya, let's go out on a date."

At the same time, at Cedillo Inc.:

Two distinguished gentlemen had joined Andre in his office.

With their handsome appearances and always in formal attire, their charm was only deepened.

At that moment, Henry, feeling nervous, clung to his father, eyeing the godfathers who came to dote on him.

"Are there two more?" Andre asked.

Teddy replied, "They're flying here."

By the afternoon, all four had arrived.

They made themselves at home at Cedillo Inc., walking straight into the CEO's private elevator without greeting.

Upon arrival, they immediately scooped Henry from the sofa into their arms, inhaling his baby scent, "Son, did you miss your godfather?"

Henry frowned, unimpressed by the attention.

Soon, he was passed to another set of arms, "Let godfather hold you too."

Henry's frown persisted.

Mars commented, "How come you've learned to frown like your dad at such a young age?"

Eventually, Henry looked towards his father, seeing that his dad wasn't holding him either. The next second, his eyes closed, his mouth opened, and tears and cries emerged simultaneously. Henry's heart-wrenching cries startled the godfathers, but his father laughed.

Noah, who came to deliver documents, remained calm.

Around five in the afternoon, after finishing her exams and with some time to spare, Mia headed straight to the company.

Upon arrival, she found her husband's office occupied by four impeccably dressed men, all doting on her son. Seeing his mother, Henry cried once more.

In the span of an afternoon, the godfathers had come to understand their godson's temperament: he was a crier.

Mia slung her bag over one shoulder, lifting her pudgy, crying baby son. "Honey, I'll take the baby home first and ask the kitchen to start dinner. You finish up your work and come home early."

Andre nodded. "Let Noah escort you."

Mia waved off the offer. "It's alright, I'll just grab a cab with our son."

She nodded to everyone, "Carry on with your work. See you all at dinner."

After Mia left, Andre's desk was immediately surrounded by colleagues.

Teddy took a seat opposite him, while Asher and Conner casually sat on Andre's desk. White, with one arm resting on the back of Andre's executive chair, leaned in from behind. "Andre, your wife seems different from before. Wasn't she always picking fights, getting into trouble, and having to make trips to the station? Now, she's all homely and nurturing?"

Andre replied with a steady gaze, "My Mia has always been a gem!"

The translation and adaptation focus on maintaining the essence of the original text while replacing cultural specifics with more general or Western equivalents, such as using "hail a cab" instead of specific Chinese transport references, and altering the descriptions to fit a broader audience's understanding without diluting the novel's romantic and domestic nuances.
