Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance -
Chapter 845
When Leo opened his laptop to access Anya's computer screen, Anya was clueless about what Chad had typed. Before she could even process it, her entire browsing history was staring back at her.
Leo scrolled through the list, "You started watching at 4 PM and didn't stop until 9:30 PM; last night you were still at it at 2 AM, and the day before, you kept going until 3 AM... One series a day, Anya, you're even more into this than Henry." Anya blinked in disbelief. She had just deleted her history, thinking that would make it disappear.
"Chad, the browser tricked me! It said once I deleted it, no one could see it."
"That might be true for others, but don't you know what your boyfriend does for work?"
Anya bit her tongue, deciding to stay quiet.
Leo leaned back in his chair, eyeing his girlfriend, whose face had rounded from indulging in too much comfort food, "Start packing your bags."
"Chad~ If I come over, I'll just be a nuisance."
Leo grinned, "I chose this 'nuisance' as my girlfriend, so I'll just have to bear it."
Seeing that it was getting late, he added, "Let's wrap this up for today. Get some sleep. Tomorrow, I'll check if you've packed properly."
Leo had been plotting to bring Anya over for a while, and he wasn't about to back down now.
Anya puffed her cheeks, giving Leo a look filled with mock despair, not realizing her binge-watching had earned her an early trip to Havenbrook. "Chad, I really don't want to go."
Leo replied, "Whether you want to or not, you have to come. If you don't, someone else might start eyeing your boyfriend."
Anya asked, "When are you coming to get me, Chad?"
Leo smiled with satisfaction, "I'll be there on the 22nd."
After hanging up, Leo felt too distracted to study, disliking the day's pointless socializing that seemed to be a favorite among businessmen.
He glanced at his phone and saw Mia's latest post about little chubby Henry.
Henry had gotten clever; he knew that when his parents held him, they'd eventually set him down. So, whenever they tried to make him stand, he'd cling to his little legs and cry his heart out, refusing to let his feet touch the ground. Mia, pulling on Henry's legs, was amazed by his strength. "All that eating wasn't in vain; he's really strong."
Andre picked his son up again, with Henry snuggling tightly against his neck, nibbling him to show affection, finally calming down.
Andre soothed his son, patting his back until Henry, too lazy to even yawn, fell asleep on his shoulder.
Leo, watching the video, chuckled, "Lazy Henry, falling asleep before he even moves."
Molly saw the clip too and quipped, "Henry is definitely lazier than me."
Kendrick, ever curious, loved watching videos of the Cedillo family's little bundle of joy. Whenever his daughter had a new video, he'd rush to watch. This time, Molly handed her phone to her dad and headed to Coleen's study. "Mom, I need to talk to you." Coleen replied, "If it's important, sit down; if not, out you go."
Molly sat down, surprising Coleen, "What important matter could you have?"
Molly said, "Mom, please don't judge me; that's not fair."
Coleen sighed, "I know my own daughter. Just spill it; I'm busy."
Luckily, Coleen's latest project didn't involve any contracts, or she'd have faced bigger losses, including penalties and refunds.
"Mom, maybe you should check on cousin Saul?"
Coleen frowned, "He's not even in the company anymore; I moved him to a shell company. Why bring him up?"
Molly shared her suspicions, though lacking evidence, about Saul possibly holding a grudge against Coleen for stripping away his power within the company.
Coleen pondered, showing she wasn't entirely convinced of Saul's innocence.
Molly, sensing her mother's doubts, left the subject, "Alright, I've said my bit. I'm heading out."
After Molly left, she noticed her dad still glued to her phone, "Molly, come see Henry. Mia's teasing the sleepy kid again, making him cry with his eyes closed." Molly joined him, watching as Mia tempted a sleepy Henry with a delicious slice of pizza, trying to wake him.
Henry turned his face away, uninterested.
Mia persisted, bringing the pizza closer, but Henry snuggled into his dad's arms.
Mia pinched her son's chubby cheek, trying to rouse him, "Aren't you a little foodie? Why won't you wake up?" Andre's voice came through the video, "Stop teasing him, or he'll start crying again and be hard to calm down."
Mia laughed, "He's just a little piglet, easy to feed and put to sleep."
Henry frowned, as if protesting being called a piglet, and burst into tears, "Ah~ Waa, mommy, mommy."
Mia quickly ate the pizza slice and picked up her crying son, "Alright, alright, no more teasing, time to sleep, my sweet."
The one who made him cry was now soothing him.
Andre teased, "You just can't help yourself, can you?"
His wife gave him a playful glare.
Molly watched her nephew's adorable pout as he cried, his tiny mouth wide open. She thought, "Dad, I'm going to visit my nephew. Want to come?" Kendrick felt awkward about going over; it seemed like they were intruding on family time in the video.
Kendrick said, "Why don't you just sneak him over here?"
"Can't do that anymore; they're on to me."
Molly grabbed her pajamas, ready to leave. “So, not coming back tonight?” Kendrick asked.
