Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 189

After he had spoken, he stood up, took his wife by the hand, and led her back to the office.

Mia didn't want to step foot in the study. But if she didn't, her husband would chew her out in public. Rather than that, she'd prefer to close the door, let him criticize her in private, where she might have a chance to plead with him.

At this moment, she didn't feel tough at all.

...

In the following days, Mia was the center of attention at school, being chauffeured back and forth.

Her husband, Andre, would occasionally flip through her book a few times when he had nothing to do. He felt somewhat uncomfortable when he noticed that there were no drawings of his wife in it.

The most peculiar one was Jade. Every day, she would arrive punctually at the classroom. When she left, either Chad would pick her up personally, or Coleen, or the Byrne family's driver.

Jade asked Mia, "Why has your husband been so attentive to you recently?"

"Because I drew his picture into a pig's head, he found out and as punishment, he's been dropping me off and picking me up from school every day, letting everyone know that he's my husband."

Mia asked back, "Why have you been so busy lately, Jade?"

"Because my brother and my mom said that there's a serial killer on the loose in Havenbrook who targets pretty girls. My brother says I'm too pretty and I'm definitely the killer's target, so my dad, mom, brother, and driver are taking turns picking me up."

Mia nodded.

Leo had already started to review old knowledge in preparation for the upcoming exams.

The weather had turned cold. In the classroom, students kept the windows closed, so the classroom felt a bit stuffy. Many students would come to the classroom to nap on their desks after lunch, while others would study.

"Mia, where did Leo go?" Jade was the first to realize that Leo was missing.

Mia turned around and said, "Yeah, where did he go? It's so cold outside, and his coat is still on his desk."

The classroom was very quiet. Mia and Jade stood up and quietly left the classroom to call Leo. They called once, but nobody answered.

The second time, Leo answered the phone, "Back door of the school, alley, need help."

After he'd spoken, the phone dropped to the ground. Mia could still hear a woman crying and shouting: stop hitting him. Mia and Jade looked at each other and immediately ran towards the back door of the school.

When they arrived, they saw a woman crying and shouting for the men to stop. Leo was on the ground, with seven men kicking and punching him, and another man with an injured face sitting to the side, pointing at Leo on the ground and cursing, "Kill him, he meddled in my business. He's asking for it."

Seeing Leo being beaten, Mia was furious. She gritted her teeth, "You think I won't fight back if you mess with him!"

Seeing Leo being beaten, Jade felt heartbroken and very angry. "You deal with the guys beating up Leo, I'll take care of Leo."

Mia clenched her fists and charged into the crowd. Although Leo was like a lackey to Mia and Jade, always being bullied by them, he was also like their little brother who they needed to protect.

Outside, no one dared to bully Leo except Mia and Jade. This time, some thugs actually dared to bully Leo under their watch.

In elementary school, when someone saw Mia ordering Leo around, they also wanted to bully Leo, making him do their homework and clean. But before Leo could react, Mia found out about it and got angry. In the classroom, in front of everyone, she fought with the girl who wanted to bully Leo. The girl didn't even have a chance to fight back, completely suppressed by Mia.

Her every punch landed on the girl, which soon caught the attention of the parents.

Even though Mia was criticized by the teachers and parents, no one in the class dared to bully Leo again.
