The morning bustle was abruptly interrupted and Mia was thoroughly pissed off.
"Hurt?" Andre asked.
"Do you think?" Mia retorted angrily.
Last night, Andre had seen a stain of pure blood on the bedsheet, looking at his adorable wife beneath him who seemed to want to bite him to pieces. He got up and released her. "You should skip school today and rest at home. You didn't really get any sleep last night."
Mia picked up the pillow from the bed and hurled it at Andre, "Get out!"
Andre caught the pillow and placed it at the foot of the bed, "I'm going to change my clothes again." The clothes he just changed into were a mess.
On the bed, Mia wrapped herself in the blanket, only showing her small face. She was too embarrassed to get up and had to change her clothes until Andre left.
Soon, Andre came out and saw his wife wrapped up again, "After you fell asleep last night, I carried you to take a shower."
Mia was stunned. So he had already seen her body?
Andre continued, "I've already bought a new phone for you, and it'll be delivered soon."
Mia blamed her husband in her heart, “It was you who broke my phone in the first place!”
Andre put on his watch and looked at the person on the bed with a smile, "You've tested it. I'm fine."
Mia's eyelashes lowered, like two small fans about to close. After reorganizing himself, Andre sat down on the edge of the bed.
Mia moved away from him, "Don't come near me."
"Mia, you just experienced something like this last night, and I understand. But we're a couple, these things were bound to happen sooner or later. You need to adjust your mentality as soon as possible and be your lively and cute self again." Andre said.
Mia turned her face away, not listening to him.
"You lied to me last night,. You're perfectly fine. You tested me just to sleep with me." Mia said.
Andre chuckled, pinching his wife's cheek, "Silly girl, if I were impotent, your life would be miserable too. Remember, you can hit me anywhere, but there, you're not allowed to touch, got it?"
Mia bit her lip.
Andre looked at the time on his wrist, "I've moved the morning meeting to the afternoon. I'm off to work now, and I'll come back to see you in the afternoon."
Mia nodded, extending a pair of small hands from the blanket, waving at him, "Bye."
Andre smiled fondly. He leaned over to give his wife a kiss on the forehead before leaving.
Once he got to the office, Andre looked radiant. Noah asked, "Mr. Cedillo, could Jade really be Molly?"
Andre laughed, "I didn't get a hair sample from her last night, still uncertain. Don't tell my father or my brother about this."
They had been disappointed too many times, and now that hope was right in front of them, he didn't dare to excitedly tell them like before, only to see them fall into despair again.
"So, Mr. Cedillo, why are you so happy?" Noah asked.
Andre asked with a laugh, "Am I?"
Noah nodded, and so did Alice, "Mr. Cedillo, you look really happy, did Ms. Mia bring you any surprises?"
The only person who could make Mr. Cedillo this happy was his characterful wife, no one else had that ability.
Andre laughed, "As long as she doesn't cause me any trouble, I'm satisfied."
"But Mr. Cedillo, whenever you handle your wife's issues, I've never seen you show any reluctance." Alice teased.
In response, Andre could only shake his head helplessly, his smile never leaving his face, "I'm her husband, if I don't take care of her, then who should?"
He picked up some documents and stood up, "Let's go to the meeting room, we need to finish today's meeting as soon as possible. I need to go home."
