Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 216

The lights of the Cedillo household were on; the whole family was in high spirits. On Jade’s first night back to the Cedillo family, Naomi planned to keep her company. She said to her husband, “It’s Molly’s first day back, she might need some time to adjust. I wanna go hang out with her, chat about what’s been going on these years.”

As she approached Jade’s room, she knocked, “Molly, can I come in?”

Jade responded, “Sure, Naomi.”

Leo muttered under his breath, “You didn’t show this much courtesy when you entered my room.”

Naomi pushed the door open, “Mia, Leo, what are you guys doing here?”

Mia and Leo were both in their pajamas, sitting on the bed with Jade. Leo was perched on a stool. “We were worried Jade might find it hard to adjust, so we decided to keep her company.” Mia explained.

Seeing them, Naomi knew she was no longer needed. “Since you guys are here, I’ll head back. I just came to check on Molly.”

She pointed at her son, “You, get out and go to bed.”

Leo said, “Mom, I need time to take all this in too.”

Naomi didn’t get it, why did her son need time to take it all in?

Leo looked at who he’d been calling Jade for nearly a decade, now his actual aunt. The shock was nothing short of when he knew Mia married Andre. What pissed him off was that they kept calling him nephew.

Jade said, “I thought you were my friend. Turns out, you’re my nephew.”

Leo was speechless. So, he needed time to digest.

Mia told Naomi to leave, as Leo still had his uses. He needed to fill Jade in on what had happened in the Cedillo family over the years.

Naomi nodded and took her leave.

Back in the bedroom, Bruce asked, “Why are you back?”

“Mia and Leo are with Molly, my being there would only make them uncomfortable. Better let them have some alone time.” Naomi said.

That night, Leo told Jade everything he remembered about after Molly left.

Mia told Jade, “Andre went through a lot to find you. His last business trip was actually trying to find you.”

Leo chimed in, “Andre sacrificed his marriage to find you.”

“What?” Mia turned to Leo, “Explain. How did he sacrifice his marriage?”

Leo was surprised, “Didn’t Andre tell you?” He was unsure, worried he might get scolded by Andre for revealing too much.

Mia said, “Spill it, what happened to his marriage?”

Jade also wanted to know, “Why did he do it for me?”
