Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 379

It wasn't until Andre kissed her tender lips until they turned slightly red that he finally let her go."When you saw me in the living room earlier, why didn't you speak?"

"I was so overwhelmed with joy, I didn't know what to say."

Andre chuckled, wrapping an arm around his petite wife, pinching her cheek affectionately. He leaned down, nuzzling her forehead, "Sweet Mia, from now on, wherever I go, I'll take both you and our little one with me."

"Honey, I've missed and loved you so much."

With that, Mia tiptoed, puckering her lips, wrapping her arms around Andre's neck, seeking another kiss. Andre, lost in the moment, wished he could keep her close forever. But seeing her once delicate lips now swollen, he didn't want to cause her any more discomfort. So he bent down and gave her a gentle peck.

Not long after, the couple descended to the dining room for dinner. By then, the rest of the Cedillo family had finished their meals. Only the couple remained in the vast dining room, undisturbed by the staff. Women understood women, and Naomi, the head housekeeper, had instructed the staff to give the couple some privacy, sensing they had a lot to catch up on.

As Mia sat with her husband, she playfully took a big sip of soup right in front of him, "Honey, you have no idea. While you were away, I took such good care of myself and our baby."

A doting look appeared on Andre's face as he picked up a piece of broccoli and held it to Mia's lips. She opened her mouth and took a bite, then teasingly asked, "Why aren't you feeding me meat? Don't you love me anymore?"

Seeing his wife's playful pout, Andre chuckled and picked up a piece of steak, offering it to her. Mia, enjoying her husband's attention, took a big bite.

"Honey, just look at the extra weight on my face. I've been eating well while you were away."

Andre playfully pinched Mia's cheek, "Indeed, you've put on a bit."

Mia's laughter made her round cheeks even more adorable. "Have you sorted everything out at the company?"

"Yes."

Mia continued, "Did you see Chad?"

Andre reassured her, "I did. Don't worry, Chad's injuries aren't severe, but his car took a beating."

Mia nodded, eating her meal while speculating who might have targeted Chad. Andre listened intently to her analysis.

"I don't think it's a business rival. If Chad took a longer leave, he'd be fit for his role. It's better to assume a position without any bloodshed than to do so with a life on one's conscience. Leo mentioned they were investigating a kidnapping case from sixteen years ago. Maybe Chad found something. Wait! Honey, we haven't seen Leo all day." Mia's voice grew anxious, thinking of her dear friend and nephew. If Chad had been targeted, was Leo in danger too?

Her eyes filled with concern, "What do we do? I haven't seen Leo all day. Call him and find out where he is."
