Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 39

When Jade wanted to go to the Cedillo family to help her out with some trash talk, Mia stopped her. "Easy there, this could affect your mom's business. Our family business is already under threat from the Cedillo family. I don’t want your mom also to suffer from this."

Mia had been married for a while now, but she was meeting her friend this time because she needed a place to crash.

After a two-hour walk, Mia arrived at the Byrne family's place. Jade was the one to answer the door. Seeing her friend, Mia couldn't help but burst into tears, "Jade, can I crash at your place tonight?"

"What are you talking about? You can not only stay tonight, but you're also welcome to bunk here forever."

Jade ushered Mia into the house, "What's up, sweetheart? Did the Cedillo family mess with you?"

Mia nodded and then shook her head.

"You didn't want to worry your folks so you didn't tell them, but you don't need to hide it from me. Did the Cedillo family mess with you?"

Mia: "Yes, they did, but I fought back."

Jade: "Did you give it your all?"

"No."

Jade: "Next time if anyone messes with you, fight back with all you've got. My brother says it's legit self-defense."

Mia smiled and nodded at her friend, "Deal."

That night, Chad came home from work. He had his clothes draped over his arm intentionally.

Chad was handsome, working at the police station gave him an air of integrity. His actions and demeanor were just like his father's.

Chad was more handsome than most, his eyes striking. He often wore a serious expression, but whenever he looked at Jade, he would often smile.

With Jade's company, Mia felt much better, and she noticed the clothes on Chad's arm. She thought to herself, it was not even cold, why would he need a coat?
