Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 642

Mia exchanged glances with her husband and subtly nodded, implying, "Give us a minute." She needed to get some details sorted out with Leo.

Leo didn't beat around the bush, "My granddad was against it before because if his granddaughter married my uncle, it'd mess up the family hierarchy. Now that I'm in the same generation, there's no way I'm diving into that chaos."

Molly added with a smirk, "Just take Anya's hand and parade around in front of them. Let's see who dares to bring up matchmaking then."

Anya, who had been quietly biting her lip, remained silent.

Leo shrugged, "No point. Not gonna do it."

Andre figured his little sister could cause quite a ruckus if she got jealous, and he wasn't about to let that happen. He quickly headed to his sister's room, pulling his wife along to clear up any misunderstandings.

Sure enough, by the afternoon, the old man Leo mentioned showed up at the Cedillo's place with his granddaughter.

"Where's Leo?" the old man immediately asked Hansen upon entering.

Mia took a good look at the girl. She was barely twenty, around Anya's age, but way more outgoing and bold.

The old man wasted no time introducing his granddaughter, "This is Minnie, nineteen, about the same age as Leo. Perfect match, right?"

Hansen laughed off the suggestion, "Come on, Aaron. Let the kids figure it out themselves. It's their lives."

Aaron, not one to back down, retorted, "Didn't you meddle quite a bit in Andre's wedding?"

He glanced over at Mia, holding her baby, and remarked on how fast things had progressed.

Aaron's ideal son-in-law was a man at the pinnacle of power. Andre's age had never been an issue since his capabilities far outweighed it. But the Irvin family swooped in out of nowhere, making him shift his hopes to the Cedillo family's grandson, who was the right age.

Caught off guard, Hansen tried to steer the conversation, "Minnie's a lovely girl. Hasn't she met anyone nice while she's been away?"

The girl on the sofa shook her head, a habit more common in the West, her body language expressive. "Grandpa Aaron, I prefer men from our country. So, I don't care for those abroad."

Hansen seized the moment, "Minnie and my Anya are about the same age. It's time they both start dating."

"Anya is...?" Aaron, thrown off by the unfamiliar name, inadvertently fell into Hansen's trap and asked.

Hansen vaguely replied, "Anya, well, she's got a bit of a thing with our Leo."

Aaron was stunned. The idea of a union with the Cedillo family now seemed unlikely.

Mia discreetly gave her dad a thumbs up, hidden behind her son: Genius.

Hansen, having raised two remarkable sons, Bruce and Andre, was no ordinary man.

Later, Anya showed up before Leo did.

She and Molly had been out trying on bridesmaid dresses and had just returned from the venue. Without heading to her room, Hansen warmly pulled her aside, treating her as if she was already his future "granddaughter-in-law."

Seeing the gentle and lovely Anya, Minnie's eyes sparkled with fondness. "Grandpa Aaron, your granddaughter-in-law is adorable and pretty."

Anya, puzzled, looked at Hansen, "Granddaughter-in-law?"

Jade, equally surprised, wondered what she had missed.

"Thanks, Minnie. My Anya's quite the campus beauty, aren't you?" Hansen boasted about the women in his family.
