Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 667

Chad had wrapped up a morning investigation in their small town, and with the hour growing late, he decided it would be best to spend the night there instead of making the long drive home. Molly tagged along, curious about what was happening at the police station.

This wasn't Molly's first visit to the precinct, but it was the first time she was there as Chad's wife rather than as a suspect. Introducing her to his old friend, Chief Ben, Chad couldn't hide his pride. Molly, initially shy, quickly warmed up and thanked the chief for all his hard work.

The conversation soon shifted to a recent case. One of Chad's former classmates, now a detective, explained how they had nabbed a con artist who had been fraudulently selling properties, one of which happened to be Kendrick's ancestral home. The con artist regretted his actions, especially since he had no idea he was dealing with someone from the well-known Havenbrook family, which included a police officer.

Molly was puzzled about why anyone would buy properties in inconvenient and poorly serviced areas. Chad explained that the scam targeted retirees dreaming of a peaceful country life. The properties were marketed to appeal to their desires, similar to how a celebrity endorsement could boost the sales of a product. It was all about capturing the imaginations of those who believed in the legacy and feng shui of such places.

After wrapping up at the station, Chad suggested they all go out for a meal to thank his colleagues for their hard work. Meanwhile, Molly opted to help her grandparents, Grandma Aubree and Grandpa Elmer, search for a lost bracelet in town rather than join Chad.

Following an unsuccessful search and a comforting meal, Chad picked them up to find a hotel for the night. They chose to stay in a luxury hotel in the city, thinking Molly would appreciate the comfort over the small town's accommodations.

At the hotel, Molly, eager and excited, handled the check-in process. Her grandparents were concerned about the cost, but Molly reassured them by downplaying the price.

The night turned romantic for Chad and Molly, offering a much-needed break from the day's events. As they settled into their luxury room, the evening unfolded into a quiet and intimate night.

The next day, the Cedillo family caught up over video calls with their relatives, sharing snippets of their lives and the latest family news. The tranquility of their night at the hotel stood in stark contrast to their busy lives, a sweet interlude in their ongoing adventures.

Mia and Cooper had been chatting for a while until Cooper had to head into his classroom, ending their video call.

Just then, Mia noticed a missed call notification from her last conversation with her best friend that she hadn't gotten around to answering.

"Hey, Henry, should we try giving your aunt Molly a video call?"

"Uh-huh."

Mia tapped on Molly's contact and sent the video call through.

The little guy waited quietly, but after a few rings, there was no answer. Mia ended the call and looked down at the puzzled little guy in her arms. "Sweetie, do you want a baby brother or a baby sister?"

...

In another city, Molly lay in bed, her breathing heavy, a delicate blush spreading across her features. She had been resting for quite a while before she felt a bit of energy return. Picking up her phone, she saw the missed video call from her best friend and exhaustedly set the phone back down.

Chad glanced at the time, his demeanor still hinting at something more. He asked, "Molly, are you tired?"
