the bullies?"

Hansen was completely riveted by Mia being bullied at school. He said, "Humph! If she wasn't pregnant, I bet she would have set those guys straight. They have no idea how tough my daughter-in-law is. Would she even consider carrying a Cedillo family baby if we were The more Hansen thought about it, the angrier he became, "Butler, call Naomi and Andre down."

Soon, Naomi was in the living room and Andre followed.

Hansen announced, "From now on, we three will take turns going to Mia's school!"

Hearing this, Mia immediately objected, "No way, my husband absolutely cannot go."

As soon as Mia finished speaking, Molly and Leo immediately agreed with her. For the first time, the three of them were completely united.

Molly said, "Dad, my brother needs to work. He can't go."

Leo also added, "If he goes, it will disrupt our studies. He can't go."

Hansen didn't understand, asking, "Why? Didn't he go today?"

Mia remembered how her husband's presence had made her feel restricted. She couldn't go to the snack bar, couldn't play with her phone, and even nodding off resulted in a pinch to the face.

She leaned into Hansen's ear and whispered something to him.

Andre could guess what his wife had said to his father. It probably had to do with him not letting her have ice cream today. Sure enough, as soon as Hansen heard that his son wouldn't let his pregnant daughter-in-law buy snacks, he slapped the table angrily, "Andre is out. Only Naomi and I will go."

When Naomi understood the whole story, she calmly said with a smile, "Dad, we should probably stay out of it. We can make an appearance once in a while, but it would disrupt their studies if we went every day."

Mia agreed with Naomi, "Yeah, Dad, you could occasionally pick us up from school. But if you go every day, it might be too much for you at your age. And my husband already has back pain from going today. If you pick us up, we won't miss out on any of the good food or fun."

Hansen had no counterargument. It seemed like a reasonable point.

"So, we'll follow Mia's plan. We'll pick them up when we have time. Naomi can join if she's free, so no one can say we're not a loving family." Hansen said.
