Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Andre shook his head indulgently as he watched his hardworking little wife, letting her say whatever she wanted as long as she was happy.

Hansen, after taking a sip of his juice, shot a glare at his son. "Why did you order it with less ice and no sugar? I like it with more ice and regular sugar. A juice without sugar and ice is soulless." Hansen had become like a young man himself, knowing quite a bit about ordering juices.

Mia, with a mournful look in her eyes, glanced at the now lukewarm juice in her father's hand. "Be grateful. Your son won't even let his precious wife have a sip."

Hansen glanced at the fruit tea in his daughter-in-law's hand and dismissively said, "What's so great about fruit tea? Our maid can make you a dozen different flavors."

Mia responded with the same argument, "What's so good about juice? Our maid can also make a dozen different flavors."

Hansen was left speechless. He loved to banter with his daughter-in-law, but he never seemed to win.

"Where's my daughter?"

"She's with Chad."

Hansen grumbled, "She's always around that Byrne boy. Andre, bring your sister back home."

Mia pointed at Hansen and gave him a 'I knew you'd say that' look. "You're starting again, aren't you? The Byrne's is also Molly's home. She's spent months with you, so what's wrong with her going back to the Byrne's for the holidays?" Hansen pulled Mia closer and whispered his suspicion, "Mia, I think that Byrne boy has ulterior motives for my daughter."

How did her simple-minded father figure that out?

Soon, Leo also returned. Seeing his father and Mia whispering and holding drinks, he asked, "What are you guys talking about? Let me in on it."

Hansen turned his face away dismissively, "It's adult business. Why are you so nosy?"

Leo huffed. He quietly took a seat on a nearby couch.
