Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Molly giggled behind his ear, "Of course, who else are you going to like if not me?"

Chad wrapped his arms around his sister's waist, and as he turned his head, he tentatively placed his lips on Molly's ear.

Molly felt it distinctly. She thought her brother was unintentional, but she herself was startled with a jolt of goosebumps of uneasiness. Chad noted that she didn't resist.

Coleen was ready to put on makeup after dinner. Knowing her daughter's dawdling nature, she decided to hurry her up. Upon opening the door, she saw the siblings sitting at the foot of the bed, embracing each other. From Coleen's perspective, it was her daughter who had initiated the contact. "What are you doing?" Coleen asked sternly.

Molly lifted her head and looked towards the door. Still holding onto Chad, she told her mother, "We're just hugging."

Molly's innocent gaze and guileless tone made Coleen feel as if she were the one overthinking.

Chad let go of the grip he had around Molly's waist. He slowly released Molly and stood up to explain to his mother, "Molly said something that touched me, and she gave me her paycheck card, offering to support me."

That was why the siblings' embrace was purely platonic.

Coleen looked at her son, then at her daughter. She was worried about her daughter, but she knew that her son had always been mature and sensible, and he should be able to handle this situation appropriately. "Molly's grown up, and you as her brother should keep a bit of distance."

Chad hummed in agreement, turning his head to look at his sister, "Hurry up and do your makeup, I'll take you to work later."

"Sure."

Molly returned to her vanity, and Chad went downstairs for breakfast.

Soon, Andre called. Chad stepped outside to answer. Andre asked him, "Do you have any idea who's been working behind the scenes?"
