Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

After Chad got home and saw Vivian lounging in the living room, he stormed upstairs, grabbed a few clothes, and left, making sure to lock both his bedroom and Molly's before heading out. "Mom, Dad, I'm staying at a hotel for a while. Don't expect me back," he called out, his voice tight with anger.

Vivian tried to follow him, but Chad turned and shouted, "Get lost!"

It was the first time anyone in the Byrne family had seen Chad so furious. He'd always been the epitome of self-control, never one to raise his voice. Clearly, Vivian had pushed him too far. Vivian stood there, frozen with fear, not daring to move.

The next day, Mia found out about the family drama. She showed up at her parents' place with her baby in tow. Mia had the kind of breast milk that could practically make a baby grow before your eyes. Andre also came back, saying, "Molly, tell me what happened."

Seeing her older brother, Molly's eyes filled with tears as she ran to him, "Andre, yesterday...," she began, recounting the events of the previous night. Andre listened and nodded, understanding what needed to be done. "You stay with Mia. I've got things to take care of." Molly watched as Andre, having just heard the news, headed for the door. Mia reassured her, "He's going to fix this."

Grateful, Molly hugged Mia. "Thank you, Mia. Home really is my safe haven."

Jade was feeling better, but the investigators on the arson case were under immense pressure. With Officer Chad wanting to get involved, the tension was palpable.

Late at night, Bruce made a call; in the morning, Kendrick gave orders; and now, Andre himself had shown up at the police station.

No one seemed truly concerned about solving the arson case; their focus was on clearing Jade's name. Andre's presence only added to the tension, especially after he asked, "What evidence do we need to prove Vivian framed my sister?"

Easton, "invited" into Andre's luxury car by his assistant, was questioned in a way that made him sweat despite the cold weather.

Chad knew what was going on and confronted Andre, "What are you planning?"

"Just making sure my sister's happy," Andre replied.

"I believe Molly's innocent. Let the police clear her name," Chad said firmly.
