Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Mia heard him, but she deliberately chose not to respond.

After she left the bedroom, Andre sat brooding on the couch, slouched against the cushions, feeling utterly helpless.

The couple had exchanged a few sharp words, and just like that, Mia stormed off with their child in her arms.

A little while later, fearing Mia might pull a dramatic exit and leave for good, Andre, unable to shake his concern, hurried out to find his wife and child.

In the living room, Mia sat fuming on the sofa, holding their baby close.

The butler was busy checking the wedding gifts from the Byrne family, while Naomi was occupied with moving these gifts to the storage room.

Leo had vanished again. It was just Mia, with her slender frame, holding their plump little guy who was blissfully asleep, the picture of contentment. When Andre sat beside her, Mia sensed her husband's presence but said nothing.

It was Andre who broke the silence. "Was it really necessary to get so worked up and come down here with the baby?"

He turned to take their chubby son from her-holding the little guy could be quite the arm workout.

He felt sorry for her aching arms, but Andre wasn't the type to openly express his mushy feelings.

Mia held onto their son, unyielding. "You, the big CEO, think I'm making a fuss over nothing? Would you be happy if I started on you?"

After speaking, without sensing any hint of an apology from Andre, Mia stood up and stormed out once more.

Andre was left alone in the living room, sighing to himself. He had inadvertently stepped on Mia's last nerve, but at least this time she didn't run straight back to her parents' house.

He got up, and in the short time he had been lost in thought, he realized he had no idea where his petite wife had taken their son.

Back in the bedroom, Hansen was ruminating over his regrets. He concluded that acting on impulse was indeed the devil's work. Now that the Byrne family's gifts were accepted and the money exchanged, his daughter's marriage was all settled. Scratching his head in frustration, he muttered, "How did I agree to this so absentmindedly? Couldn't I have kept a cool head?" Hansen left the room, glancing over the wedding gifts from the Byrne family with a growing sense of unease.

Later, he found solace in the quiet sanctuary of his late wife's memorial room.
