Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Little Henry snoozed peacefully in his crib, redeeming the CEO's family image and showing everyone that even the boss's kid could be adorable and well-behaved. When Andre Cedillo, the CEO, brought his child to the office, it was like seeing a unicorn. A self-rocking bassinet, a stash of diapers, and baby formula in his sleek office? No one could believe their eyes. Was this the same Andre Cedillo known for his strict separation of personal and professional life?

At first, Henry's tiny mouth puckered, as if he was about to wake up and start crying. But a few gentle pats on his bottom from his father soothed him back to sleep. Only when the boy was settled did Andre stand up, drape a light blanket over him, and step away.

Andre's response was firm. "Hold back 100 tons for emergencies. Better to take a loss than to be caught unprepared."

Even as a pioneering businessman at the helm of Cedillo Inc., expanding his empire, Andre's traditional roots compelled him to always keep a reserve.

The journalist who'd made a name for herself with her incisive questions during yesterday's press conference had been promoted. Her probing had brought the issues with the Walker Corporation's murky supply chain and questionable product quality to light, leaving them scrambling while the Cedillo Group swiftly filled the market void without price gouging.

Walkers' supply issues worsened when their stock numbers were found to be duplicates of those already on the market, fueling media speculation and concern over
