As Chad and Molly were heading out, Molly glanced back at Mia, her eyes reflecting a mix of uncertainty and longing.

Mia, holding her baby, waved goodbye with a gentle squeeze of her son's tiny hand.

Chad had a soft spot for the little one. Before driving off, he rolled down the window, clapped his hands, and mimicked a hug. The baby hesitated for a moment but then reached out towards Chad.

Seeing the adorable bundle, Chad couldn't resist stepping out of the car for a proper hug. Nearby, Hansen chuckled and teased the newlyweds, "Chad, how about giving your dad a granddaughter next? We've got enough boys in the family; it's time for a girl." Holding Henry, Chad gently pinched his cheek, "What did you do to make grandpa not want another grandson?"

Henry puffed up his cheeks, clearly wondering how any of this was his fault.

Mia quickly defended her son, "That's all Leo's doing, nothing to do with my boy. Uncle, don't blame the little one."

Henry let out a couple of noises in agreement.

Andre, finding his son adorable, scooped him up. But within seconds, Bruce's arms were empty as the baby was passed back to his great-uncle. Leo came over to squish the baby's cheeks, while Anya held his tiny hand.

The little one fussed, clearly not enjoying the attention, just as Bruce sternly told his son, "If your hand feels itchy, chop it off!"

The baby pouted briefly but didn't cry.

Chad had barely reached home when he got a call and had to leave again, driving off without even stepping inside.

Molly walked into the living room alone, and Colleen asked, "Where's your brother?"

"Summoned away," Molly replied before retreating to her bedroom.
