Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 719

John's refusal to attend to the baby left Mia with no choice but to cradle the little bundle herself, gently tapping Henry's back and soothing him, "Don't cry, Henry, mommy's right here."

The cheerful atmosphere in the dining room dissipated instantly as Hansen's face turned serious. Anya broke through the pretense of merriment, exposing Leo's true feelings.

The living room fell silent, with Henry gradually calming down in his mother's embrace. All eyes were on Leo, waiting for his response.

Anya, squeezing Leo's hand, urged, "Chad, just say something."

Leo couldn't bring himself to meet his uncle's gaze. At this moment, Andre was glaring at him with an icy stare.

"Speak up!" Andre's thunderous command, accompanied by a forceful slap on the table, made the utensils rattle. The recently pacified Henry was startled into crying again, his wails echoing through the dining room. Seeing Andre struggle to contain his fury sent a shiver down everyone's spine, leaving them speechless.

Mia hurriedly soothed the crying baby, holding Henry tightly to give him a sense of security.

"I don't like business. I love computer science, and I want to work in cybersecurity. I'm considering switching fields for my postgraduate studies. I don't want to take over the family business," Leo said, holding Anya's hand. For the first time, he bravely met his uncle's gaze, revealing his true desires in front of the entire family.

Hansen's face remained stern. "What have you been doing all this time?"

Facing Andre, Leo apologized, "Uncle, I'm sorry."

Naomi's eyes also reddened. "Leo, if you disliked this job, why didn't you say so earlier? That internet stuff, it's all virtual, not real."

Leo found himself unable to explain this to his family. "Uncle, I'll still do my best in my current job."
