Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Teddy watched Mia walk away and asked Andre, "Andre, isn't this, well, not exactly domestic bliss?"

Andre shrugged, "Domestic bliss and a bit of chaos aren't mutually exclusive."

After changing clothes and coming downstairs, Henry, now looking like a little doughboy, was handed over to his dad.

Andre, strong as ever, could rein in Henry's little tantrums with just one hand, while Mia could barely keep up with their son on her own.

As the adults ate, Henry's hands were gently held by his dad, keeping him still. His eyes followed Andre's fork, and he stared hungrily at his dad chewing.

At the dinner table, when everyone found out Mia had an exam the next day, they offered, "We can look after the little guy for you."

Mia was skeptical, "Are you sure?"

"Of course, we came to see our godson," Asher said.

Henry turned his head, looking at Asher, his godfather.

Mia double-checked, "You're really okay with looking after my son?"

Teddy sensed something was off, "Is there a problem?"

The thought of someone willingly taking care of her son surprised Mia; it had been a while since she encountered such generous souls, this time four at once. She quickly waved her hands, "No, no problem at all." She had been wondering who to leave the child with the next day, and here were people offering themselves.

Without any hesitation, Mia said, "Take him, for as many days as you like. If it gets tough, just ask Andre for a salary."

Andre looked down, indulgently at his son, knowing he'd be well looked after the next day, "Go on then. Give your godfathers a good time tomorrow."

Conner wasn't pleased, "Why would you call my son a troublemaker? He's just a little cream puff, how can he cause trouble?"

Mia immediately stood with Andre's brothers, "Exactly, how could you say that about my son? He's adorable! Can something adorable be trouble?" The principle was clear: not to give these volunteer babysitters any chance to back out.
