Chapter 795

Detective Chad handed over his phone with a chuckle, "Alright, let my wife do the checking."

Molly didn't take it, crossing her arms instead. "Since you're being so cooperative, I'll let it slide this time. But I still want to know-who did you have dinner with without telling me?"

Chad wrapped an arm around Molly's waist as they walked home. "Just an old friend you don't know. What made you decide to surprise me today?" He had almost skipped dinner at the Cedillo family's house tonight. Molly replied, "You showed up at lunch so unexpectedly, it made me a bit uneasy. I thought I'd check on you this evening."

"Is Henry still staying at the old house?" Chad asked.

Molly nodded. "Yeah, that little chub is always clinging to Mia. If you miss him, we can go see him tomorrow."

"I do miss him," Chad admitted.

At the Cedillo family home, the dearly missed Henry was under strict tutelage by his dad. "Henry, don't be lazy. Stand on your own for a bit; it's time to start learning how to walk."

While sorting out clothes for the family, Mia complained, "He's not even good at crawling yet, and you're already pushing him to walk. Look at his toes curling up like he's afraid of losing a bet."

Henry's eyes followed Mia around, watching as she moved his clothes to the wardrobe. His little mouth pursed as he tried to mumble, "Ah~ ah ma."

Andre hugged his son and joined Mia in the wardrobe. "Dad told me you took Henry out again today?"

"Yeah, your son loves to stroll around. What can I do?" Mia replied.

Every time Mia's arm came within reach, Henry would try to get her to pick him up. Mia gently pushed him toward his father. "Go to your dad. I've been holding you all day and washing your clothes; my hands are killing me." Andre, holding his son in one arm, reached out with his other. "Let me see your hands."

Mia glanced at her hands, and Andre took them, asking, "Where does it hurt?"

Realizing later, Mia pulled her hands back. "It's nothing, just sore from holding him too long. It's much better now."

The culprit of Mia's sore arms, Henry, contentedly munched on his hand.

Andre announced, "He can come to the office with me tomorrow."
