Chapter 800

The trio joked around, munching on slices of watermelon.

Hansen nudged playfully, "Mia, how about you and Andre have a little chat? Now that you've had the baby, it's about time we got some ice cream around here."

Mia paused mid-bite and looked up. "Dad, how about we pull off something big?"

Hansen blinked. "Wait, what are you suggesting?"

Glancing at his grandson, who was determinedly wrestling with his watermelon slice, Hansen pointed at the little guy, with his cheeks flushed red. "What? You planning to kidnap Andre's son to blackmail him into buying us ice cream?"

Mia chuckled and shook her head. "Of course not. After all, his son is my son too. If you kidnapped my boy, Andre wouldn't even get the chance to react-I'd be on you first."

Hansen knew his daughter-in-law's fists were no joke.

"Alright then, what's this big plan of yours?" Hansen asked, curiosity piqued.

Mia leaned in and whispered her mischievous scheme.

Hansen's eyes widened, and a grin spread across his face. "You really think we can pull this off?"

Naomi giggled as Mia sealed the deal. "Why not? If you don't tell, I don't tell, and Naomi keeps quiet, the only one left is Henry, and he's too busy battling his watermelon. We'll keep it hush-hush." Hansen still had his doubts. "This seems a bit risky."

Mia reassured him, "Dad, don't sweat it. If anything goes wrong, I'll take the heat."

"You sure about this?"

Mia nodded, "Thanks, Dad. The whole family's counting on you."

Feeling a renewed sense of purpose, Hansen beamed.

After their meal, Mia went to check on her son.
