Chapter 802

Not long after they left, Andre came back home.

His father-in-law had dropped by, and despite rushing, Andre missed seeing him.

Mia, snuggling up to him, said playfully, "No worries, my parents said we're all family, no need to stand on ceremony."

Hansen chimed in with a knowing nod, "Andre, your father-in-law is quite a character."

Curious, Mia asked, "What do you mean, Dad?"

Hansen, with his wealth of experience in politics and business, admired such people greatly and knew exactly what he meant by the goodwill gesture from the Irvin family.

That afternoon, Andre decided to skip going to the office, prompting Mia to gently tease him, "Honey, shouldn't you be off making some money?"

Feeling a bit uneasy, Andre asked, "What are you up to that you don't want me knowing?"

"Nothing at all! Even with one hand, I couldn't beat Dad in a fight, so what could I possibly do?" Mia protested her innocence, then added, "I'll come with you to the office if you don't believe me." Andre frowned, his suspicion growing.

Hansen quietly excused himself, "I'm heading up for a nap."

He made his way upstairs.

Naomi handed a bottle to her little nephew, smiling as she took the baby from Mia. "Henry, Auntie's got you," she cooed.

The baby was unfazed by all the attention.

Andre turned to Mia, "Where's Molly?"

"No idea. But don't worry, Molly's been staying with the Byrnes lately. Our chats are totally innocent," Mia reassured him, even showing her chat history to prove it. Andre decided, "You're coming to the office with me."

"What about our son?"

"We'll leave him here."
