Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 812

Andre found a rare break in his schedule and decided to take his wife and child to visit the Irvin family. When Molly returned home, Chad was just about to leave for work. "Chad, are you busy today?" she asked.

"If you want to tag along, just hop in the car," Chad replied casually.

Molly slid into the passenger seat. "Why are you up so early today?" Chad inquired.

"Henry slept with me last night, and I was worried he'd yank my hair again, so I woke up at five," Molly explained.

Chad noticed she was acting differently than usual. "I picked up some snacks for you last night, but you weren't around. They're in the fridge." "Oh, thanks."

Chad couldn't quite put his finger on what was going on, so he continued, "I was planning to pick you up today after heading to the station. Last night, I was ready to come get you, but Mom thought you and the Cedillo family could use some alone time, so she told me not to."

Molly was taken aback. "Mom didn't let you pick me up?"

Chad nodded, "Yep. Why? Did you want me to?"

Molly shook her head, playing it cool. "Nope."

At the station, Chad went straight to his office for some paperwork, even though it was supposed to be his day off. He usually kept his weekends open to spend time with Molly. But today, something came up unexpectedly, and his boss called about a case, so he decided to swing by. Plus, it had been ages since he'd seen his mentor, so he thought bringing Molly along would be nice.

While Chad was busy at the station, Molly wandered around, exchanging greetings with familiar faces. "Molly, morning! What's got you here so early?" someone asked.

The forensic scientist chimed in, "Wow, not sleeping in today?"

Molly's reputation for being a late riser was well-known, thanks to Chad. Soon, Annie joined them, and Molly momentarily forgot to reply.
