Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 813

After getting home, Molly quickly wolfed down the snacks she'd missed out on the night before in just ten minutes.

Later that evening, as Chad was taking a shower, he couldn't shake the nagging feeling of guilt, like he was hiding something from Molly. It was as if he was worried she'd somehow find out about his past. Meanwhile, Molly was blissfully unaware. If she ever found out about his college days...

Before leaving, Chad watched his wife, who was about to video call her girlfriends for a skincare chat. "You should tag along with me on Andre's business trip," he suggested. "Take a little vacation for yourself, and maybe keep an eye out for any women buzzing around married men."

After saying this, she shot a glance at him as he stood there, drying his hair, shirtless.

Chad set down his towel and perched on the edge of the bed, a small knot of hesitation forming in his chest.

Their married life was solid and happy. Did he really want to stir things up by bringing up a past girlfriend? He'd have to explain the old relationship he'd hidden, and also that his colleague now was that same ex-girlfriend.

If he kept quiet, Molly might remain blissfully ignorant, happily carefree every day. Their relationship was strong, he was committed, and he had severed ties with his ex.

But if he told her, it could create a rift. Now that Annie was his colleague, would Molly start imagining things? Knowing Molly as well as he did, having an ex-girlfriend as a colleague would definitely be a sore spot for her. When Molly heard that Andre wanted to take his family to Australia, she encouraged her friend, "Don't just stay cooped up at home. Anya's been out and about for over two weeks now, and Leo's been living like a monk."

During the video call, Henry's playful antics and attempts to chat with his aunt were hard to miss.

Eventually, unable to continue the call due to the kids, Mia ended it and texted: "Did you tell her?"

"No."

No need for names-the brief question was enough for them to know exactly what they were talking about.

Mia sighed, cuddling her little one in bed, looking down at her son, so lively and full of energy. "Want to go on a trip?"
