Chapter 852

Molly hesitated to call Andre. After all, their two precious little ones got sunburned because of her, and she'd almost caused a fender-bender while driving. To top it off, Mia had gotten into a scuffle today, again because of her. Molly was worried about how Mia and her kid would handle things at the police station, so she called Leo for help instead.

Leo took some time off and came over. When he arrived, he took the little one from Mia, and they headed out.

On the way, Leo asked, "Where are we headed?"

Mia replied, "Let's go see your uncle."

"Not scared anymore?"

"Still scared, but Leo, keep it under wraps for me."

Leo didn't say much at first, but then Mia added, "You're right, you can't even talk to your uncle if you see him. It's not like my husband bothers with you."

Leo sighed, "Think about what you're gonna tell my uncle when he finds out you took his son to the police station. Might as well set up camp there with him."

Mia playfully slapped Leo on the back, shutting him up.

Leo noticed how clumsy they both were. "Come on, sis, you were supposed to..."

Right then, Leo's phone rang. It was his boss. "Hey, Vincent. Can't make it tonight, got stuff going on with my aunt."

Mia chimed in, "What's up?"

Leo wrapped up the call quickly, then Mia asked again, "What's that about?"

"Just worry about yourself for now," Leo replied, then asked, "You're not digging into that fire case with Sis, are you?"

Mia nodded, "Why, did she ask you too?"

"You're always sticking your nose in. What do you think the police are for? Henry's just like you, diving into every bit of gossip. Couldn't you have passed on something else to your son instead of that?" Mia shot back, "I also passed on my fighting skills so my son can take on yours."
