Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 855

Mia immediately dropped her gaze when her husband started scolding her. This time, Andre was ticked off not just because his young wife had kept things from him, but also because she took their kid out without a heads-up!

"Who brought you back?" he asked.

"It was, um, Leo," she replied hesitantly.

Andre's eyes narrowed. "So, you'd rather call him than me, huh?"

Mia scrunched up her face, "Well, if I call him and he gives me grief, I can give it right back. If it's you, I wouldn't dare talk back."

"Is that what you call not talking back?" Andre shot back, raising an eyebrow.

Mia felt timid inside, but her mouth had a mind of its own, always ready with a comeback.

"And here I thought I was the clueless one," Andre sighed. "Do you really think I just jump to conclusions and punish you without knowing the full story?"

Mia nodded instinctively, then quickly shook her head when she realized what she'd done, her eyes wide in the quiet living room.

Andre sighed, looking away towards the dining room, wondering if he was really as clueless as she made him out to be.

Mia broke the silence. "Well... not really."

Andre kept his eyes on her, and Mia continued, "Sometimes, when I'm in the right, you just give me a little grief to keep Dad happy, and then it's all good." "Then why didn't you tell me this time?" he asked, genuinely curious.

Mia frowned. "It's embarrassing... getting caught with our kid at the police station. You're busy with important stuff, can't have you running to the station for us all the time." She figured big issues needed his help, but small ones were on her to handle.

"So you do feel embarrassed," Andre replied, his voice softer. "But in front of Leo, not me? Your husband, your rock? You think it's okay to be embarrassed in front of me but not strangers? What haven't I seen of you? You think Leo is closer to you than I am?" Andre's frustration was palpable, his heart pounding with irritation.

Mia tried to explain, "I am closer to you, but="
