Chapter 895

Mia quickly tugged her husband by the arm, "Babe, let's step outside for a chat."

Out in the yard, Mia started explaining the whole situation. "...No one saw this coming. Molly's pregnant, and her husband isn't around. She's already feeling down. Please don't blame her, and don't get mad, okay? Otherwise, she'll feel even worse. I thought someone was targeting our son, so I held onto him the whole time. I didn't expect it to be Molly. If I hadn't been holding your son today, I would have decked the guy."

Andre gave Mia's hand a gentle shake, teasingly, "With those tiny fists of yours? You think you could actually knock someone out?"

Mia nodded confidently, "Yep, my fists are a lot stronger than they look. You have no idea how tough your wife really is."

Andre held her hand, caught between frustration and amusement.

Just then, the hospital results came in.

Mia led her husband back inside.

"Was it Officer Chapman who started it?" Easton asked.

Annie shook her head, "It was Mrs. Cedillo."

Easton responded, "Almost hit a major artery; could have led to serious blood loss."

Mia glanced at her husband and stuck out her tongue, a bit sheepish. "I had no choice. The guy seemed trained. If I hadn't stabbed him, he might have gotten up and taken hostages. The security guards are great at keeping order but not so much at catching people, so I had to make sure he stayed down."

Andre looked at his feisty little wife, amused by her logic.

"Who hit the woman?" Easton continued.

Both Mia and Annie raised their hands.

Andre looked at Mia, thinking: What did she get into this time?

"Who kicked the ribs?" Easton probed further.

Mia quickly withdrew her hand, deflecting, "That wasn't me. I just went for the head."

Annie raised her hand, "But I didn't kick. I just threw a few punches."
