Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 929

Mia had completely forgotten why she was crying earlier. The whole family, as if they'd stumbled upon a hidden treasure, couldn't stop watching the video of little Henry wobbling around as he tried to walk. Jade, always with her quirky insights, piped up, "Hey Anya, what made you think to start filming?"

Everyone turned to Anya, finding it hard to believe she had some kind of foresight.

Just then, a message from Leo popped up, saying, "The little chubster's walking!" and "Forget watching the queen of clumsy, send me that meatball."

Mia took a deep breath and handed Anya's phone back to her. "Tell Leo I'm keeping tabs."

That night, still buzzing from Henry's surprise accomplishment, the family encouraged him to take a few more steps, trying every trick in the book to get him to move.

Mia announced, "Step aside, let me handle this."

She whipped up a bowl of instant noodles and sat down in front of Henry, turning the meal into a little show.

"Ah, mama." Henry toddled forward, captivated.

After a few steps, without anything to hold onto, Henry almost hit the ground, but his dad swooped in, picked him up, and gave him a proud kiss. "You little rascal, walking without letting your old man in on it." Henry eyed the noodles in his mom's hand, drooling.

Chad leaned in to observe Henry. "Andre, Henry's quite the little secret keeper. Clinging to the table like that, and who knew he could walk a bit?"

Meanwhile, Molly, sitting next to Mia, eyed the noodles. "Mia, got any more?"

"You wouldn't dare. You're pregnant."

Molly shot back, "You ate my ice cream when you were expecting."

Mia passed the fork to Molly, blocking the guys from seeing. "Quick, take a few bites before they notice."

Andre glanced over at his son, then back at his wife. "Molly's not eating healthy."

Chad chuckled, still watching Henry. "Let her have this win. If I clamp down too hard, I'll be the one regretting it."

Molly savored the treat. "Mia, you're a real pal."

Mia replied, "Only because you didn't rat me out."
