Chapter 933

Henry yawned, letting his head fall naturally onto a familiar shoulder, snuggling in for a nap. Andre felt the soft weight against his neck and sighed, deciding to give up trying to communicate. Instead, he cradled his little sleepyhead and headed back to the office. Later that evening, as school let out, Mia was packing up her things. "I'm going home for extra practice tonight. You two can study here," she said.

"Mia, why are you heading home so early today?" Jamie asked, intrigued.

Mia shot Jamie a playful wink. "Luck's been on my side lately. I'm off to strike it rich."

Jamie, catching Mia's infectious grin, couldn't help but smile back. "Are you going to make so much money that you'll ditch grad school?"

Mia stood, gathered her test papers, and placed them in her bag. "No way. I'll just work even harder."

With that, she slung her bag over her shoulder and headed out. As she reached the street, she spotted a car parked under the shade of a tree.

Mia dashed over, calling out, "Where's mommy's treasure?"

Henry, mid-gulp of his formula, waved his little hand. "Momma!"

She enveloped his chubby cheeks in a hug and gave him a kiss, then turned to her husband. "Alright, let's hit the road."

As Andre drove, he felt like a chauffeur, hearing the sweet exchanges between mother and son in the back. Henry would occasionally call out "Momma," and Mia would respond with a kiss. "Did you get some walking in today?" Mia asked.

Henry puckered his lips, eager to chat. "Hmm."

"Are you tired? Want Mommy to massage your little legs?" she offered, playfully pinching his leg.

Once they reached the mall, Mia tossed her bag into the car and carried Henry to the elevator, waiting for Andre to park.

She started chatting about what they needed, "We've got a lot to buy this time. Henry's walking now, so we need more clothes and socks."

"We'll just get your stuff. Henry's clothes can last a few more days," Andre suggested.
