Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 1118

Below the stage, Leo and Molly felt the weight of the moment. Henry was desperately searching for his mom, but she was nowhere to be found. He wandered around the campus, tears streaming down his face, feeling that no matter how great Dad was, only Mom would do right now.

Seeing his brother cry set Wayne off too. The sadness hit them like a tidal wave, with no warning or time to prepare. Even cartoons, their usual go-to distraction, failed to lift their spirits. Henry clung to his dad's hand, his voice trembling, "I want mommy."

Meanwhile, Henry's mom had just wrapped up her thesis defense and was sitting at the back of the classroom, a whirlwind of relief and exhaustion. "Number 11, Molly, you're up next."

Since both little ones were yearning for their mom, the dads had brought them to wait outside the defense room. Ten minutes later, Molly's turn was over, and with a shared glance, the trio discreetly slipped out from the back of the classroom.

As soon as they were outside, the two women playfully punched Leo. "We nailed it, right? We totally passed!" they teased.

Leo grinned, "Absolutely, we did. After all these years together, we're finally here, graduating side by side."

Their excitement bubbled over as they made their way down from the third floor. The moment they exited the building, two little voices rang out, "Mommy!" "Wah!"

Henry latched onto his mom's leg, pouring out his woes, while Chad quickly handed his son to his wife, "Here, he's hungry."

Molly sighed, "So I'm just a mobile milk bar, huh?"
