Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 1224

Whimpers filled the air as little Henry let everyone know just how uncomfortable he was feeling.

"Oh, my precious little nephew, Auntie's sweet treasure. Let Auntie make it all better with a kiss. That scoundrel who hurt you, I'd take a knife to him if I could."

Everyone gathered around Henry, forming a tight protective circle.

Anya, usually the first to rush to him, stood patiently at the edge of the crowd. Only after both the Cedillo and Irvin families had expressed their concerns did she step forward. "Sweetie, how about a hug from your big sis?"

Later, Henry was back in Mia's arms. He turned his head, his chubby little face lighting up when he saw sister Anya. In the blink of an eye, recognizing her, he reached out his tiny arms and dove into Anya's embrace, comforted by her familiar hold.

Anya's lips curved downward with worry, reluctant to let go of Henry.

But when the doctor came to check him, no amount of holding seemed to help. Henry, now nervous around strangers, clung to his mom's dress, kicking his little legs, wanting only her comforting embrace. Not even his dad's presence could calm him.

Mia, holding her son, asked the doctor, "Can I hold him while you examine him?"

The doctor, worried that an adult's grip might harm Henry's delicate ears or brain, insisted on a thorough check-up.
