Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Andre blocked the doorway, refusing to let his wife go shopping. If he kept this up,

she'd have every reason to complain-first he drags her out, then won't even let

her browse the stores.

But if he let her go, well, everyone knew exactly what she'd get up to.

Stuck between a rock and a hard place, he finally muttered, "Come to my study."

"I'm not full yet. Don't wanna go-" She was in her full-on rebellious kitten mode.

Molly eyed her friend, noticing how distracted she seemed at dinner, barely

picking at her food, while Wayne was off making a mess and his mom just let him

be.

Andre sighed, totally out of ideas. He took a deep breath. "Fine, I'm off to work."

"Bye, hubby! Love you! Love you the most!" she called after him, laying it on thick.

Andre looked at his wife and couldn't find a single word to say.

Mia, who'd been missing all day, ended up coming home almost at the same time

outfits, just to smooth things over with him.

from all that shopping-"

Andre furrowed his brow. "Why are your hands so red?"

Mia glanced at her hands, then shrugged. "...From carrying shopping bags."
