Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 353

Finley asked again, "Any news on the Cedillos lately?"

Finley's personal bodyguard and driver, Tom, nodded, "I heard Andre's wife is also pregnant."

Finley's eyes widened in surprise. He turned to Tom, "The Cedillos are expecting another one!"

Tom nodded, "Yes, Hansen has told many people." Except for Finley.

Finley clenched his fists, his jaw tight. He asked, "Is Mia expecting a girl or a boy?"

"The Cedillos have kept it a secret. According to Hansen's friend, Hansen seems to want a

granddaughter."

Finley stood up, walked to the window, and stared out into the night. With his hands behind his back,

he asked, "Is Holly expecting a girl or a boy?"

Tom hesitated before answering, "The doctor said... it might be a girl. They will know for sure at Holly's

next appointment."

Finley's eyes darkened. "Next time, you take her to the hospital."

"Understood."

Around eight in the evening.

After freshening up, Mia, heavily pregnant, moved slowly to her husband's side. She laid on his back as

if asking him to carry her. Her arms wrapped around his neck, as she put her cheek against his ear,

"Honey, what did your dad want to talk about?"

Andre turned to face her, "Dad asked me to investigate the Waltons. Nothing else."

"Why did he do it behind my back? Am I not your sweet wife?" Mia asked, fishing for information.

Andre changed his position, pulling her into his arms. "Have you ever heard a good kitty brag about

how good she is?"

After a while, Andre asked, "Why didn't you tell me the first time you saw them at the hospital?"

Mia did not understand what had happened, so she told the truth, "I was in a hurry to use the bathroom

and forgot. Today I saw them by accident. I know our families are at odds, I didn't want to say anything,

but I couldn't help it."

Andre held her gently, "Mia, you can be carefree and playful with others, but you must stay away from

Finley and his family. They are a different kind of trouble."

The more Andre said, the more curious Mia became. "Honey, is there some secret feud between our

families?"

Andre thought about his father's speculation in the study. He looked at his wife's belly and warned her,

"Mia, you must take care of yourself, and our child." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Mia pouted, "You make it sound like I'm in danger."

Andre pinched her lips, turning them into a duckbill, "Don't talk nonsense."

After a moment, Andre asked his wife, "Mia, can we move up the prenatal checkup by two days?"

Mia suddenly remembered her husband was going on a business trip, "Are you leaving so soon?"

Andre nodded, realizing their prenatal check-ups were on the same day, and that his wife could

potentially run into the Waltons at the hospital. He was worried that his wife, with her inquisitive nature,

would be curious and approach the Waltons. If they did the checkup two days earlier, he could leave

earlier and be at peace.

Mia didn't think much about it. As soon as she heard her husband was going on a business trip, she

was all over him.

"Honey, I don't want you to go…" Mia started to cling to him.

Andre was silent, he held her and lightly kissed her lips.

"Honey, be faithful when you're away."

Andre kissed her again.

"Be a good husband."

Each of Andre's kisses was a promise.

The first two times Mia went for her prenatal checkup, Molly and Leo wanted to go with her, but they

were at school. This time, knowing Mia was going for her checkup, Molly, who had to intern at her

mother's company, wanted to accompany her to see her future nephew.

Leo was also curious about his brother. He wanted to go as well.

Mia asked her husband, "Honey, should we let them come with us?"

Andre laughed, "If you think it's okay, let them accompany you."

Two days later, Andre brought the three little rascals to the hospital.

Molly complained to Mia about having to intern, "I still feel like a baby."

Mia, "...have some shame."

Andre told his nephew in the car, "You are also going to intern at Cedillo Inc."

Leo looked at his aunt, "Jade, I beg you to scram." He was always the one who got dragged into these

things!

Molly looked at Leo and said intentionally, "Knowing you also have to intern, and under my brother, I'm

very happy."

The four of them entered the crowded hospital. Because they had an appointment with the doctor, they

didn't have to wait in line for the sonogram. Mia lay on the bed, and exposed her bulging belly for the

doctor to examine. Molly, visiting for the first time, was curious about everything. She bent over and

looked at the gray blob on the computer screen, "Doctor, where's my nephew? This looks like a big

lump of meat?"

The doctor looked at the beautiful but silly Jade, "The child... is indeed a lump of meat."

"That makes sense." Molly was not knowledgeable, but she was curious. "Doctor, what is this thin

thing?"

The doctor had to answer because of Molly's status. "That's the umbilical cord."

"And there are several other thin things."

"Those are the baby's limbs."

Molly drawled, "Oh, it's just limbs! I was wondering why the numbers didn't add up, I thought Mia was

carrying a little goblin."

Mia cast a glance at her husband, tattling unabashedly, "Honey, Molly said our baby is a goblin."

Andre's doting was never a secret, "Nonsense, you're clearly carrying a little kitten."

"No, no, it's a little tiger!"

Seeing his wife's radiant smile, Andre was filled with joy, his face painted with affection. "Alright, you're

carrying our little tiger."

The doctor, now a third wheel, was speechless.

Molly patted the doctor's shoulder, "It's just a lovey-dovey couple, pretty normal. Let's continue to look

at my little nephew, what's that dark blob over there?"

......

Leo, being an guy, wanted to take a peek at the realtime ultrasound screen. However, as soon as he

entered, he was slapped out of the room by his very own uncle. Then, the ultrasound room door was

shut. He was left alone outside, waiting for the trio inside.

Inside the room, Andre took out his phone and recorded a video of the screen. Then he sent it to his

nephew.

Leo, looking at the black and white video uploaded on his phone, was beaming with happiness. He was

very much looking forward to the arrival of this little one.

"The baby is very healthy and developing well," the doctor announced to the Cedillo family after the

examination.

Andre gently wiped the ultrasound gel off from his wife's belly with a tissue.

Thanks to Molly's curiosity and eagerness to learn, she could now even identify the baby's position in

the womb.
