Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 140

Mia and Jade hung out at the café all morning.

After lunch, they went shopping together and even watched a movie.

By nightfall, they went to the night market.

After stuffing their faces and quenching their thirst, their phones started buzzing.

"Time to head home, right?" Mr. Cedillo was left out at home by his wife all day.

He thought Mia would be home in the afternoon, but she wasn't.

He waited till nightfall, still no sign of her.

So, he kept waiting.

It wasn’t until past eight that he nervously dialed her, reminding her to come home.

"I'm not coming home tonight. I'm staying at my mom's."

Andre responded, "Come back tonight. I'll take you tomorrow."

"No need. My friend will go with me."

With that, Mia hung up.

Jade also answered her brother's call. "I'm not coming home tonight. I'm staying at Mia's mom's house with Mia."

"She's a married woman."

"So what? I can't hang with her because she's married? I don't care. I'm not coming home tonight."

And with that, she hung up too.

The two friends looked at each other, flagged down a cab, and headed for the Irvin family's house.

There was a loud noise at the door of the Irvin family's house. Madison Irvin came out to find her daughter. "What brings you here?"

Mia was holding a bunch of shopping bags, with Jade standing behind her.

"Jade, you're here too."

Jade nodded and politely greeted her.

Mia announced, "Mom, we're staying the night. Jade and I will be having a girl's night."

They went back to Mia's childhood room.

"Jade, there are pajamas in the closet, help yourself. I've got a new toothbrush for you, it's in the bathroom cup."

Jade was no stranger to Mia's room. She'd been there many times.

After cleaning up, they lay in bed chatting.

"Have you ever...you know...made love with Andre since getting married?"

Mia blinked, “Not yet, but I think it won’t be long. He’s been bringing up the baby talk recently. I’ve been brushing him off, saying we need to get to know each other better first.”

"How did you manage to share a bed with a man and still keep it in your pants?" Jade curiously asked.

Mia knew Andre had come close a few times. She was relieved. "Andre's a gentleman. He knows I'm not ready yet, so he doesn't push. He respects me."

"That's rare."

Mia nodded. She thought Andre was a good husband, "He's not bad, but what he did this time was a bit too much. We're a couple, we should live in harmony, but he deliberately made me jealous with other women! Is he sick or what?”

“Mia, could he be trying to make you feel threatened, so when he comes home, you might give him what he wants?”

Mia blinked. She fell silent for a moment. "Jade, I think your analysis is very reasonable."

Jade said, "Of course. I'm telling you, don't act rashly, observe him for a while. Don’t give in easily."

As soon as he got off the elevator, everyone he saw smiled and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Cedillo."

Andre frowned. Why the congratulations when his Kittemia had run off in a huff?

Even Alice congratulated him.

Andre asked, "What am I being congratulated for?"

Alice was surprised, "Mrs. Cedillo hasn't told you?"

Did he spill the beans and ruin the surprise for the CEO?

Andre asked, "What's Mia supposed to tell me?"

Seeing that everyone in the CEO's office knew, Alice had no choice but to confess, "Mrs. Cedillo is pregnant."

"Pft, cough, cough", Andre was startled into coughing.

Andre asked again, "Mia's pregnant?"

Alice confirmed, "Last Saturday, Mrs. Cedillo called me asking for places you frequent. She said she wanted to surprise you—that she’s pregnant."

Andre was totally speechless.

How clever his wife is! "Don't go spreading this stuff anymore. Just to set the record straight, Mrs. Cedillo isn't pregnant. We were just playing hide and seek."

Alice looked at him, disbelief written all over her face.

Andre sent Alice away. Suddenly, he called her back. "Hold on a sec."

Alice halted, turned around, and respectfully asked, "Mr. Cedillo, is there anything else?"

"Alice, what am I supposed to do if a girl gets angry again?"
