Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 146

She's like a mystery box, this girl. You never know what's going on in her head, you just gotta roll with it.

In the bedroom.

At last, Andre got to crash on the bed, just like he wanted.

The hairdryer started humming as he's reading.

His wife was drying her hair, sometimes whispering things that piss him off, but also sharing funny things that happened during the day.

"Honey, ever since Jade got the title of school belle, she's been quite the catch. Today as we were leaving school, a guy asked her out for a movie.

But the guy had the worst timing! Of all times, he had to ask her out when her brother Chad was there. Chad's like a hawk when it comes to Jade, he wouldn't let her get picked on.

No way he would let some random dude take his sister out."

Listening to his wife, he felt content while reading.

"So, did the guy have any luck in the end?"

The hairdryer stopped. She sat in front of the mirror, applying skincare products.

Then she got up, kicked off her shoes at the end of the bed, and scurried to the head of the bed like a little animal.

Andre pulled back the covers.

Mia slipped right in.

She settled beside her husband and continued, "No way, Jose. Chad's got her under his thumb, any guy wanting to ask her out would have to get past him first. I bet that guy nearly wet his pants today."

Inside the blanket, Andre felt a foot brushing against his leg.

He looked over at the little girl who seemed a bit lost.

Mia apologized for her carelessness, "Sorry honey, I didn't mean to kick you."

With that, Andre stretched his leg under his wife's foot on purpose, letting her kick him.

"Hmm?" Mia looked at her husband, puzzled.

Andre frowned, "Why are your feet so cold?"

Mia didn't know what to say.

So now, her husband was trying to warm her feet with his leg?

Andre put down his book, his hands reaching for his wife's soft hands.

Her hands were warm, but her feet were cold.

He'd heard that if your hands and feet are cold, you should see a doctor.

Mia's feet were freezing after she got out of the bath, so he quickly grabbed her hands to check. If her hands were also cold, they would need to see a doctor first thing in the morning.

After warming up a bit, her feet gradually returned to normal temperature and Andre went back to his reading, picking up the book from the bedside table.

Mia leaned over curiously, "Honey, you're always reading. What are you reading?"

She peeked at the content of the book, finding many phrases she didn't understand.

"The Odyssey."

Mia said, "And who is this Odysseus?"

She knew she was being fobbed off by her husband again.

Andre replied, "He's in the book."

Mia flipped through the book but found no clue. "Can you translate for me then, what's this book about?"

Andre said, "If I translate for you, I need some benefits."

He looked at his wife's red lips, "Haven't you given me my benefits for today?"

"I did, you forgot? In the car, you kissed me. I remember clearly, I didn't let you kiss me."

Mia retorted passionately.

She almost wanted to transfer her memory into her husband's brain, to let him remember clearly what happened today, to stop taking advantage of her.

However, in the end, she was kissed.

Mia gave up resisting.

This man hadn't even explained the story in the book to her yet, but he'd already taken his benefits.

She picked up her little bag and books, and climbed into Leo's passenger seat.

"Mia, did you really hit my uncle?"

"Mhm, sure did."

"Then why isn't there any injury on his face?" Leo asked curiously, noticing his uncle's flawless face.

Mia donned her sunglasses and confidently lowered the top of the convertible. Basking in the sunlight, she proclaimed, "It's all internal."

Leo was momentarily at a loss for words. He felt like giving Mia a thumbs up. She had the power to inflict both external and internal distress on Andre with her fiery temperament. Was there anything she couldn't achieve?

Upon reaching school, they noticed Jade, who appeared drained.

Spotting Mia, Jade made an effort to seem more upbeat, offering a soft "Hi." Moments later, she rested her head, signaling her intent to grab some shut-eye.

Mia and Leo exchanged a glance, looking at Jade, "Jade, what did you do last night? You look so down." Leo asked.

Mia asked, "Did you go digging up graves again?"

Leo gave Jade a round of applause and asked, "Really? How many generations deep?"

Jade: "All of them."

After she said that, Jade wasn't sleepy anymore.

She sat up from the desk and started recounting her experience from yesterday to her two friends.

"My brother, Chad, is definitely a Virgo!"

Leo suddenly remembered his own zodiac sign, realizing he was a Virgo too, and he instantly got all gloomy. "What did Virgos ever do to you?"

Jade clenched her fists and growled, "Do you guys remember the dude who asked me out to the movies yesterday?"

The two by her side simultaneously nodded, "Of course, we do. Chad scared him off in just under two minutes fifty-seven seconds."

Jade gritted her teeth in anger, "And that's not even the worst part! Chad went home yesterday and spent a good two hours digging up every little detail about that guy's family background. Who he has spent the night with at which hotel? When he's been hitting the bars for dates? And get this! He even found out that the guy was playing three different girls at the same time!"

The two on the side were speechless.

Their eyes were pleading for one thing, spill the tea!
