Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 183

This time, two of her friends bought cars, and she didn't have the nerve to ask him for one. She'd just upset him and hadn't made up yet, so she didn't dare to ask.

Mia had a sudden thought and said, "Jade, how about I drive you home today?"

Jade didn't think much of it and said, "Chad will pick me up."

Mia continued, "You've never ridden in my car before, let me take you home. I haven't been to your place in a long time."

Leo, on the other hand, was at a loss and even tried to stop Mia. "Aren't you supposed to go home with me tonight? If you take Jade home, won't that mess up our plans?"

Under the table, Mia stepped on Leo's foot. "You never talk when you should, but you can't shut up when you shouldn't."

Leo looked innocent, what had he done wrong?

Jade also said, "Mia, how about you drive me next time? I really need to behave myself recently, I really can't mess with Chad anymore. If Chad dies young one day, it's definitely because I pissed him off."

Mia, "…then I'll go with you to your place. With me there, Chad won't bully you."

Jade scratched her head, looking at her friend with a puzzled frown. Something seemed off about Mia.

"Tell me straight, did you have another fight with your husband and plan to hide at my place?" Leo, the forgetful one, spoke out of turn again, "No way, she kissed Andre in front of me when she left this morning, they couldn't have fought so soon."

Jade got excited in an instant, "Mia, do you kiss your man every morning now? Hey, you've really learned the ropes. You know how to kiss now. Tell me everything."

Mia bit her tongue and turned to look at Leo, who deserved a punch. "Leo, if you die young one day, it'd definitely be because I beat you to death!"

Leo held his tongue. Why couldn't he speak freely now?

Mia continued to look at Jade, and casually lied, "Jade, I want to borrow a book from you."

Jade's eyes lit up immediately. She looked at Mia, "What? Do you have some secret in mind?"

Mia nodded with a perfunctory smile, deliberately misleading Jade, "Something like that."

"You should've said so earlier, I could definitely find what you want to read. Come home with me today."

Mia successfully made it to her best friend's house.

In the afternoon, when Chad came to pick her up, Mia went along. Sure enough, Jade behaved well in the car and Chad didn't scold her.

Once home.

Jade led Mia into the bedroom. She knelt down and pulled out a bag from under the bed filled with novels she had bought. But Mia took out a book titled Money and Banking from a nearby bookshelf.

"This is the one I want to borrow."

Jade was shocked, "Aren't you into those kinds of novels like The Domineering CEO is in Love with Me?"

Mia said, "Andre is the domineering CEO, and he's quite fond of me. Why would I read about others when I have the real thing?"

Jade glanced at the economics book in Mia's hand. Feeling something was off, she stood up and kicked the books under the bed, then walked over to Mia's side, picked up a book, and asked, "What do you need this for?"

"My husband wants me to get a banking qualification certificate. I remember you have this book, so I want to borrow it."

Mia's words sounded very sincere, leaving Jade confused and suspicious. "If you had told me you wanted this book earlier, I could've brought it to you tomorrow, why bother making a trip yourself."

"I think it's more sincere to come and get it myself."

Jade, "…I think you're a little crazy."

Mia, "Considering how Chad's been bullying you lately, I'll let it slide."

The two sat down and started chatting.

"This is when I was a month old, this is when I was one hundred days old."

Mia said, "Jade, do you have any photos from when you were a bit older?"

"What's the rush? Didn't you say you wanted to see my embarrassing photos? Let's start from when I was born."

Mia was eager to see the later photos.

"This is when I was three years old, Chad took this photo holding me."

The photo was taken at Chad's school. Their parents went to a parent-teacher conference and brought her along. Chad held Jade in his arms and took a photo at the school.

With each photo, Jade explained the story behind it to Mia. "This is just before I turned four, my parents took me and Chad on a trip…"

Mia, "Where's your photo when you were five?"

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Then, the bedroom door was pushed open by Chad, calling them, "Jade, Mia, come out and eat."

Jade turned to look at Chad, "Chad, why do you always barge in after knocking?"

"Quit the chatter, come out and eat. I have to go to the police station later and won't be home tonight. The maid will be back soon, she'll stay with you tonight."

Mia said, "Chad, I won't be dining here. My husband will come to pick me up, and we'll return to the Irvin family."

Then, she continued to check the photos in the album with Jade. Just as Jade was about to flip to the next page, Chad slammed the photo album shut in her hands. He was frowning, clearly ticked off, and gave Jade a stern look, "Eat first, or I'm gonna confiscate this album."

Frowning, Jade wanted to refute Chad's assertive attitude. But seeing the resolve in Chad's eyes, she didn't dare to talk back. "Fine, I'll look at it later."

She grabbed Mia's hand, "Let's go eat, Chad's cooking today."

Mia shot a glance at Chad, then her gaze fell on the photo album.
