Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 186

Andre went to his study. Picking up his phone, Andre asked, "Do we have the comparison results yet?"

"Our experts have analyzed the skull. Molly's picture has a 60% similarity with the current Jade."

"Any luck with the surveillance footage?"

"No dice. Jade was wearing a sweater with huge sleeves that day, it covered up any marks on her arms. The spot you mentioned, it's tough to find on the cameras."

Andre brooded for a bit in his office. Noah suggested, "Mr. Cedillo, maybe your wife could take a look at the bite mark? She and Jade are tight."

"If we're not a hundred percent sure, I can't get Mia involved. She and Jade are close, if she's discovered, it could cause a rift in their friendship."

Risking his wife's friendship over an uncertain matter, and possibly pissing off her friend's family was the last thing Andre wanted. If somebody suddenly told you that you might not be your parents' biological child, anyone would be pissed. Only when he was absolutely certain would he tell Mia.

"I remember the Byrne family's parents' blood types. One is type A, the other is type AB. Chad's blood type is also A."

Noah didn't get Andre's point.

Andre said, "Molly's blood type is O."

Noah got it.

"But, Mr. Cedillo, we can't get to Jade. Our surveillance shows her brother picks her up and drops her off every day. She's at school, she's with your wife all day, even when they go to the bathroom."

Noah couldn't quite understand girls' friendships. Why did they have to go to the grocery store together? Or even the bathroom? Can't they survive being apart?

And even if Ms. Mia didn't need to go to the bathroom, she'd rather wait outside the door just to accompany her friend. Girls' friendships, so weird. Guys just didn't get it.

Since Ms. Mia was always around, and Noah had seen videos of her matches, he didn't dare to offend her. So, they could only observe from afar.

After school, because Chad was a cop, they also didn't dare to get too close.

Andre said, "The school admission test includes a physical exam form, which should record the blood type. Jade's blood type would have been recorded when she was born. All you need to do is compare the two."

Noah had an epiphany. Mr. Cedillo was so smart, even remembering details like the school physical exam.

"Got it, I'll investigate right away."

Noah left.

Andre put down the phone, opened the photo album, and looked at Jade's picture. The more he looked, the more he thought the five-year-old Jade looked different from the Jade now. The more he thought about it, the more he believed Jade was his real sister.

Leo was leveling up in a game in his bedroom. Mia was also on her phone playing with him in his room.

"I'm so glad we didn't teach dad to play League of Legends, otherwise we'd have to play with him all the time when we're bored."

Leo, a game enthusiast, said, "We can't teach him all the games, he's old, knowing how to play Candy Crush and cards is enough. You taught him to play PUBG, and he's been dying all the time in the game using my account. One time, he even ran over a teammate while driving! I had to apologize to that guy for ages."

Mia laughed, "How many levels did you drop then?"

"Even if I drop more levels, I'm still higher than you."

As they were chatting, Andre knocked on the door, "Mia, you've played enough, time to shower and sleep."

"Oh okay, honey, wait for me a bit, I'm about to win."

Mia continued to play with Leo, "I'll teach dad to play Candy Crush tomorrow."

"Yeah right, these skill-based games are too hard for old folks."

After winning a round, Mia packed up her phone and left.

In the bedroom, Andre just came out of the shower, slightly disgruntled, "Don't always play with Leo. You're my wife. If people didn't know, they might mistake you for his girlfriend.”

The next morning, Andre offered to take his lovely wife to school.

Mia asked, "Why?"

"Does your hubby need a reason to give you a lift?"

Mia pouted. Although she might have seemed a bit silly when she was in love, under normal circumstances, she was quite smart. Was her man planning to see Jade?

"Honey, do you have some ulterior motive, or are you interested in someone else?"

Andre, "Who else?"

Andre was always a step ahead of Mia in terms of intelligence. He knew his wife was talking about Jade, but he chose to play dumb and shot back with a question. This way, his wife wouldn't give him a hard time.

Mia refused his offer to drive her.

"Since the start of school, I haven't had a chance to drop you off. I'd like to meet your school's executives."

"No need, the biggest executive in the school is sitting right next to you."

Andre had backed himself into a corner.

In the morning, he didn't manage to drive her. But in the afternoon, he successfully picked her up.

At the classroom door, the sight of the man outside the window took everyone by surprise.

Everyone urged Mia to look outside. She turned to see a man outside, softly smiling at her.

Jade joked around, "Whenever you see a man, your eyes narrow into slits with a smile."

"Who said my eyes are a slit? I can see clearly, my eyes are narrowed to a thread."
