Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 326

She adjusted her sitting position slightly, letting her feet touch the ground, "Does this feel more normal now?"

Andre still looked quite skeptical, "After dinner, I'll measure your height with a ruler at home to see if you're short of calcium and your legs have shrunk."

"Dear, don't you trust me?"

Andre looked at his wife's legs, which indeed seemed a bit shorter.

Before long, the four chefs of the Cedillo family had served up the dishes they prepared for Mia.

Mia picked up her utensils, hoping her husband would join her, "Eating alone is so lonely, it shrinks my appetite."

Andre was very strict with his diet, so he called out to one of the servants, "Go get my father."

Soon Hansen arrived, huffing and puffing.

After dinner, Andre fetched a ruler from the storage room. He had his wife stand against the wall while he took a pen to measure her height.

Hansen, who had just finished eating and was strolling around to aid digestion, curiously approached them to see what they were up to.

"How tall is Mia?" he asked as he approached.

Andre looked at the number on the ruler, "Still around the same number, she hasn't shrunk."

Mia exclaimed excitedly, "See, I told you my legs haven't shrunk, but you didn't believe me. Andre, don't you love me anymore?"

Andre was left speechless. He had already given her his heart, yet she was still unsatisfied.

"Measure both of my legs. See how long they are." Mia requested.

Andre crouched down and began to measure his beloved wife's legs with the ruler.

"Dear, the ruler should reach my waist, not just my thighs. My legs start from below the chest."

Andre, "Alright, alright, I'll measure your waist." Andre, in a teasing manner, almost placed the ruler under her armpit. "Okay, done. My Mia is a long-legged beauty."

Upon hearing that she was indeed long-legged, Mia happily made some room and pointed to the wall, "Dad, you should measure yourself too. See if you've shrunk."

Hansen was unwilling. He took a glance at his son and comforted himself. He was almost as tall as his son when he was young. Now that he was old, it was natural to had shrunk a bit.

Andre held the ruler and asked his father, "Do you want to measure?"

"No." Hansen haughtily straightened his back, trying to appear taller, and walked away from the couple with his cane.

Mia muttered to her husband, "Still defending his dignity. Even without measuring I know he's not as tall as you."

Hansen, who hadn't walked far away, was quite irritated. If it weren't for the fact that his daughter-in-law was pregnant, he would have kicked them out.

He decided to find a good child to comfort his bruised ego. But which one of them was good?

"Where's my daughter?"

...

Now that the opening ceremony was over, Molly finally made her appearance.

Mr. Ashford looked at his son and asked with a smile, "Have you fallen for Coleen's daughter?"

Jack's face turned slightly red, "Dad, it was love at first sight." But it seemed like she wouldn't be that easy to win over.

Mr. Ashford encouraged his son to pursue her, "You really have high standards. Your mom introduced so many girls to you and you didn't like any of them, but you fell for the Byrne family's daughter. Jack, if you want to pursue her, you might have to put in a lot of effort. If you succeed, not only Ashford Inc., but also Chade Inc. will be yours."

Jack asked some questions about the Byrne family, and Mr. Ashford said, "Her dad's a big shot in the government, and her brother is no slouch either, Chad has a bright future ahead. You see, they all spoil her rotten, and the future of Chade Inc. is hers. If you can win her over, we can band together, no need to seek help elsewhere. Her family's backing is the best support."

Jack's heart was all aflutter hearing his father's words, making him all the more keen on wooing that girl.

"I had a chat with Coleen today, she doesn't know you well, so she told me that Molly's marriage would be up to her father's decision. But if Molly says yes, her family will be on board. Jack, you're a hotshot, scoring a doctorate at such a young age, go pursue her with confidence. I'll be here, waiting for good news."

Jack nodded firmly, "I will, dad."

As soon as Molly reached the doorstep of home, she kicked off her high heels and swayed slightly. She held up her dress and headed upstairs to take a shower.

Seeing her daughter's back, Coleen said to her husband, "Look at your daughter. She's definitely going to get the cold shoulder in the future."

Mr. Kendrick asked, "That young man who wanted to get my daughter's contact info today, what's his deal?"

"He's Mr. Ashford's son, returned home last year, he should have a good impression of Molly." Coleen asked, "Don't you like him?"

"He seems immature, I don't like him." Mr. Kendrick said discontentedly, "Just met once, and he's already chasing after her for her contact info, what's that supposed to mean? It's shallow."

Hearing her husband's words, Coleen couldn't stop laughing.
