Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 961

Cedillo Inc., CEO's Office.

Andre looked at the little rascal in front of him, slamming his hand on the desk. The noise startled Henry, who immediately burst into tears, his pouty little mouth trembling as he threw himself into his father's arms, sobbing.

"The boss, Ms. Anya is here," the secretary announced after a knock on the door.

Andre glanced at his crying child and asked, "Is she alone?"

"Yes."

Andre nodded, and the secretary exited. Shortly after, Anya appeared in Andre's office.

"Uncle, uncle," Anya said, feeling a wave of guilt wash over her. She had been the one to ruin the Cedillo family's celebration party, and ever since, she had been nervous about meeting her uncle by herself.

Henry, halfway through his tears, scrambled onto his dad's executive chair, nibbling as he climbed. Standing on his dad's belt, which stretched across the waist of the chair, he used the edge of the belt to prop himself up, plotting his next act of mischief. Suddenly, a familiar voice made Henry turn his head, recognizing a friend.

His little hands clapped together excitedly, eager to play with Anya.

Andre, holding his son's hand to keep him still, asked, "What brings you here?"

Anya replied, "Uncle, I've gotten Chad into some trouble."

Hearing his nephew's name, Andre's heart skipped a beat, and he unconsciously tightened his grip on his son.

Henry, feeling uncomfortable, started to whimper and fuss.

Anya explained the recent events in detail to Andre.

"Uncle, will they press charges against Chad?" Anya asked worriedly. "They started it."

Andre's grip loosened, and Henry turned around, laying on the desk, decisively closing his dad's laptop with a slap.

Andre took a deep breath – his son, understanding nothing! Now he's just a baby; he'll deal with him when he's a toddler!

"When is he resigning?" Andre asked.

Before Anya could reply, her phone rang.

Henry, following the ringtone, also looked at Anya's phone.

"Uncle, it's Chad."

Andre nodded.

Anya took a deep breath, answering the phone casually on speaker, "Hello, Chad."

"Anya, I had my phone on silent because I was running some errands. Did you call me for something?" Leo, sitting in his car and seeing the missed call, hurriedly called back.

Anya shook her head, "No, nothing. Oh, Chad, when are you resigning?"

"I submitted my resignation today. I'll wrap up the paperwork tomorrow and bring my things back."

After Leo finished, Henry began to make his presence known with his babbling.

"Hey, why do I hear a little chub on your end?" Leo's tone was as casual as ever, always burying his emotions deep, pretending as if nothing had happened.

Hearing the little bundle's voice, "Oh, you're at home, right? This little chub, calling for his dad at home, don’t you see how close father and son are now? Just you wait, when Henry grows tall enough to reach the door handle, my uncle will definitely be disciplining him."

Anya silently worried for her boyfriend, quietly turning off the speaker and putting the phone to her ear, "Chad, maybe tone it down a bit."

Henry, looking at his stoic dad, drooled from his little mouth. Andre, expressionless, doted on him tirelessly!

After hanging up with Leo, Anya became even more cautious.

Andre watched his son and said, "Hold him."

"Huh?"

Paige, with her back to Andre, did not see him approaching.

When she turned around and saw Andre, she was too shocked to speak.

"Henry." Andre called out to the little darling in the crowd.

"Ooh." Henry, sitting in his brother's box, had no intention of leaving.

"Andre, Andre!" Lee stuttered out.

Leo and his uncle locked eyes, Andre glancing at his nephew before lifting his son from the box, "Following your Anya around for fun again!"

Henry pouted, "Babble."

"Still knows I'm your dad." Andre held his son close.

Leo looked down, his aura instantly overshadowed by his uncle. It seemed, no matter what, he could never surpass his uncle.

Anya ran excitedly to Andre's side, "Uncle, Chad is leaving his job today, and I've brought the baby to pick up Chad."

While Vincent was still in his office concocting devious plans against Leo, the door suddenly swung open. Lee burst in, his face a mask of horror, "Boss, Andre's here."

"Who?"

"Andre, Andre Rivers."

Vincent hurried out, only to be confronted by the man he could never hope to equal, holding his son in one arm.

Beside him stood a young girl, "Uncle, are you here to pick up Chad as well?"

Everyone looked between Leo and Andre, noticing the striking similarity in their faces, as if a secret was slowly being unveiled.
