Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 1055

The maid asked, "Mrs. Mia, any dinner requests for tonight? I'll give the chef a heads-up."

Mia smiled and said, "Let's go with whatever Henry fancies. My husband and I are easy."

Lately, young Henry's been a bit fussy with his meals. He's been turning his nose up at food, but the minute his parents start eating, he's right there, trying to sneak some bites.

After the maid left, Andre headed downstairs to get the car. He parked right at the hospital's entrance, making sure Mia and Henry didn't have to walk a step more than necessary.

Henry was bundled up snugly by his mom, only his misty eyes peeking out. He had on a fluffy red scarf, a Donald Duck mask, and a matching hat. His little hands were tucked away in his sleeves.

Mia was on edge after Henry's recent illness and took every precaution.

Back at the Cedillo house, Henry sat on Mia's lap, gazing at the familiar yet strangely distant decor. Having been away, everything felt a bit new. He stood unsurely on the floor, only feeling safe when holding his parents' hands.

It took a good half-hour for Henry to realize, oh, this is home too.

Anya, always the worrier, got a video from Mia showing Henry playing around, with Mia saying, "Henry's doing better now. How's your mom, Anya?"

Anya replied, "Aunt Mia, after the holiday, Mom's heading to the hospital."

"Isn't she due in March?"

"Yeah, but Mom's on the older side, and the doctor suggested inducing. Dad thinks the hospital's the best place for her."

After their chat, Mia went to coax her son into eating.

They had lunch at the Jiang's, spent the afternoon with the Irvins, and made it back to Maplewood Estates by evening.
