Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 1125

Mia lived in Maplewood Estates and one day, she got three phone calls. Hansen was missing his grandson so much that he couldn’t sleep and had no appetite.

Meanwhile, Mia was lounging on a deck chair by the pool. She was fanning herself, dressed in a comfy nightgown, watching her husband and son splash around in the water. Little Henry was like a glowing ball of dough, pale, soft, and absolutely adorable. His tiny arms were energetically creating waves as he played with his dad.

Summer was in full swing, the noontime sun blazing down on the pool. But by afternoon, as the sun started to set, the pool water was pleasantly warm, and she wasn't worried about Henry catching a cold.

Hansen called and said, “Mia, how could you just leave me all by myself at home?”

Mia chuckled and asked, “Did you run out of tokens in your games again or did Candy Crush stump you?”

“…Yeah, I ran out. Stuck on level 1000-something, and Harry Rayner beat me to it again.” Hansen confessed sheepishly.

Mia teased, “Got that summer craving for shrimp scampi again?”

“Hey, I didn’t say that,” Hansen quickly deflected.

“Dad, just hang tight for a couple more days,” Mia reassured him. She hadn’t let her husband back in their bed yet after a little tiff. “We’ll bring the little rascal back soon,” she added.

After handling one call, she moved on to the next.

“Sweetheart, are you planning not to visit us at all? If not you, maybe Chad and Wayne could swing by?” her father asked.

Molly replied, “Dad, sounds like you don’t miss me at all, huh?”

Mia needed to go back to the Cedillo family home because it was closer to the library, and it was on her husband’s route. Though Maplewood Estates was convenient, she felt like she was tackling everything solo. Plus, the library and Cedillo Inc. were in opposite directions, making daily drop-offs a hassle.
