Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 35

She went on, "But, I gotta stand up for the rights as the lady of the Cedillo family, even if it means going down fighting for Leo's rightful shares."

Bruce frowned upon hearing his wife, "Naomi, you gotta cut ties with the Marshals."

"Why?"

Bruce looked at his wife's bruised face. He wanted to scold her, but he felt more pity. "You're a real dummy, getting used and not even realizing it."

...

The next day, Mia was up from the couch early, and so was Andre. "If you want to go to the Irvins, I can drop you off."

"Nah, if I go too early, it'll make my folks suspicious."

Andre watched her get busy. She got dressed and then put her pajamas in the suitcase.

It was like this every day. Andre found her behavior very inconvenient and even had the urge to tell her to put her clothes in the closet.

But soon, he shrugged off the idea. Her inconvenience was none of his business.

At breakfast, Naomi and Bruce were not home.

Although Hansen was displeased with Mia's behavior, he knew that he couldn't criticize her, so he didn't bother.

At the dining table, following his rules, no one talked.

In the morning, Jillian came to the Cedillo family. Hansen was annoyed, and he had her driven away straight away.

In the afternoon, Naomi came back.

"Fine, I know my place in my family, the Cedillo family, just you wait."

She left for the dinning room.

Recently, things were happening one after another at home, Bruce and Andre both hurried home right after work.

Andre's home schedule got more regular than it used to be. He never told anyone, but only he himself knew that when he was not home during lunchtime these two days, he would feel very uneasy, and even food tasted bland. He was constantly worried about how to handle it if Mia caused another dispute in the family.

He often checked his phone while having lunch. Whenever a call from home came in, his heart would beat faster than usual.

Bruce felt the same. When he left in the morning, he specifically told Naomi not to argue with Mia again.

Naomi behaved very well in the first two days, but when she found out Hansen was more inclined towards her, she started to get cocky, even wanting to insult Mia again.
