Chapter 109
After Leo sat down, the three popped open a bottle of drink each. They sipped on soda and continued to munch on sour candy.
Leo asked Hansen, “Gramps, are we treating you alright?”
“You guys treat me too well, way better than Andre. He only likes to criticize me and wouldn’t let me do anything. Think about it, isn’t he busy enough managing a company? How does he still have time to control us over ice cream? It really pisses me off.”
After Hansen finished talking, he grabbed another bag of sour candy to eat.
Leo also grabbed a bag. “He surely didn’t expect that although he stopped you guys from eating ice cream, he couldn’t stop you from eating sour candies I think Mia is really Andre’s match She’s so stubborn, I’m sure she’ll give Andre a hard time in the future.”
Andre kept quiet. He was using a pillar to hide himself, listening carefully to the accusations being made about him in the room.
With his hands in his pockets, he stood behind the pillar for five minutes before deciding to show himself.
At that moment, his wife spoke again, “Before he comes back, we need to quickly clean up the garbage on the table to not get caught. Otherwise, we won’t have good stuff to eat tomorrow.”
While eating. Leo said, “Mia, aren’t you very tough? Why are you so timid in front of him? You should bring out your previous momentum, have a big fight with him, make him bow in front of you”
Andre chuckled. Seemed like Leo was asking for trouble.
Mia: “I dare not. If I beat him, he might despise me for not being gentle and then cheat on me with other women. If he beats me, then I might be at risk of domestic violence in the future.”
Andre remained silent as he kept to eavesdrop..
Hansen also joined in the discussion, “Mia, don’t worry. I guarantee you that Andre will never cheat. If he cheated, he wouldn’t have remained single until 28, even having his marriage arranged by his father. As for domestic violence, I don’t think he will, either.”
“Why is that?” Unconsciously, Mia opened another bag of sour candy, and shared it with everyone.
Hansen said, “He treats you like a pet. How would he beat his most beloved pet?”
“He treats me like a pet, and even you know about it?” asked Mia.
Hansen nodded, “Of course. I love to chat with the housekeeper when I’m at home, so I know about everything at home and at the company I also heard that Andre, because of one sentence from you, decided to collaborate with the despised Richard Co
“That’s because he let me do whatever I wanted,” said Mia.
“Why doesn’t he let us do whatever we want, but only lets you? Isn’t it because he spoils you?” Hansen asked a question that made everyone start to ponder.
The sour candy in Mia’s mouth didn’t taste good anymore. She started pondering Hansen’s words.
Could it be?
*Mr. Andre, what are you doing, standing here?”
The question from the servant made the three people in the living room who were secretly eating snacks freeze as if they had been petrified.
It was as if their hearts had suddenly stopped beating.
All three of them looked in the same direction.
Then Andre slowly walked out from behind the pillar, coming into everyone’s field of vision.
None of them said a word.
Andre seemed to be smiling, but his eyes were full of threat.
“You guys are eating pretty well,” he said.
The three were stunned
Then, they said in unison, “This is what Mia bought.”
“Honey, I didn’t buy this.”
“Andre, I only ate one.
After saying that, the three of them exchanged glances.
They could sneak snacks together, but they couldn’t share responsibility.
Andre sat on the sofa He picked up the sour candy wrapper from the ground, “Who started this?”
Without hesitation, Leo and Hansen pointed at the girl next to them
Mia looked at the two of them. She opened her mouth, showing her teeth, as if she wanted to bite them.
Andre stood up from the sofa, “Come to the study with me.”
Mia said to Leo, “Go on, he’s calling you”
And just then, she suddenly had her arm grabbed by a man.
“Hey, honey, why are you grabbing me? I know how to walk.”
Andre took his wife to the study
As soon as Mia entered, she started to find new topics. She praised Andre’s study, “Wow, your study is all black, so cool-“Even though she didn’t like black.
“Wow, there are so many books on your bookshelf! My husband is really knowledgeable.”
Andre leaned back in his chair, one hand casually resting on the table, watching her awkward compliments.
“Go on,” said Andre
Mia bit her lip. She lowered her head.
What was to come would come
I’m sorry, I was wrong”
“Tell me where you went wrong” Mr. Cedillo treated his wife like a subordinate. His questioning was very oppressive.
Mia had never experienced such a moment. She was scared.
“I shouldn’t have made you angry, I shouldn’t have eaten sour candy when my stomach was uncomfortable, I shouldn’t have brought your father to snack so soon after he was discharged from the hospital But, honey, I was really careful! I washed the sour candies that your dad ate with water. It’s okay for him to eat a little=”
Andre asked her, “Anything else?”
She said, “No more”
Andre: “Do you need me to say it for you?”
Mia thought about it, then nodded. “Then you say it. I don’t think I’ve done anything else wrong”
It seemed that she was suddenly not afraid of Andre.
“Have you had ice cream today?”
Mia shook her head.
Andre asked again, “You really haven’t had any of it?”
Mia shook her head again.
Mr. Cedillo asked her for the third time, “Do you need me to show evidence before you admit?”
Mia frowned. She really hadn’t eaten any ice cream. “Honey, eating sour candy is my fault, but don’t falsely accuse me. Although I really wanted to eat ice cream today, I just lay on the freezer at the supermarket entrance and watched for ten minutes. I said I didn’t eat, then I really didn’t eat. Since | promised you, I will keep my promise, even if I want to eat, I won’t.”
Andre originally just wanted to scare her
He didn’t expect her to really not eat.
And because of his distrust, she was now angry too.
Even though it had been her fault in the beginning, Mr. Cedillo now felt somewhat guilty.
“Alright. I misunderstood you.”
“You should apologize!” she said.
Mia’s courage seemed to have grown a lot recently, perhaps because of Andre’s pampering, which made her temperamental.
Andre gently touched his nose. His tone softened, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have distrusted you.”
“Hmph, even if you apologize, I am not forgiving you!”
With that, Mia strutted out of the study room, head held high.
Andre was confused.
The tables seemed to have turned.
Wasn’t he the one who was supposed to be lecturing her?
Back in the living room, Leo pulled Mia aside and asked, “How did he punish you?”
Hansen also leaned in curiously, all ears for some juicy gossip.
Mia said, “He just apologized. We’re married after all. We can’t really go all out and have a fight.
