Chapter 119
Leo pointed at Mia's face and declared loudly, "Grandpa, I've told you guys before, don't be fooled by
her looks. She's actually super wild."
Mia gave Leo a swift kick, then tried to convince Hansen of her true nature, "I'm usually very gentle. Do
I not behave at home? This was simply because someone provoked me first, and I fought back.
Everyone gets mad, right?" By the end, she was stuttering a bit and clearly feeling guilty.
Hansen thought for a moment, then said, "But we don't get this violent when we're mad."
Scraping someone's face till it's bloody and dragging a girl's mouth across the ground were a bit much.
All Mia could say was, "Don't you think they deserved it?"
Hansen slapped his thigh in agreement as he remembered the insults those people had thrown, "They
totally had it coming!"
In the adjacent holding cell were another twenty or so students. They had all heard Leo call this old
man ‘Grandpa’ and Mia call him "Dad.’
Wasn't Mia Leo's girlfriend?
Then, the appearance of a certain man left everyone jaw-dropped.
Andre was here.
He had come to the police station to pick up his lovely wife.
On the way, he had been filled in on everything that had happened at Mia's school.
"Boss, this is why Mrs. Cedillo ended up at the police station." Noah explained during the drive.
Andre showed no emotion and just asked, "Is she injured?"
"Nope. It's the others who are injured."
"Who's the main culprit?"
"Barbara Marshal."
Andre muttered, "The Marshal family again."
"Buy Havenbrook University under Mia's name and make it public."
After saying this, Andre got out of the car.
Noah understood his meaning. He was going to protect his wife.
Andre walked into the police station.
"Son, you're here." Hansen greeted him first.
The students in the holding cells were shocked. This old man was the father of the business tycoon,
Andre!
Unbelievable!
But there was more.
Hansen pointed at Mia in the holding cell and said to Andre, "Your wife was bullied at school and you
didn't even know! What kind of husband are you?!"
The room went silent.
Someone whispered, "Mia's married? Her husband is..."
Everyone was looking at the man who controlled half of the world's economy.
Andre stood in front of the cell bars, looking at Mia, who was cowering inside.
"You got into a fight?" He asked.
Mia started bawling. For some reason, hearing Andre's voice filled her with sorrow. Tears began to
stream down her face uncontrollably.
She nodded.
"Did you win?" He asked again.
Mia nodded while crying.
It seemed like she was the one who had been bullied.
Leo was shocked at how easily she started crying, "Don't cry. Your husband is here already."
Andre didn't seem to have any intention of comforting her.
"Why are you crying if you won?"
Mia said in a pitiful and somewhat coquettish voice, "I'm afraid you're mad..."
She had caused trouble for her husband again. Mia was afraid that Andre would hate her.
Thinking that Andre might hate her made her feel like her heart was breaking, and she couldn't stop
crying.
On hearing her cry, Andre wanted nothing more than to take her into his arms. Why would he be mad?
He smiled and gestured for Mia to come over, "Come here."
Mia shook her head, "I'm scared."
Hansen interjected, "Mia, where was this fear when you were fighting earlier? You're scared now that
you see Andre?"
Andre's gaze fell on the marks on her arm, and his eyes became sharp.
Rage bubbled up inside him like a cauldron. His fierce gaze made him seem like a ruthless king of the
jungle, as he radiated a dangerous bloodlust.
Mia was observant. How could she not understand what her husband's eyes were conveying?
She thought Andre was angry with her, so she started crying out loud again in the cell.
Leo said helplessly, "Why are you crying again?" Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
"Hubby, I'm sorry."
A police officer couldn't bear to watch anymore. He opened the cell door, letting Mia out.
She wouldn't go. She was afraid Andre would hit her.
Leo said, "If you won't go, I'll go."
The officer pushed Leo into the cell, "Your guarantor hasn't arrived. You can't leave."
"I..." He pointed at Andre, "This is my uncle."
The officer looked at Andre, then at the information in his hand, "Mr. Cedillo is here to bail out his wife.
He didn't say anything about bailing out his nephew."
Leo's heart shattered.
Andre's mind was a mess as he listened to his wife's sobs.
He took the initiative to enter the cell and walked towards Mia.
Then, he lovingly wiped away her tears and tried to soften his voice, "Sweetie, stop crying."
Mia pouted but stopped crying.
Andre lifted her arm to check the marks on it with eyes filled with concern.
"Do you hate me now, hubby?"
"If I hated you, my heart wouldn't ache."
Mia clung to her husband's waist and snuggled into his arms.
Soon, Naomi and Bruce also arrived.
Seeing them, the officer stood up and greeted them respectfully, "Mr. Bruce, Ms. Naomi, what brings
you here?"
Bruce pointed at Leo, who was still in the cell, "We're here to bail him out."
Leo's words stunned everyone, "Dad, Mom, save me!"
The students were so shocked that they couldn't speak.
What exactly was their relationship?
Upon seeing Mia also there, crying non-stop, Naomi ignored her own son and went straight to check on
Mia. "Are you okay, Mia? Why are you crying? Who hit you? Are you hurt? Let me check."
Mia clung to Andre tightly, sobbing uncontrollably, "I... I'm fine…"
Naomi clearly didn't believe her. Her face was covered in tears; how could she be okay?
"Why are you hiding it from me? Why are you making me worry?"
Meanwhile, Leo was tugging at Naomi's sleeve, "Mom, Mom, I'm here."
Naomi didn't even glance at him. She continued to focus on Mia.
Andre was hugging Mia and said, "Mia is really okay. She started crying because she felt wronged
when she saw me just now. Now she's just being a drama queen."
Naomi was surprised by her behavior and struggled to find a response.
Mia, who had stopped crying, nodded and said, "I'm really okay. I won the fight."
