Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 129

Mia hopped off her hubby Andre's lap, gripping his index finger as they both stepped outside.

"Man, Mia's like Andre's shadow, she can't go anywhere without him. Every time she couldn't find him,

she hunted him down."

Two maids whispered on the stairs.

"Yeah, last time when Mia woke up and Andre was at work, she was pacing around the house, asking

anyone and everyone where her hubby was. When she found out he was at the office, she hightailed it

there."

"Just now, Mia asked me the same thing. She was about to go downstairs for a meal, but when she

heard her man was in his study, she turned right around and zoomed upstairs."

"Young love, right? They stick together like glue. Mia just can't get enough of Andre; she's practically

attached to his hip all day."

The maids' whispers reached the couple's ears at the bottom of the stairs.

The more Mia heard, the more her little mouth puffed up, and she put on a cute pout.

Andre, hearing the whispers, was in high spirits. It seemed like when he was not at home, his wife was

always looking for him.

"So, you can't live without me, huh? Can't bear to be apart for even a moment, huh?" He teased his

blushing wife.

Mia stamped her foot in frustration. She marched up to the railing, leaned forward, and glared at the

whispering maids.

"What on earth are you all jabbering about? I don't wake up and immediately look for my husband! I

don't pace around the house looking for him! And I'm not clingy! Stop making stuff up! If anything, it's

my husband who can't live without me!"

"Mia?!"

The maids jumped in surprise. They were busted while gossiping about their employers.

Andre pulled Mia back and patted her back. "Don't get mad; they didn't say anything wrong."

Mia clung onto her husband's shirt and cooed, "Darling, am I really that clingy?"

Andre chuckled, "Just the right amount, exactly how I like it."

Mia wasn't pleased with his answer.

So the annoyed young lady let go of her husband and marched down the stairs to the dining room.

Once there, she bumped into Leo.

"How long did you sleep in for?"

Leo saw Andre following Mia and swallowed his criticism, "I was up late studying last night."

"You've got some nerve." Mia said.

She sat down, and a maid served her breakfast.

"Where's my husband's?" Mia asked.

She always threw around casual questions like, "Where's my hubby?" "What's my hubby doing?" "My

hubby..."

She didn't mean much by it, but it made others think she was super attached to her husband.

Next to her, Andre pulled out a chair and sat down, "I already ate."

He was only here to keep her company.

Mia gently pushed him away, "Don't worry about me; go do your thing. If you hover around me, people

will think I always need you by my side and that I'm too reliant on you. It's alright, I have Leo here."

Andre was all smiles, "I want everyone to know that I'm here because I want to be. Can I do that?"

Mia bit her lip. She turned to the two maids in the dining room, "Remember, it's my husband who's

clingy, not me. Clear that up if you hear anyone saying otherwise. I'm not always stuck to my husband's

side."

The two maids struggled to suppress their laughter. Mia was just too adorable. "Yes, we understand,

Mia."

Mia nodded in satisfaction.

During breakfast, Andre had a question for Leo. "Have you taken your ACCA exams?"

Leo shook his head, "Not interested."

"Use your free time to study, pass your ACCA before your junior year, and prepare for grad school."

Leo, feeling pressured, responded, "Andre, I don't want to take these exams."

Mia, with food in her mouth, glanced at Leo, then turned to her husband, who was hard to read.

Andre said, "I didn't ask for your opinion."

Mia knew Leo better than she knew Jade.

She saw the frustration and pressure in Leo's eyes, and his sigh told her that he didn't like the path

Andre had chosen for him.

Mia watched Leo give in and quietly eat his breakfast.

She turned to her husband. She felt that he was unhappy, especially after Leo's comment about not

wanting to take the exams.

The dining room, which had just been lively, was now eerily silent.

Mia wondered if she was overthinking things.

"Darling, can I ask you something?" Mia raised her hand in front of Andre.

Andre held her hand and looked at her with adoration, "Ask away."

Mia bit her lip, "Do I need to take that ACCA you mentioned?"

"If you're interested, go for it. If not, no need."

Andre's response made Leo envious.

Mia asked again, "Darling, is it hard?"

Leo chimed in, "It's hard and boring."

Mia turned to her friend, "If you don't like it, then why are you studying it?"

Leo glanced at Andre and said nothing.

It was clear.

This path was also chosen by Andre.

Mia turned to her husband, "If it's hard, then I won't learn it."

"It's okay; I’m here. If you want to learn, I’ll tutor you. One-on-one, no fees, just benefits.”

Andre emphasized ‘benefits’, causing Mia to imagine scenes of them being lovey-dovey, so she Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

blushed.

“I won’t learn.”

Andre seemed to know what she was thinking, and he began to laugh. He casually said, "Eat up; I'll

take you driving later."

"Do we really have to practice driving?" Mia wrinkled her face.

"Darling, can't I just stay put and not learn how to drive?"

Andre asked, "Don't you want a luxury car?"

Mia had no such ambition, so she shook her head, "I don't want one."

Andre asked again, "Don't you want to be able to go anywhere you want?"

Again, Mia had no big dreams, so she shook her head, "There are taxis and you to pick me up."

Andre was somewhat frustrated.

Why was his wife so against learning how to drive?

He asked, "What if I have to travel for work and there are no taxis nearby? What will you do?"

Mia replied, "I could ring up my dad or give Leo a buzz."

"You sure have a lot of backup drivers." Andre placed his wife's left hand on his heart, "Are you really

not keen on learning?"
