Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 151

She wore a turtleneck all day, hiding what looked like a hickey on her neck. It wasn't until she changed

into a low-cut tank top that her delicate neck and the noticeable purple spot caught everyone's eyes.

Leo hollered, "My uncle is so badass."

Mia joined in, "Definitely."

This man, cheekily referred to as 'badass' by his wife and nephew, knocked off work early. He grabbed

the movie tickets on the table, ready to pick up his wife. Along the way, he parked the car and got in

line to buy his wife a latte.

This was Andre's first time buying a latte, so he wasn't sure what his wife preferred. Therefore, he

asked the barista for a recommendation.

The barista suggested, "You could try our signature latte. It's quite popular."

He took the barista's advice and decided to get the signature latte.

The barista asked, "Would you like it iced, sir?"

Andre replied, "No."

The ladies in line couldn't help but sneak glances at this handsome man. Some were subtle, while

others were quite bold.

"He's so hot," someone commented.

"This guy looks like Andre."

Suddenly, the atmosphere turned quiet...

Everyone's opinion of this man changed. Initially, they were just attracted to his good looks and thought

it was a bit odd for a man in a suit to be buying a latte. However, after looking at the photo on their

phones, their opinions changed entirely. Everyone was stunned, unable to react.

Andre didn't hide his identity nor did he engage in much conversation with those around him.

Suddenly, the coffee for the person in front of him was ready. The coffee looked pretty good, he

guessed his wife would like it.

Andre stopped the lady, asking, "What's this one called?"

The lady was a bit surprised and froze. "This is... this is..."

"A new cappuccino," the barista said.

Andre turned to the barista, "Add another cappuccino, my wife should like it."

"Mr. Cedillo, are you buying this for your wife?"

Thinking of Mia back home, always so adorable, he lovingly replied, "She loves to eat, especially

roadside coffee and juice. I got off work early today, so I'm bringing her back a couple of cups."

The barista immediately started preparing his order.

Soon, Andre's coffee was ready. He took the coffee and made a call to his father at home.

Hansen was engrossed in a game, having a great time.

"I didn't realize you could play games on a phone. I can play this all afternoon without getting bored."

Hansen sat on the couch with his maid, playing on his phone.

"Mia is always sharing these fun and interesting games with me. She even plans to teach me how to

play this Pug game."

"Sir, Ms. Mia said the game is called PUBG."

Hansen waved it off, "Whatever it's called, my daughter-in-law is the best."

Suddenly, while engrossed in his game, Hansen received a call from his son. A bit irritated, he

answered, "Can't you just say it in the group chat? Why do you have to call and interrupt my game?"

Hansen lectured him. "Is Mia back yet?"

"Not yet, I guess she's probably on the road." Hansen continued playing his game. He asked, "Where

are you? It sounds really noisy there."

"I'm buying coffee for Mia."

Hansen immediately quit the game and put the phone to his ear. "Andre, get me one too."

Hansen added, "I'll have what Mia is having. She bought me one last time with pearls in it, it was quite

fun to chew on. Get me an extra serving."

Andre felt he shouldn't have made this call!

After hanging up, Andre helplessly ordered two more identical coffees for his father from the barista.

Once the coffees were ready, Andre took them and headed for his car. He called his nephew but no

one picked up. He called his wife and again, no one answered.

Andre checked the time, it was already four o'clock, school should be out by now.

He drove home. Upon arrival, Hansen was delighted to see the drinks in his son's hand.

Nobody noticed that this man in his sixties or seventies was so fond of snacks. Ever since his second

son got married, his diet had improved. The house was full of delicacies, but he preferred fish and

chips. He would rather stroll around the snack street than have high-end seafood served to him.

"Why did you buy four cups?" Hansen wanted to have three cups all to himself.

Andre placed a latte and a cappuccino on the table, he glanced at his watch, "Dad, haven't Mia and

Leo come back yet?"

"No."

Hansen took one of the coffees and examined it, it was a flavor he had tasted before. He started

drinking it straight from the straw. It didn't seem odd at all to see an old man with a coffee.

Andre waited at home until five o'clock, but they still hadn't returned. Moreover, he couldn't get through

to either his wife or nephew's phones. Could something have happened?

The more Andre thought about it, the more worried he became. He left the coffee on the table in the

bedroom, grabbed his car keys, and headed out again. He drove to Havenbrook University and found

his wife's classroom according to the directions.

But there was no one there, and nothing had happened on the way. How could they just disappear for

no reason?

At that moment, at The Silent RingGold Level.

Three matches had already taken place on the stage. The next one was Mia's.

Leo and Jade watched Mia nervously in the center, "Are you sure you can handle the opponent you

drew?"Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

In pivotal moments, Jade's mind often flashed back to their sophomore year. She vividly remembered

Mia's fall, how she lay immobile on the floor, her wrist grotesquely swollen, almost as thick as her

forearm.

Mia's gaze locked onto her adversary, who was clearly observing her in return. With confidence

emanating from her voice, she declared, "I've got this. I watched his match when he advanced from the

Red Level. He's riddled with vulnerabilities that he can't possibly rectify in such a short span."

Leo interjected with a note of caution, "He's a skilled karateka. The match that propelled him from the

Red Level to Gold hinged on his opponent's underestimation of him. You mustn't make the same

mistake. He strikes me as cunning. I wouldn't put it past him to have deliberately downplayed his

abilities in the previous round, just to throw you off in this one."

Mia nodded, she reassured her two friends, "Don't worry. If he wants to confuse me, do you think I'd be

so easily fooled? Everyone has their secrets."

Seeing the last round about to wrap up, Mia got up, shrugged off her jacket, and strutted out of the

waiting area in a black tank top, heading for the battlefield.

Her opponent was a guy codenamed "Eagle," who had a Doraemon face painted on his, making it

impossible for Mia to guess his age and stamina.

She could only gauge from his height and weight.

"Didn't expect Mimi to show up at the tournament with hickeys, looks like Mimi's been living it up, hasn't

she? Trying to blow off some steam, are we?" Eagle broke the silence.

Mia felt his gaze land on her neck.
