Chapter 204
Andre pretended to pour water and eavesdropped for a bit: Leo was finally pulling his weight, giving
him a great idea.
His identity was enough to intimidate outsiders. Who dared to touch his baby? No one.
Andre walked over, handed his wife a bottle of water, "Have some water."
The thought of her husband cornering her in the changing room earlier made Mia fuming. So she
arrogantly turned her face away, "I don't want it."
"Shall I take you there today?" Might as well announce his existence.
Mia was angry and frustrated, "I don't want you to take me, I want to find a handsome guy to take me
home and make out in front of you to piss you off, to really piss you off."
Mr. Cedillo was blushing, annoyed by his cute wife, but he kept his smile.
Good!
A little spat made them feel more like youngsters.
After all, they were going to a friends' gathering, so Andre didn't let his cute wife feel embarrassed. He
would deal with this later when she came back in the evening.
Mia and Leo left in the same car. Before getting into the car, Leo said, "Mia, I might have to drink with
some people today. If your husband comes to pick you up later, remember to take me with you."
"Mia? Call me Aunt Mia when we're out!" Mia deliberately asked Leo to call her that in front of her
husband.
Mia got in the car, full of joy, and set off.
The agreed-upon location was on the rooftop of a hotel, which had various entertainment facilities, an
outdoor swimming pool, and a gym.
The weather was cold, so nobody used the swimming pool. Everyone went to the sofas on the side, the
table filled with alcohol.
At the hotel entrance, they waited for Jade before going up together. Leo was really popular among the
guys and he fit right in.
"We're going to have drinks later. You two don't drink." Leo reminded them.
Mia nodded, "Don't worry, Andre doesn't let me drink."
Jade shook her head, "I only drink when I'm with you two. If other people are around, it's not safe for
me to drink."
Leo nodded, "Later, just say you're allergic to alcohol. If anyone tries to get you drunk, call me right
away. I checked the guest list tonight, Pete's also here. He's been chasing Jade for three years, he's
not a good guy. Be careful, don't accept any drinks from him."
Jade and Mia both agreed to Leo's words.
The elevator reached the top floor, and Leo stood in the middle and walked out first. Someone saw him
and immediately stood up, smiling as they handed him a drink to welcome him, "Mr. Leo's here, come
on, our golden boy is here."
Leo took the offered drink, naturally clinked his can with the other guy's, took a swig and said, "You
guys got here early."
Someone tried to hand Mia and Jade a bottle of alcohol, but they refused, "We'll just have a soft drink."
"Just have one, it's a can and it's not opened."
Leo, holding his can, turned to look at Mia and Jade, "You two can’t drink, if we get drunk later, who's
gonna call us a cab?"
Someone offered Mia a drink, "Mia, you look so cute today. If you get drunk, I can take you home."
Mia thought to herself, Should I tell them my husband is Andre and give them a scare? "No need, I'm
allergic to alcohol."
Soon, another boy offered Jade a drink. "We can't just take care of Mia, Jade will always be a goddess
in my heart. Jade, have a drink, it's not strong. If you get drunk, I can take you home."
Jade looked at the offered bottle, "Thanks, but I'm also allergic to alcohol."
Leo stretched out his hands to block the two guys, one who was interested in Mia and the other, Pete,
who was trying to impress Jade. "Leave these two ladies alone, let's go have a drink."
Mia and Jade exchanged a look, Mia said, "Leo really does care about us."
Jade nodded, "I think so too."
They looked around the room and saw a few familiar female friends. Someone waved at them, "Mia,
Jade, come here."
They walked over. They met a classmate who had returned from abroad, Mia asked a lot about the
foreign country, because her younger brother was studying there. Her parents mentioned that Cooper
wanted to come home, as he didn't want to study abroad.
However, his parents hoped he would finish his studies abroad before returning, because Aaron
intended to expand the Irvin family business overseas.
Mia cared about her brother's situation, so she was particularly concerned about students studying
abroad, asking them more questions, and also getting some information for her brother.
Leo was sitting in a group of guys, when someone joked, "You always have two beauties by your side,
after all these years, who have you chosen?"
Leo: "One of them talks too much, the other's quick to act, how dare I choose?"
"Leo, do me a favor, introduce me to them."
Leo didn't wait for him to finish before he refused.
"Jade's brother is a cop, and last time someone chased her, her brother found out right away. Mia... I
advise you guys, she has a boyfriend, you better not mess with her."
Leo knew, besides their looks, these guys also cared about their backgrounds.
Jade's father was a senior official with great power. Her brother had a promising future and was bound
to make a name for himself. All the businessmen were looking to marry into their family.
Mia was a businessman's daughter, and who would refuse a strong alliance?
Now someone quietly asked Leo, "You and Mia are really close, is she really married?"
After Mia got married, she posted some suggestive instagram posts on social media, showing gifts,
occasional dates, dinners, movies, which led everyone to speculate whether Mia had a boyfriend. And,
their fathers would also tell them that the Irvin family and the Cedillo family were now related by
marriage.
However, Mia never publicly disclosed it on instagram.
What confused everyone was that even before the three of them arrived, everyone was already
speculating whether Mia was engaged. Combined with Leo's previous warning, that person who
shouldn't be messed with, could it be...
Leo glanced at Mia, "Let her tell you guys."
Someone noticed the wedding ring on Mia's ring finger and everyone exchanged glances, "Mia, are
you in a relationship?"
Mia looked at her ring finger, "I'm already married."
"What! You're married? That 'husband' on your Instagram is for real?"
Mia: "Do you think I'd make up a fake one just to fool you guys?"
Everyone was totally gobsmacked! Their classmate’s actually hitched! Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Looking at Mia, everyone was at a loss for words.
"Mia, why didn't you spill the beans? When did you tie the knot? Who's the lucky guy?" Three questions
were asked in a row.
