Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 361

Tom was given the assignment, and he immediately began investigating the identity of the girl in the

video.

Meanwhile, Brian had inadvertently given Finley a crucial piece of information, allowing him to avoid a

potential punishment and was let go.

The next day, Tom came to Finley with the results of his investigation, saying enthusiastically, "Boss,

we might be looking at a game-changer here. Molly is Jade, and the Byrne family saved her life fifteen

years ago."

Upon hearing this, a sly smile spread across Finley's face. "Ha, no wonder when someone wanted to

investigate Chad and get him suspended, Bruce put his career on the line to stop it. So the two families

have this kind of relationship."

Tom also felt pretty good about this. "Sir, what's our next move?"

"I bet the Byrne family never thought the little girl they saved fifteen years ago would turn out to be

such a troublemaker."

...

"Molly, what on earth were you doing on your first day at work?" The Byrne family all gathered at their

house, listening to Coleen chew her daughter out.

Molly was hugging Chad's arm, hiding behind him with a guilty expression.

Chad looked at her fondly. "What did you do on your first day at work?"

Molly glanced at her mother and whispered, "I didn't like the low salary of the administrative intern, so I

went to the financial department on my own without telling Mom."

Chad chuckled. "You really take advantage of the fact that the company is owned by our family, don't

you?"

Coleen pointed at her daughter and complained to the family, "Can you believe her? I dropped her off

at the office in the morning, and when I went to pick her up in the afternoon, they told me she had quit.

She spent the whole day with Ms. Villanova."

Molly frowned and said, "But Mom, the salary you offered was really, really low."

Coleen was so angry she wanted to smack her daughter, but Kendrick held her back, laughing. "Come

on, if Molly switched to the financial department on her own, it means she's smart. She knows where

the money is. It's related to her major anyway, so let's consider it a learning experience."

Coleen was still fuming. "She wants to intern in the financial department? Over my dead body! She's

going to the administrative department, and that's final."

Molly's chin pressed against Chad's shoulder once again as she spoke to him, and the warmth of her

breath wafted directly onto Chad's neck. "Chad, my salary is really low."

For some reason, Molly always enjoyed being around Chad.

Feeling the warmth of her breath on his neck, Chad felt a flicker of emotions for her, his Adam's apple

bobbing.

Molly added, "I can't even afford to take care of myself." All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Chad gave her a smile, pulling out his own paycheck. "Listen to Mom. Be a good intern for two months,

and you can have my salary too."

Molly didn't hesitate to pocket Chad's paycheck. "Chad, you're the best."

Just then, Chad's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and disentangled himself from Molly. "I need

to take this call outside."

Molly let go of her brother and sat between her grandparents, finding herself new pillars of support.

A moment later, Kendrick's phone rang too. His smile faded when he saw the caller ID. He let go of his

calmer wife and headed outside.

Five minutes later, Chad returned to the living room. "Molly, I have to go to the station. I won't be home

tonight." He said nothing to anyone but his sister.

Coleen asked her son, "Is Molly the only one you see? What about your mother?"

Chad replied, "Mom, I have to go."

As soon as Chad left, Kendrick reappeared. "Honey, Mom, Dad, Molly. I need to step out. Don't wait up

for me." With that, he hurried out as if there was an emergency.

With both Byrne men gone, Molly curiously moved closer to her mother. One minute, Molly would anger

her mother, and the next, she would be her darling little girl. They had just had an argument, and now

Molly was leaning against her mother, curiously asking about the sudden departures. "Mom, why did

Dad and Chad suddenly leave? Is something big happening in Havenbrook?"

The last time father and son went out at the same time was for disaster relief. A severe snowstorm had

stranded over two hundred thousand people in the city. Chad had gone to maintain order, while

Kendrick had been in charge of coordination. Back then, the three of them had even volunteered. It had

been a while since her father and brother had both received calls and left at the same time.

Coleen frowned at her daughter's question. That was right, why did they both leave?

Meanwhile, over at the Cedillo family, four unexpected guests had arrived. At the time, Mia and Leo

were fighting over the TV remote. "Tonight is the finals. I'll give you the remote after I finish watching,"

Leo said.

Mia grabbed the remote with both hands. "You can watch the live stream on your phone. My show is

about to start. Let me watch first."

Naomi watched the two children fight over the remote. For a moment, she felt as if Mia were not her

sister-in-law, but her own child like Leo. But then Mia's swollen belly reminded Naomi that this was not

her child. "Leo, why are you fighting with Mia? You go back to your room and watch the game on your

computer."

Ever since Mia had moved in, Leo had been somewhat neglected. He complained, "Our TV is bigger,

and it's more enjoyable to watch on it. You tell Mia to watch on her phone."

"Phones have radiation. You better be careful, or I'll tell my husband that you're bullying me at home,"

Mia threatened her nephew, confident in the support of her husband.

Hansen, always one for a spectacle, pulled out his phone and filmed the two fighting over the remote.

"Andre, look, Leo is bullying your wife. He won't let Mia watch TV."

Leo retorted, "Don't think I don't know. You and Mia are in cahoots. You both want to watch the show."

The lively living room was filled with playful bickering, and Bruce watched with a constant smile, not

bothering to intervene. The occasional minor squabble only made their house feel more like a home.

Just then, four people in police uniforms arrived at the Cedillo family home. The lively living room fell

silent at their sudden appearance.

Mia and Leo's hands were still glued to the remote as they turned their heads to the entrance. "Who

are they?"

The butler leaned in close to Hansen's ear and discreetly explained the intentions of these people.

Hansen suppressed his playful nature, set aside his phone, and his expression, as if by magic, instantly

turned cold, returning to the time when he exuded a commanding presence. "Take the kids upstairs."

Mia and Leo exchanged a glance, confusion mirrored in their eyes. Why were they being singled out?

Sensing that something was off, despite their burning curiosity, they obediently left the living room. With

a friendship that had spanned over a decade, they understood each other. They seemingly complied,

but as soon as they slipped behind a pillar, they halted in unison.

They looked at each other. "I'll eavesdrop. You stand guard."

"Deal."
