"Honey, I'm not hungry, but I still want to eat something. I can't get the food from Majestic Dining
Enclave out of my mind." She said with a pitiful expression.
Andre sat up from the bed, "It's 2 a.m. now, Majestic Dining Enclave should be closed."
Mia nodded, "Darling, could you help me relax so I can fall asleep?"
Andre didn't know what to say. He was no hypnotist. He got up, went out for a bit and returned with
something. He took out a dress from the wardrobe for Mia to change into, "The Majestic Dining Enclave
is open again."
At 2 a.m., a restaurant was open just for one person.
Andre still maintained his image as a business tycoon. When they arrived, the manager and six staff
members were waiting at the door.
Mia sat in the lobby, leaning on the table, and sipping soup from a bowl. There were also four dishes
she wanted in front of her.
The six staff members stood by, serving dishes as they were ready.
Andre was dressed in a dark gray shirt with a black suit jacket over it. He sat across from Mia, legs
crossed, leaning against the back of his chair, and gazing at his wife in front of him.
Mia felt a bit embarrassed. She had casually mentioned something, and her husband had taken her
words seriously, even bringing her here.
Mia buried her face in her bowl. She ate while everyone watched. Andre told the manager, "All the
dishes are served. You can go home now."
The manager glanced at Mrs. Cedillo sitting across from him and understood his intention.
"Alright, Mr. and Mrs. Cedillo, enjoy your meal, call me if you need anything."
After the manager and his team left, Mia finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Honey, don't spoil me like this.
You'll spoil me rotten."
Andre chuckled, straightened up, and used utensils to serve food onto his wife's plate. "Even if you're
spoiled, I'll take responsibility."
After this, Andre realized that his wife would wake up in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep
without eating something. Later, the Cedillo family's chef would prepare a late-night snack for Mia every
night.
Molly also returned to the Byrne family on the weekend. One day, she was awakened by the heat.
The leaves outside the window were bright green, and the swallows were chirping at the eaves. Early
summer had arrived. Many of her classmates had started wearing short sleeves and long skirts.
Checking the temperature on her phone, Molly thought of Mia sweating in class because of the heat,
she immediately got up, took a shower, and called a cab to see Chad.
She hadn't been to the police station for a while. Whenever she came, the police officers treated her
like family. "Molly, have you fallen in love? You haven't had time to come to the station to hang out with
us recently."
Molly retorted, "Who would dare to be Officer Chad's brother-in-law? I'm afraid he'd investigate them
thoroughly before they even confess to me."
Officer Chad listened to his sister's complaints without getting angry. He was smiling the whole time
and gave an order to his subordinate in a good mood, "Go to the bank and investigate the financial
records of this company. Classify any suspicious accounts for further investigation."
"Yes, captain."
The subordinate left to carry out the task. Chad looked at his younger sister, who was still sleeping
soundly in the morning when he left.
"You are up. What do you need from me?"
Molly leaned over and hugged Chad's arm, "Chad, accompany me shopping."
"I'm busy. Go find our mom."
"No, mom and I have different tastes, and we always argue when we shop. You come with me, and
you'll be the one to pay." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Chad didn't know what to say. In his sister's eyes, he was interfering with her love life, helping her solve
problems, and helping her pay bills.
"Here's my bank card. Go shopping by yourself."
"But I'll be so pitiful. People go shopping with their boyfriends or girlfriends. If I go alone, people will
look at me." Molly whined.
She added, "Mia is pregnant. If I drag her shopping, Andre will get angry. Unless you find me a
boyfriend, you have to come with me."
Chad reluctantly said, "Wait for me there. I'll go with you after work."
"Okay." Molly was pleased, she left her brother and ran off to have fun.
Soon, she was off to another place.
When Chad finished work, he couldn't find his sister. "Who has seen Molly?"
Everyone in the station shook their heads, "Haven't seen her for a while."
In the end, Chad found his "missing sister" in the forensic department. The coroner joked when she
saw Officer Chad, "Officer Chad, if you had a Molly by your side, you probably wouldn't even find a
wife."
Molly curiously asked, "Why is that?"
"Because there's only you in your brother’s heart, and there’s no room for anyone else."
Before Molly could respond, Chad grabbed her head and pushed her out of the office. Under the gaze
of the police officers, Officer Chad took his mischievous sister into his car.
She waited at the station for Chad for two hours, just to have him accompany her to the mall to buy
maternity clothes.
Chad, "I'm not paying for this. You buy Mia's clothes with your own money."
Molly frowned, "But, this dress is expensive. I can't bear it."
"My money is for you to spend. If you were pregnant, I would buy all the clothes in this store for you.
Mia's clothes should be paid for with Andre's money."
When Chad said that, Molly couldn't stay angry. After all the fuss, it turned out that her brother was just
a fastidious Virgo. She laughed and said, "You're such a picky brother."
Chad didn't say anything.
When they went to pay, the salesperson mistook them for a couple and even asked, "How many
months is your baby?"
Later, Chad just went outside and waited by the railing while his sister shopped.
Hearing these words, Molly suddenly realized that her relationship with Chad was too close. Some
folks thought she was her brother's girlfriend, while others mistook her for his wife, and some even
assumed she was Chad's baby's mama. The coroner also said that because of her, her brother couldn't
even find a girlfriend.
Molly watched Chad's retreating figure, feeling totally vexed.
"Actually, I'm not the one who's pregnant, it's my friend. The guy just now is my brother."
Molly walked out the door, with shopping bags in hand.
Chad smoothly took the shopping bags from her and held her hand, leading her to the women's
section.
Molly kept her distance from her father, but not from her brother.
"Can you let me date someone? Then he can go shopping me like this, and you can go do your own
stuff."
Chad responded, "You're still young. Why the rush to get a boyfriend? I haven't even found a girlfriend
yet."
Molly didn't hold back, speaking her mind, "But when I'm with you, everyone thinks we're a couple."
"Just think of it as you helping me dodge the pursuers. I don't plan on finding a girlfriend until I'm 30."
Molly did the math and groaned, "Agh, so I can't start dating until I'm 25?"
"Are you already thinking about dating?"
Molly nodded, "Mia's about to have a baby and I don't even have a boyfriend."
"You have me as a brother, but she doesn't."
