Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

How could she have known the assassin would whip out a poisoned blade just like that? From behind the bushes, Mia was fuming, "Babe, check out this guy playing dirty! What a scumbag! Using weapons in a fight is one thing, but sneak attacks? You gotta have a chat with the boss of The Silent Ring. This guy's got zero integrity; he shouldn't get a Black Pass."

Mia watched as the two men tumbled around, feeling the itch to jump in. In her mind, it's all about helping the underdog! And now she had a new motto: never help those who play dirty. "How is this guy getting overpowered by another dude? I'll take care of it. Oh, babe!"

Suddenly, Mia remembered the eyebrow razor in her purse. Perfect!

She zipped it open with one hand and grabbed the blade, but before she could leap into action, she was pulled into a strong embrace. "Ouch, babe, your chest hit me."

Andre frowned, taking the blade from her hand, "Where did you get this?"

Mia blinked her bright eyes, "...It's for my eyebrows."

Eventually, her husband took the blade away, but just then, hearing the gunshots, Ms. Aimee rushed over and saw her husband with a gun in hand. She was so shocked that she dropped her wine glass, which shattered with a sharp crash.

Mia turned around and saw that it was game time!

Right when Andre failed to catch his little "cat" again, she squatted down, grabbed the glass shards, and with one hand held back by her husband, she nailed the assassin's wrist with the other. Bullseye!

"Yay!" Mia jumped up, thrilled.

Then a gunshot rang out, wrapping up the assassination attempt.

The woman beside him, stunned, turned to lock eyes with Mia. Mia hoped she hadn't scared the lady too much. Probably not; this woman wasn't exactly timid.

As the assassin hit the ground, his eyes full of rage fixed on Andre and the young woman in his arms.

If it weren't for her, he would've finished the job!

Andre held his brave little wife close, "Mia, you're in big trouble!"

Mia wrapped her arms around her husband's waist, snuggling up, "Honey, that guy was terrifying. Hold me tighter."

Andre's breath was hot with frustration, "Who said you could get involved?"

"If I hadn't, that guy would've been stabbed in the forehead!"

Another set of soft arms wrapped tightly around Andre's waist. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, knowing deep breathing was good for the heart and lungs.

With Mia's bold intervention, Andre kept her close wherever he went afterward.

Henry watched his seemingly well-behaved mom, always sticking by his dad, and wondered: What's mom been up to this time?

At the next banquet, Mia felt a bit isolated from the other ladies, with her giving off a chilly

vibe, making her too nervous to

break the silence.

The party wrapped up, and she never left her husband's sight.

Later, Mia found out who she had saved. She realized she hadn't just saved a man, but had also disrupted a conspiracy, turning the Cedillo family into heroes for three major families. noveldrama

The man she rescued met with Andre personally, "Andre, the Harris family owes you a life debt." He was the father of that stunning young girl.

Patrick also met with Andre, giving his word as a gentleman, "Should the Cedillo Group ever need anything, the Hernandez family will be there to help."
