Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 443

Mia nudged her husband Andre’s arm. “Hush, we’re in this together. Don’t let your old man hear. The money I swindle, isn’t it still ours?”

Andre laughed. “I told you to swindle less, not to stop entirely. If you take too much at once, he’ll get suspicious.”

“Sneaky!”

...

Molly just thought astrology and fortune-telling was fun but nothing serious. Two days later, she had a surprising encounter at the entrance of her office that made her truly appreciate the wonders of the universe.

Jack was standing there holding a huge bouquet of roses for her!

The bad apple! It arrived!

“Molly, just finished work?”

Molly said, “No, just taking a breather.”

Molly already finished her work, but she turned to head back into the office.

Quick as a flash, Jack blocked her path. “Molly, these are for you,” said Jack, extending the roses towards her.

The sight of Molly being given a bouquet of roses by a well-dressed man attracted the attention of her colleagues who were also leaving for the day. Discreetly, they observed the scene, not wanting to make a scene at the door.

Molly put her hands behind her back. “Jack, what are you up to?”

Jack didn’t seem offended by her question. Instead, he explained, “Molly, my family has been going through some difficult times recently, and I didn’t want to burden you with it. I just stayed away. Now, everything is back to normal. I can confidently pursue you.”

He offered the roses again, but Molly was firm in her refusal. “I've already said no. This is harassment.”

Unfazed by Molly’s reaction, Jack said, “Then consider this harassment, Molly. I like you. From the moment I saw you, I was amazed. I can’t forget how good you looked in pink the first time we met…”

“Stop.” Molly had no idea how annoying he could be.

Jack continued, “I know my family can’t compare to yours.”

“You got that right!” Molly was always confident and assertive, whether it was because of the prestige of the Cedillo family or the values instilled in her by the Byrne family.

Jack went on, “My parents have divorced, and I now control the company. I can give you a good future.”

Molly was infuriated. She took a deep breath and said, “I think you might not understand why I refused you. I just don’t like you.”

Jack responded, “Molly, you used to like me.”

“No, no, no. I was indifferent to you before. Now, I’m annoyed. Do you understand?”

Jack gripped the roses tighter and looked at Molly, holding back his frustration. Then, struggling to keep a pleasant demeanor, he said, “Molly, you have the right to refuse me, and I have the right to pursue you. I will keep trying until you agree to be my girlfriend. I love you, and that’s a fact.”

Molly retorted, “I’m not planning to lose weight right now, so please stop making me vomit.”

He tried to give her the roses again, but Molly refused. When he tried to force the roses under Molly’s arm, she warned, “Try to force me again, and I’ll have Chad come sort you out.”

Jack laughed. “Then call Chad. I’ll tell him the same thing I told you. I like you, and I won’t give up.”

Last time, Chad’s warning had scared him for a while, but this time, he wasn’t afraid of Chad’s threats.
