In an amusement park, Michael quipped, “K, I thought your son was already a year old, only to find out he’s just starting on baby cereal?”
Mia replied, “You wouldn’t understand the exhaustion of parenting until you’ve done it yourself. It makes time feel endless.”
Cooper demanded, “Why didn’t you video call me!!”
Aaron also commented, “Look how my adorable grandson is craving it, trying to snatch the bowl away.”
Mia responded to her father, “Dad, your grandson thinks the baby cereal isn’t tasty, but still loves to grab at it.”
Even Mia’s OB/GYN chimed in with a comment, “Oh, has little Henry learned to ‘sit’?” The doctor knew about the rule Andre had set for his son: learn to sit, then eat.
Andre also posted on Facebook, a rare occurrence for him!
So, when everyone saw Andre’s post, they couldn’t believe it. They even visited his profile to make sure it was the real Andre and not an imposter.
The photo was sneakily taken by his wife, featuring his large hand alongside his son’s tiny one. Even without a caption, one glance at the wristwatch was enough to identify the hand as Andre’s.
Without a message from Mia, and since Andre posted only a picture of himself and his son both holding a bowl, Mars Arrowood asked, “Andre, why are you competing with my son for food?”
In the photo, father and son were fighting over an empty bowl.
Conner Nettleton teased, “Mars, do you think Andre is actually feeding our son?”
Mars: “…”
The news that Andre’s son had started on baby cereal somehow made it to the media through a screenshot taken from Mia’s Facebook. Since it showed only his little chubby fingers, the Cedillo family didn’t manage to control the information.
That evening, the photo trended online, with comments erupting like, “Look at the baby’s hand next to his dad's, ah, so heartwarming!”
“Andre feeds his child himself at home? Where’s the nanny?”
“The child is theirs, of course, they’d feed him. Wealthy parents aren’t like nannies; they invest their energy and emotions, personally involved.”
“I can never forget the sight of Andre holding the little one while buying a diamond ring for Mrs. Cedillo. So much love.”
“With such a handsome dad, I’m dying to know what the baby looks like. Rumor has it Mrs. Cedillo was the campus belle, so curious about the baby’s looks.”
The more they protected Henry’s face, the more curious everyone became about his appearance.
Soon, someone commented, “He’s cute and chubby, super adorable. But he cries a lot, a little upset and he’s in tears, his mom’s exhausted every day.”
Following this, many “insiders” described Andre’s baby as “chubby” and “crybaby.”
Employees of Cedillo Inc. couldn’t resist joining the online gossip, “Henry is indeed the cutest, softest baby I've ever seen, but… he really does cry a lot.”
“+1 to the comment above. The CEO brings the baby to the office, and sometimes meetings can’t even proceed because little Leo starts crying. Eventually, another Leo had to chair the meeting.”
“Another Leo?”
Leo’s identity began to unravel online.
Even more, some speculated that the future of Cedillo Inc. might not be inherited by Andre’s biological son but by his nephew.
Before the Cedillo family could react, the internet was already abuzz, clamoring for the six-month-old to inherit the company.
Mia, using an anonymous profile, commented, “Andre is still very much alive, there’s no need to discuss inheritance now.”
