When Leo opened his laptop to access Anya's computer screen, Anya was clueless about what Chad had typed. Before she could even process it, her entire browsing history was staring back at her.
Leo scrolled through the list, “You started watching at 4 PM and didn’t stop until 9:30 PM; last night you were still at it at 2 AM, and the day before, you kept going until 3 AM… One series a day, Anya, you’re even more into this than Henry.”
Anya blinked in disbelief. She had just deleted her history, thinking that would make it disappear.
“Chad, the browser tricked me! It said once I deleted it, no one could see it.”
“That might be true for others, but don’t you know what your boyfriend does for work?”
Anya bit her tongue, deciding to stay quiet.
Leo leaned back in his chair, eyeing his girlfriend, whose face had rounded from indulging in too much comfort food, “Start packing your bags.”
“Chad~ If I come over, I’ll just be a nuisance.”
Leo grinned, “I chose this ‘nuisance’ as my girlfriend, so I’ll just have to bear it.”
Seeing that it was getting late, he added, “Let’s wrap this up for today. Get some sleep. Tomorrow, I’ll check if you’ve packed properly.”
Leo had been plotting to bring Anya over for a while, and he wasn’t about to back down now.
Anya puffed her cheeks, giving Leo a look filled with mock despair, not realizing her binge-watching had earned her an early trip to Havenbrook.
“Chad, I really don’t want to go.”
Leo replied, “Whether you want to or not, you have to come. If you don’t, someone else might start eyeing your boyfriend.”
Anya asked, “When are you coming to get me, Chad?”
Leo smiled with satisfaction, “I’ll be there on the 22nd.”
After hanging up, Leo felt too distracted to study, disliking the day’s pointless socializing that seemed to be a favorite among businessmen.
He glanced at his phone and saw Mia’s latest post about little chubby Henry.
Henry had gotten clever; he knew that when his parents held him, they’d eventually set him down. So, whenever they tried to make him stand, he’d cling to his little legs and cry his heart out, refusing to let his feet touch the ground.
Mia, pulling on Henry’s legs, was amazed by his strength. “All that eating wasn’t in vain; he’s really strong.”
Andre picked his son up again, with Henry snuggling tightly against his neck, nibbling him to show affection, finally calming down.
Andre soothed his son, patting his back until Henry, too lazy to even yawn, fell asleep on his shoulder.
Leo, watching the video, chuckled, “Lazy Henry, falling asleep before he even moves.”
Molly saw the clip too and quipped, “Henry is definitely lazier than me.”
Kendrick, ever curious, loved watching videos of the Cedillo family’s little bundle of joy. Whenever his daughter had a new video, he’d rush to watch. This time, Molly handed her phone to her dad and headed to Coleen’s study. “Mom, I need to talk to you.”
Coleen replied, “If it’s important, sit down; if not, out you go.”
