Chapter 22
Andre twirled around, “Why are you trailing me?”
“Andre, we need to move out,” Mia sincerely said. “If I keep squatting at your place, your sister-in-law,
your brother, and maybe even your dad will fall sick because of me.”
She pleaded with her eyes, “Okay?”
She didn’t want to stick around here anymore. She wasn’t fond of any of the Cedillos.
Hansen, the hard-headed one, Naomi, the annoying one, and Bruce, the incomprehensible one, all of
them drove Mia up the wall. Andre was her husband, supposed to be the person she was closest to in
the Cedillo family. But, he was the one in the Cedillo family who disliked her the most.
Mia even thought, maybe renting a tiny apartment outside would be better than living in this grand
house.
Seeing her wanting to bolt, Andre swallowed hard, “As long as you don’t piss me off, you can treat
them however you want.”
After that, he left.
Little did he know his young wife would one day push him to the brink of hospitalization. At this point,
he still found her words amusing. How much damage could she possibly do to send someone to the
hospital?
But, to let her move out, wasn’t that letting her off too easy? She had finally married into the Cedillo
family. Why not enjoy the perks of being a Cedillo?
Andre smirked, “Mia, I hope you have a good time in the Cedillo family.”
In the dining room, Hansen, after hearing the staff’s explanation, grasped the situation.
“Did she really say all that?” Hansen asked the staff.
They nodded, “Those were their exact words.”
Hansen’s face twitched, he banged on the table, “All of you leave, and clear up the dishes.”
“Yes, sir.” The crowd dispersed, leaving only the butler by his side.
Hansen said, “One moment, I find her likable, the next, she does something I can’t stand.”
The butler knew who “she” referred to – Mia, the new bride of the Cedillo family.
The butler, from a neutral standpoint, said, “Sir, something seems off. Ms. Naomi might be biased
against Ms. Mia, but she wouldn’t stoop so low as to insult her. Ms. Naomi has always been prideful;
she wouldn’t say something that degrades her unless something happened or she has been provoked.
Ms. Mia did insult Ms. Naomi, which was wrong, but if we look at it another way, Ms. Mia is a good
child. If she hadn’t been forced to marry into the Cedillo family,

she wouldn’t have acted out. But Ms. Naomi insulted her family, and it’s only natural for her to be upset. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Both of them are at fault. This issue needs to be further investigated.”
Hansen and Naomi had a good relationship for over twenty years. During these years, he had come to
see Naomi as his own daughter. When something went wrong, Hansen’s first instinct was to blame the
newcomer, Mia. After all, what parent would readily admit that their child was at fault?
Fortunately, the butler was there to keep him in check.
Hansen ordered, “You said Naomi has encountered something or been provoked? Investigate. Check
what Naomi has done today, whom she met, and what she said. If I find out someone is deliberately
stirring up trouble, they won’t be let off easily.”
