Chapter 234


    Andre nodded approvingly, hoisting his arm onto his wife''s shoulder as they entered the living room


    together.


    Molly and her father were the only ones yet to be criticized by Andre, and they both seemed a little ill at


    ease.


    Hansen put down his phone, and Molly instinctively looked for herfort zone, moving to a different


    spot on the couch. For Molly, sitting next to her father was the most reassuring.


    So she sidled up to Hansen.


    "Dad, are you scared?"


    Hansen reassured his daughter, "Don''t worry, I''ll protect you. Your brother can criticize me, but he can''t


    criticize my little girl in front of me."


    Molly was moved. The pair seemed to have forgotten about what happened the previous night.


    Bruce sat on the couch, patting his son beside him, "Spent the whole day at home again?"


    Leo, "Went out and solved two issues."


    Bruce nced in the direction of his wife and didn''t say anything.


    Mia asked Andre, "Got any ns tomorrow?"


    "Tomorrow, I''ve set aside all my time to be with you."


    Mia''s eyes curved into a smile. "You remembered."


    She had already scheduled an appointment with her hairstylist to get a new hairstyle. She had been


    looking at many hair essories online that day, but none had appealed to her.


    She invited Molly and Naomi to take a look together.


    Suddenly an advertisement popped up on Mia''s phone, and she identally clicked on it.The theme of


    the ad caught her attention.


    Mia, holding her phone, was shifting her gaze between Hansen and Leo. Then she forwarded the link


    of the ad to the family group chat.


    As their phones simultaneously buzzed, everyone pulled out their phones to check the content.


    "Molly, check your phone."


    Molly did.


    Leo read the fastest, roaring withughter as he reached the end, "Hahaha, ording to the survey,


    baldness skips a generation. Mia, your son in the future…"


    Hisughter abruptly stopped.


    Leo raised his head to see the whole family staring at him. The atmosphere suddenly turned quiet.


    Leo asked a foolish question, "So, based on the generation, am I going to go bald too?"


    Everyone in the room, except Leo, burst intoughter. Even Naomi wasughing at her own son''s


    silliness. Hansen too, cracked up.


    He should''ve been mad, but seeing his grandson acting foolishly, he couldn''t help butugh.


    Leo was so absorbed in contemting the possibility of Mia''s future son experiencing baldness that he


    forgot he himself was also Hansen''s grandson.


    "What? I''m going to go bald!!!"


    Miaughed, holding her stomach, "Why do you think I sent this to the group chat?"


    Andre was also amused by his nephew. Unexpected misunderstandings were often the funniest.


    After a while, Leo was embarrassed, "Stopughing! What''s so funny, you''re allughing your heads


    off."


    "Leo, I''m getting a new haircut tomorrow. Do you want toe with me and get an early hair


    transnt?"


    "Buzz off." Leo took his phone and left the room.


    After he left, Mia nced at her husband''s thick hair and said, "Guess I don''t have to worry about my


    hubby now."


    Andre took her back to their bedroom. Choosing a hairstyle was something they could discuss while


    lounging in bed.


    Bruce and Naomi also went back to their room. In the bedroom, Naomi giggled, "Honey, isn''t our son a

    bit slow?"


    Bruce replied, "We had him checked when he was born. There''s nothing wrong with him."


    Leo was in his room, frantically searching, "Does baldness run in the family? How to prevent


    baldness?"


    Naomi was in the bedroom. As Bruce was getting ready for bed, he asked his wife, "Did those two call


    you again today?"


    The smile instantly disappeared from Naomi''s face, and she nodded, "Based on their tone, I think the


    illness is quite severe this time. Your son didn''t want me to go, so he went instead. And he even


    Bruce wiped his face with a towel, then walked out of the door. "If you don''t want to deal with these


    things, just let our son handle it, he knows how to manage this kind of things better."


    Thinking of Leo, Naomi''s heart warmed a little. For the first time, she felt that having a son had its


    perks. "I don''t want their issues affecting my son''s future."


    Bruce said, "Though Leo may seem slow at times, he''s clear-headed when ites to serious


    matters."


    From a young age, he was educated by Andre, teaching him principles and how to navigate life. It


    wasn''t about learning all the qualities from Andre, but if he could learn just a little, he wouldn''t make


    foolish decisions.


    Naomi didn''t argue with her husband on this matter. Since Ellory was discharged, she decided to let it


    go.


    Late at night, Mia finally narrowed down her choices to three hairstyles, nning to try them out at the


    salon the next day. Before going to bed, she lifted her head, and Andre''s arm automatically lowered.


    The couple embraced, turning off the lights and drifting off to sleep.


    The next morning, the couple left the house after breakfast.


    They had nned to take Molly with them, but she said, "I have examsing up, I need to revise at


    home."


    Mia pursed her lips, responding, "You''re shameless."


    Not long after they left, Chad called Molly, "Are you at home?"


    "Yeah, Chad. What''s up?"


    "Dress up, I''ll pick you up in a bit for a study session at the library."


    Molly sighed, "Oh no, now I really have to study." She changed her clothes, grabbed her books, and


    walked out of the living room.


    Under the watchful eyes of the Cedillo family, she said, "Hansen, Bruce, Naomi, I''m off to the library to


    study."


    Hansen admired his industrious daughter, believing she had a strong drive to seed.


    After Molly left, Naomi and Bruce turned their attention to their clueless son. Leo said, "Only those who


    aren''t good at studying need to study for exams, I don''t."


    Bruce asked, "Didn''t Andre ask you to get a certification?"


    Leo replied, "Alright, I''ll go study."


    He picked up his books, pretending to study, and drove off.


    When Mia returned in the afternoon, her entire aura had changed. She used to be lively and adorable,


    but with a new hairstyle, she seemed gentle and charming.


    Her French bangs made her look more mature and alluring. She had also groomed her eyebrows.


    Mia was super stoked about her transformation, and she showed it off to Naomi, "Hey, Naomi, what do


    you think about my new haircut?"


    The ends were slightly curled, notpletely straight. They were like natural waves, which wouldn''t


    look messy even if she didn''t style them. A light stroke through her hair, and it bounced back to its


    natural state.


    Her soft hair, paired with her face, gave her a much gentler look.


    Naomi didn''t hold back herpliments, "This hairstyle really suits you. You look like a real grown-up


    now."


    A hairstyle can change a person''s aura, but it can''t change their essence.


    Looking at her face, Leo believed in this deeply.


    Hearing that Chad had called his sister out for a study session during the day, Andre only then realized


    that these guys were about to face exams.


    He was having some doubts about his wife''s intelligence.
