Chapter 1282
Andre stumbled into a whole new world with his son, and from that point on, weekends transformed into a whirlwind of activities. Post-work hours were spent honing his son's skateboarding skills, sometimes hitting the pool, and weekends were reserved for rock climbing adventures.
Even though Andre occasionally grumbled, he approached every moment with his son with genuine care and attentiveness. Whenever Henry seemed about to take a tumble, there was Andre, hand ready to guide him upward, always there to catch him.
One particular time, Henry soared through the air, and Andre scooped him up mid-flight, gently unwrapping the harness he had meticulously secured due to his son's small size.
Henry, much like his mom, had a knack for charming others. He wrapped his arms around his dad's face and planted two sweet kisses before snuggling peacefully in his arms, his fussing forgotten.
After their eventful day, Henry dozed off on the ride home.
They wrapped up the day with dinner at the Irvin family's place. Meanwhile, Cooper was at home, knee-deep in his thesis, which had kept him from seeing his 'little buddy' lately.
At the Irvin family's, the tuckered-out Henry slept soundly, and Mia decided not to wake him. He was at that age where reasoning was futile and coaxing was tough. Back when he was a baby, a bit of cuddling did the trick, but now, letting him sleep, dirt and all, was better than dealing with another crying episode. Mia braced herself for the inevitable midnight call.
Yet, in the wee hours...
Henry awoke, cradled by his uncle Cooper, who whispered, "Hey buddy, wanna keep Uncle company while he works on his homework?"
The two were perfectly in sync with their night owl schedules.
During a group meeting, one of Cooper's colleagues chimed in, "Cooper, could you bring your adorable nephew to the meeting? I bet our productivity would skyrocket with such cuteness around."
With Henry in his arms, Cooper instantly won over a crowd of fans. "He's definitely the cutest little guy."
"On the agenda, Ron will handle the market research section..."
After the meeting, it was Uncle Cooper who tackled the task of cleaning up a sticky and sleepy Henry.
The next morning, Mia saw the cuddling duo and decided not to disturb them. She and her husband headed out to see the Calder family off.
Standing beside her husband, Mia exuded a calm and composed energy. One was youthful and vibrant, the other elegantly poised, both clad in matching coats, standing tall with an extraordinary presence-they were the perfect pair.
Passersby couldn't help but steal glances at the striking couple.
Out in public, Andre kept a gentle hold on his wife, subtly marking his territory and ensuring any lingering gazes quickly averted.
"So, when does the company plan on taking a break?" Andre asked.
Mr. Calder replied with a nod, "Same as every year, right in line with the Cedillo Group's holiday schedule-not a day sooner or later."
Andre then turned to his enthusiastic fan, "Got any holiday plans this year?"
The question caught Mr. Calder by surprise. "Pretty much the usual, nothing big on the agenda."
Andre proposed, "Well, we're planning to travel this holiday season. If you're free, why don't our families take a vacation together?"noveldrama
Mia, delighted, tilted her head and playfully swung her husband's hand, "Honey, did I hear that right? Are we going on a trip again?"
Andre, gazing at his wife with an affectionate grin, teased, "Mia doesn't want to go? Guess we'll cancel then."
