After Mia and Leo hung up the phone, they gave Molly a round of applause. Mia asked, "Molly, you're
such a smarty pants. Have you ever considered joining my husband's company after graduation? My
husband is Andre."
"Thanks, but I haven't thought about it yet " Molly said, picking up her utensils to start eating.
Leo asked, "Molly, what would you say if someone told you they were a die-hard supporter of a certain
political party?"
Molly, who was eating, replied, "I'd say sorry, we're not a match."
"I've learned something," said Mia.
As Molly was eating her steak, she looked at Mia, who was pregnant, and said, "Even if you've learned
something, you won't use it."
Mia sighed regretfully, "Ah, I got married too early. Actually, I should have let my husband pursue me
first, then agree to date him, face some difficulties during the process, and finally get married and have
kids."
Leo said, "I think my uncle, who's running the entire Cedillo Group, probably doesn't have the extra
time to chase after you and go through hardships with you."
"I'm just daydreaming." Mia said.
While they were enjoying their meal, Molly suddenly asked, "What's the name of the new movie? I'm
going with my brother."
"Correction, your brother is going with you," Leo said.

Later, Jack called Molly several times, but Molly always turned him down saying she was busy
studying. Jack still didn't give up. He told Molly, "Molly, I won't stop pursuing you."
Molly responded, "You better say that to my brother."
After hanging up the phone, Molly complained, "Has he decided to never give up on me in this
lifetime?"
Mia asked, "Should we tell Andre?"
Molly shook her head. "There's no need to bother Andre with such a trivial matter. Only big issues are
worth his attention."
Summer cicadas were chirping, and June was scorching hot.
Someone was pursuing Molly, but Molly just said, "I'm super busy!"
Because Chad was about to go on a business trip, he called Molly. Molly even skipped class to meet
him. Mia accused her of having double standards, but Molly proudly said, "That's how we, the Cedillos,
roll."
The heatwave of June was hitting hard, and summer vacation was just around the corner after exams.
Mia checked her 12 courses and was planning her review when she got home at night.
Andre came home from work and sat on the sofa, watching his wife crouched on the carpet, making
plans seriously. He loosened his tie and looked down at his wife who had been writing for half a day.
"What problem are you working on?"
Mia shook her head and answered him, "I'm making a study plan."
Andre grabbed her arms and pulled her up from the floor. Then he picked up the paper she had been
writing on for half an hour. "What does this 6 mean?"
Mia replied confidently, "I plan to get up at 6, finish washing up at 7, start studying at 8, and keep
studying until 11. From 11 to 2 is my lunch and nap time, and from 2 to 5 in the afternoon I'll continue
studying. After 5 is my prenatal education time, then dinner, and then rest."
Andre looked at her plan and thought it was okay. "Why did you shake your head just now?"
Mia frowned. “Honey, I think getting up at 6 is too early. I can’t do it. The study time from 8 to 11 is too
long, and I can’t concentrate. The nap time is too short. I’m afraid I’ll wake up at 4 in the afternoon. It’s
time for dinner before I even start studying. And you’re back before I even start studying. When you’re
back, all I want to do is be with you.”
Andre hugged his wife’s waist, glanced at her belly, and laughed while putting the study plan on the
table. “Send me your exam schedule.”
“Honey, are you going to help me make a study plan?" Mia's eyes twinkled with stars as she looked at
her husband adoringly.
Andre said, "I'll teach you how to plan."
Mia had too many courses to review. Fortunately, the three of them sat in the front row in class. They
remembered quite a few knowledge points from the textbooks. Andre found that Mia was also very
attentive in class.
This time it was much easier to tutor than last time. Mia, with her big belly, listened to her husband
categorize.
"Which subject is your weak point?"
Mia confidently said, "They're all my strengths."
Andre said, "Why don't you solve a linear algebra problem for me?" Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Mia immediately clutched her belly, pretending to be in pain. "Honey, your son is kicking my belly."
"Then let's not do it."
"He stopped kicking."
Andre chuckled, he gently pinched his wife's cheek. "You're such a tease. I don't know what to say
about you."
After class, Molly went straight to the Cedillo family. Even Hansen curiously asked Molly, "Aren't you
going to your mom's house?"
"My brother's not home, and my parents are at work. It's boring. At our house, I have Mia and Leo to
study with me."
Hansen complained, "You three together definitely won't study seriously. Andre definitely won't allow it."
Hansen went to tell Andre about it. So, the next day when Andre went to work, he took his pregnant
wife with him.
Mia moved from the bedroom at home to her husband's office to sleep. When she woke up, it was
already ten o'clock. She sat up and read a few pages of her book. "Honey, I'm hungry."
After lunch, while she was studying, she was lying on the sofa. She was supposed to be reading, but
somehow the book plopped onto her face.
Andre looked at her for a long time, speechless. His adam's apple bobbed, and he murmured to
himself, "What's the point of studying like this?"
Despite his complaints, he still turned up the room temperature a couple of degrees, took off his coat
and covered her with it, and then took the book off her face.
When Mia woke up, she was going to the bathroom every few minutes.
A whole day had passed. Andre sat next to her and asked, "What did you review today?"
Mia looked at the schedule and the books in front of her. She looked and said, "Honey, can I study
somewhere else? I get a little distracted here."
Andre purposely asked, "Being here distracts you from sleeping?"
Mia bit her lower lip, unable to say a word.
Andre didn't really want to criticize his wife. After all, pregnant women were naturally prone to fatigue,
plus she was a bit of a slacker. "You don't have to come to the office tomorrow. I have people reporting
to me all the time, so it might disturb your rest," Andre said, treading on eggshells. He added, "It could
also interfere with your studies."
Sure enough, Mia took his advice. "I'll go to the library tomorrow then. That way, I'll have to sit up and
won't be able to snooze."
The next day, Leo, shouldering the tasks given by Andre and Chad, brought two ladies to the city
library. They got there bright and early, just as the library was opening its doors. Mia found a spot with
good light and pulled out her study materials. Molly sat down, too, taking out several packs of pine nuts
and beef jerky.
All eyes were on Molly's stash.
