Chapter 37
Mia said, “The house rule of the Cedillo family is to respect the elders. Doesn’t that mean the older generation and older people, right? Now that I’m married to Andre, my parents and Hansen are all elders. Even though my parents are younger than you, they are on the same level as Hansen. So you should call my parents elders. Last time when my parents visited, you insulted them. Isn’t that against the house rules of the Cedillo family? Since you value house rules so much, you should enforce this rule, right?”
Mia looked at Hansen with a gloomy face, and she asked, “Am I right?”
She deliberately embarrassed Hansen.
Everyone in the family knew that Hansen wanted to downplay the matter, but only Mia refused to let it go. She insisted that Naomi apologize!
Hansen shouted, “All of you get out!”
Mia had broken with Hansen, and she didn’t care about anything now. She asked again, “Was I wrong?”
“Get out!”
Mia clenched her fists, and as she was about to ask for the third time, the housekeeper signaled the serv ants, and someone immediately led Mia out of the dining room.
After Mia was taken out, the atmosphere in the dining room became extremely tense. Naomi was even careful with her breathing.
In the quiet dining room, Andre rhythmically tapped his fingers on the table.
Everyone was watching him.
Bruce reminded, “Andre, you should go check on Mia.”
Andre glanced at the entrance of the dining room, then turned his gaze back to the people at the table. He smiled and said, “Bullying my wife is the same as bullying me.”
His sharp look made Naomi dare not look at him.
Andre asked, “Am I right?”
Naomi remained silent.
Andre asked again, “You were pretty talkative when you were lecturing my wife just now. Why are you mute now when it’s my turn?”
Naomi looked up and said, “Andre, she deserved it.”
Andre looked at Hansen and asked, “Don’t my in-laws deserve an apology from the mayor’s wife?”
Hansen reminded, “Andre, she is your sister-in-law!”

Andre snorted with a sarcastic smile, “Haha, that’s funny. You forgot, Mia is my wife. You want me to offend my wife for my sister-in-law, do you think I’m that pathetic?”
“You…”
Andre stood up from the table, dusted off his clothes, and said to Naomi, “The house rule of the Cedillo family is to respect the elders. Don’t forget, as a member of the Cedillo family, you should obey the house rules, unless, you’re not a member of this family.”
His devilish smile made Naomi shudder.
Andre left the dining room with big strides. When he went upstairs to find Mia, he found that she was not in the room.
He stopped a help and asked coldly, “Where did Ms. Mia go?”
“Ms. Mia ran out crying just now. We don’t know where she went.”
Andre went outside, he looked around but couldn’t find Mia.
“She must have gone somewhere to cry again.”
After looking around, Andre decided not to look for Mia anymore. She would come back when she was done crying..
He took out his phone and called his assistant, “Help me buy a house.”
“But sir, don’t you already own Maplewood Estates?” the assistant asked.
Andre replied, “Do I need to explain to you why I want to buy a house?”
