Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Leo pointed at his roommate, "Tony, could you please see your guest out? I've got to go pick up my girlfriend from school."

"Wait, Leo, you're dating someone? What's she do?"

Leo had been putting up with the guy for Tony's sake, giving him a chance or two. But after saying no multiple times, the guy still wouldn't back off. Leo decided to play the bad guy, "Did you not hear me? I said I'm picking her up from school. What do you think she does? With those listening skills, I wouldn't dream of signing with your company."

The agent was taken aback, standing there in shock. He was used to newbies fawning over him; no one had ever talked to him this way before.

As Leo slammed the door on his way out, the sound echoed down the hallway.

In the apartment, Tony wiped sweat from his forehead, nervously speaking to the agent. "Mr. Jerry, Leo's dream is to get his master's degree. Maybe this isn't his thing. Everyone's got their own passion, you know? I, for one, love acting. Maybe we should just let him be?"

Watching Leo storm off, the agent suddenly burst into laughter. "Oh wow, Leo's got that rugged charm. That's perfect! No need to create a persona for him-he's a walking headline. Just get him on a couple of reality shows, and the 'tough guy' label will stick."

"But Mr. Jerry, Leo's not interested in this industry."

Jerry's smile faded, his tone turning icy. "Tony, if he doesn't agree, your own deal might be at risk." "Mr. Jerry, you said you were going to sign me first! Why am I suddenly just an add-on to Leo?" Tony's voice was tinged with desperation.

The agent turned back, his attitude frosty. "If you want to sign, if you want to make it big, then help me get him on board. Right now, you're just a sidekick to him."

Before leaving, the agent, with a superior air, instructed Tony, "Send me Leo's girlfriend's details. I refuse to believe I can't sign a fresh-out-of-college guy living in this place."noveldrama

After escorting the agent to the elevator, Tony punched the wall in frustration, holding back tears of anger. He was supposed to be the one to sign first. When Jerry came by to check out his place, he ran into Leo arriving home. Since then, Jerry had shifted all his attention to Leo, even thinking about dropping Tony. Initially, the plan was for him and Leo to form a boy band, but Leo flat-out refused. Thinking maybe Leo wasn't into boy bands, Jerry even suggested, "You could debut solo."

But Leo wasn't interested at all, showing no enthusiasm whatsoever.

During the day, Leo would be in his room doing who knows what, and

At a cozy restaurant near Havenbrook University, Anya pouted, "Chad, I promised little Bella I'd stay home with her to watch 'Jungle Adventures' today."

off the hook. Do you want to get in trouble like before?"

Anya sighed, hands cradling her face, thinking about Henry missing her so much he'd cry.

Meanwhile, over at the Cedillo family home, Henry was being gently swayed in a hammock made from a bedsheet by his mom and great aunt. He giggled joyfully, not even missing his milk or his favorite cartoon. The living room was filled With his laughter.
