NovelsFreeChapter 312 Friendship
Among the four, Vera happily hugged Patrick. "Honey, did you hear what Noah called you?" Patrick couldn't hide
his joy and smiled. "Yes!"
Warren and Brianna felt relieved when they heard Noah's change in how he addressed Patrick.
After seeing Noah off and getting in the car, Patrick suggested to Warren and Brianna, "Mom, Dad, when you're
not busy, you can visit Noah abroad. When Vera is on break, I'll take her to see Noah too."
Warren and Brianna agreed while Vera was thinking about how long it would be until her break.
Since her pregnancy was still early and not showing, and it didn't affect her daily life, Vera continued attending
classes as usual.
Unlike before, when she preferred sitting on the edge, Randall now sat on one side, making her sit in the middle.
College courses were quite flexible; sstudents could take courses in advance.
Most students attended classes as scheduled by the academic office, while a few chose to take extra courses for
various reasons.
Vera knew about this policy, and since the semester had just started, she was worried that she might have to
take a break later due to childbirth. So, she decided to take advantage of her current energy and time. Vera
discussed this with Patrick at home.
The next day, Patrick appeared at the school to help Vera arrange for extra courses. Patrick asked her, "Taking
five extra courses and replacing one, can you handle it?"
Vera replied, "Honey, do you know all the courses I'm taking?"
"Yes." Patrick looked at the schedule, which was almost fully packed. Vera had taken five extra courses for the
next semester, making her week filled with 12 major classes. This semester, she had a physical education class
that she couldn't attend due to her pregnancy, so it was replaced in the system. As long as she made it up
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbefore graduation, she could still graduate.
Sspecialized courses required sequential learning, and those couldn't be arranged, but most supplementary
courses were scheduled. Looking at Vera's schedule, sclasses were even arranged in the evening.
Patrick was still a bit hesitant.
But Vera insisted on doing it this way; her personality preferred to get things done early rather than
procrastinate.
By senior year, when her classmates were interning, she would be stuck at school, making up classes.
Vera repeatedly assured Patrick that she could manage it.
Patrick felt sorry for Vera.
Molly and Randall rushed into the teacher's office. Molly said, "Patrick, I'm taking the scourses as Vera."
Randall also added, "Uncle Patrick,too."
Vera and Patrick hadn't told Molly and Randall about this.
Luckily, Molly knew Vera well and brought Randall to the teacher's office, where they indeed found Vera and
Patrick.
"What are you two doing here?" Vera was surprised.
Molly said, "You're so unfair for not telling us about taking extra courses. If you rely on yourself, no one will be
there to help you during exams."
Randall added, "If I don't join you, you probably won't even know what the assignments are."
Vera looked at Molly and Randall, touched. "You two are so loyal."
Vera had considered asking Molly and Randall to join her, but she didn't want to disrupt their plans.
In the end, Molly and Randall con their own.
Vera praised, "My judgment in making friends is spot on."
Randall, clueless, asked, "So, were you blind when you chose your husband?"
After asking, Patrick turned to the teacher in the office. "Please adjust Randall and Molly's courses to match
Vera's, and add one more course for Randall this semester." Randall protested, "Uncle Patrick, no!"
Patrick ignored his complaints.
Vera bit her lip and gave Randall a pitiful look.
She hoped her child wouldn't be as silly as Randall!
With their increased course load, they were dropped off at school in the morning and picked up in the evening.
Patrick bought an apartment nearby so the three could rest there at noon, and a housekeeper prepared lunch for
them.
Randall usually drove them to and from school, so they didn't have to walk much.
Occasionally, when the weather was nice, Molly would accompany Vera for a walk, and in the evening, Patrick
would join them.
Sometimes, when Patrick had free time, he would visit Vera at school or the apartment.
Shawn was getting bored at home. He complained several times, "I'm so bored these days. Vera leaves in the
morning and comes back at night. On weekends, she sleeps in and doesn't keepcompany." Molly hadn't
visited the Chase family in a long time. At the dinner table, Timothy and Ellie mentioned her. "Molly hasn't come
home; | miss her."
Sebastian happened to be hthat day and said, "Vera is pregnant, and Molly has been with her. She called
pregnant already? That's so fast. She's so young; the Linister family must be worried sick." Ellie was surprised.
Sebastian nodded. "It's their business, not ours. When a child comes, you can't stop it. Molly is excited about
becoming an aunt and makeslook at baby toys and clothes with her every night." Timothy asked, "Why is
her schedule so packed?"
"To accompany Vera in class." Sebastian sighed and said, "It's good to be busy; it keeps her out of trouble.
Studying is better than causing trouble."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTimothy agreed, "That makes sense."
As they were talking, Sebastian's phone rang. He looked at it, "Speak of the devil."
He answered the video call, showing the Chase family.
Molly's face appeared on the screen. "Mom, Dad, you're both home."
Ellie smiled and asked, "Molly, why haven't you chrecently?"
"I was just about to tell you, Sebastian will pickup after school this Friday, and I'll cstraight home. Don't
misstoo much; you'll seeon Friday."
Ellie noticed Molly's sweater and reminded her, "It's cold; don't take off your coat so quickly. Keep it on to avoid
catching a cold, especially since Vera is often with you."
Molly glanced at Vera beside her. "Okay, Mom, | know. My coat is in the classroom; I'll put it on when | go back.
Where's Dad?"
The phone was handed to Timothy. "Molly, you miss Dad too?"
"Of course | do. I'll see you on Friday, Dad."
Molly smiled sweetly at the camera. "Mom, Dad, wait forat home."
After talking to everyone, the call ended.
Ellie wanted to teach Molly how to take care of a pregnant woman but figured the Olteran family had it all
arranged.
"How are Vera and Patrick getting along?" Ellie asked.
