Chapter 320 Vera Knows How to Seduce

Ellie chuckled and looked at Timothy, saying, "I was wondering why | heard a familiar voice today. | thought | was

hallucinating, but it turned out Vera was calling me."

Molly worriedly said, "Mom, you admit you went to the hospital today. What's going on with you? The more you

hide it from me, the more | worry. | can't eat or sleep well, nor can | focus in class."

Ellie pinched Molly's cheek. "Then why are you still gaining weight?"

"Mom," Molly called her in a complained tone.

Ellie stopped teasing Molly and told the truth this time. "I'm fine, just sindicators were a bit high. Taking

smedicine will bring them down. The doctor said it's not a big deal. | also saw a patient at the hospital

today. | got a call from the company when | was leaving, so | was in a hurry and didn't see Vera."

After speaking, Timothy took out the medical check-up results for him and Ellie and showed them to Molly. "See,

we are really fine." Although Molly couldn't understand the results, she still sat on the couch and read them word

by word with her phone in hand.

An arrow would be marked next to any abnormal data. If she needed help understanding an indicator, she would

look it up online. Molly had never been so serious; she had to check every anomaly thoroughly.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ellie called Molly to go upstairs and rest.

Molly said, "You go to sleep first. I'll check Dad's results too."

As Timothy and Ellie went upstairs, Timothy asked, "What tis your class tomorrow? Sebastian isn't home, so

we will take you."

Molly looked up and said, "Class starts at 8 AM. How about we go out for milk in the morning?"

"Alright, finish checking and go to sleep."

Timothy and Ellie looked at Molly, who was serious, and felt warmth in their hearts. They reminded Molly once

more before going upstairs.

Molly stayed in the living room with her phone until 11 PM. Only after checking everything did she feel at ease.

That night, she sent a message to Sebastian, briefly summarizing Timothy and Ellie's health conditions.

Sebastian called her directly, and they chatted on the phone.

When Vera got home, Patrick was sitting on the couch, making her a drink. She snuggled into Patrick's arms, held

his face with both hands, looked at his handsface, and puckered her lips to kiss him several times. Patrick's

expression changed.

Vera noticed it, too.

After teasing him, she tried to run away. But Patrick's arm wrapped around her waist, pulling her back into his

embrace. Patrick looked down at Vera in his arms. "Where do you think you're going?" With that, he held the

back of her head and kissed her deeply.

Ten minutes later, the sound of running water cfrom the bathroom.

Vera held her water cup, nervously drinking.

Soon, Patrick cout with a towel wrapped around his waist.

Patrick was drying his hair, and Vera looked at his muscles.

She smacked her lips, admiring Patrick's body.

Patrick sat on the couch, and Vera immediately went over to serve him water. "Honey, you can't blme for

earlier. You have no self-control, getting all worked up while holding your pregnant wife." Patrick took the water

and drank it in one gulp. "Who was the one sitting in my lap, teasingfirst?"

Vera said, "Well, if you put it that way, it is my fault. I'm still so attractive even when pregnant."

At night, Vera didn't let Patrick hold her while sleeping. "I'm too attractive; I'm afraid you won't be able to control

yourself."

Patrick grabbed her smooth shoulder and pulled her into his arms. "Chere."

If she slept alone, she would kick the blanket, roll around, and even fall off the bed without knowing.

Patrick was used to holding her.

Vera snuggled into his arms, smiling and clinging to Patrick, hugging his waist. "Honey, | love you so much."

Her head rubbed against Patrick's chest like a kitten.

Patrick pressed her little head. "Don't move."

Vera asked, "Is it ticklish?"

"Yeah."

Vera leaned in and playfully kissed Patrick's neck again.

The next day, Vera was groggy in class.

In the morning, Patrick almost couldn't wake her up.

"Vera, get up for school."

Vera burrowed deeper into the covers, not showing her face. "Honey, letsleep for five more minutes."

After five minutes, Patrick called her again.

She continued to burrow under the covers, resisting getting up.

Eventually, Patrick pulled her by the ankles from the foot of the bed, dragging her to the edge.

He picked her up and sat her up, and Vera finally woke up.

But in the classroom, listening to the professor, she kept yawning.

Molly was also yawning.

Randall asked Vera, "Vera, what did you do last night to be so tired?"

Vera replied, "Because | couldn't keep my mouth shut." She regretted not sleeping well last night, teasing

Patrick, and ending up being dragged into the bathroom. Randall then asked Molly, "What about you?"

"Sas Vera." Molly didn't even remember what tshe fell asleep after talking to Sebastian on the phone.

In the MS Group office, Ellie was looking at sdrafts when she suddenly heard a knock on the door. Without

looking up, she said, "Cin."

The door opened, and Jonathan King walked in.

Jonathan was Ellie's nephew. After graduating from grad school, he joined Ellie's company, starting from a junior

position and working his way up to marketing manager. Jonathan asked, "Ellie, how are you? My mom asked

about you last night."

Ellie smiled and said, "I'm fine."

Jonathan sat in front of Ellie's desk and casually said, "Ellie, if you're really not feeling well, lethandle the

financial work. I'm family, more trustworthy than an outsider."

Ellie smiled calmly and said, "The current finance manager has been withfor over twenty years. To me, she's

as much family as you are. In the scompany, you're all colleagues of the srank. She's also a senior, so

let's have less suspicion."

Jonathan, being in marketing, was good at reading people. Realizing Ellie didn't want to discuss this further, he

smartly changed the topic and handed Ellie a proposal. "This is the marketing plan for the next quarter. Please

review it, and if it's okay, I'll start arranging it."

Ellie took it, and at that moment, the secretary walked in. Ellie said to Jonathan, "You can go back now. I'll have

someone get in touch with you after | review it."

Jonathan left.

Ellie closed Jonathan's proposal, leaned back in her chair, and rubbed her temples. She looked at the secretary

and asked, "What's up?"

"Mrs. Chase, Vertex Innovations Group sent an invitation, inviting you to their new store opening next week."

Ellie nodded. "Remindwhen it comes."

The secretary asked, "Vertex Innovations Group is our competitor. They have 45 stores nationwide and invite you

every time. Last time, they even placed you in a corner. Why are you going again this time?" Ellie asked back,

"Did you know the person who placedin the corner last thas been fired?"
