The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 370 I'll Say Yes

Molly chimed in, "Even if they becsoulmates later, who'd want to get to know someone if they weren't good-

looking to start with?" "Would you connect deeply with someone unattractive?"

"Don't bring up Sebastian or insult him. He believes his spouse will be his true love; he wouldn't ditch marriage

for his career."

"Randall, your thinking is off. Letset you straight."

Randall said one thing and got a long lecture from Molly.

"Molly, | was wrong. Please stop," Randall said, feeling defeated.

Vera, who had been watching, finally spoke up, "Molly, you're so worked up. | almost thought you wanted to

marry Sebastian yourself."

Molly replied, "I'm just mad."

Vera couldn't take it anymore and said, "Poor Randall. He just mentioned that if Sebastian married a high-ranking

official's daughter, he'd have protection, and you went off. It's not like Sebastian is actually getting married." "If

you don't agree, just say so. Why worry about things that Sebastian's future wife should handle?"

"We're here to discuss, not argue. Randall's just being patient." Vera glanced at Randall. "And you, you know

what Molly doesn't want to hear, but you said it anyway."

Both Molly and Randall got scolded by Vera, who had to step in to keep the peace.

Vera finally understood the kind of advice Cindy usually gave her.

After that, Molly and Randall stopped arguing.

Molly emphasized one last time, "Anyway, Sebastian won't marry anyone else."

"If Sebastian wants to marry you, would you say yes?" Vera asked.

Molly replied, "If he really wants to marry me, I'll say yes."

Later, while eating barbecue, Molly recounted the afternoon's events, too embarrassed to look Sebastian in the

eye. "Anyway, that's what Vera asked, and | was emotional, so | said if you don't have a wife in the future, I'd

marry you."

Sebastian paused, looking at Molly with her head down, feeling a flutter in his chest. His Adam's apple bobbed

slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "If | really can't find a wife in the future, would you dare to marry me?"

Molly replied, "I just said that at noon. You're handsome, excellent, and cfrom a good family; how could you

not find a wife? Sebastian, don't take my words to heart. Later, | explained it to them for a long time."

Sebastian's eyes dimmed with disappointment. He glanced again at Molly, who was avoiding his gaze and just

eating her meal. He felt her evasion. He said nothing more.

Sebastian also understood why Randall was too embarrassed to mention it on the phone that afternoon.

"Will arguing affect your relationship?" Sebastian thought about their friendship.

Molly shook her head, feeling assured. "No, we've been friends for so many years; one argument won't break us

apart. Besides, we're family now, so we can't separate even if we wanted to. After dinner, when Sebastian went

to pay the bill, Molly placed her hand on his, finally taking her turn. "Sebastian, don't move. I'll do it!"

Molly happily ran off to pay the bill.

Randall got home, and the Olteran family had dinner together.

Vera was eating earnestly at the table.

Cindy asked Randall where he'd been that afternoon, and he casually replied, "I went out to play video games."

Cindy scolded him a bit but then stopped. She handed Vera an egg. "Vera, this is for you."

Vera replied, "Thanks, Cindy."

After finishing, she took her bowl to get sporridge.

Cindy got up to help, but Vera shook her head. "Cindy, don't worry about me. | won't starve myself."

She scooped a bowl, sat down, and kept eating.

Vincent joked, "Patrick will be relieved to see Vera eating so well at home."

Cindy noticed Vera's good appetite and said, "If Vera eats well, the baby will be born healthy and chubby."

As they talked, Vera's bowl! of porridge was empty again.

Shawn asked with concern, "Do you want more? Should | ask the servant to get you another bowl?"

Vera shook her head. "No, I'm full. The baby should have enough nutrition too."

She got up from her chair. "I'm going for a walk outside."

Cindy noticed something different about Vera after her nap.

Randall also noticed and asked, "Mom, what's up with her?"

Cindy was puzzled. "I don't know either."

Shawn speculated, "Could it be that she was upset from our argument this afternoon and got stimulated?" After

dinner, Vera walked to the yard and circled the lawn.

When she got tired, she sat on a bench, rubbing her belly, and said with a smile, "Baby, kickagain."

The baby didn't move.

Vera continued, "You were kicking so hard at noon. | ate so much for you and walked several laps. Don't go on

strike. Get up and kick me." Her belly remained still.

Vera remembered what she had said at noon and repeated it, "Baby."

Her belly was kicked.

She opened her mouth in surprise. "When Patrick comes back, I'll tell him you can move."

Her belly was still again.

Vera called, "Baby?"

No response.

"Baby?"

Still no response.

"Patrick?"

"Vera?"

Her belly didn't move at all.

Vera rubbed her belly, lying on the chair, looking at the misty blue sky. "You're too small. | can't control you.

When you're born, if you don't listen to me, I'll spank you. But then again, | can't bear to spank you." "Baby,

when Patrick comes back, you givea couple of kicks. Not real kicks. | mean just slike you did at noon.

Otherwise, | won't be able to surprise him. Without a surprise, Patrick will scold me." Vera was talking to herself.

After dinner, Randall passed by the window on his way to his bedroom and saw Vera sitting alone in the yard.

Coincidentally, Cindy was holding a glass of juice, ready to take it to Vera. Randall intercepted her and took the

juice from her hand, "I'll go."

Cindy handed it to Randall. "Alright, you go. I'll head back to the bedroom."

Randall walked over and handed the juice to Vera. "Cindy said to drink this to replenish your vitamins."

Vera took the glass and thanked him.

Then she sipped through the straw and said, "Randall, did Patrick give you a task this afternoon?" Randall

replied, "May | ask, do you know Patrick too well, or are you too familiar with my lies?"

Vera had been eating the whole tin the dining room; how did she hear his conversation with Cindy? Vera

said, "I ate with my mouth, not my ears."
