The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 412 Speculation

Xavier witnessed this scene through his drunken haze: the Olteran family was living their seemingly sinless lives

while Caleb's fate unfolded tragically. Fueled by a mix of alcohol and rage, Xavier stormed into the Olteran

family's private dining room, pushing past their guests. He launched into a tirade of insults, accusations, and

curses, even resorting to physical violence.

Vincent stepped in to block him and, with a single forceful shove, sent Xavier crashing to the ground, where he

collided with a stack of dishes.

His drunken outburst alarmed the restaurant manager, the police, and even his business partners.

With such an incident, how could his partners continue to work with Xavier?

So, three days later, a deal that Xavier was about to close suddenly fell through.

Xavier mistakenly thought it was the Olteran family deliberately messing with him. He drove drunk toward the

Olteran Group and got into a car accident, losing his life.

This happened sixteen years ago.

At the request of the family, the police investigated whether his death was due to foul play or alcoholism.

Patrick said, "The last person he argued with was Vincent, and Vincent was also taken in for questioning."

The final test showed that Xavier's blood alcohol level was too high, leading to the accident. Moreover, his car

had not been tampered with.

This completely shocked Vera.

Her mouth opened wide, and she asked, "Why is our family so unlucky?"

After a moment, Vera's face lit up with realization. Connecting Dennis" earlier statements, she finally understood

why Dennis had emphasized the significance of "the last person he saw" and "the last person he argued with."

"So Dennis suspects that Shawn and Vincent killed Caleb and Xavier?"

Patrick was reluctant to admit it, but he said, "That's my guess; it doesn't represent his thoughts."

Because he had only deduced this after getting the information from lan.

Vera sat quietly, remaining silent for a long time.

As Patrick held Vera, trying to lull her to sleep, Vera suddenly spoke, "Honey, could Dennis be related to the

kidnapping case sixteen years ago?"

Patrick remained silent.

Vera excitedly sat up from the bed, and before Patrick could catch her, she had already left the bed. "Seriously,

honey, you need to look into this, whether your guess is right or not. Given his hatred towards us, which even led

the Wallace family to kill Cindy on his behalf, | think he might be connected to the kidnapping."

Patrick watched as Vera's restlessness grew. "Can you please settle down?"

Vera continued, "Also, Molly said she remembers a leaf tattoo."

Patrick patted the bed beside him. "Lie down and sleep."

Vera pushed against Patrick's chest with her small hands, acting spoiled, "Honey, | think what I'm saying makes

sense. You should check it out."

Patrick was helpless. "It's too late, we'll check tomorrow. You need to sleep first."

"| can't sleep." Vera felt hungry and pursed her lips.

Patrick was troubled; Vera was hard to soothe again. He stretched out his arms, saying softly, "Chere, lie in

my arms."

Vera pouted, rubbed her stomach, and didn't look at Patrick. She pouted. "I'm hungry."

With a resigned sigh, Patrick threw off the covers, changed into his pajamas, and picked Vera up from the bed.

He helped her slip on her slippers. "Let's go." "What are we doing?" Vera asked Patrick deliberately.

Patrick's face softened with affection. His large hand rested on Vera's belly, where their little one kicked, as if in

agreement with the plan.

He smiled and said, "My wife is hungry, it's tto feed her."

Molly returned to the Chase Mansion after staying at the Olteran Mansion for a while.

Knowing she was home, Sebastian also took stto cback for a night.

He had been working so hard lately that he had lost weight. Molly asked him, "Sebastian, why are you in such a

hurry with your cases?"

Sebastian looked at her, hiding his emotions. "I have my reasons."

Molly, believing Sebastian's claim that she could give a decent massage, started rubbing his back. She had

learned from his comment at the hospital and now was gently working on his neck and back. Sebastian

whispered, "Is your work tiring?"

Molly nodded, "Yes, it is."

Sebastian reached behind, grabbed Molly's hand on his shoulder, and pulled her to his side. Then he started

massaging her. "The learning phase is always tiring, but it gets easier once you're familiar." Molly wore a

necklace Sebastian bought, a watch he gifted, and clothes he paid for.

Seeing her covered in things related to him, Sebastian felt a bit happier.

At night, Ellie, Timothy, Zoey, and Max were all asleep while Molly and Sebastian sat in the living room.

Sebastian said, "You haven't bought any new clothes this month. | haven't had the tto shop with you." "It's

okay, Sebastian. | still have plenty of clothes in my closet. | can wait for you to be free." Sebastian's smile was

evident. "You only wantto go with you?"

Molly nodded firmly. "Only you."

Sebastian casually asked, "Molly, if you have a boyfriend in the future, will you still needto accompany you?"

Molly bit her lip, nervously clutching the hem of her nightgown.

Ellie cdownstairs and saw Molly and Sebastian still awake in the living room.

Sebastian was massaging Molly?

Ellie asked, "Molly, why are you letting Sebastian massage you again?"

Molly suddenly snapped back to reality, looking at the hands on her shoulders. "Wait, wasn't | the one massaging

you?"

Sebastian gently took her hand and guided her to sit beside him, making it clear he was there to pamper her.

Sebastian looked at Molly, smiling gently. "Molly's been working so hard lately; | can't help but feel concerned."

Molly had previously accepted Sebastian's affection without hesitation, but hearing his words now made her

cheeks flush with a warmth she didn't quite understand.

At night, the main light in the living room was off, leaving only the wall lamp.

The living room was dim, and Ellie didn't catch the deep emotion in Sebastian's eyes or the shyness on Molly's

face.

Ellie only said, "Molly, are you tired? I'll take you for a spa this week to relax."

Molly replied, "I want to go with Sebastian."

Ellie playfully tapped Molly's forehead, "You've got Sebastian on the brain all the time. Can't you live without

him?"

Molly glanced at Sebastian, who was smiling warmly at her, and said, "I can't live without Sebastian. Anyway, |

won't marry anyone else or leave Sebastian in this lifetime."
