The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 414 The Wise Vera

Vera was at home, taking it easy and focusing on her pregnancy, when Patrick unexpectedly stormed in and

dragged her to the study for a serious talking-to. Vera, puzzled, asked, "Honey, calm down. | don't want you

getting all worked up and making yourself sick."

Patrick was speechless.

With that, Vera found out that Molly had framed her. Vera, who held grudges, was indignant. "Honey, | was just

joining in for fun. It was Molly who cup with the idea and took action." During that time, Patrick and

Sebastian were wary of nothing but Molly, Vera, and Randall. Extra guards were added at the entrance to Dylan's

hospital room.

Meanwhile, Randall was also banned from visiting the patient.

Randall complained when he got back. "Why? It was you guys who wanted to pull the oxygen mask; | didn't get

involved."

Vera, holding a fruit platter, said, "Molly and | can't avoid it, and neither can you."

Molly chagain. "Sebastian is worried that if | can't do it, I'll make you do it for me."

After all, Randall was the one who most wanted to personally kill Dylan and Joe.

And he was the lowest-ranking among Molly, Vera, and Randall.

Since Joe woke up last time, Sebastian really went to interrogate him.

The result was that he only knew about the Cindy incident back then and was unaware of the kidnapping case

sixteen years ago.

Patrick didn't waste more ton Dylan and Joe. After all, if he were Dennis, he wouldn't entrust such important

matters to Dylan and Joe either. Glen, on the other hand, was a good breakthrough point.

Sebastian privately went to that coffee shop again to meet Patrick.

Patrick handed him a document. "Sebastian, have you thought about what you'll face if you want to bring him

down?"

Sebastian glanced at the document, which was the evidence he needed. "I don't care. | only care if | can go on a

road trip with Molly this summer."

Sebastian also asked Patrick, "What about you? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Patrick replied, "Vera is about to give birth."

Sebastian didn't understand Patrick's answer. He seemed to get it but also didn't.

He thought, 'Is Patrick afraid that Vera would encounter danger before giving birth, or is he worried that after

Vera gave birth, he would have to take care of the family and wouldn't have tfor others?' Regarding the

matter from back then, Sebastian objectively said, "It would be best if Molly could remember that incident."

Patrick looked into the yard. "It's also good if she can't remember."

If the memories were beautiful, they should be cherished. However, if they were painful, Patrick didn't want Molly

to dwell on them.

Her mind only needed to hold onto the good memories.

Unknowingly, Molly had been interning for a month. She was now familiar with her work and was handling it with

ease.

Ellie often called Molly to her office for lunch and chats.

They would also discuss company management.

When Ellie noticed that Molly was tired and knowing that Zoey and Max were around-always hanging out in the

park and getting a bit bored-she decided to take Molly, Zoey, and Max for a drive to nearby scenic spots on the

weekend. They enjoyed sfresh air and water fun.

Whenever Molly went somewhere, she thought about bringing Vera and the kids there for playing in the future.

Ellie said, "With kids, you can't go anywhere. Walk a few steps, and you have to carry the child, feed them, take

them to the bathroom. Vera will be so tired her arms will be sore."

Molly said, "Mom, you're overthinking it. Vera has Patrick."

Ellie smiled. "Even Patrick can't hold the baby for too long. Besides, when the baby cries, they always want their

mom."

Molly shrugged. "With so many of us, can't we handle a kid?"

A few hours after Molly's paycheck cin, it was already gone.

As she stood in the mall, her bank balance was already down to two digits before she even started shopping. She

felt a bit stunned. After a whole month of hard work, she barely managed to buy a few things and was out of

money. Sebastian had taken a break to join Molly on her shopping trip.

He laughed and asked, "You're out of money?"

Molly smiled bitterly. "Sebastian, | haven't even started supporting you, and the money is gone."

Sebastian chuckled, "I got a raise. Use my money."

"But | said I'd take care of you. I'm finding | can't even take care of myself."

Sebastian held her hand and said, "It's okay, | can take care of you."

She had bought gifts for Shawn, Timothy, Zoey, Vera, and her unborn nephew, but when it cto Sebastian,

she was out of money.

She had less than a hundred dollars left.

Sebastian saw she was a bit down and knew what was bothering her.

"Is there enough money for a movie?" Sebastian asked.

Molly nodded. "Yes."

Sebastian took her to the top-floor theater to buy tickets.

Later, Molly complained to Vera and Randall, "Money is hard to earn. I'm getting a better understanding of why

Ellie and Timothy are one going into politics and one going into business, and | understand why Shawn has

Vincent in politics and Patrick in business."

Vera asked, "What's wrong?"

Molly sighed, "Honestly, I'm just relieved I'll inherit the company. If | were an ordinary worker, I'd probably be

starving by now."

Vera lay on a chair, leisurely saying, "Money or not, there's always a way to live. A three-thousand-dollar meal is

still just a meal, and so is a thirty-dollar meal. You can't let a lack of cash get you down-being happy and healthy

is what really matters."

Molly asked, "Vera, letask you, if Patrick were a poor, would you still stay with him?"

Vera thought for a moment. "If we'd just gotten married and didn't have a foundation, I'd probably ignore him.

But now, even if Patrick were deeply in debt, I'd still stand by him and make the best of it." Molly joked, "I really

want to tell Patrick these words."

"You don't need to say it; he believes me." Vera said confidently.

Vera, who was a married woman, spent an entire afternoon instilling her views on marriage to Molly and Randall.

Cindy overheard a few words as she passed by. When she got back, she smiled and said to Shawn, "Kids these

days are so mature. | just heard Vera talking, and at first, it didn't seem right, but on second thought, it made

ssense." Shawn was curious. "What did Vera say?"

Cindy said, "Our generation always says it's better to be with someone who loves you. Vera, on the other hand,

believes you should either marry for mutual affection or not marry at all. If you can't find that person, then marry

someone who's suitable. I'm still pondering whether that's too rigid a stance."
