The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 464: Molly and Randall Inquire for Information

Patrick explained, "When | first got a call from Mr. Morales, you were right next to me, and | had no idea what

was going on."

"When | picked up Susan, | found her in pajamas with injuries on her body. | took her back to the hotel first, and

just as | was checking in, you called. There were hotel staff aroundat that time."

Patrick added, "The second tyou called, | had just brought her back from the hospital to the hotel. Susan was

there both times. Was | supposed to explain all of Susan's gossip to you over the phone in front of her and the

staff?" Vera sobbed, realizing it hadn't been the right tto explain.

"Why didn't you takewith you? Otherwise, people might get the wrong idea about your relationship.

Patrick sighed. "It was already past ten; you needed to rest. Plus, who knows what the situation was like at the

school? What if there was a scene and you ended up getting hurt?"

Vera stopped crying. "Does Susan know you have a wife?"

Patrick laughed. "Of course she knows. She was at our wedding."

Vera did not remember her.

Patrick added, "She also askedto send her regards to you and the kids."

Vera no longer felt like crying. After all, Susan even knew she was pregnant.

"Honey, if you couldn't have toldanythingover the phone, you should have at least texted me. | could have

gotten the wrong idea. You know I'm prone to jealousy and sensitive during pregnancy. | was so worried." Patrick

hugged the frightened Vera. "I didn't think it through."

"Honey, | do trust you. But I'm still a little scared," she said.

Patrick held her hand. "It's okay, twill make you believe in me."

Vera felt a bit guilty for being jealous again, which was embarrassing.

Back in the bedroom, Patrick lay beside her, and Vera finally fell asleep peacefully.

The next day at school, Molly and Randall heard a terrible rumor.

"Patrick was seen outside the women's dormitory last night, and he took a female student away!"

Molly and Randall exchanged glances. Molly grabbed the girl who was spreading the gossip and asked, "Did you

just say Patrick was at the school last night?"

"Yeah, a lot of people saw him waiting for a girl downstairs. Then he took her away with her luggage. | heard she

was a freshman."

Molly lost her appetite, and so did Randall.

Molly said, "Around 10:30 last night, | was on the phone with Vera. She said Patrick got a call and left the house."

Randall added, "Around 1 AM, Vera wokeup and madedrive her to the hotel to find Patrick."

Molly and Randall were at a loss for words.

It seemed like trouble was brewing at home!

Molly went to investigate. "Do you know who was picked up last night?"

A student at the table replied, "No, | just know she was a freshman."

Randall asked, "Do you know which dorm she lived in?"

The girl blushed. "I heard it was Building 7."

Randall and Molly stood up simultaneously and left the cafeteria.

They arrived at Building 7.

"Mia, you go inside and ask around. I'll wait outside." Randall couldn't enter the women's dormitory.

Molly nodded and went to see the resident advisor. "Hi, I'm from the Student Government Association. | heard a

girl moved out last night. Who was she, and which room was she in?" The resident advisor looked at Molly, "Her

nis Susan, she lives on the second floor in room 240."

Molly asked, "Do you know her situation?"

The resident advisor shook her head. "You'd have to ask her roommates."

Molly thanked her and went to the second floor to gather information. Since she was a senior, she easily mingled

with the freshmen.

Molly said, "I heard Patrick picked up a girl named Susan last night. Who is she, and what happened?"

One student started gossiping. "It seems like Susan is a homewrecker. She seduced a roommate's boyfriend and

got into a fight last night. Then she was kicked out of the dorm." Another student added, "I heard she called her

dad crying, and not long after, Patrick cto pick her up. Her family knows Patrick!"

Molly frowned. "What does she look like?"

"She's almost as pretty as you, Molly." Molly was happy, yet somewhat discontent.

Molly asked, "What's she like usually?"

"Her roommates say she's a homewrecker."

Molly asked again to confirm, "Are you sure she really is a homewrecker, or is someone slandering her?"

"That's what her roommates said. During the freshman party, she was always surrounded by guys."

Molly stood with her arms crossed, biting her finger, lost in thought.

Downstairs, Randall was waiting in the car. Molly got into Randall's sports car.

Randall asked, "How's it going?"

"She has a bad reputation. | heard she has several boyfriends."

Randall tapped the steering wheel, looking puzzled. "This doesn't add up. If she's two-faced, Patrick would have

seen through it."

Molly rested her arm on the car window. "I don't think Patrick wouldn't misjudge someone either. Should we tell

Vera?"

Randall thought for a moment and nodded. "We should tell Vera so she can her ask Patrick about it. | don't think

Patrick would be interested in a freshman. There must have been a misunderstanding." Molly nodded and called

Vera.

Since Vera was late into her pregnancy, shehad notified the hospital and was making regular visits. She had also

prepared the baby's blankets and clothes.

At that moment, she was folding the baby's blanket in the bedroom when Molly calledn.

She answered, put the phone on speaker, and continued folding the baby's clothes.

"Molly, what's up?"

"Vera, | have something to tell you. Stay calm and trust in Patrick's love and commitment to the family. You need

to talk to Patrick about this."

Vera placed the folded clothes aside. "Go ahead," She said casually.

Molly said, "Patrick picked up a freshman girl at Evergreen University last night."

"I know."

"What? You knew?" Molly exclaimed, puzzled. "Did you know she's a homewrecker?"

Vera finished folding a small stack of clothes, got up, put them in her closet, and explained the misunderstanding

to Molly. "What do you mean she's a homewrecker? She's Mr. Morales's daughter."
