The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride

Upstairs, Vera took out her custom-made dress and asked while changing, "Are you facing any troubles?"

Molly, sitting on a stool nearby, curiously asked, "Vera, is it awkward sleeping with Patrick?"

Vera glanced back at Molly. "What's awkward about it? It's normal for a couple to sleep together." Molly said, "I feel like I'm not normal."

Downstairs, Theodore was crying without tears. When Randall said, "A boy crying without tears is never truly crying," Theodore's tears immediately flowed from the corners of his eyes. Patrick, as his father, found Theodore adorable.

Patrick got up, holding Theodore and walking around, patting his back and soothing him. "Theodore, tell me, why do you, a boy,cry so much? Even girls don't cry as much as you do." Theodore's cries echoed in Patrick's ears.

After a while, Vera came downstairs in her dress.

Theodore, who had just been comforted, got so excited upon seeing Vera that he almost wanted to grow wings and fly into her arms.

Vera ignored Theodore and instead asked Patrick how her dress looked.

Theodore squirmed, and Patrick, afraid he might fall, held him with one big hand on his back and the other gently pressing his head. "It looks good," Patrick wasn't good at compliments and could only say this.

The family was chatting, consistently overlooking Theodore,, which made him so anxious that his face scrunched up, his mouth opened wide to cry, leaving the whole living room in a stunned silence. The family all looked at the heartbroken Theodore, whose temper was just like Shawn's, turning red with anger.

This time, no matter how Patrick tried to comfort him, it didn't work; the more he comforted, the harder Theodore cried. "Vera, come quickly, he wants you."

"Coming, Mommy's here." Vera walked over, took the chubby Theodore from Patrick's arms, and held him upright.

Vera leaned back slightly, using the soft tissue Susan handed her to wipe Theodore's tears and drool.

Theodore collapsed into Vera's arms, his loud sobs gradually softening to quiet whimpers.

Vera asked Theodore, "Aren't you close with your dad? You don't even want me when you bathe, so why can't you leave me now?"

Cindy said, "Patrick has only been taking care of the child for a few days. When Randall was little, he clung to Vincent for just two hours. Any longer, and he would cry like the sky was falling." Molly asked, "Cindy, what about me?"

Cindy replied directly, "You were the one everyone fought to hold."

Before Molly, the family was all boys. Even after Molly was born, the family was still mostly boys.

Cindy loved her daughter, Vincent loved his sister, and Patrick would hold Molly as soon as he got home from school.

Susan said sympathetically, "Then Randall must have been so pitiful."

Cindy pointed at Randall and said, "If you knew what he did, you wouldn't think he was pitiful; you'd be disgusted." Susan questioned, "What?"

Vera also doubled, "Hmm?"

Molly looked at Randall, surprised. "Oh?"

The three of them looked at Randall on the sofa, then at Cindy, urging, "Cindy, tell us, what did he do?"

"Mom, you can't say it. If you do, I won't get married in the future," Randall instantly stood up from the sofa, threatening. Cindy replied, "With your demeanor, who would marry you?"

Then, the whole family's eyes fell on Susan, who blushed.

The crying Theodore thought the family was talking to him, so he stopped crying. Occasionally, he made sounds, joining in.

Vera was immensely curious about what Randall did when he was younger. Unable to get any information from Cindy, her gaze shifted to Patrick. "Honey."

Patrick's eyes showed affection, and he smiled faintly.

Molly had an easier target. She immediately linked arms with Shawn. "Dad, are you tired?"

Shawn, who was very "principled," said, "Did you finish the 100 sit-ups?"

In the evening, Sebastian came home and changed his shoes. He had some candy in his hand, which he bought from an elderly person selling it on the roadside. "Molly, are you awake?" Sebastian asked while changing his shoes.

Ellie said, "She already left."

Sebastian was surprised. "Where did she go again?"

"The Olteran Manor. She said she's getting married soon and wants to spend more time with the Olteran family," Ellie looked at the candy in Sebastian's hand, "She doesn't dare eat sweets, and when Molly has a toothache, you'll be the one feeling sorry."

Knowing Molly had gone back, Sebastian thought of last night and responded with mixed feelings. He then handed the candy to Ellie. "Mom, you eat it then."

"I don't want it. If I want candy, your dad will get it for me," Ellie rarely showed a coquettish side and turned to ask Timothy to buy her candy.

Sebastian said, "What's there to be jealous of with Molly? Dad has a meeting tonight, and the notice has been sent out. He probably won't be back until late. Just eat it."

Ellie then took the candy, split it in half, and gave a few pieces to Zoey.

Molly's departure made Sebastian feel a bit sour. When he returned to the bedroom, he saw Molly's skincare products filling the once-empty vanity. Among them, the serum he bought for her was at the front, now adorned with a bow and a note underneath.noveldrama

Sebastian walked over and picked up the note: "Thank you for the serum, Sebastian. Molly loves you lots."

She even drew a smiley face at the end.

Those few words instantly dispelled the sourness in Sebastian's heart.

"She can't do much else, but she sure knows how to sweet-talk," Sebastian commented.

When Sebastian went to the bathroom to shower, he noticed a big change. His men's face wash and razor were now piled in a small corner, while the shelf where he used to put his things was filled with Molly's various oddities. "She hasn't even moved in yet, but her stuff is already taking over," Sebastian was in a good mood.

Molly's wedding was scheduled for the end of March. During this time, the Chase family and the Olteran family were sending out invitations, informing friends and relatives of the happy event.

Patrick didn't host a grand banquet inviting celebrities from all walks of life like he did for Theodore's party. Because Molly's wedding was a big event, he didn't want to overshadow the Chase family. Therefore, Patrick only invited a few close friends.

Vera took several days off and immediately returned to school to catch up on her studies. Fortunately, with Molly back home, there was someone to take care of Theodore!
