The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 293 This Person Can't Speak

Shawn quickly grabbed his phone and noticed that Randall no longer exuded the charm of a handsman in

the photo. Even a monkey looked better than him, with a face full of wrinkles and squinty eyes. Shawn nodded in

satisfaction. "Molly is really good to me. I'll use this picture as an emoji from now on."

Vera was speechless for a moment. Using an ugly photo of his grandson as an emoji was something most people

wouldn't do.

Vera spoke up, "Shawn, sometimes when we're not respectful, you should reflect on whether you have any

issues yourself." Shawn asked, "Do you think I'm not good to you?"

Vera didn't answer the question, letting Shawn figure it out himself.

Cindy hadn't returned from buying corn, but a visitor arrived at the hospital room.

There was a knock on the door, and Vera got up to see who it was. "Hello, who are you looking for?"

The visitor looked to be about Shawn's age, an elderly man.

The old man smiled at Vera, creating a kind appearance, but his up-and-down gaze made Vera uncomfortable.

Polite people don't scrutinize others the first tthey meet. Moreover, his gaze was something Vera didn't like.

Shawn, growing impatient, asked, "Who is it?"

Vera turned back to the room. "I don't know him, and I've never seen him before. This old man seems to be

mute."

Dennis Turner was immediately annoyed by the girl in front of him.

Calling him mute just because he didn't answer her question?

What a sharp tongue!

Dennis heard Shawn's voice and called out with a smile, "Shawn, it's me, Dennis Turner."

Vera immediately knew it was someone Shawn knew and stepped aside to let Dennis into the room.

Shawn sat up in bed and looked at the visitor. "Why are you here?" Shawn, who had been joking with Vera

earlier, immediately put on a serious demeanor.

Dennis put down the gifts and sat by Shawn's bed, kindly patting the blanket. "You are sick and in the hospital;

how could | not cto see you?"

Shawn also becpolite with a fake smile. "That's very kind of you. Your effort to call this way is truly

appreciated."

Vera, sensing the situation, went to the cabinet, picked up a cup, and poured swarm water for Dennis.

"There's no coffee in the hospital room, so you'll have to make do with swater." Dennis took the cup from

Vera and looked at her face for a while. "May | ask your name?"

The political and business circles of Zandonick knew that the Olteran family's daughter had been found, but the

Olteran family didn't seem to plan on holding a press conference to reveal her identity. So, no one knew what

Molly looked like. Could it be her?

Shawn then remembered to introduce, "This is Vera Linister, Patrick's wife."

After the introduction, Dennis's smile grew even bigger as he looked at Vera. "So, you're Mrs. Olteran."

She was the one who had caused Glen trouble three times!

So, it was her.

Vera didn't look special, her face still like a child's, but Dennis didn't dare underestimate her. He had already

been annoyed by her at the door.

Shawn also introduced Dennis to Vera. "Vera, this is my old colleague from the government, Dennis Turner. He's

retired now and teaches at a university."

Dennis, appearing friendly, addressed the earlier incident, "You have quite a sharp tongue, young lady. Just

because | didn't answer right away, you calledmute?"

Vera politely greeted him and apologized for her earlier words, "Dennis, I'm sorry for what | said earlier. | spoke

without thinking."

Shawn also defended Vera. "Dennis is getting old; it's normal if he didn't hear you clearly. Dennis and | are very

close. He won't get upset over such a small thing, so don't blyourself."

Shawn's words put Dennis in a difficult position. If he argued, it would seem petty; if he didn't, he'd have to

swallow his pride.

Then he said, "Shawn is right. We old folks don't get angry with kids."

Feeling awkward, Vera went to wash sfruit.

Soon, Cindy returned with the corn.

As soon as she entered, she saw Dennis sitting by Shawn's bed and greeted him with a smile, "Dennis, when did

you get here?" Dennis turned to look at Cindy and asked, "You must be Vincent's wife, Cindy?"

Cindy nodded. "Dennis, you have a great memory. You still remember me."

Dennis said, "You're Vincent's wife; how could | not remember?"

Vera cout of the bathroom with a plate of fruit for them to eat.

Cindy said to Vera, "Vera, Tom calledearlier and said he'd be bringing food for Shawn soon. Could you go out

and meet him?"

Vera pouted, not understanding what was going on, but still left the ward without return.

She went to the hospital entrance and sat on the steps, watching people cand go.

Inside the room, the three seemed to be having a pleasant conversation.

Dennis mentioned, "Molly has been found, hasn't she? Why isn't she here taking care of Shawn?"

Cindy explained, "The ward is small, and with everyone here, there's no room to move. Vera and | are taking care

of things here. Molly and Randall will canother day."

Dennis said, "Seems like | arrived at

the wrong moment and missed

catching a glimpse of Molly.. {tsbeen

fifteen yap wohde How she's

ding how. Your family has been

quite guarded about her, shielding

her from the media. But it's good that

she's finally been found. Now, Shawn

can enjoy family life." The content is

Shawn smiled. "They're all troubleskids; let's not talk about them."

Vera waited at the entrance for over half an hour, her feet getting cold.

Later, Tom, who was bringing food, went upstairs, and Shawn asked, "Didn't you see Vera?"

Tom remembered something and shook his head, "No, maybe we missed each other."

Shawn was about to eat, and Dennis knew he shouldn't stay longer. He found an excuse and got up to leave.

"Shawn, take care of yourself."

Shawn said, "Sure, cby the house when I'm discharged."

After Dennis left, Shawn and Cindy immediately stopped smiling.

Cindy looked at Tom and asked, "Did you really not see Vera earlier?"

Tom replied, "I did."

Recalling earlier, Tom had seen Vera

when he got out of the car and was

about to enter the Rael siibd

Although Tom didn't understand, he did as she asked.

When he arrived at the room, he realized there was a visitor.

Cindy, understanding everything, laughed and looked at Shawn, who was also in a good mood. "Shawn, Vera is a

smart kid." Her earlier words had a hidden meaning that Vera understood.

If it were someone else, they would

have only understood the literal

meaning but Vera RAW tdaVdid the

STUN! Shawn nodded in

agreement. "Vera is great in every

way, except she likes to tease me."
