The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 296 Noah Unaware of Vera's Marriage

Noah: [Video call?]

Vera glanced around her surroundings and thought for a moment before refusing: [I'm out; it's inconvenient.]

Noah: [You liar. It's ten at night in Donnicia, and it's cold. Someone like you who hates the cold would never want

to go out.]

Vera didn't respond to him.

Noah: [Are you in a relationship?]

Vera: [No!]

After saying that, Vera's heart started to race. She typed in the chat box: [I'm married.]

But before she could send it, Noah's message cthrough.

Noah: [That's great. If you were in a relationship, I'd cback immediately.]

Vera quickly deleted the message she was about to send.

She held her phone close to her chest.

Vera didn't reply to Noah for a while, and Noah sent another message.

Noah: [Vera, is everything okay at home? Why do | feel like Dad, Mom, and you are all acting strange?]

Vera looked at the chat box and thought, 'Sure. I'm married and haven't told you yet. Do you think that's

normal?"

Vera had originally planned to move out with Patrick after getting married. He would live his carefree life, and

she would return to her single life. Living in the Linister family home, she and Patrick would not interfere with

each other; they would be a couple by nonly.

However, fantasies were controllable, while reality was unpredictable.

When Vera first got married, she never imagined she would fall in love with Patrick. She, an outsider, had

beca part of the Olteran family.

If things had gone in the normal order-dating first, then marriage she would have definitely told Noah about the

wedding.

But her sequence was all messed up. Marriage, arguments, dating, falling in love-it was all too complicated.

She hadn't told Noah initially because she was worried he would cback and oppose the marriage, fighting a

losing battle. As a result, she kept it a secret for so long that she didn't know how to bring it up now.

Noah was about to start college abroad, and his grades were excellent. Warren and Brianna didn't want him to

give up his overseas studies. At this critical moment, telling him she was married would definitely make him

cback. If he knew she was forced into the marriage, he would definitely give up his overseas studies and

stay in Zandonick with the family.

After a while, Patrick cback. Vera quickly replied: [I'm going to sleep, goodnight.]

After saying that, Vera put her phone on the nightstand and wrapped herself in the blanket, watching Patrick as

he approached.

Patrick walked in, sat on the edge of the bed, and lifted the blanket, looking at her flushed face. "What's wrong?

Why is your face so unusually red?"

Vera clutched the blanket tightly around her. "It's too hot in here; I'm flushed from the heat."

Patrick sat on the edge of the bed, lifted the blanket, and got into bed beside Vera. Vera rolled over in the

blanket, lying in the spot where Patrick usually slept.

Patrick lay in the spot where she usually slept.

The phone on the nightstand rang.

Since they had just switched places, Patrick was the closest to the phone.

Patrick casually picked up her phone, and Vera immediately sprang up from the blanket, reaching out to grab the

phone.

Patrick had only been gone for a while, but he felt like Vera was hiding something from him.

As Vera tried to grab her phone back, Patrick extended his long arm, keeping it out of her reach. "Honey, what

are you doing?"

Patrick wrapped one arm around Vera's waist, pulling her onto his chest. With the other hand, he held the phone

high, out of her reach.

The phone in the bedroom rang for a while before stopping on its own.

Vera lay on Patrick's chest, pouting and too angry to talk to him.

"Vera, are you up to something behind my back again? Are you afraid to letknow?" Patrick asked.

In a villa abroad, Noah sat quietly by the window. Outside, towering sycamore trees surrounded him. On the

table were snacks and specialties that Warren and Brianna had brought him last time. Noah looked at the

unanswered number on his phone, pressing the phone to his lips, frowning.

Sof his classmates had said that the Olteran Group and the Linister family had an arranged marriage, and

even asked him, "Noah, is your sister's husband the business tycoon Patrick?"

Noah immediately denied it, "No way. My sister isn't married; she doesn't even have a boyfriend. A woman like

her will never get married in this lifetime."

His classmates started discussing again, suggesting it might be another Linister family.

Noah also thought it was another Linister family. But the information he found online made him uneasy. Could

there be two Linister families in Zandonick?

Noah thought about calling Warren and Brianna, but it seemed too trivial. If Vera were married, she would

definitely tell him. Why make a fuss over sonline rumors and call his parents to verify?

Besides, Noah knew Vera well. She

was average-looking and had an

Would a business tycoon really fall for her?

In Zandonick, a certain "blind" tycoon began to tease Vera in his arms.

"Honey, if you're going to hug me, why kissat the stime?"

Vera couldn't push Patrick away. Her face and neck were covered with Patrick's warm kisses.

Before long, Patrick's body was pressing down on Vera's, loving her beyond words.

Vera was like Patrick's toy doll. He held her possessively, making sure she was filled with his scent and marked

by him.

Vera wanted to know more than anyone why Patrick loved her so much, especially late at night.

She only had a few days left before school started. There weren't many days left to sleep in at home.

Whenever they played "games" late into the night, she would definitely sleep in the next morning.

When she woke up for lunch, she found the dining table filled with nourishing foods. "Tom, what's all this about?"

Tom appeared and said, "Early this

morning, Mr. Patrick Olteran om

Vera was speechless for a moment. She hadn't expected Patrick to remember such a small thing from the night

before.

A look of both helplessness and happiness appeared on her face.

Molly had been missing Sebastian these past few days and wanted to visit him, but Shawn wouldn't let her.

Shawn said, "Molly, the police station

is Sebastian's workplace, not his

home. Although Sebastian spoils you

and often takes you out, it's best not

to go there frequently. It's a om

workplace, and is od §0 there, it gets

nixed » and unclear." "If someone in

his team is unhappy with him and

complains to the higher-ups, saying

he often brings family members to

work, there will be an investigation,

and Sebastian won't escape having

to write a report and face

punishment." Of course, aside from

these high-sounding reasons, Shawn

also didn't want Molly and Sebastian

from the Chase family to be together

all the time. The content is on

Although they weren't related by blood, they were always holding hands, shopping, eating, and watching movies

together, which was inappropriate.
