The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 299 Noah's Call

Vera glanced at the cunning Shawn and said, "If you're not afraid of Patrick, why do you let him push you

around? Don't think you can trickinto making Patrick angry. Patrick and | are doing great, and I'm not

listening to you, you old troublemaker." Shawn stood up excitedly, and Vera immediately stood up too. She

pointed at Shawn's foot. "Shawn, calm down. You just got out of the hospital not long ago. Don't sprain your

ankle again." With her reminder, Shawn indeed calmed down.

Shawn wanted to complain to Cindy that Vera was bullying him, but then he remembered he was the one who

tried to trick her first. He failed and got angry instead. Complaining would be embarrassing, which made Shawn

even angrier. "Move out quickly," Shawn said angrily.

Vera replied, "Getting angry out of shand starting to kickout."

At this moment, Vera's phone rang. She glanced at the caller and quietly slipped out of the living room with her

phone.

Shawn curiously watched Vera's back and murmured, "Why is Vera hiding to take a call? What's she talking

about?"

Half an hour later, Sebastian and Patrick cout of the study.

Sebastian said, "I understand everything now. I'll handle this matter, investigating the Tooker family and catching

the people behind this."

He went downstairs and saw Molly had already changed her clothes. He reached out his hand, and Molly willingly

handed hers over. She said to the family members, "I'm leaving now. Patrick, tell Vera we'll see each other when

the new semester begins."

Randall thought in the corner, ‘Why are you ignoring me?*

After sending off Molly and Sebastian, the Olteran family members returned to the living room.

Patrick asked Shawn, "Dad, where's Vera?" He had asked Vera to keep him company downstairs, but now she

was gone.

Shawn was still angry. "Patrick, weren't you in a hurry to move out? Take Vera, who madeangry with you."

Cindy smiled helplessly. Her house used to be cold and lifeless, but now it was a bit too lively.

Patrick chuckled. It seemed his Vera had annoyed Shawn again.

She really didn't play favorites; she annoyed everyone equally.

Patrick asked, "Where is she now?"

Shawn pointed to the backyard and said, "She took a call and sneaked out there. She must have made plans with

her friends and didn't wantto hear, afraid I'd tell you." Patrick smiled and walked to the backyard lawn.

Vera was sitting on a bench, shivering, and making a call. "No, Noah. Focus on your studies abroad. What are you

talking about?"

Noah's voice cthrough. "You got into Evergreen University by guessing answers on your exams. How can |

not get in? I'm smarter and more emotionally intelligent than you. If | cback to study, we might even go to

the sschool." Vera earnestly said, "Why would you cback? Mom and Dad sent you abroad to stay there.

You've been there for three years and are used to it. Coming back means adapting all over again. Even if you're

smart and emotionally intelligent, you'll be competing with countless people here. | may not be a reliable sister,

but | won't harm you."

Noah said, "I have nothing to say to you, you blockhead."

"Are you acting tough because you're far away, and | can't hit you?"

As Noah and Vera argued, Patrick walked over.

He had overheard sof their conversation and got the gist of it.

As the president of the Olteran Group, he had been married for half a year and had never met Vera's brother.

He wondered what kind of person Vera's brother was and if he would approve of him as a brother-in-law.

Patrick sat down, intending to greet him.

"Vera." Patrick hadn't finished speaking when Vera quickly hung up the call upon seeing him.

Then, she looked at Patrick cautiously, "Honey, when did you get here?"

Patrick noticed Vera's nervous grip on her phone, her fingers turning pale.

"Vera, what are you nervous about?" Patrick glanced at her hand and then at her face.

Vera replied, "I'm not nervous. | was just startled when | saw you. You didn't make a sound."

In fact, Vera's heart was pounding with nerves as she asked, "Honey, when did you get here?"

"Just a moment ago. | heard you talking to Noah and didn't want to interrupt."

Overseas, Noah looked at his phone. He was sure he hadn't misheard; someone had called "Vera," and it was a

man's voice! Noah called again.

Vera's phone rang again. She saw it was Noah and hung up immediately.

"Why aren't you answering?" Patrick asked.

Vera said, "He doesn't want to study abroad anymore. I'm mad and don't want to talk to him."

Patrick felt something was off with Vera.

Soon, Noah called again, and she hung up again.

After three times, Noah texted her: [Who was that just now? That definitely wasn't Dad!]

Vera glanced at the message and stood up with her phone, saying to Patrick, "Honey, it's too cold outside. I'm

going back in."

Patrick watched Vera's retreating figure, deep in thought.

Vera went back inside and randomly entered a guest room. She called Noah back.

Noah immediately asked, "Vera, are you dating someone? Why are you with a guy so late? Are you living

together?"

"I was at a class reunion. You called, and a classmate calledto eat."

Noah didn't believe her and said, "I'll call Randall and ask."

Vera was shocked. "How do you have Randall's number?"

"| saved it before going abroad, in case you got tricked at school."

Vera was stunned. She hung up and

"Noah?" Randall was as shocked as Vera when he got the call.

Noah directly asked, "Randall, are you at a class reunion with my sister?"

Randall didn't understand. "No, I'm at home."

Vera ran up to Randall, gesturing for him to hang up.

Noah, outside his classroom, called

Randall, "Is Vera dating someone? |

"Even you don't know my sister is dating?" Noah thought Randall was shocked that someone as violent as Vera

could be dating.
