The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 553 Introducing a Match

"Shawn, people gotta stay on their toes. | ain't worried about Molly messing with Abby, I'm worried she'll come

after you one day." Shawn shot back, "No way, man!"

Sebastian chimed in, "Dude, they even snatched Teddy. What won't they do?"

Sebastian eyed Shawn, trying to push his luck, "Just let Molly marry me. Problem solved, right?"

Shawn wasn't buying it. He knew Sebastian just wanted him to agree to marry off Molly. "Nah, she's not getting

hitched that early."

Sebastian paused. "Shawn, has Molly ever lied to you?"

Shawn thought back and stubbornly said, "Nope."

Sebastian wasn't buying it. He knew more than a few times she had.

Shawn could see Sebastian's doubt. He said firmly, "Even if she did lie, I'm willing to be fooled.."

Sometimes, Molly would throw fits like this in front of him.

It was getting late, and Sebastian couldn't hang at the Olteran Mansion much longer. As he got up to leave, he

told Shawn, "If Molly acts up again, just hitup." Shawn scoffed, "What's the point? Patrick's got it covered."

Eavesdropping, Molly felt a pang of anger. Sure, it was true, but did Shawn have to be so blunt?

Sebastian had no comeback. He didn't want to argue with Shawn, so he stayed quiet.

As Sebastian left, Molly peeked out from behind a pillar and sauntered over, "Shawn, is Sebastian gone?"

"He couldn't keep up with me, so he bailed," Shawn said proudly.

Shawn turned to Molly, squinting, "Did you take Teddy to a fight today?"

Molly replied, "Shawn, would you be upset if | took Teddy out to explore?"

Shawn immediately raised his cane, making Molly jump.

Molly quickly backed up to the steps, keeping her distance.

"It was Vera who took Teddy, not me," Molly insisted.

Up on the third floor.

Vera handed Theodore to Patrick. "Clean him up, feed him, and then take him out."

Patrick looked at Theodore in Vera's arms. Theodore, in his light blue outfit, looked up with chubby cheeks,

waving and smiling.

Patrick took Theodore, getting Vera's drift.

Handing over Theodore meant they had salone ttonight.

"Not gonna argue?" Patrick asked.

Vera replied, "From past experience, arguing's useless. Can't dodge what's coming."

She had learned the hard way.

Patrick, holding Theodore, turned to leave and bumped into Shawn coming back to the bedroom.

Shawn looked at Theodore in Patrick's arms, then at Patrick. "What's up?"

Patrick stepped forward and handed Theodore to Shawn. "You get srest."

Shawn was speechless. "When did | sign up to babysit Theodore for you?"

Teddy made a little noise in Shawn's arms, looking up at him all happy and stuff.

Shawn looked down at Teddy, "Why you grinning, kid? Your mom took you to a brawl, and your dad ditched you

with your grandpa. What's there to be so happy about?" Teddy, seeing Shawn all worked up, got even more

excited and started babbling back.

Shawn had no choice but to take the little guy back to his room, grumbling the whole way. The butler watched

Shawn's back, feeling kinda happy for him.

Shawn was clearly complaining, but you could hear the joy in his voice.

Randall went back and chatted with Susan. Susan sighed, feeling a bit lonely. "Randall, if | were there, I'd totally

hold Teddy and let Vera handle the fight." Susan then asked, "Randall, why didn't Patrick punish you this time?"

Randall thought about it, leaning back in his chair. Yeah, why didn't Patrick step in when he paid the fine this

time?

That night, Randall took a bath and sat by the window, still trying to figure out Patrick's gplan.

Abby got sentenced, and Molly found out when she was already locked up.

Their goal was met, and they had a few days of peace.

The Olteran family enjoyed squiet time.

Noah cback to the country, and Patrick took Vera and Theodore to visit the Linister family.

Randall stayed hat first, but Cindy, not knowing what Randall was up to, started nagging him to be more

ambitious. "Randall, if you don't step up, you won't even get a wife. Who'd want to marry their daughter to a guy

with no job and no drive? Look at Sebastian, he's got a job and ambition, and it's still tough for him to marry

Molly. You can't be so down and out. Go to the company with Patrick and learn something."

Eventually, Randall wasn't hmuch either.

So, it was just Molly hanging around with Shawn.

Shawn was pretty happy until something went down, and the Olteran family was in chaos!

This time, Shawn personally called Sebastian, "Didn't you want to marry Molly? Cget her! Now!"

At the Linister family, Patrick and Vera were playing with Theodore and chatting when Patrick's phone rang. It

was the butler from home, "Mr. Olteran, you and Mrs. Olteran need to cback quick. Something happened."

Patrick and Vera, holding Theodore, rushed back without delay.

"Shawn, don't be mad. | didn't mean anything by it. I just watched a TV show that said we should pay attention

to the emotional needs of the elderly. | thought of Shawn. With Savannah not around and Dad always on his

phone, | thought of..." Molly said.

Vera, holding Theodore, cut her off in shock, "You wanna set Shawn up with someone?"

Shawn, red-faced with anger, shouted, "Get out! Where's Sebastian? Didn't he want to marry Molly? | don't want

any gifts, just take her away now!"
