The CEO's Mischievous Little Bride by Whispering Willow

Chapter 176 Patrick Investigates the Chase Family

Vera had been in a daze just moments ago, and they were about to truly have sex. Now, however, there was no trace of desire in her eyes. On the contrary, it was he who would have to take another cold shower. Suppressing his desire, Patrick said, "Vera, it's getting cold, and too many cold showers aren't good for me." "It's not that, darling! I just thought of Molly."

Vera's mind suddenly flashed to Mia, who loved making dirty jokes. She remembered that time at Shadow Syndicate United, when Mia had said, "Your husband grabbed me and called me 'Molly,' and he kept chasing me. It scared me to death. Don't tell him I was there, okay?"

Mia's words were still fresh in her mind. Patrick had never met her friends, so how could he know Mia? Even if he did, why would he call her "Molly"?

Considering that Patrick had been away for a few days and then returned, along with what he had just said to her, Vera realized that Patrick might have mistaken Mia for his sister and had gone out searching for her for days. Patrick reached out and turned on the bedside lamp, looking down at the nearly naked Vera beneath him. "Vera, what did you just say?"

Vera's eyes darted away, and she pushed Patrick off her. "Get off me first."

Patrick glanced down at their position, knowing he would soon need another shower. He rolled to the side, and Vera shyly wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, leaving only her innocent face exposed. Once again, she had evaded Patrick's advances.

"Don't wrap yourself up like that, as if I've bullied you," Patrick said, feeling aggrieved. She always snuggled into his arms, causing him to take many cold showers.

Vera felt embarrassed. Every time they were about to have sex, they were interrupted, or she would suddenly call it off. This time, they had even undressed, but she had thought of Molly.

"Honey, you should know, right? I went to..." Vera hesitated, reluctant to reveal her other identity.
