Chapter 222 Molly's Blessing

After settling Shawn, Patrick went out.

Vera was waiting for Patrick at the door. "Is Shawn asleep?"

Patrick nodded, raised his hand to put an arm around Vera's shoulder, and led her back to the bedroom.

Tom was taking care of Shawn, and Cindy was with Vincent.

Before Patrick and Vera went back, they checked on Randall, who was alone.

"Uncle Patrick, I'm not drunk. I know my limits," Randall responded to Patrick's rare concern.

On Randall's coming-of-age day, Patrick took him to a bar and placed a bottle of wine on the table, making him drink glass after glass.

When Randall was almost drunk, Patrick made him remember the feeling, telling him that whenever he felt that way again, he should stop drinking no matter what.

Patrick knew how cunning people could be at the drinking table, and he had told the newly adult Randall never to get drunk in front of others.

Randall understood Patrick's point and had never been drunk in front of others.

Molly stayed with the Chase family for a day, but on the day school started, she returned to the Olteran family.

This time, Molly was "sent" back by the Chase family.

After getting home, Molly told her family, "My grandpa's not well, and the doctor said he needs surgery. My grandma and dad are taking turns to care for him. My mom's company is getting busy as the year ends. And with the holidays coming up, my brother said there are always a lot of criminals around, stealing at train stations, selling stolen phones, and even kidnapping women and children. Some even break into others' homes. My brother is busy at the police station and can't look after me. They didn't feel safe leaving me alone at home, so they sent me back."

Shawn felt that the Chase family had done exactly what he wanted.

He said, "Now that you're back, don't wander around. Stay home for now. When the holidays come, if you want to go back, you can stay with the Chase family for a while. When is Max's surgery? When you have a day off, we'll all go to the hospital to see him."
