Chapter 247 Afraid of Scaring Patrick

"Glen has restricted Randall's freedom, and he might even..."

Molly explained everything she did and the reasons behind it to Ellie and Timothy.

Vera realized that Patrick was angry because she had made an enemy, and he was worried about her safety. Then she said, "I can fight, Molly can run, and Randall can take a beating.
