Chapter 385 Scare Him a Little

Patrick turned around, put his arm around Vera's shoulder, and ended the call with Shawn. He sat down with her and whispered, "Just pretend you didn't see them." Vera nodded, even though she didn't get why. She played along.

Later, Jeffrey spotted Vera while walking.

He quickly took Emily on a detour. Emily, feeling unwell and there for a check-up, was confused about the longer route since the doctor's office was straight ahead. Vera whispered to Patrick, "Honey, whose baby do you think she's carrying?"

Patrick looked at her curious eyes and said, "It's none of our business. Don't pry."

Vera pouted. "I'm curious. Could it be Dennis's baby? Nah, she's not blind. Maybe the driver's? But they seem distant. She can't be Dennis's daughter-in-law." Vera's mind was spinning.

Patrick let her lean on his shoulder and chuckled, "Overthinking can cause hair loss."

Vera joked, "Are you saying Shawn is overthinking?"

Shawn arrived a bit later and heard Vera's words.

He asked, confused, "Vera, how am I overthinking?"

Vera quickly covered her mouth. "Patrick and I were just praising your wisdom."
